Beach Necessities

So since I've been spending this past week at the beach, I decided a beach-themed post was a must! I don't know about you, but the last thing I feel like doing at the beach is dealing with my usual routine of blowdryers, straighteners and curlers. For me, a week at the beach not only means a break for my mind and body, but also for my hair! Since my hair tends to be the first thing people notice about me (lets be real, it's pretty hard to miss the bright red color) I am a total perfectionist when it comes to hair style. While I usually worship at the alter of my various hair tools and tamers, the constant fussing can take a tole on the overall health of my hair. Whenever I retreat to the beach I make a promise to myself that the only heat my hair will have to endure is the sunshine. Since I am unfortunately not blessed with frizz-proof hair (sigh), and I absolutely refuse to parade around resembling a ChiaPet, I turn my attention to hair products. Over the years I have tried almost everything to tame the frizz that accompanies my naturally wavy hair. Some products have worked better than others, but Bumble & Bumble's surf line tops them all! I am a slave for their Surf Foam Wash Shampoo, Surf Creme Rinse Conditioner, and most of all, their Surf Spray! I swear the entire line is sent from the hair gods to us poor frizz-prone mortals. The only thing the hair gods fell short on was their competitive pricing. I admit, the prices are pretty steep, but for those of us who know the pain of a SERIOUSLY painful hair day, it's worth the splurge. The line gives your hair that beachy texture that usually requires the salty ocean air, and an hour of sitting with a wet head, facing into the wind. I wouldn't last a day on my "hair cleanse" if it were not for these B&B lifesavers! If you order directly from their website you can choose a handful of free samples to be shipped with your order (a clever little marketing tool, I must say, because they've gotten me hooked on a few of their other little hair miracles). They also come in these cute little travel sizes if your journey to the beach is more than a car-ride away.
