Now that we are in the midst of the holiday frenzy, with all of its requisite social events and festivities, I thought that it would be useful to introduce you to a few haircare styling products to keep your holiday coiffed hair in sync with your busy schedule. Whether you want your hair to be perfectly straight or incredibly curly– here are a few tools and styling products to help guide your hair through this holiday season.

TOOLS (Left to Right): John Frieda Full Volume Hair Dryer, John Frieda Full Volume Hair Dryer and Philip B. Hairbrush Cleaner.

John Frieda Full Volume Hair Dryer is a remarkably high quality hair dryer at a very affordable price point. Not only is this a great buy if you are looking to update your hair dryer, but it also makes a great holiday gift for anyone on your list in need of one that is high quality and efficient. Whether you are looking to straighten your hair, or really accentuate your curly tresses, this hair dryer delivers. More often than not, I rely on its diffuser attachment in order to perfect my curls without causing them to flatten or frizz– as is often the case if I use a hair dryer without a diffuser. It also includes two concentrator attachments to deliver targeted airflow. I cannot say how it is that they are able to create a hair dryer that imparts volume, bounce and shine to hair as it dries, but they did! 

Unlike many affordable hair dryer, that feel lightweight and flimsy, John Frieda Full Volume Hair Dryer does not, and in fact it has some weight and heft to it that announces its durability and quality, but without being too heavy to use easily and efficiently.

According to John Frieda,

John Frieda Full Volume Dryer has an Advanced Ionic Generator with Titanium Ceramic Coating for superior conditioning and shine. John Frieda Full Volume Dryers' true cold shot button to lock in curls, waves & style. Features two snap-on concentrators for custom targeted airflow. Made with Advanced Ionic Technology and Titanium Ceramic Coating, the Full Volume Dryer defends hair from heat damage and infuses hair with volume, bounce and shine as it dries.

John Frieda styling tools offer the perfect marriage of cutting-edge technology, sleek, modern design, and safe, long lasting results. Each innovative styler features exclusive ionic frizz-fighting technology and true ceramic heat with LCD temperature control and auto-shut off. Made with scratch resistant ceramic titanium plates and barrels, John Frieda's top of the line tools are the ultimate in professional heat styling.

Volume & Shine; Challenge the status quo with this high-performance dryer that blows volume, bounce and shine into your hair as it dries. It features 1875 watts of power, a lightweight AC motor, high-voltage advanced ionic generator and a true cold shot to set your style for hours! 3 heat and 2 speed settings adapt to all different hair types for stellar style. Choose what works best for you.

Ionic Technology: Your John Frieda® styling tool includes a high-voltage (advanced) ionic generator that generates up to 50% more ions than ions created from natural sources. The electronic ionizer generates negative ions, which neutralize positive ions in the atmosphere. This process flattens and seals the hair cuticle, reducing frizziness and flyaways, eliminating static electricity, and contributing to shine and manageability. 

Ceramic Technology: The ceramic coating on your John Frieda® styling tool is a fusion of titanium and ceramic that evenly distributes heat to gently style and protect hair from damaging hot spots. The titanium is a harder, more durable, heat-resistant metal able to withstand higher heat than aluminum or other metals.

John Frieda Full Volume Brush is a really effective brush that was created to be used with the John Frieda Full Volume Hair Dryer. It is perfect for creating big loose waves, or for blowing your hair straight. The vent holes distribute heat efficiently and cut down on dry time considerably, and the bristles are firm enough to be effective, but gentle enough not to scratch at the scalp.

Features:

Deep-shine silicone strips: create shine, smooth flyaway hair and help reduce frizz. Silicone lasts for the life of the product.

Tourmaline: 100% crushed gemstones release natural IONS for intense shine. IONS help flatten hair's cuticle layer, leaving hair looking shiny and reducing frizz.

Use with the John Frieda® Full Volume Dryer to increase benefits: Vent holes allow airflow from dryer to reach hair for faster drying and styling. Create soft waves or added volume.

To Create Added Volume or Body:

Step 1: Shampoo and condition with Full Repair™ Full Body Shampoo and Conditioner to weightlessly reverse the look and feel of hair damage and restore bounce.

Step 2: Towel-dry hair and create body with natural movement by applying Full Repair™ Protecting Root Lift Foam, concentrating your effort at the roots.

Step 3: Separate hair into sections and pin up hair you are not working on.

Step 4: Blow-dry with the John Frieda® Full Volume Dryer and create dramatic lift by using the John Frieda® Full Volume Large Thermal Round Brush on sections of hair. Using the concentrator nozzle attachment, blast hot air right on the roots. Full Repair™ stylers contain heat protectants to protect your hair from damage.
