What Is Finishing Spray?

There are two main types of finishing sprays in terms of beauty products. Both are liquid spray beauty products, but one is applied to the hair, and the other is applied to the face. Hair finishing sprays are the most common of these two types. Packaged in either a pump or aerosol bottle, they help hold the hair in place. Hair finishing sprays are fast drying and come in a variety of formulas from lightweight to super hold, though all versions typically have a lighter hold than gels, pomades and waxes.
There are numerous hair finishing sprays on the market. While their main purpose is to set a style and help keep it in place, finishing sprays often have added ingredients that provide other benefits to the hair. Most sprays are tailored to certain hair types or conditions. They may be used to help create shine and gloss for dull hair. Some finishing sprays do double duty by both setting the hair and adding volume and lift to the roots to combat flat-looking hair. For those with unruly or curly hair, they can also be used to decrease the amount of flyaway hairs and control frizz.
Finishing sprays generally have a stronger holding than traditional hairsprays. This extra strength means that the spray can often leave the hair feeling sticky or crunchy. Running a brush through the hair after the spray has dried can help alleviate this.

My recommendation is SPICE NEO Sprays. If you have curly hair, this is a must item!
Spice Neo Nuance Keep. This wax-in spray creates and keeps loose & airy tips! It allows you to keep soft curl by not being crispy, and gives hair body with subtle wax effect. White peach Fragrance. 7 types of fruits essences give amazing moisturizing.  You can make beautiful spice hair style with this hair care products.

The Benefit of Salon Products

A shampoo is just a shampoo. Or is it? All shampoos work the same way; they all clean your hair. Or do they? What is the difference between professional salon products and generic brands sold at your grocery store and Wal-Mart? Is there one? Some will say ‘No’, but yes, there is a difference.

Professional vs. Store Bought Hair Products

Have you ever gone to a salon and purchased a bottle of shampoo and conditioner, taken it home and tried the shampoo? The shampoo will typically lather up very quickly and will require a lot less. This is because the ingredients used in the professional products are typically of higher quality and have gentler surfactants (type of soap used in shampoo). Professional products want to give you an experience! The creators of the products want you to use their shampoo and feel luxurious, to notice the smell, and to see a difference in your final outcome. They want you to use their product and notice a difference. And in this process, the quality of ingredients used is higher than those sold in general hair care.

It use to be that professional products were the only ones that catered to curly hair, straight hair, damaged hair and ‘I need more volume’ hair. But now there are numerous generic brands that have been expanding their lines to cater to the different types of hair. You can even find shampoo for Blondes, Brunettes and even Red heads. But what is the quality of the bargain shampoo?

Professional Products Sold In Places Other Than Salons

You may have been shopping in your grocery store or Target and noticed professional products that are being sold on their shelves. These products have landed on the shelves due to what is called diversion. Diversion is when the product is sold through another source outside its intended channel for distribution. You may have read on the back of a bottle of professional shampoo, ‘Only guaranteed if sold in a salon.” If bought elsewhere, you as a consumers may be getting a product that has been tampered with. Also, a lot of these products are old. I’ve seen discontinued products that were sold in stores 3 years after the product had been discontinued. Hair products have a shelf life of about 1 year. Buying from these stores may save you a couple cents, but you have no idea what else you are putting on your hair. So buyer beware; it’s safer to buy professional salon products in a salon.

It’s Really Up To You

Deciding to use professional products over the generic product is clearly up to you and your checkbook. One way to see if you notice the difference is to buy a bottle of shampoo and conditional from a salon and use it for 3-4 weeks. Notice the way your hair feels and looks. Then go back to your generic brand and see if you notice the difference.  I am positive you will!

Clients ask me everyday what hair products are best for there hair to give it volume,  lift, hold a curl, or not have frizz. The most important product you can use on your hair starts with your shampoo.  It is the foundation for healthy shiny hair. So make the investment in quality shampoo! I would recommend Arimino hair shampoo. This is one of the best Japan hair products.

How to take care of your damaged hair

Do you have unmanageable damaged hair? This article will tell you how to tame and take care of your damaged hair.

1. Take a deep breath. Think positive and stay confident. Keep in mind that this process of restoring your hair might take a while, but you are off to a great start, and when you're finished, the results will be beautiful!
2. Wash your hair well. Wash your hair every other day. Always use more conditioner than shampoo. Put the shampoo in as you normally do, but remember, not that much, and don't pile it on top of your head as this can cause damage. Then, put the conditioner in, mainly focus on the ends and towards the center of the hair if you have straight or wavy hair. If you have curly hair apply the conditioner to the whole length. Scrub your scalp well with your fingertips. The top of the hair is the part you need to be the least worried about.
3. Leave the conditioner in for 5-15 minutes. You can leave the water on, just don't let it touch your hair for that time. During the wait, you can shave, listen to the radio, or wash your body. After the approximate time is over, brush through your hair with the conditioner in. Then thoroughly rinse the conditioner out.
4. Bend down and let your hair dangle upside down and put a towel over your hair and gently squeeze or scrunch out the excessive water. Drying too roughly can damage the hair. After you towel dry it, put in a nickel sized amount of anti-frizz/anti-dry products. (Use more for curly or kinky hair.) If you don't have any products for frizz or dryness, just put a little bit of conditioner in your hair. If you have oily or greasy hair, just skip that step, or use a dime sized amount instead.
5. Brush your hair with a comb, or a brush with gentle bristles. If you have naturally curly or wavy hair, use mousse, or styling gel while it's wet. Be gentle and work on tangles instead of ripping through them. If you took your shower in the morning, putting it into a ponytail or braid is a good option. If you're getting ready to go to bed, put it up in some fashion so moving in your sleep doesn't cause damage. Braids and a sleep cap can be helpful to preserve the hair, or a high ponytail.
6. Let your hair naturally air dry.
7. Repeat these steps for everyday that you shower, and you should start to see an improvement in your damaged hair.
8. Use marbling hair treatments of Arimino hair care products. your hair. The protein will help rebuild the hair's natural keratin and other deep treatments help the hair retain moisture, especially if your hair is coarse or curly.
9. Avoid using chemicals and heat on your hair. Likely, this is how your hair got damaged in the first place. Avoid too much hair dye, chemical relaxers or straighteners. Look into natural hair dyes like henna for red hair, indigo for black hair, and lemon juice or other citrus for some natural lightening.
   • When you go swimming saturate your hair with conditioner before hand, and cleanse well afterward. A swim cap will also help.
10. Protect your hair from the sun. You can use a hat or a bandanna while you're outside for long periods of time. Or you can apply a styling product with a sunscreen ingredient such as benzophenone.
11. Try not to let your hair get caught in things throughout the day and use friendly hair accessories that don't tangle easily in the hair.
12. Wear your hair in protective styles like rolls and braids so that it becomes less tangled and is exposed less to the elements. Make use of hats if you're having a particularly bad hair day, and if you just can't stand your damaged hair, you can acquire a natural looking wig.

How to tame fuzzy flyaways

Do you suffer from the fuzzies? Do you get lots of fine flyaway hair creating that halo effect around your hair?
I do. Mine is a mix of new hair poking through, damaged hair from straightening irons and general humidity affected fuzziness from my curly hair. I usually notice it most when I go to the effort of straightening my hair, leave the house looking fab but in the hurried journey I arrive looking like I just fell out of bed.
So how do you tame flyaway hair?
I like to take a diversified approach and attack from all directions to defeat my wilful hair.
First – You have to target the source

• Use a moisturising shampoo and conditioner that is right for your hair type. Usually dry or coarse hair will suffer more from flyaways, so consider adding a weekly hair treatment to nurture your hair into a softer shape. Use Japanese hair products.

Second – Protect from heat damage

• Repeat after me – I will never ever use a straightener without heat protectant products! Please always use a product designed to protect your hair from heat damage when using irons and when blowdrying your hair too. Use SPICE NEO Serum Mist Curl Deco

Third – Smooth it into submission

• Smooth your hair with a couple of drops of a gloss serum to smooth and add shine to your finished style.

Best Hairspray for Fine and Straight Hair

Those of us cursed with fine hair have a hard time finding hairsprays that hold our hairstyles for more than an hour. Many hairsprays that claim to be flexible or long-lasting take our hair from styled to flat in no time at all due to the weight of the product or the spray's inability to protect our hair from outside elements such as humidity.

I spent years trying to find a hairspray that could live up to its hype, and I've come across a hairspray that every girl with straight, fine hair should have in her arsenal of styling products.

1.Spice Neo Hair Spray

  Spice Neo's Hairspray is the only hairspray that does what other brands claim to do. this is a very fine, lightweight spray that lasts all day long. This hairspray will keep curly hair straight, and straight hair curly in high humidity. It's not sticky but still manages to hold styles perfectly. I can't say enough good things about this product.

My hair is fine and very straight. I put Arimino's hair sprays to the test by making waves and curls with a curling iron by very lightly spraying each section of hair before curling it (waiting until it dried, of course), and then gave it a light spraying at the end.

I spent the rest of the day outside in close to 100% humidity and didn't really think about my hair at all. When I arrived home and glanced in the mirror, I was shocked to see that 90% of my curls had lasted through the heat and humidity. In fact, my hair looked better than it did earlier in the morning. It's been my favorite hairspray ever since, and I tell everyone about it.

I buy this brand at my local hair salon.  it's a great product to have on-hand for tough styles on my fine hair. It smells great! I would say Japanese hair spray is the best!

Secrets to Getting Super Straight Hair

I was born with stick-straight hair so it doesn't take much more than a blow dryer and a brush to tame my mane. But my best friend was born with amazing curly hair and to get her hair straight involves such tedious drying, brushing and flat-iron that she's developed amazing biceps that she claimed she got from simply straightening her hair.

So how to get your hair straight and sleek? Here are some tips:

Wash hair first. You'll get better results if you don't start with already dried hair.
Towel-dry hair so it's barely damp. This cuts down on drying time. And apply special leave-in such as, Marbling hair ( Caretrico Marbling Care Essence Type-S) This one works for straight hair.

If you have wavy hair, I would recommend Caretrico Marbling Care Essence Type-H.
These two are special home care products.

Dry hair with a paddle brush pointing the nozzle downward. You want to avoid adding body to hair, so don't "fluff" as you dry. You're aiming for stick straight hair. You want it to hang like a curtain.
Follow with a flat iron. Start at the hair closest to the nape of the neck, ironing in small sections.
Finish by running a shine serum through hair. Skip this step

Try Spice Neo Wax type Spray

 Recently, I became reacquainted with a spray wax styling product, and I'd forgotten how easy they are to use. Just like their matte counterparts, these spray waxes provide that laid-back choppy look, but with a slightly shiny finish. Best of all, they're lightweight.

Try SPICE NEO Spray Freeze Keep or SPICE NEO Spray Nuance Keep ( My favorite spray wax and best works for curly hair by  iron.)
both of which provide hold and texture to all hair types and lengths.  "It's really about having the next-day sexy/messy look, with out looking all dry and greasy." To find out six different ways you can use this multifunctional product, just read more.

Tips for using a spray wax:

1. On dry hair: Simply spray all over the hair and tousle liberally with your fingers to create body. No brushing allowed. Build up texture and volume by working in layers; spray, tousle, let dry, and repeat if needed.
2. For a refined look: After blow-drying hair using a round brush, spray on the wax. Rake a wide-tooth comb through the hair to give a subtle separation, control, and hold to your strands.
3. On damp hair: For extra volume, texture, and separation, apply a spray wax to damp hair and blow-dry.
4. To restyle the hair: Treat a spray wax as a restyling tool. For a quick pick-me-up after work, spray the wax spray on the ends of your hair and twist or flip out. Then, head out the door for happy hour.
5. With a flat iron: For a smooth finish and to tame frizz, use your spray wax when straightening your hair.
6. For a fun, Summery look: Spray on wax, braid the hair, and let air dry. When the braids are taken out, you'll have pretty subtle waves with a satiny-matte finish.

How to make coarse and curly hair soft

Any woman with coarse, curly hair will tell you it’s one of the hardest hair types to control. Even harder is to find a stylist who can shape it properly. But thanks to innovations in new products and techniques it is possible to soften coarse, curly hair.
For those desperate for an immediate fix, leave-in conditioner, deep conditioning masks, and hair oils are all available to fight frizz and create silkiness. When trying different shampoos and conditioners (to find one that works for you), it’s essential to look for moisturizing or damage repair elements—like the professional salon products

Arimino's product lines. Deep conditioning masks, though having a longer set-in time (usually overnight), are used 2 to 4 times a month and work even better in restoring softness to coarse, curly hair.  The Spice Neo Hair Gloss used alone can create the illusion of changing coarse hair’s texture to shiny and manageable, especially when paired with flat-ironing. Another alternative for women with very dry hair and very dry ends is hair oil. Olive oils (extra-virgin to reduce the foodsy smell) are often mixed with other more pleasant scents and applied only to the last inch to couple inches of hair. 

 

Coarse, curly hair can seem difficult to soften and impossible to style but by experimenting with what works for you, you can achieve soft, healthy hair too.

What Is Hair Serum?

Hair serum is a kind of hair product that is generally used on curly or frizzy hair to give it a smoother look. It is also used to make thick hair more manageable. Hair serum is especially useful for people who have damaged or dry hair, because it can help to smooth the dry or damaged hair follicles. By smoothing the follicles, hair is easier to style and take care of throughout the day. There are a number of companies that sell hair care products that include a serum in their lines.

One of the reasons that people with curly hair benefit from using hair serum is that, when curls are treated with the serum, they are more likely to maintain their shape. Furthermore, curly hair is prone to frizziness, especially in humid weather. Hair serum reduces frizziness in all types of hair, including curly hair. In general, hair serum should be applied to curly hair after the hair has been washed and conditioned. Some hair serum is intended for application to hair that is soaking wet. Other brands indicate that the serum should be applied after the hair has been dried with a towel

Personally, I love SPICE NEO Serum Milk Gloss. 

It contains Cupuassu Seed and Shea Butter aid the Milk in repairing damaged hair, resulting in smooth shiny finishes. Best used on all hair types and textures. This is absolutely one of the best hair care products.

If your hair is...wavy

1. In the shower: If your hair is thick, use the shampoo and conditioner recommended for curly hair. If it's fine, volumizing formulas—Like Arimino Caretrico Shampoo Type S and Arimino Caretrico Treatment Type S (Conditioner). These are hair salon products.

2. When hair is still damp: Wavy hair tends to be dry, so the outer layers can look fuzzy; a styling cream like SPICE NEO Natural Cream  controls flyaways. 


3. Just before you leave the house: To block humidity (a preemptive strike against frizz), apply a SPICE NEO Serum Nuance. This Milk contains a Fresh Keratin, which provides elasticity repair in the hair. Best used on all lengths of hair, Nuance Serum helps to restore wave and curl in dry damaged hair. This is the best serum for curly hair.

How to Create Soft, Loose Waves (Not the Beachy Look)

Look at this unique spray. So lovely!

Beachy waves are out, as are shiny perfect curls. Instead, loose, sexy curls are in. Find out how to get them with these step-by-step instructions.

1. Prep hair with a styling spray (I love Peace Chocolate Spray, which works wonders on curly and wavy style).
2. Part hair down the center.
3. Blow dry hair, scrunching hair as you go. If you have curly hair, don't scrunch, instead dry straight with a paddle brush.
4. When hair is about 90 percent dry, separate hair as you would to create two pigtails. Secure pigtails with pony tail holders.
5. Take one side and twist hair in one direction. Hair will naturally twist itself into a bun. Secure at ear level with a ponytail holder. You can keep hair in place with bobby pins.
6. Repeat on the other side, so you have two buns at ear level.
7. Blast the buns and your whole head with the dryer for about 5-10 minutes or until hair seems dry.
8. Leave hair in buns for 10-20 minutes to set. Just before you leave, take hair out of buns and finger comb curls. (Do not brush out). You can apply a SPICE NEO Natural Cream as well to separate the waves and keep them from looking "too perfect."
9. Spritz hairspray and you're done!

Best Special Occasion Hair Styles for Curly Hair

Whether you have tight corkscrew curls or soft, loose curls, there are several glam styles for curly hair. Before you try these different hairstyles, the most important thing you can do to go to your favorite stylist and have them shape your curly hair to best suit the shape of your face. Curly hair styles can flatter and enhance your natural face angles if cut properly, otherwise you run the risk of being a mop head or the dreaded mushroom head.

Medium to long layers styles for curly hair are the best way to balance the volume and body of your curls that frame your face. Using hair styling wax for girls, such as Spice NEO Natural Cream will help tame the frizzies and provide a glossy shine to your natural curls. This texture wax is the perfect option to consider when you are thinking of leaving your curls down. Create a deep side part and either use a sparkly headband or clip to keep your curls back from your face.

When pulling your curls back in a ponytail or a half-up, half-down look, keep it sleek by using a gel or a mousse to define your curls and keep them separate. For more bohemian styles for curly hair, use a hair diffuser to relax the curls close to your scalp and leave the curls only past your ears or the nape of your neck. This slightly more relaxed beachy curly hairstyle is perfect for an evening out.

For more fun and flirty styles for curly hair, put in small braids or twists at the front of your hair and pin them to the back of your head. Pull loose tendrils out on either side of your face to soften the look and the curls will help frame your face. The best hair styles for curly hair work with your natural curl, giving your face a vibrant and lively look.

How to Care for Curly Hair

If you have curly hair, chances are your hair tends to be dry, coarse and brittle. It also tends to frizz up, doesn't it? Here, we show you how to care for your curly hair.

Products Every Curly-Haired Girl Needs

Unlike your limp-tressed sisters who should stay away from products that weigh down their hair, you need a few products to keep frizz and dryness in check:

•   Caretrico shampoo A new craze in shampooing curly hair is the "No Poo" movement. This means not shampooing hair but instead conditioning it daily. My curly-haired friends also swear by caretrico shampoos. If you must you a shampoo, creamy shampoos are good! 
• Caretrico conditioners You simply cannot over-condition frizzy hair. You need a heavy conditioner for use every time you wash your hair, and a deep conditioner for use once a week.
• Spice Styling Spray Enhance your curls with a spray created for any kind of hairstyle. Rub it in and let hair air dry.
• Caretrico After Treatment Lotion Warm up a couple drops of this in your hands and palm over dry, frizzy curls. This will solve your frizz problems.

Curly Hair Styling Tips

Curly hair will always be “in” regardless any hairstyle trend. Despite its natural beauty, curly hair is usually seen as a burden as it is well known the fact that this is the most difficult to manage of all hair types. However, with just a few curly hair styling tips you'll look sexy and elegant without too much stress. It's time for you to embrace your natural curls and take advantage of their uniqueness and beauty.

When it comes to curly hairstyles, it is important to first learn how to take care of curly hair as this type of hair "molds" almost by itself very easily. There are some specific rules to follow, rules that can only be applied on this type of hair.

Remember that it is important not to brush curly hair and use a wide-tooth comb to gently detangle the hair. After you wash it, you can even style it using just your fingers. And I strongly recommend to apply Arimino Spice Water. This mist spray is for Volume Up and a weightless spray that is ideal for soft and voluminous styles. This  ideal product to give movement to all types while leaving the hair silky to the touch. It is totally true that curly hair needs extra attention especially when brushing it as it can easily break. In order to avoid awful mornings with super-wild hair, you should begin the care routine in the moment you start washing your curly hair. Use Caretrico Grace Blue shampoos and conditioners that are also nourishing as we want to avoid that curly hair becoming dry. If you can, avoid blow drying curly hair. An appropriate hair care will now allow you to proceed to a better styling. Even if it's sounds rather unbelievable, curly hair is versatile, and you can play with in order to get different looks. You just need imagination, some styling skills, and an anti-frizz product that will help you handle the curls easier.

CURLY HAIR

Caring for curly hair is little tougher than caring for straight hair. It is tough to make a hairstyle on curly hair, make them look shiny every time. You need to care for your curly locks and no hairstyle would be difficult or impossible for you.

Combing your hair will cause frizz. Use fingers to comb your hair and untangle your curly locks.

It is recommended to get a layered cut. When curly hairs are in one length, the weight pulls and flattens the curls. Do not get very short layer cut, or your curls may stuck up and out.
Do not control your curls too much.

Avoid brushing your curls or touching them.

Curly hairs are very dry. Use Caretrico Moist Shampoo and Cretrico Care Essence to prevent loss and breakage of hair. This will also seal and smoothen the surface of hair.

Avoid towel drying your hair and pat hair dry your hair.
