What is Keratin Complex?

I have heard about this “Keratin Complex treatment” from all my friends with long hair so I finally did my own research to find out what it’s all about. From what I understand it is basically a relaxer that is not damaging to the hair but in fact very healing providing natural keratin protein, which rebuilds, restores and rejuvenates all types of hair. The difference is most relaxers are typically for very coarse ethnic hair but the Keratin can be and is used on all types.

It was created in 2007 by renowned stylist and salon owner Peter Coppola and has since taken the market by storm.

Their revolutionary smoothing system infuses Keratin deep into the hair cuticle, eliminating up to ninety-five percent of frizz and curl and leaving the hair smooth, shiny and luxurious. Results typically last 3 to 5 months depending on hair type.

• Their client testimonials refer to Keratin Complex Smoothing Therapy as “life changing.” It rejuvenates and revitalizes the hair, giving it a softer, silkier feel that everyone raves about.

I am excited to try this product since I live in Florida with all the humidity, from my research it should cost anywhere from 2-300$ depending on the length of your hair

$24,000 haircut

( NATALIA KOLESNIKOVA, Associated Press )

A $24,000 haircut — perhaps the most expensive ever — was given to the Sultan of Brunei in August. The main cost was the airfare of London barber Ken Modestou to Southeast Asia. Modestou’s usual fee, when the customer comes to him, is about $45.

With even more twists, turns and flirtatious misbehavior than its shocking predecessor, this sexy sequel picks up two years after styleoholic maniacs invaded opportune Atlantans in a private Buckhead residence. Now a fresh crop of Orlando trendsetters on a funky and strange mission, will find themselves up against the same style-thirsty freaks. However, this time the party isn’t just looking for a quick bite- it needs the most psychotically-chic guests to continue its bloodline!

P.S. SEXY IS FOREVER

Flip your head over, then use a diffuser attachment to dry hair from roots to ends.

Step 3: Define

Sculpt your curls by wrapping two-inch-wide sections around a one-inch-wide curling iron. Hold for 10 seconds.

“Good Hair”  Chris Rocks new documentary

In the documentary “Good Hair,” comedian Chris Rock casts a critical and humorous eye on the Black hair-care business and explores the historical, political and social issues that play into the relationship between African-American women and their hair.

The film follows Rock as he journeys from New York to Atlanta, Dallas, Birmingham, Los Angeles and even India to find the finer points of the story. Along the way, he encounters hair-care professionals, beauty and barbershop patrons and celebrities including Raven Symoné, Ice-T, the Rev. Al Sharpton, Nia Long and Salt-N-Pepa, all of whom offer their hair-raising and candid perspectives.

Meanwhile, on the India trip, Rock visits a Hindu temple to witness a religious hair-sacrificing ceremony called “tonsuring.” A highly-prized commodity, human hair is one of the country’s largest exports, and each year more than 10 million Indians sacrifice hair to deity.

After the hair is shorn, it is processed and sold to international dealers — but what cut religious leaders and government officials receive is something audiences are left to ponder.
“They were very gracious to let us film at the temple, but we had to get out of their fast,” joked Rock when quizzed last week for more detail.

As the film points out, extensions are a big part of the business — it is estimated that hair weaves make up about 65 percent of the $9 billion revenue driven annually by Black hair care. And depending on the length, texture and type (synthetic or human), it can cost anywhere from $400 to more than $4,000.

On camera, video vixen Melyssa Ford, with a hint of embarrassment, admits she has spent around $18,000 in a year on weaves.

“That was the biggest shocker for me,” said Rock, while promoting the film at a Beverly Hills hotel.

“The money being spent is big and another thing we found out is the effect this can have on relationships. I mean it’s like dating somebody with a drug habit. Imagine if a woman was dating a guy and he spent almost $10,000 on baseball cards. It probably wouldn’t work.”
