HOT PICKS [FRIDAY]

Let down your hair

June 1, 2007

You don’t have to be spinning gold to create the most precious mane this side of the Cambie Street Bridge – Matrix has just launched a new line of hair care products, Vavoom Gold Heat – thermal styling goods that use the element to protect hair from heat. This yummy formula distributes heat evenly across hair while sugar crystals coat strands to protect from heat damage, good news for beauty junkies who blow-dry or put an iron to their hair daily for an extra polished look.

The line includes Blow-In Volume Protective Lotion, Blow-In Control Protective Serum, Iron-In Control Protective Dry Mist, and our personal favourite - Iron-In Volume Protective Dry Mist – a light spray that leaves hair shiny, smooth, healthy-looking and full of volume. Talk about locks o’ gold!

So, I bet you’re thinking hair this glamorous would definitely be worth its weight in gold, but with prices starting as low as $14.95; flaxen strands have never been so affordable.

Find the Vavoom Gold Heat line at Zennkai Salon, 772 Granville Street. And with the salon’s recycling program, bring in an empty hair care product bottle for a Megabuck coupon redeemable at any Megahair Family spa or salon (Zennkai, Eccotique) to receive a dollar-off your purchase. Helping the environment has never felt or looked so good.
