Only the VERY best make this list: the top 10 hair care products of 2010 pt.2

The holiday weekend was all about celebrating family, food and in my home, football! But in between meals, I managed to head over to my local Trade Secrets to take advantage of the Winter Sale where I purchased several of the hair care products on our Top 10 of ’10 list!

Last week, I crowned #10-#6 in Only the best make this list: top hair care products of 2010. Here are the top five hair care products (shampoos, conditioners or styling products) of the year!

# 5) Joico Daily Joiwhip Firm Mousse

Formerly known as I.C.E. WHIP Firm Hold Designing Foam, this firm hold styling mousse is a NaturallyCurly.com Best of the Best Winner in 2009! Fortified with Joico’s exclusive Quadramine Complex and enriched with kukinut oil, the JoiWhip leaves curls defined, weightless, soft and shiny.

# 4) TIGI Catwalk Curls Rock Curl Amplifier

This Curls Rock product amplifies the volume, definition, hold and manageability of unruly hair. The Catwalk Curls Rock Curl Amplifier has a great “salon” scent that makes you feel like you are sitting in your stylist’s chair every morning. For tighter and less frizzy curls, use the Amplifier on very wet hair and diffuse. Use in conjunction with the Curlesque Defining Shampoo, Hydrating Conditioner and Leave-In Conditioner.

# 3) Joico Ice Spiker Glue

The Joico Ice Spiker Glue’s fierce hold defies the likes of water and gravity. Stylists all over the country recommend this product because of the fact that once applied, your hair will not move, crust, flake or sag. For the strongest hold, pour water onto your hand followed by a drop of glue and style damp hair as desired. Want long-lasting styling from morning to night? Use Joico Ice Spiker Glue!

# 2) Sebastian Shaper Hairspray

It’s the #1 selling hairspray in America (and apparently Canadians love it, too)! Sebastian’s Shaper gives your hair hold while still allowing for natural movement. It’s not just any hairspray as the Shaper shapes hair during blow-drying and leaves your hair brushable. It’s secret: (a lack of) water. H2O, an ingredient common in many drugstore hairspray brands, tends to loosen internal bonds and cause hair to lose its style. The Sebastian Shaper recently celebrated its 25^th birthday by throwing a Hollywood bash for stylists and clients. Here’s to another 25 years, Shaper!

*drum roll, please*

# 1) Sebastian Shaper Plus Hairspray

Who ever said hairspray was oh-so 1999? It’s no surprise that the Shaper Plus is the most sold product of 2010. Whereas the Sebastian Shaper is ideal for fine hair, the Sebastian Shaper Plus is perfect for medium-to-thick hair textures. All you need is a light spray to eliminate fly-aways and frizz. Kiss crunchy, stiff and clumpy hair goodbye with this spray, and say hello to touchable and brushable locks! Even after application, hair can be combed without damage or tangles! Apply Shaper Plus to damp hair and quickly blow-dry with a round brush. Your hair is in good hands with Sebastian’s Shaper Plus Hairspray.
