Optimum Care Heat Protection Polisher Giveaway!

It's been much too long since I hosted a giveaway. This time I'm featuring a product from Soft Sheen Carson's new Optimum Care salon collection. I was first introduced to these new products at the Bronner Brother's Hair Show in Atlanta. I sat in their section mesmerized as the stylist completed the finishing touches on a model who'd just received a relaxer on her virgin tresses. When onlookers, such as myself, were finally granted permission to touch her hair, I honestly could not believe how soft, and silky her strands felt. Others felt her hair and moved on, I (being the crazy hair loon that I am) went back for seconds.

One of the products used to preserve the integrity of the model's hair was the Heat Protection Polisher that I'm giving away today. I made a connection with one of the folks from Soft Sheen Carson who graciously offered to host a giveaway for you lovely ladies. The Heat Protection Polisher claims to provide a "lightweight gloss that helps protect the hair from heat styling (while) maintaining smooth styles, even in moisture & all day humidity. Since I'm deep into a stretch, I've turned to heat a few times to help keep my textures manageable. After using this product, I can say that their claim of light-weightness does hold true. I also like the fact that product contains coconut oil in the ingredients which will offer up some protein protection to the hair during the heat styling process.

I know you want to get your hands on some of this so here are the details on how to enter:

• Send an email to relaxedhairhealth@gmail.com with the subject: Optimum Heat Protector Giveaway
• Follow the blog!

I'll randomly select a winner and notify the lucky person via email on Monday January 30, 2012. This giveaway is open to U.S. and International participants. That's all. Two simple actions will get you one step closer to having your very own bottle of the New Soft Sheen Carson product.

If you missed it, check out the footage I shot of the Bronner Brothers hair show. You'll see what I mean regarding the SoftSheen Carson styling booth at 3:11 in the video.

Mizani D'Tangle Leave-In Milk Giveaway!

Who's ready for another giveaway?! I know I am. I've somehow amassed a small arsenal of products from my own giveaway winnings, companies sending me products as gifts, etc. I figured that instead of being a hair product glutton, I would share generously of my bounty. This round I'm featuring a moisturizing leave-in detangler from Mizani's professional line.



Although I haven't yet tried this product, I picked it as a giveaway item because I remember how disgustingly painful it can be to have to deal with stubborn tangles. So let's cover the rules of the give away shall we?

• Follow the blog!
• Send an email to relaxedhairhealth@gmail.com titled "Detangle Giveaway"
• Say a silent prayer for me that I will reach my hair length goals.
• Rub the belly of your puppy three times counter-clockwise while saying "detangle, detangle, detangle!"
• Ok, you don't have to do the last two but make sure to follow and send your email to enter!

p.s. This giveaway open to U.S. residents.

Winner will be announced via email on November 6, 2011. Good luck everyone!

Creme of Nature Argan Oil Line Giveaway!

The good people at Creme of Nature generously gifted me full size bottles of these amazing looking products. Instead of selfishly holding on to the products for my own personal use, I've decided to spread the love. So here's a breakdown of the products I'll be giving away to a few lucky readers. Oh, I should also mention that the products are new and unopened.

• CON Argan Oil Treatment-Helps repair dry hair, strengthens & prevents breakage.

When a winner is selected, he/she will have a choice of which product he/she would like to receive of what's available. The final winner will receive the remaining product. Winners will be selected randomly. Once you have entered the giveaway, (by following and sending the email) you are automatically entered for subsequent drawings.

Winner Announcement: Gleau 2 ounce bottle Giveaway!

Gleau Nourishing Oils Blend Giveway!

I'm getting that itch again to launch another product giveaway. In the past, I've conducted a couple of Burt's Bees contests which were really popular the readers. This time, I thought I'd try something new. A product that is near and dear to my heart. Ladies this giveaway, you'll get a chance to receive a 2 oz bottle of Gleau Nourishing Oil Blend! Yes, that's right. I'll contact the winner on August 1 and anyone who send me an email to relaxedhairhealth@gmail.com with the title "Gleau giveway" will get a chance to enter. Please send in your emails by Saturday July 31, 2010, midnight Eastern.

For those of you who aren't familiar with the fantasticness that is Gleau, this oil blend is one of the few all natural argan oil products on the market. If you look closely at some of the popular argan oil products on the market, you'll find that most contain several types silicones in the mix. Not to mention that most of them are much more costly and don't include other beneficial oils like ceramide containing wheat germ, strand penetrating coconut or scalp healthy oils like jojoba. You've got to get your hands on this product and now is your chance!

Good luck everyone!

Fantastic Product!, June 24, 2010 By J. Fulton - See all my reviews Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?) This review is from: Gleau Nourishing Hair Oil Blend (Misc.) Light feel and smell on the hair. Great moisturizer. Take it from somebody who lives in the desert. Help other customers find the most helpful reviews Was this review helpful to you? Report this | Permalink Comment This one's a keeper!!, May 19, 2010 By CarlaDenise - See all my reviews This review is from: Gleau Nourishing Hair Oil Blend (Misc.) This oil doesn't weigh my hair down, I don't have greasy product build-up, the shine is ridiculous, and my hair (I promise) has never felt as soft as it does when I seal with it. Even more, a little goes a very long way with this product. It's literally a healthy, moisturizing, nourishing, "Gleau" in a bottle! I know what works for some may not work for others, but I think this one is worth a shot and I strongly recommend it.

This oil is light and easy to spread. The smell is really light because I can not detect a distinct scent which works for me. I appreciate all the great oils in this product. Rather than having to buy all of these oils separately they are all in one convenient product. It makes my hair really soft too. This will be a repurchase.

As someone with thin, fine relaxed hair, I immediately appreciated the lightness of this product. I apply only once a week at night. Any other application weighs my hair down. This product completely absorbs into the hair. I also use it in my "pre-poo" deep conditioning. I would recommend this to anyone looking for weightless moisturization.

I first tried a sample of the Gleau Oil before it was even on sale on the market and really liked it. A little goes a long way. It's a very light oil (a combination of oils including Argan, almond, coconut), and it easy absorbs into my hair and does not weigh it down even when I use it daily. I find it has no scent. I personally don't like products that have a strong smell, so that's a big plus for me. Definitely a keeper. Help other customers find the most helpful reviews Was this review helpful to you?

After trying a free sample of Gleau I knew I had to go ahead and purchase it. I use it to seal in my moisturizer and it keeps my hair from feeling dry all day long. After using it just a few weeks, I've noticed a significant reduction in breakage and my hair feels softer too. A lot of products make promises but Gleau is the real thing!

Report this | Permalink Comment Wonderful product!!, April 9, 2010 By Nyiia Ricks "Dominica" (Phoenix, AZ) - See all my reviews This review is from: Gleau Nourishing Hair Oil Blend (Misc.) Hey girls! I became interested in really caring for my hair only about a month ago. I discovered Gleau oil from Nadege and since she has such beautiful relaxed hair I thought that if she's using this product it must be pretty good. I got the order in about 3 days and its one of the best moisturizers that I've ever used. I have dandruff issues and this really works as a great scalp oil and its makes my hair really soft to the touch as a daily moisturizer. I have below shoulder length relaxed hair and I'm really interested in growing it out. I really focus on putting it on my ends to keep them from splitting and I can already see a difference. I'm on my way to longer healthier RELAXED hair. Thanks Nadege! Help other customers find the most helpful reviews Was this review helpful to you?

I love using Gleau on my hair every day. Great texture and smell. Never leaves a greasy film on my hair. I absolutely love it best as a moisturize when my hair is flat ironed straight, as it maintains my hair as is---it doesn't weigh my hair down. Great price too! I hope the formula never changes....LOVE the ingredients Help other customers find the most helpful reviews Was this review helpful to you? Report this | Permalink Comment
