One of my earliest memories was playing with my cousin’s makeup. I would hide in the bathroom and paint my face and put on layers of mascara and inevitably get in a lot of trouble. As a small child, I can remember being in tow when all of the females would make the visit to the Merrill Norman salon. I would watch in envy while their faces where painted in some hot pink mask. I have no idea what that pink stuff did, but I wanted my face covered in it.

As I progressed to a teenager, with a heavy hand on the eye shadow, my cousin took me to the department store for my first makeover. I have been hooked ever since! I literally cannot pass a makeup counter without trying or buying something. My two biggest obsessions are the longest lasting lipstick and the mascara which will give me long thick lashes. Skin care and anti-frizz hair products follow closely after.

I am a sucker for fancy packaging and the newest, best and so-called promised product that will turn me into one of the glamorous beauties in the latest fashion magazine. Unfortunately for me, most products don’t live up to the hype promised by the advertisement.

Therefore, I’ve decided, along with the help of some of my not so obsessive friends and family to post products that we tried so you can decide if you want to spend your money!

Simply Straight™ Ceramic Straightening Brush

I broke down and purchased the Simply Straight Hair Brush because my local CVS had them and I had a $10 off purchase coupon.  The website promotes it as a wonderful ceramic brush that straightens your hair easily without damaging or burning it. Perfect for hair of all types, this brush features ceramic-wrapped bristles that warm up quickly.

I washed my hair and let it air-dry so the natural curl and frizz where at its highest.  I ran the brush through my hair as instructed with the bristles facing out. The device is a little heavier than a curling iron. I have to admit it worked and in less than 10 minutes I had straight, frizz-free hair! 


So for less than $30 I have another great styling tool that worked for me.  You can get them online or at a variety of chain or discount stores.
