Kill Winter Hair: The Styling Arsenal

Winter: Majestic, magical and brutal on your hair. Taming your locks is tough enough without the added challenges of dryness and static. You have things to do, dammit!

No more tears. Cg is here for you. We've rounded up a few of our stylist recommended tundra-proof products to get you through the season.

Bumble&bumble Tonic Lotion
It's like a crisp gin and tonic for your noggin.Tonic's elixir of vitamins and tea tree oil helps smooth distressed hair and refreshes your scalp with tinglies.

Bumble&bumble Super Rich Conditioner
A luxurious and lightly scented conditioner delivers the healing powers of extra protein and moisture. This is a perfect solution for dry or chemically treated hair.

Bumble&bumble Deeep
This reviving leave in masque is to hair as spinach is to Popeye. It packs an extra punch of protien to revive thirsty and damaged hair. I'm talking to you, blondies!

Bumble&bumble Creme de Coco Tropical-Riche Masque
A sexy and generous masque that offers indulgent moisture. We highly recommend this treatment for wild or curly hair. Bonus: It smells good enough to eat. But don't.

 Really.

Stranger Than Fiction

Often we discover that our real lives are stranger than fiction.

The world of hair is no exception.

Technology often skirts the line between ingenious development and torture device. Here are a few of our favorite blasts-from-salons-past oddities that qualify for "Strange But True" gold stars. Is it a hair dryer? Jedi pilot gear? An Elephant Organ? A throne for a space queen? 

If these contraptions aren't weird enough for you, check out this retro Hellrasier wackiness.

Looks are Deceiving

Isn't it strange that hair on our heads is beautiful and full of power-- but hair on the wall or between your sheets is fuel for nightmares? That the same strands simply being relocated to the most mundane places shakes us from the routine and into the discomfort of a late night double feature picture show?

Hair on your head: beautiful.
Hair in your burger: poison.
Hair cascading down the stairs: horror.
 

Jessica Wohl wants to warp your world. The Midwestern artist transforms unassuming places into spooky shifting spaces by manipulating the mundane.  Her recent installations remind us that looks are deceiving, nothing is as it seems and anything could be breathing.

If I had a mustache...

If I had a moustache I would use it to tickle kitten faces,
teach it to bare knuckle box in itty bitty shorts,
and wax it with whisky into aerodynamic points so I'd break the sound barrier.

If I had a moustache I would carry a long skinny sword--
because that's what you do when you have whiskers,
and make walrus faces in the mirror until very late at night.

If I had a moustache I'd karate chop muskies with my bare hands,
build an igloo-animal-rescue-bomb shelter,
and give it a fancy name--

Like Preston. Or Emmanuel.  Or Jimi Hendrix. 

If I had a moustache it would be a veracious reader
and be first pick for my Pictionary team,
because I could depend on Jimi to always have my back--

or my face.
