I LOVE THIS LINE! I believe I have found my holy grail of hair care. I purchased my first bottle of the Oil Treatment in October of 2009 and have been using it ever since. Then last year, I was surfing SallyBeauty.com and noticed that One ‘N Only released a matching shampoo, conditioner and mask. I think I squealed in delight! I rushed over to my nearest Sally Beauty and asked the sales lady if they had it in stock yet, and they did not. *Sigh* I came back the following week and they were there! I raced home to try them out and have been hooked every since. The scent of these products is what captivated me first. The scent is a combination of honey, caramel, some herbal notes, crème brulee, exotic nuttiness, musk with a hint of warm vanilla. All scents I absolutely love! After the scent reeled me in, the way they made my hair look and feel kept me hooked. The shampoo instantly lathers even though it is sulfate free and leaves my hair with so much slip and very soft. The conditioner is of average thickness and rinses out clean and leaves your hair soft as well. The star is the Restorative Mask. Wow! It is super thick and creamy and leaves your hair detangled with incredible slip. After I use the conditioner, I apply the mask and put on a plastic cap and sit under my hooded dryer for about 15 minutes. After I rinse, I apply about a silver dollar amount (I have waist length hair, you would use less or more depending on the length and thickness of your hair) of the Oil Treatment to my hair concentrating on the ends and then style. All day my hair smells yummy and is as soft as cashmere. Yay!

The only disadvantage of these products are that I wish they came in a larger size such as a 33.8 oz liter for the shampoo and conditioner and 32 oz jar for the mask. I go through a bottle of the conditioner alone once a week. More product would make the Bronze Goddess happy!

I highly recommend these products for anyone with dry, damaged, color treated or chemically treated hair or those that just love soft, shiny, great smelling hair!

Love, Peace & Lip Gloss!

Summer Hair Care  

Sunday, June 27, 2010



With the dry summer air and the sun beaming down on our tresses, it is very important to deep condition your hair at least once a week.





I love to mix my own, all natural deep conditioning mask using coconut oil, olive oil, avocado oil and shea butter. Scientists at the Textile Research have proven that Coconut Oil, Avocado Oil and Olive oil penetrate the hair shaft to make it stronger (Cosmet. Sci 52, 169-184, 2001) . The study showed straight chain glycerides like coconut oil , avocado oil and olive oil easily penetrate into the hair. I also like to add shea butter to my mask to help smooth frizziness.



Avocado oil contains essential nutrients like proteins, vitamins A, D, E and B6, magnesium, copper, iron, amino acids and folic acid, all of which are extremely essential for hair growth and nourishment. It is also known to have natural sunscreen properties that can protect the hair and scalp from the damage caused by the harmful UVA and UVB rays of the sun.





Coconut oil can nourish each hair strand by penetrating deep into the hair shaft. It adds shine and softness to hair follicles and prevents hair breakage and dryness. It also adds strength and vitality to hair and is known to have anti-fungal and anti-bacterial properties.







Olive oil is rich in high levels of mono-unsaturated fatty acids and vitamin E. Both mono-unsaturated fatty acids and vitamin E are good for moisturizing, protecting and nourishing hair.




Shea butter can do wonders for hair that has been damaged by excessive coloring and blow-drying. Damaged and brittle hair can be conditioned and revitalized by its moisturizing properties as it soothes and softens dry hair.

I take equal parts of each ingredient, add a little cheapie conditioner, warm them in the microwave and mix them well in a bowl, then apply the mask to my hair from roots to ends and clip it up in a bun. I leave the mask on my hair overnight (or at least 4 hours) then shampoo twice followed by my normal conditioner. My hair is left soft, smooth and moisturized and ready for another week of styling! If you feel that your hair is weak and needs some protein, you can add one egg to the mixture.
