Kate Winslet's Beautiful Hair!

I told you about her makeup yesterday, but did you take a close look at Kate Winslet's hair at Sunday nights SAG Awards? I love the side swept bangs and loose, low styled bun. I have actually worn that style a few times myself, and it is quite easy to do.

I wrote up a quick HOW TO over on Aging Beautiful. Check it out for a step by step approach, with even the products used by Frederic Fekkai stylist Renato Campora using Fekkai products.

Beautiful Makeup Search Top Ten Haircare Items of 2008.

As I am obsessed with my hair lately. (well... really, when am I not?) I thought I would start my top ten lists with my favorite haircare items. Here are my favorite haircare items, listed in no particular order.

1. Jonathan Product Finish Control High Shine Flexible Hairspray - Love this hair spray when I need some extra hold. This is perfect sprayed onto my brush and then swept through my hair, especially when pulling back into a ponytail.
2. Kronos Phyx Overnight Repair Masque - I use this a few times a week and it has done wonders for my hair. Check out my review of Phyx.
3. Sedu Revolution Hair Styler - This flat iron with perfectly rounded edges has redefined my hair. I am wearing it down more often now as I have become quickly in love with how this makes my hair look. Read my thoughts about this Sedu.
4. Cibu Pho Finish Hair Spray - My friend Christina told me I would love this, and she was right. This finishing hair spray is perfect for everyday hair. Click to read more about Pho Finish and other Cibu products I have tried.
5. L'Oreal Feria Hair Color - This has become my new favorite go to hair color, for touch-ups and beyond. My hair is left conditioned, shiny and it covers grays perfectly. Go to my review of Feria.
6. WEN Cleansing Conditioner - I have not gushed about this yet, but I plan to soon with some New Year , New You features. I am amazed at what this has done for my hair and scalp after using these cleansing conditioners for a few months now. It takes some getting used to, a shampoo and conditioner in one that does not lather. But the softness and fresh from the salon hair qaulity is worth it.
7. Sebastian Professional Whipped Creme - This is like a deep conditioner and hair styling cream in one. It smells divine and takes only a small amount to leave my hair shiny and easy to style.
8. Sephora Brand Paddle Brush - This brush smoothes my hair when blowing out so I get rid of the kinks and curls that come out here and there. It is easy to work with and perfect for straighter styles. 
9. Goody Ouchless Elastic Bands - There are always a few of these floating around the bottom of my handbag, in my car, on my desk and of course - in my hair quite often too. These elastics last and last and do not pull or tug on the hair. 
10. Paul Mitchell Hair Repair Treatment - I have depended on this treatment for years and years. From sitting with this on my head in the sun (when I was a teenager) to my weekly deep conditioning treatment, this Hair Repair has become a staple in my life.

Pho Finish, the hairspray, has quickly become a favorite of mine.

I love that I get strong hold when using Pho Finish without that dreaded strong hold feeling. It is so workable, that if I decide to pull my hair back or put it up during the day, it is not a problem. My hair remains brushable and easy to get into a new style.

Pho Finish on it's own is $14 for a full size, which is fantastic price point for a salon product, don't you think?
