Big Texas Hair

Several months ago, I had my hair done at a place called The Dry Bar in Highland Park. It's this fabulous concept of a blow out with the convenience of a manicure or pedicure. It's a chain, so there might be one near you. You can make appointments online (recommended) or just walk in. It's truly fabulous with adorable decor, and it's especially great if you have a fun event for which you're primping. Or even if you don't.

(FW Ladies, we don't have one, but we do have an other-branded blow dry spot opening soon near J. Rae's if it hasn't already. Cupcakes and a blow out. Way to be, Fort Worth!)

Anyway, they used some of the products from the Living Proof Full Thickening line on my hair, and I loved it. So, of course the next day I ran out to try some for myself.


I bought my can of Living Proof Full Thickening Mousse at Sephora. It's amazing. And I say that with all due respect to the word amazing, which is completely overused. It goes on while your hair is still wet from root to tip. I use quite a bit--maybe two egg sized dollops. You will feel it giving your hair texture in a kind of "oh my gosh my hair feels disgusting I'm gonna have to wash it again what was I thinking listening to that dumb blog" way, but when you blow it dry, it doesn't look like you have greasy product in your hair. I promise. And then it backcombs to high heaven.

This + hot rollers = Texas hair for fine-haired ladies
