Golden Globes: Tina Fey and Remington

More old Hollywood glamour from the thoroughly modern Tina Fey (using thoroughly modern tools)…

Tina Goes Glam

Best Actress nominee and presenter Tina Fey was stunning at last night’s Golden Globe Awards in a navy L’Wren Scott gown and a chic updo. The velvet column dress and curly chignon channeled elegant, old Hollywood glamour. We got the red carpet secrets to achieve this gorgeous look straight from her stylist, Remington's Richard Marin:

Apply a texturizer or curl enhancing mousse to wet hair and blow dry using the diffuser attachment to create frizz-free curls and waves (Try the
Remington T-Studio Pearl Ceramic Dryer with exclusive pearl technology for extra shine!)

Use a small barrel iron - Marin recommends the
Remington Style ¾ inch curling iron - to curl random sections of hair

Shake hair several times (do NOT brush!) and mist hairspray throughout

Pull hair into a loose low ponytail and twist into a loose bun at the neckline. Secure with bobby pins, spritz shine spray and you’re ready for your close-up!

Great Value and Great Hair! Remington Professional Dryer (review)

So now it seems like I'm all about the hairdo these days. I got a new cut; so I've been trying out straight and wavy styles on my naturally curly hair. It's pretty fun. It's like getting brand new hair.

When I tried doing a blowout on my own, though, I realized two things. One: I'm not very coordinated; and two: my ancient hair dryer needed to be replaced. Since I'm also trying out sticking to my budget; I decided to check out the dryer from Remington. I reviewed their flat iron recently, and was really impressed with the value and quality.

Professional Hair Dryer

Blurb: The Professional line, a collaboration between Remington and celebrity stylist Richard Marin, was created so women could achieve celeb-sexy style without breaking the bank. AC motor for 3 times longer life and faster airflow. 1875 watts. Narrow airflow concentrator attachment for precision styling. Airflow diffuser attachment to maintain curl. Internal electronic ion generator continuously emits millions of ions for maximum therapeutic benefits. Removable intake filter for easy cleaning. 6 power settings. Cool shot button to set style in place. Lightweight and ergonomically designed for comfortable handling.

Awesome job, Remington! What a huge difference having the right dryer makes. I'm still getting the hang of the blowout thing (especially in the back); and this dryer made things a lot easier. For one thing, it has three heat settings in addition to the cold button. Love that – my ends dry much faster than the rest of my hair and don't need (or want) the high heat. I also found the dryer very lightweight and easy to handle (as well as relatively quiet). I'm thrilled that I'm getting this quality at an excellent price!

The Professional is available exclusively at Walmart, but you might want to take a look at the Remington website too (there's an outlet center).

From Retro to Rad: Remington

OMG I totally remember fighting over this hair dryer with my sister! Check out the old and the new…

Then & Now: Remington Stays True to its Roots

The retro Remington 700 Super handheld dryer was all the rage in the 70s – along with Farah Fawcett’s sexy feather cut. The modern day version, the Professional by Remington Dryer, is still the best price for the quality. The Professional line, a collaboration between Remington and celebrity stylist Richard Marin, was created so women could achieve celeb-sexy style without breaking the bank. Marin styles Denise Richards’ updated version of Fawcett’s iconic look with Professional by Remington tools – which goes to show, everything old is new again.

Standout features include:

• Tourmaline, titanium, and ceramic even heat protection
• Salon-powerful motor and airflow
• AC motor lasts 2-3 times longer than standard DC dryer motor
• Ionic conditioning
• Lightweight and quiet
• 1875 watts; 3 heats and 2 speeds
• Concentrator/Diffuser included

The Professional by Remington Dryer is available exclusively at Walmart.

The Unexpected: Remington® Frizz Therapy Iron (review)

Hey all. You may have noticed that I didn't post this weekend. I got an unexpected project for the next couple of months; so I'm giving myself a break and only posting on weekdays. No worries, though, there will still be plenty of cool beauty stuff during the week!

Speaking of unexpected, I decided to start off the new month with something different. Like…new hair! Well, not exactly "new," but straight instead of curly. Just to change things up a little. February unexpectedness brought to you by Remington®.

Remington® Frizz Therapy Iron

Blurb: The revolutionary Frizz Therapy Iron is the first flat iron to use frizz-resistant technology to protect hair from the outdoor elements, dramatically diminishing frizz (65% less than a traditional iron) and firmly resisting humidity all day (up to 15 hours) to maintain a silky smooth style. The iron employs next generation ceramic plates with special porous properties infused with a blend of frizz-resistant micro-conditioners that are emitted during styling. Complete with digital heat settings that range from 300°-430°F and a one-hour auto-safety shut off, the Frizz Therapy Iron is the newest must-have for sleek, frizz-free hair!

Except for a brief "Farrah" phase (best forgotten), I've pretty much always been a curly girl; so "going straight" sounded kind of fun. I decided to try out the Remington after I posted that it got a rave from Good Houskeeping. Being an amateur hair straightener, I didn't want to just use any old thing.

Whoa! To begin with this was a huge amount of fun! Partly because the iron worked fabulously and partly because it was really cool to see myself with straight hair. This iron is really, really easy to use. I have absolutely no straightening skills and I managed to get all of my thick, curly hair straightened in less than 20 minutes. It couldn't believe how easy it was. The temperature adjusts very easily, the plates heat quickly; and I only had to go over each section once to get it poker straight. My hair looked shiny, and it was even kind of "swingy."

Of course once I got my hair all straightened, I realized that I was way overdue for a haircut. So I decided not to wear it to work until I get my hair all tidied up later this week. But I wanted to make sure to do a frizz test. Since the weather outside is bone dry, I turned on the hot shower and filled the bathroom with steam. I stood in the steamy bathroom for about 15 minutes; and I'm pleased to report that there was not a hint of frizz. My hair stayed straight and shiny. Excellent!! I cannot wait to play with this again!

The Frizz Therapy Iron is available at Amazon, Target and other retailers.

Happy Monday!

Golden Globes: Diane Kruger, Tina Fey and Remington

When you've got the dress, you need to make sure the hair is going on too! Check out Diane Kruger and Tina Fey's looks (and some how-to hints) from the Globes…

Reign & Shine: Diane & Tina Ruled the Red Carpet

Inglorious Basterds star Diane Kruger and 30 Rock’s Tina Fey topped all the “Best Hair” roundups for their glam Golden Globes tresses! We checked in with the stylist who created these winning looks – Richard Marin, dishes on how you can create these ‘dos at home:

Kruger’s stunning pink tulle Christian Lacroix gown was complemented perfectly by her updated 50's retro hairstyle. According to Marin, the look is not only sleek, but very simple to create:

• After drying, make an obvious side part.
• Curl the bottom sections of the hair to shoulder length using the Remington Heated Clip Hair Setters.
• Brush out the curls several times and create the roll that sits at the shoulder.
• For extra punch, place pearl encrusted hair combs on either side of the hair, just above the ears!

Fey channeled old Hollywood glamour with her polished chignon and classic Zac Posen party dress. To recreate this style, Marin says to follow these steps:

• Begin by blow drying hair straight with the Professional by Remington Hair Dryer.
• To create volume, spray thermal protecting spray at the crown and give it a shot of hot air.
• Backcomb only the crown and the back of the hair, and place hair in snag-free ponytail holder.
• Twist the ponytail until it begins to coil into a bun and pin in place with bobby pins – add hairspray and shine spray and you’re Red Carpet ready!
Remington Heated Clip Hair Setters and Remington Professional Dryer are available at Walmart stores nationwide.

This Just In: Rave Reviews for Remington® Frizz Therapy Iron

Okay, I'm always the last to jump on the bandwagon when it comes to gadgets; but this looks pretty darn bandwagon-worthy. This Iron even got a Good Housekeeping Award! Check it out…

New Remington Frizz Therapy Iron
Hot Off The Press!

People's Choice Awards #1

Check out Diane Kruger's awesome look at the PCA's! I am all over this "yeah, my hair just naturally looks fabulous" thing she's got going on.

Diane Catches A Wave At The People’s Choice Awards

Leading lady Diane Kruger hit the red carpet at the 2010 People’s Choice Awards in a curve-hugging Hervé Léger dress and a curvaceous ‘do to match. Celebrity hairstylist Richard Marin let us in on how he created her perfectly undone beach waves in just five easy steps:

Start by spraying sea salt texturizer in hair.

Blow dry with the diffuser attachment on the Remington Professional Dryer with hair flipped over for maximum volume. Do NOT run your hands through hair while drying as this will cause frizz. Dry 90% of the way and air dry the rest.

Next, use the Remington T-Studio Heated-Clip Rollers, alternately curling sections of hair with a 1 inch roller and 1 ¼ inch roller until the entire head is set.

Unroll when cool and shake your head around A LOT to tousle the curls.

Amp up the volume with a dry spray shampoo, and finish off the look with a spritz of hairspray to control flyaways. Shake, spray, shake some more, and you’re out the door!

Remington Professional Dryer is available exclusively at Walmart. Remington T-Studio Heated-Clip Rollers are available at Target and Walmart.

Got Plans This Weekend? Check Out This New Do

This is very cute. Diane Kruger showed up on the red carpet with this really chic (yet wearable) holiday look.

Get The Holiday Look: Knotty & Nice

Diane Kruger lit up the red carpet recently with this modern day twist on a classic Hollywood style. Her hairstylist, Richard Marin, gave us the scoop on four simple steps to re-create this holiday hair DO at home.

• Dry hair with head tilted forward using an ionic dryer for maximum shine and volume (try the Remington Professional Dryer).

• Part hair to side. Using a one inch barrel curling iron, section hair in pieces that are 1½ inches by 3 inches wide. Curl in one direction for a uniform wave pattern, and let curls cool to set.

• Brush hair out in a downward motion. Keep brush close to scalp, and finger waves will form. Brush waves to one side, and secure in side ponytail.

• Roll hair into smooth bun with the ends poking out, and pin into place. Finish with a touch of hairspray and bit of shine spray. To glam it up like Diane, add a sparkly hair accessory.

The Remington Professional line includes a dryer, one-inch flat iron and two-inch flat iron. (Available exclusively at Walmart).
