Grooming Creme was created when a Bb. Stylist began blending concoctions of hand and body lotions for hair at fashion shows in the 1990's.
WHY: For texture, separation, satin sheen, moisture, volume control and definition
WHO: Use very sparingly on very fine hair. Good for thick, coarse and afro textures or dry hair. Excellent choice for men, its moisturizing oils make it a good substitute for conditioner.
HOW: Start with a very small amount and build up as needed. Squeeze onto palms and work through damp hair with fingers.
PRESS BOX: Super Models like Gisele Bundchen and Naomi Campbell are big fans!

Product Spotlight: Bb. Gel & Gellac
Bumble and bumble has 2 different gels to choose from.
First up is Bb. Gel. It molds firm and shiny shapes but can also brush into soft yet still-shapely forms. It's alcohol free and will not flake!
HOW: work a small amount through hair (add more as necessary); style and let dry; brush through for a softer look.
The other Bb. gel is Gellac. This is a sure-hold gel-lacquer freezes shapes with a sculpted, glistening finish- no movement and no brushing it out until you wash it out! It's also flake free.
WHO: anyone who wants hair to REALLY stay put
HOW: Start sparingly and increase as needed; work a small amount through towel dried hair (the drier the better) and sculpt, mould, spike or slick.

Product Spotlight: Bb. Styling Creme
When mousses and gels flooded the market in the 80's Bumble went against the grain and came out with Styling Creme. It's neither and both at the same time.
WHY: strong hold, midweight and body-building
WHO: works well for many hair types, also great to give curly hair definition. Gives a semi strong hold as well as amazing volume! Doesn't weigh down even the finest of hair.
HOW: work through damp hair and style. The more you use the more hold you will get. Use with a blow-drier for more volume and a softer hold.
FANS: Bruce Springsteen made the switch from gel to Styling Creme and never looked back!

Product Spotlight: Bb. Styling Lotion
Styling Lotion makes working with delicate or fine hair less risky. It is light, both in terms of hold and weight, and it makes hair less vulnerable by lubricating, detangling, and gradually strengthening. Consider Styling Lotion a multi-talented mist or as Thickening Hairspray's less-controlling sister; a gentle starting lotion for the uninitiated or naturalist.
Why: Gentle hold, lightweight, fewer tangles, less breakage, heat protection, strength
Who: Anyone; a good choice for fine, frequently styled, fragile or chemically treated hair
When: Anytime; after Prep or Tonic Lotion and before heated tools
How: Spray on damp hair evenly by sections. Work through and style.
Press Box: Diane Lane combines Prep with Styling Lotion. Courtney Cox, Jennifer Aniston and Lisa Kudrow became big fans on the set of Friends.

Product Spotlight: Bb. Hair Powder
What is Bumble and bumble Hair Powder? Well they add sexy va-va volume, extend the life of a blow-dry by absorbing excess oil and provide a dry texture that keeps pins and clips from slipping (so styles stay put). The shades enhance or shift hair color - these fantastic and fun forms of temporary color can be used to blend away roots between color appointments (Hallelujah!).
How to absorb oil (which is our personal fave!): Hold can 10-12 inches from dry hair; spray thoroughly, concentrating on oily areas. Let dry and style. We have found you need to be sure to protect clothing, bath and bed linens during use (spots can be easily removed with a mild soap and water).
White for white, silver, platinum, ash and champagne blonde
Blondish for darker blonde and lighter brunette
Red for all shades of red (also adds rosy tones to brunette and blonde). This shade has been discontinued so get it while you can!
Brown for chocolate, mahogany and chestnut
Black for inky brown, Asian, Hispanic, afro and goth

HAIR HOW TO
Craving some sexy volumptous locks like Cameron Diaz? Then this HAIR HOW TO is just for you! If you want to get the exact cut ask for multiple layers with sideswept bangs. Spritz Bb. thickening spray all over onto wet hair and dry with a round brush, brushing the bangs forward. Lightly smooth over hair with Bb. shine serum.
September Product Spotlight: Thickening Family
This product spotlight covers all the Bb. Thickening Family. Thickening Shampoo and conditioner is for those who need all the help they can get. Why not start building body in the shower? Not that bigger is necessarily better, but more and more of you are craving the glamour of fuller, sexy, retro styles to help them feel more special in such a boringly casual world. Thickening Shampoo also helps seal split ends (though, if you've got them, it's time for a trim). Silk powder in the Thickening Conditioner adheres to hair strands and creates space between them for fuller effect.
Thickening Spray is for our many clients with body issues who never felt their hair was thick enough. While there is no doubt that Thickening Hairspray helps truly fine hair achieve styling lift-off, it also works wonders with virtually any type of hair: thick, thin or otherwise.It can also be used to finish a style providing light hold. Last is the amazing Thickening Serum.

HAIR HOW TO
Crave Jennifer Anistons long beachy waves? Here are some tips to help you achieve this look at home.
Spray Bb. Thickening hairspray on your roots and ends of wet hair. Spray Bb. Surf Spray on the ends to add texture. Dry hair with a blowdryer until your hair is almost dry and put in velcro rollers, rolling up to your chin and let your hair air dry. If you're in a hurry use a blowdryer, let the rollers cool before you remove them. Another way to achieve this look is using the same products, blowdry hair until it's completely dry, then wrap random pieces of your hair around a large curling iron. Finish the look with a little more Surf Spray for more texture and Bb. Does it All Hairspray for a light hold. For extra shine mist some Bb. Shine on your ends.
NEW PRODUCT: Bb. THICKENING SERUM
Wearing thin? This nightly, leave-in treatment fattens and fortifies over time for thicker, stronger strands and fuller hair (really).
Who: Those wearing thin, the fine, and the ultra-fine.
When: Nightly. Twice-daily for the ultra-fine.
How: Before bed, pump serum into palms 2 or 3 times; work into roots and through damp or dry hair. Longer hair types should pump again and be sure to smooth through ends.
Product Spotlight: Creme de Coco
Creme de Coco shampoo: Though Creme de Coco Shampoo isn't edible (you might wish it were since it smells so good) its benefits are undeniable; Even the surfactant (the stuff that actually cleanses) is a coconut derivative that lends an unusually luxurious lather.
More than a few flowers are in the recipe as well: The Mallow adds a soothing effect, and the Milk Thistle contributes its antioxidant properties.
why: Moisture-rich, shine enhancing, soothing, color-compatible
who: anyone, especially if dry or dull
Creme de Coco conditioner: Beauty secrets of the South Pacific are brought to you in this tropic-inspired balm. It makes full use of the Coconut - both oil and extract. Murumuru Butter and Meadowfoam Seed Oil are both rich moisturizers; Wild Olive Seed Oil is a very effective softener; Horsetail and Nettle were both chosen for their ability to promote lustrous hair. Enjoy.

BONDED EXTENSIONS
Teresa has been growing her hair out for years but hasn't been able to get it past her shoulders. The solution? Extensions! We used the Racoon bonded method (more info here) and she looks amazing! The hair blended beautifully!
BEFORE
If you are trying to grow your hair out but feel like it can't get past a certain length or it starts breaking off, extensions are the perfect fix. When you do your hair day to day you focus most of your time and heat (from the blowdrier, curling iron, flat iron, etc) on the top front, which is why you end up with shorter broken off pieces around your face. If you have extensions your focus becomes on the extension hair so you end up putting little to no heat on your regular hair. Not to mention you don't do your hair as often. In the end it will grow faster and healthier. Don't forget this is the last month you can get 10% off hair extensions! (offer ends august 31, 2009)
