Give Your ‘Do a Boost with TRESemmé
For me, new hair gives me a fresh start and outlook toward life, it transforms me.
Apparently my sister Jade felt the same way. She stepped up and pushed the edge by requesting an extreme crop from her stylist. Her inspiration picture above was the general look she was going for.
The shoulder blade length hair was transformed into thick, piecey bangs and long layers. She loved it!
However, maintaining her hair was going to take some work though. Jade’s longer hair required little effort, but with this cut, she’ll need products for that swept, edgy look.
Wandering Rite Aid, we were immediately drawn to the pretty black and hot pink colors on the TRESemmé’s 24-Hour Body collection. Complaining that she wanted fluffy, lifted roots and flexible hold, we agreed that this line of hair fixers was perfect for her.
Hmm.. Jade plus TRESemmé Volumizing products = dream come true!
We selected the TRESemmé 24 Hour Body Root Boosting Spray ($3.99 US) for Jade’s roots and the TRESemmé 24 Hour Body Sculpting Spray Gel ($3.99 US) for her bangs.
Here’s a picture of Jade’s flat, mussed hair. Notice the way her hair is very flat; she did not flat iron. It’s all natural!
Step 1: Spray TRESemmé 24 Hour Body Root Boosting Spray ($3.99 US) all over the roots generously. Make sure you cover the areas that a baseball cap normally would.
Step 2: Aim a blow dryer at the roots while opening up sections of your hair with your fingers. Use a wide-toothed comb to slightly tease the hair on each side and the back.
Step 3: Spray TRESemmé 24 Hour Body Sculpting Spray Gel ($3.99 US) onto your bangs lightly. You can use a flat iron to flip the hair out if you choose. My sister decided to just comb the product through while blow-drying her bangs slightly. She then shaped the bangs with her fingers.
The final result? Lift, volume, and hold without frizz, tons of hair pins and a can of hairspray. Jade loved how the products gave her easy to do hair without crunch or overpowering scents.
She liked these products and noticed that her hair was more volumized in the back and sides, particularly. What really sealed the deal for her though, was that her oily hair didn’t look greasy with these products!
Who’s sporting cropped hair here? Anyone tried the TRESemmé 24-Hour Body collection and liked the results too?

Crystal, your sister’s hair looks great!
I use 24-hour body root booster too and I love it. Love it even more that I can get it without breaking the piggy bank

She looks great! I know how scary it can be getting a lot of hair cut off, but it’s always worth it.

Hi Karrie!
Jade was definitely happy with these products. Try it some time. There’s always BOGOs floating around, so it’s hard to resist!

Thanks Lilan!
I’ll pass on the compliment. Glad you don’t have to break open the piggy! We don’t want to do that more than we have to now, do we?

Hey Heather!
Jade thinks it’s worth it too! She was so nervous sitting in the salon seat, but now she loves showing off her new hair with cute hair thingies!
