I recently wrote about Marc Anthony Strictly Curls Defining Lotion. You can read the post here: Limp Locks and Weak Curls? Marc Anthony Strictly Curls Gets Great Reviews. In that post, I promised that I would continue to spill the beauty beans and tell you about one of my other favorite hair products.
Tresemme Thermal Creations Curl Activator Spray is an excellent product for any of you straight-haired makeup moxies who are looking to add some curl to your coif. Liberally spritz the Curl Activator Spray all over damp hair, blast hair for a few minutes with your hairdryer and then commence with the curling. While Tresemme’s website has some helpful tips on how to use this product, it doesn’t mention one particular use for this product that I find truly effective and useful.
This Curl Activator Spray, more than any other hair product that I have thus far come upon, has the ability to add excellent volume and texture to hair — even without blowdrying. Just work this product through your hair while it’s damp and remember to keep scrunching and tousling your hair as it dries. The product tends to get a little crunchy, but just keep scrunching, twisting, and tousling and your hair will soften up. Fellow Makeup Moxies, this is wash-and-go done right!
This is such a perfect, low-fuss look for summer and while it’s super simple, there are a couple of little secrets to maximizing this easy hairstyle. To get the beauty lowdown, check out our beauty secret, How to Get Sexy Summer Hair.

wow, wow, WWWWWOW!!! This stuff really works!! I was pretty skeptical at first because I have pin-straight “perfect” Asian hair and I’ve never been able to get that sexy, touseled, just-woke-up-and-rolled-around-on-the-beach-all-day look without my hair falling flat after a couple hours. But I followed your tips and I seriously could not believe my eyes!! My hair couldn’t have looked better had I spent hours in front of the mirror and tons of expensive hairspray. I just spritzed it on my wet hair in the morning, did that scrunching thing while as I did some stuff around the house, and when it was dry, took a look in the mirror, and said DAMN, that Makeup Moxie knows her stuff! My hair was full and WAVY (wha-wha-whaaa???) yet it was soft and touchable. I LOVE this stuff. i want to do this to my hair every day…..which makes me want to say…”TRESemme….TRESemme mucho!” hahahaha! Corny, I know–I couldn’t resist!
Thanks, Makeup Moxie!!! What an awesome tip! You’ve made a believer out of me!

LOL, awesome! You’re so very welcome! “Tresemme Mucho”…that’s hilarious! Now when I’m doing my hair I’ll have something to sing to myself besides, “Tresemme….Ohhh La La!”

Hey, I was wondering where you can get this lovely stuff. I’m dying to try because I also have asian hair, and I’ve wished for everrrrrr to have that beach blonde surfer girl hair.

lol, I just commented on another post about how we always wish we had the opposite of what we’re born with ; )
But I have impossibly straight Asian hair too, so I totally understand where you’re coming from!
I recently spotted this spray at Target and Wal-Mart. If you can’t find it anywhere near you, you can also snag it online from Walgreens.
Hope that helps. Good luck!
