Bb. Product Spotlight: Grooming Creme

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. Pin It

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.

HAIR HOW TO: Fall Trends

Feeling bored with your regular old hair do? Here are some Fall Hair Trends that you definitely need to add to your regimen! From ponies to pomps, braids to buns no hairstyle was spared an overhaul for fall. The New Pony, Modern Big Hair and The Updated Updo are trends not only worth noting, but also worth wearing.

From sleek, straight and super low, to textured, high and tightly wrapped anything goes with The New Pony. Use Bb. Prep, Styling Lotion, Defrizz and Does It All to create these looks.


Slick hair back and secure with a hairband, rat hair in the back and spray with hairspray.






Modern Big Hair steals the show. Textured and teased or soft and flowing. No matter the look, when Modern Big Hair was created, Thickening Hairspray, Bb.Gel, Thickening Serum, Bb.Shine and Surf Spray were always part of the action.






The Updated Updo was caught up in the catwalk action. These classic coifs with experimental execution incorporate buns, twists and braids in looks that are often smooth and tight, and other times loose and messy. Use Spray de Mode, Bb.Gel and Hair Powder to make it all happen.

Product Spotlight: Bb. Prep

We have started something new to go along with our Product Spotlights. We are giving you 10% OFF the product we spotlight for 1 week after the product has been posted! *Mention you saw this to get the discount*

Prep prepares hair by detangling, reveals texture, enhances the performance of styling products and quickly re-freshens already styled hair without weighing it down. It also helps the cuticle to lay flatter and make hair shinier and smoother.

Who: Anyone; best for 'virgin' (uncolored), ultra-fine, limp, relatively healthy hair.

When: When hair is damp to detangle and prepare hair for styling; anytime to dampen and reactivate products already in hair.

How: Spray liberally and evenly (it's impossible to use too much) on damp hair and work through.
