Straight Talk: Aveda Smooth Infusion Glossing Straightener

When I heard about Aveda's new Smooth Infusion Glossing Straightener - which promises to "straighten and smooth hair while adding lustrous shine and protecting the cuticle from heat damage" - I was intrigued, yet skeptical. That's quite a bold claim, Aveda...but you haven't met my mop top.

You see, my hair has some serious behavioral issues and likes to test my patience on a daily basis. So I wasn't expecting much when I smoothed a silver dollar-sized dollop through my towel dried tresses. But after my hair was fully blow dried, I was (pun intended) blown away.

I kid you not...my hair was so straight, soft and shiny that if you didn't know any better, you would have sworn that I took a few passes at it with a flat iron!

Smooth Infusion Glossing Straightener is available at Aveda stores and aveda.com.
