How to Defy Signs of Aging Hair

I am partnering with Pantene to let you know what their experts have to say about aging hair. Pantene has a new product line called Age Defy. It’s exciting! Pantene has worked over a ten year period to develop it’s first and only line of anti-aging products to help you fight all the problems as your hair ages. The benefits Pantene’s NEW Age Defy can offer you are:

  • reduces breakage
  • prevents split ends
  • controls frizz
  • controls unruly grays
  • minimizes lackluster color
  • minimizes a thin look
  • minimizes dryness

Pantene’s Age Defy Line Products: Pantene Age Defy Shampoo($8.99), Pantene Age Defy Conditioner ($8.99), Pantene Age Defy Advanced Thickening Treatment ($18.99), Pantene Age Defy Rejuvenating Hydration Masque ($12.99)

What the Chief Blonde did

The Chief Blonde sports a faux bob designed by her stylist, Alyssa Bratton of Andrew Marc Salons, Rochester Hills, MI.

In order to immerse myself in the Age Defy experience, I read some of the tips from Patene’s Celebrity Stylist Danilo. They might help you deal with your aging hair as well:

o   A great haircut and a good hair color, preferably one with the least amount of chemicals, is sure to take years off your look.

o   Longer hair on older women can sometimes make faces appear elongated – as we age, we are fighting gravity and this goes for hair too!  Older heads of hair look great with short, geometric cuts.

o   Using anti-aging hair products, such as Pantene Pro-V Age Defy doesn’t necessarily mean you’re losing your hair or addressing a sometimes taboo issue. This collection can be used as a preventative measure to keep you looking and feeling confident about your hair every day.

o   The Pantene Pro-V Age Defy Daily Thickening Treatment is such a great product because it has cumulative benefits. Not only does this product thicken the diameter of hair strands, making hair appear fuller, but it can also be used as a root lifter. It’ll leave hair softer and shinier which will make you look younger.

o   You should start any hair style with a clean base, so be sure to use the Pantene Pro-V Age Defy Shampoo and Conditioner regimen in conjunction with the rest of the Age Defy collection for maximum benefits.

o   Sweeping hair away from your face is a great way to look 10 years younger.

o   Want to create a youthful looking ponytail? Instead of using an elastic, pull large pieces of hair to one side of your head and pin them loosely behind your ear. This will make your crown look fuller and thicker. This also pulls hair away from the face to expose your neck and collarbone to make you feel sexy and youthful.

Before and AfterI discussed these styling tips with my stylist, Alyssa Bratton of Andrew Marc salon in Rochester Hills, MI (book her, she’s great!). I am way too much of a chicken at this point to cut my hair short, but I did think it would be fun to try a shorter hair style as suggested by Danilo. Alyssa suggested a Faux Bob as inspired by this post from the blog “A Beautiful Mess”. Here’s what we came up with.

Faux Bob

The Age Defy products that were helpful in creating this look were the Pantene Age Defy Shampoo, Pantene Age Defy Conditioner, and the Pantene Age Defy Rejuvenating Hydration Masque. I feel like they really helped me deal with dryness, breakage and frizz. Since I have turned 50, my hair is SOOOOOO frizzy! You can’t see any frizz now! Turn back the clock on your hair!

How about some Pantene Age Defy products for yourself?

    Anything!!! This is a major issue for me right now. Dry, dull, breakage and especially thinning. I’m afraid I’m going to wake up one morning and be bald. Any advice, any suggestions, any products I would utilize right now.

    I have to use a lot of conditioner in my hair. Sometimes I add oil. It does wonders for my dry hair. Also tried a new hair coloring product with less chemicals in it and it seems to make my hair shinier.

    I couldn’t do another day with a ponytail and went for an angled bob and cut about 8 inches off my hair a couple weeks ago. It’s in great condition but the only way to make it look younger would be to color it and it would take a whole lot of color to change the silver that I have. Think I will keep it and just keep it healthy. Merry Christmas!

    I got my hair cut from the long style I have worn for a long time into a long lob.

    Flat-ironing my hair would probably make me look younger, but I love my curls!

    I get my hair professionally done. The box stuff from the store is way to damaging. My daughter and I have a girl night, where we put an egg and mayo paste in our hair for an hour. Always comes out shiny and soft.

    I think the only way to make it look younger is to make sure it is in its best condition.

    I’d take our a few of the gray highlights, and get a more up-to-date cut. Thanks for this giveaway.
