    Hot hair. How to tame your hair when the weather’s hot and sticky.

     

    Summer is just about everyone’s favorite season--just don’t ask your hair how it feels about it. Heat, humidity, sun, chlorine and salt water do a number on hair, so it’s no wonder that it retaliates by frizzing up or refusing to comply with the brush or blow dryer. Our editor-at-large Jane Larkworthy asked a few hairstylists to share their favorite summer tricks, go-tos and hacks to keep hair healthy and, for the most part, presentable (if you plan to camp out by your pool for the entirety of August, we sure hope there’s an outdoor shower nearby…)

    Is summer a good time or bad time to get a short cut?

    Face Time with Maira Kalman.

     

    If you live in New York, or read the New Yorker, or love dogs, or love learning about things in a humorous, unintimidating way, you know Maira Kalman. If you don’t...YOU’RE KIDDING US, RIGHT?

    Our love and admiration for Maira Kalman is equally weighed by our awe of her immense talent and her huge heart. She’s written enough books to fill a shelf, including “What Pete Ate A-Z,” “Food Rules” and “The Elements of Style, Illustrated,” and her art exhibit “Sara Berman’s Closet” can be found at the Metropolitan Museum of Art. She is currently collaborating

    Malin + Goetz is not a Scandinavian architecture firm.

    Nor is it an Austrian opera, or a German term used for teaching your new puppy how to fetch. Matthew Malin and Andrew Goetz are two guys who created a brand to give you better skin, make you smell better and add a chic upgrade to your bathroom.

    What began in 2004 as a minimalist boutique in New York’s Chelsea neighborhood that offered gentle products for people with sensitive skin has expanded to an internationally recognized and trusted name currently sold in 21 countries.

    Malin+Goetz & The Laundress

     

    Here at Malin+Goetz we pride ourselves on being family owned and from New York City. Since like attracts like, we have had the pleasure of befriending the owners of the Laundress, who are also independently owned and work just a block away from us. Just like Malin+Goetz was created to simplify skincare, The Laundress was founded with the goal of taking the chore out of laundry.

     

    We wanted a chance to share the love of each other’s products with our loyal customers. This month we are delighted to have partnered with them for a fun sampling opportunity. While supplies last, all online orders will come with a bonus sample provided by the Laundress. Enjoy
