Hairy Monday...



 
I'm a frequent salon goer for more than a decade of my life...As the world of hair care in the market grew the frequency of my visit to the hair salon became lesser...good for me and my shrinking budget but bad for those in the salon business...anyways, for several years now I've been submitting my hair to different processes to make it look like as if i just stepped out of the salon almost always but the the bad side my hair became more and more frizzy and fragile and not to mention became baby fine in texture.  I am sure we all have these kind of problems when it comes to hair and we often suck up to the promise of every hair products that's been introduced to the market.   As I browse the fashion magazines, watch F channel on cable tv and look at the fashion spread of different fashion labels I was delighted to know that frizzy hair is IN!!!  Yep! That's right, frizzy, curly, naturally wavy hair is the in thing this Spring-Summer of 2011-2012.  Thank heavens I need not to go to the salon to submit myself to the torture of having my hair straightened for several hours.  Although frizzy hair is in, it does not mean that having the "alambre" feel or "walis" look on your hair is A-Ok, but make sure that you have soft to the touch and yummy smelling hair.  I cannot just use one type of conditioner as my hair gets "crazy-frizzy" so I concocted my own hair therapy.

Before Shampoo:  ORGANIX Nourishing Coconut Milk Self Heating Coconut Oil.
I spread this oil into my dry hair and leave it for a good 30 minutes while I'm having my breakfast or watching one of my fave shows at ETC channel

My Shampoo:  I'm totally raving for yummy scented shampoo...Im such a sucker for hair care products that can linger on my hair 'til bedtime.  I'm now into SUAVE Naturals Juicy Green Apple variant.  Smells great!

My Conditioner: I have Lavender and Soymilk by ORGANIX and mix it with PANTENE Extra Shine Condiotioner.  I leave it on my hair for a good 5 minutes and voila...soft to the touch yummy smelling hair with a rather manageable sight of frizziness...

Try mixing some of your conditioner and shampoo together...and see who knows, you just might create a miracle product

Above is a picture of my set of Champagne Gold South Sea Pearls which I usually wear when I wanna feel hip even in just t-shirt and jeans...with my hair pulled back in a ponytail and a towering 5 inches stilleto shoes or 4 inch wedge shoes..
