I've been bad :(

Hey guys.
Today I did the unmentionable -

I straightened my hair :S
Naughty me! Oh well I used a heat protectant and stuff. The only bad thing was that my hair is too curly to straighten and just pops back up in waves again :) oh well :P

Long Hair Relationship Review and More!

I enter the shower...

Turn on the water...

And begin to lather up.

Oh the scent, beutifully berryish (think gardenia) yet not overpowering. Mmmm... Rinsey Rinsey Rinssee... Ok! Apply the conditioner... Good, nice. Ok. Shavey Shavey Shave... Ooops! Rinse Rinse Rinse Rinse! Mmmm silky goodness!

This was the basis of my shower tonight. When the suds were flowing during the 'rinse cycle' I took the liberty of reading the ingredients of my previous Herbal Essences 'Drama Clean' Holy Gosh! Let me list the bad sounding Sodium "insertlongwordhere' ingredients for you...

Sodium Laureth sulfate
Sodium lauryl sulfate

Sodium Chloride
Sodium Benzoate

Hydroxypropyltrimonium chloride (!!gosh that was a mouthful!!)

Linoleamidopropylpg-dimonium chloride phosphate

Many many more l0ng words i couldnt be bothered to type
Sodium citrate

Sodium xylene sulfonate

I think thats it. What did you say? They are the same ingredients as in your paint stripper? Sure sounds like it! I am officially giving up harsh cleansers once and for all. But golly my new shampoo makes my hair silky!!!!!!!!! It also combatted my annoying cowlick flyaways too! Yaaay! I'm all for Herball Essences Long term relationship!

So this is photos over 5 months time... yea my hair seems to be growing nicely!

So I've been using some methods to increasing my hair growth. Between March 25th (4 Months) and April 22nd (5months) I have used these techniques;


Scalp Massage
Hair, Skin and Nails Vitamins (any vitamins containing Biotin will do)
Schwartzkopf Normal Balance Express Repair Leave-in Conditioning treatment

Occasionally:

Redken Anti-Snap Treatment
Herbal Essences Dangerously Straight Leave-in Cream
Olive-oil deep conditioning treatment


I think thats it! Thanks guys!

Redken Anti-Snap

Today at a friends house I tried Redken Anti Snap treatment. I would definetely recommend this as my friend is an obsessive straightener yet her hair is in perfect condition? Why may you ask? Well it's this little bottle of gorgeousness. The scent is unbelievable. The tether of your hair afterwards is magical. This is truly something I would invest in all you heat junkies out there
