missing, again.

Hey Beauties, 

I haven't posted in a while. I kind of got discouraged because I dont have many views. But then I had to remind myself that I'm just starting out and I need to get some interesting posts up and share my link so everyone knows about it. 

I started two new jobs, well I start the second one tomorrow! I'm nervous but excited. I work at a childrens hair salon, and in a restaurant. I wanted to be in a night club too but at least with a restaurant I can work more, because I'monly at the salon on Fridays & Saturdays. So I took what I could! I am undecided if I enjoy my job at the salon. I feel bad when the kids are screaming. Makes me sad... 

I lightened my hair again, I think its too light now though so I need to foil in some brown or a dark blonde... one day I'll be happy with my hair, maybe. 

I'm excited to go to the ABA Hair Show in April. I know its still 2 months away basically but I'm getting really excited! I don't talk to many people up there anymore but I still love the city and love going every single time, the drive is brutal though! 

Anyways, thought I'd catch up with my readers(or future readers)

I promise I'll be back soon!

olive oil, what!

Hey Beauties, 

So I watch CarlieStylez quite often and a couple of weeks ago I watched her video on the olive oil treatment and I wanted to try it. I wouldn't ever remember til I was already in the shower...last night, Im laying in bed super bored and I remembered the olive oil treatment... 

What you do, is warm up some olive oil, not too warm, apply it to your hair(I suggest keeping it on the ends, as your roots already get oily due to your natural oils coming out), put a bag on your head whether that be a shower cap, or a shopping back like me. You then will put the blowdryer to your lucious, oily locks and keep constant heat on it for about 20-25 minutes, or until it feels fairly warm. Then rinse it out... I took an entire shower, and my body felt oily after but I feel really hydrated today. So its up to you whether you wanna just pop your head into the sink, or have a full shower. Make sure you shampoo really good to get all that oil out. You can condition if you want, but I recommend you dont. and to help your hair out, let it air dry! 

My opinion on this... it works great, but I didnt wash my hair good enough and I still feel some oil in my hair. But thats okay cause I have nothing to do until tomorrow morning! My hair feels super soft, and I am very pleased. I bleached my hair too much so my ends are pretty bad right now, so this is a major improvement. 

Would I recommend this home remedy/service? Sure! If you have the patience to let it heat up good, and to spend a few extra minutes scrubbing to get rid of the oil...otherwise, skip it & use a leave in conditioner :) 

Let me know if you tried it and what you thought! :)

Ivory 2-in-1 Hair & Body

Hey Beauties, 

Heres a different post for whoever is reading my thoughts and opinions! :) I am going to do a review on the Ivory 2-in-1 for Hair & Body! 

First off, I was a little skeptical because what washes your body doesn't necessarily mean you can wash your hair with it too, until now. This product is made to wash you, head to toe; literally. It says that it conditions your hair as well as washes it. I didn't find it too conditioning it, but that could be because I bleached the crap out of my hair and nothing makes it feel conditioned at this point.... 

My body felt very clean and refreshed, which is always nice during those early morning showers we all hate. 

Another perk is that you have less bottles in your shower! I have so many right now, I have 3 different shampoos, 2 different conditioners, 3 body washes, a facial scrub, and 2 bars of soap. I could easily get rid of 10 items by using this product! 

I recommend it for those who do not need major conditioning for their hair, or if they just want to use it for their body! 

If you want to try this product, head on over to Ivory's website to read more about it  http://bit.ly/VH4M0U 

As well, Influenster has a a short video on it, and you can check that out at http://on.fb.me/W0vaFh

Let me know what you thought of it and if you would repurchase!
