SHAMPOO

I know you’re trying to get your hair to grow in some places but to go away in others. At least I am. However, I have an aversion to pain so waxing ain’t gone work.

To my joy, some months back, I received some Miss Jessie’s Sudsy Slip Shampoo and a few other goodies from their brand. I’m not a fan of strong scents, even if pleasant so I had to re-gift most of it. I held on to the shampoo, though, because it seemed like it’d be pretty good to try.

It collected soap scum though because I was stuck on cowashing and trying out some other brands. But one day, [click to continue…]


Dry Shampoo. Sounds like an oxymoron doesn’t it? But, lately it’s all my friends and I have been talking about–mostly because most of my natural hair girls are product junkies and a lot of our discussions are centered on creams and butters and puddings…(SN: You ever compare your hair diet to your personal diet? Like what would happen if we only ate creams, butters, puddings? I feel a post developing here….) Ok, back to dry shampoo. Here are the basics….

What it is: A powdery substance or liquid spray that you apply to the scalp, allow to sit for a few minutes, maybe even massaging it into the scalp for cleansing effect. Finally, you comb or brush it out.

What it does: Soaks up oil and buildup without the use of H2O

How it works: Alcohol or talc powder, which soaks up oil, is the key ingredient.

I’m blessed to have strong resolve (Read: I ain’t got the money for all that!) when it comes to hair products. I am also blessed to have one particular bestie who can’t control herself in Sephora, Ulta, or Walgreens. And yes, I’ve had to talk her into emptying her online carts more than a few times. So, I nearly ALWAYS get to try the latest goo without breaking the bank, or at least I get a review I can trust.

This time though, I’m going in [click to continue…]


is it just me, or is it clear as day? i think with the obvious steady trickle of cleaning conditioners hitting the market we should soon expect a flood. i anticipate many more of these “wen” type products coming out for the masses soon. but i think we should also point out an obvious, VERY OBVIOUS, inspiration for all this conditioner shampoo stuff – curly hair boards and curly haired women “discovering” that washing their hair with conditioner cuts down on knots, tangles and breakage, some of the things that many curly hair women – including myself – experience when using shampoo both with and without sulfates.

wen brought conditioner washing to home shopping tv and into the lives of women all over america and l’oreal is following suit with their new l’oreal evercreme cleansing conditioner. sulfate free, it’s a conditioner shampoo that calls for nothing before and after use – just wash and go.

Invati is 97% naturally derived and reduces hair loss by 33% in trails. It is specifically for women who are concerned with hair loss, thinning, loss of volume, lack of density and a tight or dry scalp.

recently while flipping through glossies while cruising at 30K feet to somewhere…who knows where i was going; i’m loosing track because it seems i’m living on planes these days (lot less fun than it sounds, trust me), i ran across an ad for a new product from aveda, specifically their invati scalp revitalizer. it caught my attention because i love scalp care. there is just something about a healthy scalp that gets me going. perhaps it was because my parents and i struggled with my dandruff as a child, but i always get bright-eyed and intensely interested with scalp products are in my vicinity.

i love aveda products as well as their hair color so i’m not surprised to read that this new invati™ scalp revitalizer is already causing a stir with women who are deep into scalp care as well as ayurvedic care. for some ayurvedic instantly means stan. [click to continue…]
