New look!!

Hello there,

A few days ago I decided to change my hair look a little. I felt like I had a curtain for hair so I wanted layers, to get rid of split ends, and have a side bang. The result is below! Hope you like it a much as I do!

New Hair Products

Hi readers,

  I've always had dry, wavy hair and in order to keep it moisturized, I use a leave-in conditioner after every wash. I used to use one from Dove but I wasn't able to find it, so I decided to try Neutrogena's Triple Moister. I also ran out of shampoo and did some research online and a lot of people were talking very well about Dove's shampoos and I bought Dove Damage Solutions Intensive Repair.
  As for the results: In just one week I feel my hair softer and stronger with a lot more shine. I am very satisfied with my purchase and do recommend it. It doesn't have to be the ones I bought, these are just examples, but I do recommend using a leave-in conditioner to moisturize your hair and to protect it from every day harm. Hope this helps :)

In love with this new hair product!!

Hi guys,

   So you may not tell from my first post, but i have really wavy and sort of dry hair. With time it just became a big mess and in order to control it, I used a product from Redken's curly hair line which sadly is discontinued. Some days my hair would be curly and pretty while others it would just look like a used broom. Tired of all that drama and halfway through my second year of college, I decided to cut my hair. So for about a year and a half my hair length was around the collarbone or a bit shorter. Then I decided that I was going to let it grow and right now its pretty long (at least for me because I was wayyy to use to short hair). But now that it's actually long, I had no idea what products I could use to get  nice, controlled, soft curl; like the one you get after you go to the beach. My best friend suggested a product and I decided to give it a go (the picture and my experience follow bellow)


REDKEN ringlet 07 & moroccan argan oil EXTRA PENETRATING OIL dry & coarse hair 
This REDKEN product is medium control for the curls. It is actually really good, it hold the curls in place and leaves a really nice sort of bounce in the curl. The only problem for me, is that it left my hair sort of had in some places as if I has applied gel to the hair and I hate that feeling. To kind of smooth it out a bit I used a couple of drops from the moroccan argan oil and it actually did smooth it out, but not completely. Sometime I would feel the hard texture of gel in the hair and others I didn't. Overall, it is a good product but just not the product for me.







GARNIER Fructis De-Constructed Beach Chic


Yesterday, while at Walgreens, this product to the left caught my eye, so i bought it and I just couldn't wait to try it. So this morning I woke up took a shower and sprayed the product on hoping for the best because if not, it would mean a bad hair day at the university. The end result, well you judge. I let my hair air dry and it dried pretty fast. The texture of my hair is smooth and I just love the curls mixed with the waves!! For now this is a complete two thumbs up! Best part is it cost around $5.





If you have tried any products for curls let me know and let me know if you do try this product!!
