Hair, Long Beautiful Hair

Hey beautiful,
     I'm going to tell you all about my love for long hair and how I make sure it becomes long and stays healthy (aka my hair routine). Just when ever I talk about long hair I think of the hippie musical Hair and this one song called "Hair" (very original, I know) which is all about having really long hair and not wanting to cut it. So last May I cut 7 inches off my hair which made it shoulder length and i missed my long hair so much. So in order to grow it back nice and healthy I did some research. I came across all these vitamin lists to make your hair grow faster and I really didn't want to take all these vitamins, so I kept looking. There beyond the vitamin lists I found my answer.
-The Lush "New" shampoo bar, I know shampoo bar? It sounds crazy but it is amazing. So basically what it does it stimulate your scalp with mint and cinnamon. This I didn't think was so bad for you seeing as it is all natural and being used on your body apposed to taking something. I love this thing some much that I am on my 5th bar of it and this stuff doesn't go quick. It lasts me 3 months, though I was my hair every other day because its better for your hair.
-Then since the shampoo may be a little crying at times I use the Aussie Moister conditioner afterwards and then pull my hair up letting it sit for a little bit. And rinse it out.
- When I get out of the shower I let my hair towel dry for abut 10 minutes and then put in Redken Extreme Anti- snap. Which I use as a leave-in conditioner to prevent breakage and split ends. And then I use Biosilk to smooth out my hair.
- Only after that do I brush my hair with a wide tooth comb, to prevent the kind of breakage a brush would do. From there I let it dry completely. I try to never straighten my hair or use any heat, though I do daily on my bangs.
These are all the steps I take to make sure that my hair grows long and healthy.

Stay beautiful, Rose

Winter Skins

Hey beautiful,
     So I know this is gonna sound gross but in the winter my arms get dry and "scaley." Now I'm not talking about my entire arm but the backs of my upper arms. For years I have tried extra lotions, gauze sponges, moisturizing body washes and even other body scrubs. But i found the key, it's a Lush product. Don't know what Lush is? Well let me tell you. Its a company that hand makes all their all natural soap, boy washes, lotions and hair care. From their I got Buffy, which is a body butter (a.k.a. a body scrub). They use ground rice to help exfoliate and its all held inside Shea butter. So will you get rid of all the dry skin, your moisturizing the new skin. I do this once a week, during the week I use a gauze sponge and never use lotion on my arms. This is also great for when you shave your legs too, at any time of the year. Its best when you do it before shaving.
