… or how to grow your hair fast….

So it’s that time of year. Summer is coming to a close and fall is just around the corner. There seems to be this seasonal flow of hair that I go through every year, and I’m sure about a million other girls go through it as well. The second that spring starts to fade away and summer starts blazing in, I chop off my hair. Then, when the leaves start turning and the air is getting crisp, I want my hair to be long again… instantly. I change my hair a lot and I change it often, and it usually seems to be weather related.

On top of the weather change, this year also seems to be the year of the wedding. The fourth wedding I will be attending this year is in the first week of October and I want to curl my hair. At first, I wasn’t worried about my hair as much as my dress for the wedding, but then, my betrothed friends asked me to be the host of the wedding. Basically, this means that I will be greeting every single guest, making sure they sign the guest book, making sure they know where to go, collecting the gifts, and answering questions etc. I will be the first person everyone sees at the wedding. I am the first impression of this wedding… and I look like Justin Bieber. Read more »

I hadn’t really realized how much I’ve been missing out on. Now that I’m at a house that has cable TV, I’m starting to catch up. Everyone would always wonder how I managed to live without cable, and my response would be something like “I don’t have time to watch that much TV”. Now that I’m single though, I DO have a lot more time… haha.

Anyway, my sister enjoys watching some really… ahem… interesting programs. Thus far, the most… intriguing one would have to be Billy the Exterminator. Oh. My. Goodness.

Some background on the show: Billy is an exterminator who travels around Louisiana taking care of people’s critter problems. Words cannot capture the brilliance of this man. It truely is something Read more »

Everyone seems to think that Shiny, Healthy, Strong hair is either unobtainable or extremely difficult to get. We’ve all seen the shampoo commercials with beautiful women that have AMAZING hair. I’m sure I’m not the only person who doubts the hair models actually use the brand of shampoo they’re selling. In fact, I’d bet all my money that they’ve never ever used the shampoo they’re selling.

The fact is, unless you’re part of the extremely small percentage of women who have naturally healthy, shiny, amazing hair (and if you fall into this category I’m extremely envious), you’re going to need Read more »

Seriously? If I was in a plane crash and trying to survive on an island (nevermind the smoke monster, Others, creepy French woman, creepy Dead/Not Dead people, Darma Initiative…etc) I would want my hair to be as fabulous as Kates, or Juliets, or ANY of the crash-ed people. I mean, I know they scavanged stuff from the plane, and then went down the hatch and got even more supplies…but was hair gel and flat irons really a part of that? Doubtful.

Nevertheless…most of them still have fabulous hair, maybe with the exception of Hurley LOL. I suppose that’s the magic of TV for ya. So I’ve decided to bring you my Top 9 Lost Inspired Hair Care Products… Read more »
