How to Know if you have a Split Ends Problem/ The Billy Murray Status:

Your alarm clock goes off. You get out of bed and trudge to the bathroom. You look in the mirror and grab the ends of your hair, which are frazzled, frayed, and fried. You then say “oh man… I need a trim…”. You get a trim. Two weeks later…

WAKE UP! Does this sound like you? Are you constantly looking at your drab ends and getting your hair trimmed? Well, it’s good that you’re getting your hair trimmed to try to keep it healthy, but obviously that isn’t working, which can be especially frustrating when you’re 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 »

Sooooo…. here’s the story.

After two years and three months my boyfriend and I have split. The result? Me living with my mother again, which hasn’t happend in about 4 years.
Also simultaneously occuring? My parents divorce. It’s interesting times these… 2010 sure is kicking off with a bang…

Staying with my mom again isn’t so bad… well … except for one thing. HARD WATER. Oh. My. Goodness.

The first day I’m down there I go to take a shower… and my hair literally HURT. I shampoo my hair once… and it just doesn’t feel good. I shampoo again… and it feels WORSE. So I throw on a healthy, well, more than healthy, does of conditioner. I mean, I REALLY put too much conditioner on. I wait my 3-5 minutes, and then rinse. NO IMPROVEMENT. No seriously. It was like not only the world, but now also my hair Read more »

Okay, so I know I promised this a long time ago… apologies for my un-intended hiatus… will explain in the next blog which I PROMISE will not take me three weeks to write.

So. Roffler. If you’re not familiar with this company, they’ve been around for years, decades even. Their main focus has been Men’s Grooming Products (it just sounds weird to say Men’s Beauty Products…). Their entire line was devoted to Men, I mean, one of their shampoos is called “Mountain Sage” AND they offer an amazing, concentrated shave cream.

Men seriously love their Roffler products. A big factor for most guys when it comes to buying, well… anything really, is Cost. And that’s really the great thing about Roffler. They have THE most affordable Salon Hair Products I’ve seen on the market. Seriously. Check out their prices.

The other reason guys love their Roffler products, is because they WORK. Watch out! They’re simple, awesome hair products that do what they say, don’t break the bank, and are easy to use. You can Read more »

It seems like hair product companies just looooovvvvveee to change their hair products. Whether they’re re-packaging their products in fun, new, colorful bottles or updating and improving their formulas, it seems that change is not a four letter word in the hair care business.

But what does that mean for consumers? Usually it means frustration.

After years of using a particular product, you discover one day that it now looks completely different! The round, white bottle with green trim you have loved for years is now a pink, square bottle. Agh! Things get even more complicated when they decided to change the name of their product! Is it nourishing shampoo or gentle shampoo? Are the ingredients the same or different?

All of this change causes us to ask the question: Why?

Why are they changing their packaging and their names and their ingredients?

Well, the first two are easily explained: sales. Hair product companies are always Read more »
