Deep Conditioning Hair Treatments: Product Review


My hair is one of my most favourite things about me and being a girl. I think everyone should treat their hair like their first born. We treat it so badly with all those heat products, tight ponytailss, backcombing and that big mean sun that it deserves special treatment on the regular. This is why I am always on the hunt for a great deep conditioning treatment and have found 2 that I really want to share with you.

First, is Pantene Pro-V’s Professional Level Damage Repair Ampoules, which is a box containing 5 tubes of single use treatments. It is recommended to leave it on for 5 minutes after shampooing and before conditioning, once every 2-3 weeks. I used it once a week and loved every minute of those 5 weeks. My hair was soooo silky soft and so easy to style. One week I even used it as a leave in, while swearing off heating tools. So there were 7 days of a lot of braids and buns, but my hair thanked me.

The second I received in a swag bag from a Joe Fresh party, Joico’s K-PAK Revitaluxe Bio-Advanced Restorative Treatment. I used it much like the Pantene treatment, left it in for 5 minutes after shampooing and before conditioner. It was great as well!


The two are comparable; the Joico is obviously going to be a bit more expensive so the choice is yours.

Review {Chi & Prosys}

Image
My hair is one of my favourite parts about me, thus I invest a lot of time and money into it. When you only wash your hair once a week, you might as well make it worth it. My new favourite shampoo: Prosys Organic Shampoo. I love it because it is a cream, meaning it is more nourishing. My hair doesn't feel like it was stripped of everything it once knew and loved. It lathers a tad but is able to make its way around my head. It smells really good! That is always a bonus. Conditioner/ leave-in/Hair Mask: Chi Nourish Intense It really does leave me hair feeling great, no matter which way I use it. Sometimes when I want my hair curly I will wet my hair, skip shampoo and just conditioner and it is light enough to create nourished but not heavy curls. This also smells good. Not a conventional smell, but more spicy, like most Chi products.

Meal Preparation

Image
I am not trying to claim that I am someone who is super healthy. But I try, that is the main thing, right? You have probably heard about meal prep a number of times. Especially from your crazy healthy friends who are sooo annoying with their preaching. I won't preach. Just tell you another couple reasons why it is so great. SAVES TIME! I got grocery shopping once a week and that is it. I look on Pinterest for the recipes I want to cook, make a list and go! Then I spend my Sunday cooking up lunches, dinners and snacks and am done for the week. DONE. It feels so great to be able to go out and do whatever I want after work and not have to worry about making lunch for the next day. Or when you come home exhausted, dinner is ready and waiting! SAVES MONEY! One shopping trip. Keep within your budget and then you do not have to worry about unexpected trips to the grocery store or have to buy lunches some days because you were too lazy to make food the night before. SAVES CALORI

Product Review: China Glaze Base & Top Coat

Image
My mother is a saint and sent me these in a care package: China Glaze- Strong Adhesion Base Coat I obviously has heard of base coats before but never really bought into them and usually that layer is reserved for my Witchcraft Nail Hardener. Well I made room for this and am amazed! The  China Glaze- Strong Adhesion Base Coat,  is crazy good. You can feel that is it, like, sticky. But not...ya know? I am also convinced that it takes less coats of polish after. I just used a really light pink last night and got way better coverage then I usually do. China Glaze- No-Chip Top Coat I don't have much to say about this one. The China Glaze No-Chip Top Coat does it's job for sure, but didn't wow me. Check my next post for the top coat I opt for.
