Shopping Chronicles….Hair Therapy

My hair and I are in battle to achieve our desired color. A couple of months ago, I was all about going a nice bright, but natural red. However, the day after Christmas, actually 7am on the day after Christmas I decided that I wanted to go honey blonde. I was so adamant about that decision that I actually got out of bed and went to Walgreens to buy a box of dye.

Unfortunately, I since my hair still had red in it, the color didn’t take. So, I conditioned my hair religiously for a week and then applied a slightly brighter blonde shade. That, my friends, made the red in my hair MORE vibrant. Actually, it was the shade of red I was initially trying to obtain. Figures. Still, I’m sticking to my quest for honey blonde hair. So, in order for me to stay on this path, as I type this, I’m dying my hair back to natural brown. After that, I will be able to try this blonde ambition plan.

So, I’m going to have to give my hair a ish load of hair therapy with deep conditions and extra moisture. Hence, I’ve been picking up hair products to help keep my hair healthy on this pursuit for honey blonde tresses. Here are some recent items I picked up to help me on this journey.

  • Hask Placenta Plus HENNA n’ PLACENTA with Olive Oil – Pretty good. I’ve only used it once, but so far so good. It’s creamy and very moisturizing, which my thirty hair loves.
  • Fantasia Frizz Buster Silky Smooth Hair Straightening Cream – I ADORE the serum version of this! So, when I saw that there was water-based cream version, I had to buy it. The verdict is still out on this.
  • Motions Oil Sheen – Just your typical oil sheen. I usually buy the olive oil sheen, but decided to try something different.
  • Protectiv Healthy Ends – I love this stuff! I’ve mentioned it a few times on here before. So, the love is still here. (p.s. Don’t let the price in the link fool and scare you. I usually pay around $6 for it at random beauty supply stores. However, I would possible pay the 9, because I love this stuff)

Stay Stylish!
