I wanted to thank Leah for all her GREAT input about haircare!!  Take time to read over her comments in the last post.  I have actually tried the "conditioner only" regime- but I don't seem to stick with it for some reason.  I AM using a detergent-free shampoo, however, so that's a step in the right direction.  I may go for trying just conditioner again- sure would free up some shelf space in the shower!!  Leah, share away!!  I haven't had a chance to visit the websites you listed- am hoping to get to those later today.  I was participating in a Long Hair Community and got a LOT of great info.

I think my biggest struggle with my hair is what styling products to put in.  Lately I've been getting better results.  I smooth in Pantene "Extra Liso" (it's a hispanic product- which actually is probably more what my hair needs!) and then layer it with Tresemme anti-frizz gel in the black tube.  I don't know if they have 'cones- haven't read the ingredients yet... but for now that combo is working better than anything else I've tried in a while!  I do have VERY thick, curly, frizzy, dry hair.

Anyone else have any great hair tips or secrets you'd like to share??

This morning I spent 2 hours getting a full leg wax at the Aveda Institute (cheaper!!). The things we do for vanity!!  Actually, because I have a pretty generous dose of genetics in the hair department (what's on my head equates to what's on my legs!!  haha!) I am trying to go full-fledged waxing and get away from having to shave every-single-day!!  It will take several months for the hair growth cycle to be in sync, but I am determined to see it through!  Wish me luck!!!

Well, today I need to get some juicing done.  George is out!  I also need to work on some typing for our travel business.  I hope everyone is enjoying this spring day- it is so pretty here!!

Toodles!
