My Hair is Not So Gross now.

The last couple of months have really had me scratching my head (no pun intended) at what I was doing so wrong when washing my hair. I would literally spend 5 minutes making sure that I had scrubbed all of the shampoo and conditioner out of my hair, but no matter what, the roots on the left hand side of my hair were totally oily when I would be blow drying my hair. I tried letting it dry naturally, but you could still fry and egg on that hot mess.

I thought that the Pure Fiji shampoo and conditioner ($9 each) was doing great things for me, but it really wasn't. Perhaps because I had been using it in Fiji where I had also been swimming every day, my hair was rinsed out already. Maybe I was blinded by smelling like a delicious coconut.

Then I tried John Frieda Brilliant Brunette ($17.27 each) and I had the same issues. I decided it was just a problem that I would have to deal with. Ergh.

After going to the salon on Friday to have my hair blow dried, the hairdresser asked what hair products I use and I told her that apart from rarely using hairspray, it was only the shampoo and conditioner.  She told me that I had a terrible build up of product close to my scalp on the sides of my head and that's why it has been feeling so gross. Despite me scrubbing and rinsing, my shampoo and conditioners were just not cleansing enough so she recommended that I give these Kerastase products a try.

I was hesitant due to the price $47 and $38 respectively, but knew that I had to try something so I bought them and gave them a whirl last night.

Okay guys. This is the shit.

It doesn't smell pretty, but I guess it doesn't need to. I used the shampoo twice and conditioner once, and my hair is freaking brilliant today. ZERO product build up and it feels so light and soft. It will actually be a shame to cut it all off this Friday now.

I wish someone had suggested these products to me earlier!!! Has anyone else used them due to having the same issues as myself???

Can't believe I suffered through grossness for so damn long.

I was lucky enough to receive this Circa candle in Lilac & Orchid from my office K.K - love the scent and the matches kill me! There are so massive and awesome. Impressed.

I've also been on a slight Glasshouse candle spree...

Tahaa smells just like caramel and makes me salivate every time it is burning. I think it is aiding to my weight gain from eating all things caramel. Ha.

 This was me before I had my lady mo' waxed on Thursday. It was getting a tad out of control.
