    Official Hippy Status Achieved?

    Essential oils. They are all the rage right now. The rage made me interested and skeptical. I shared the above photo and some of my skepticism on Instagram (and Facebook) the other day and judging from all the comments, I’m not alone! There were two main reasons I was skeptical: #1 no other “natural” recipe ever works for me, thinking of using baking soda in my hair, oil pulling for teeth whitening . . . etc. #2 and probably the biggest one: everyone who is singing the praise of essential oils also just happens to sell them and claims that their brand is the only brand you should use, it…

    One Month Without Shampoo

    Okay, I’ve been promising an update and here it finally is! As of right now I have officially gone 5.5 weeks without using shampoo or conditioner.

    DIY Dry Shampoo – For Brunettes

    I started using dry shampoo (from a can) about two years ago. I found it to be exactly what my hair needed on days I didn’t wash it, the dry shampoo soaks up the oil so well and seems to breathe the life back into my hair. Since I’ve been going no-(sham)poo for the last month dry shampoo has been a life saver (I’m planning a full update on the no-poo next week, I promise!). I loved what the dry shampoo did for my hair but definitely was not a fan of the nice white streaks I was often left with, the skunk look wasn’t one that I was going…
