Scoring Some Product

13 Sep

Awhile back, I bleached, blow dried, and straightened my hair until the strands each closely resembled a dead tree in winter… In case that visual wasn’t clear enough, I’ll just explain that my hair was 110% FRIED. Since I treat my hair like a living, breathing organism (that burrows into my skull and tells me what to do!!!) I decided that after so much trauma, it needed a little TLC. Now, I’m not really big on spending money, but for my hair I always make an exception, so I went to Sally’s Beauty Supply Company and purchased some Last Call Hair Masque and something new called Argan Oil.

First, I will say that Beyond the Zone’s Last Call Hair Masque ($0.99 at Sally’s) is a MUST when considering your poor hair’s aftercare. I would absolutely give it 2 thumbs up. Seriously, as much as I love my hair, this product makes me want to damage it more often so I can use it more frequently! xD (Not really, but still…)

Second… Argan Oil. Yes that was a sentence. This product is so incredible, you should -and pay attention, because this is my best advice ever- go to the store right this second and buy some. @_@ Seriously. Okay, so maybe I’ve gotten ahead of myself here… What is argan oil, you ask? It’s oil derived from argan trees in Morocco. Basically, these trees are dead and lifeless and ugly and serve no purpose… BUT. They survive. They survive in the most extreme desert heat and drought… The oil these trees produce makes a good hair care product because it does the same for your hair! And if you bleach, dye, or heat-treat your hair as often as I do, this really is the perfect preventative step to healthy hair. It’s a little on the expensive side ($10 for a 2 oz. bottle of oil), but you don’t need to use any more than a few drops, and the results are totally worth it. It also smells nice and makes your hair feel 10x softer.

Another plus to buying this product is that it makes use of an otherwise unusable resource, makes money for the poor country of Morocco, and it is environmentally friendly because its profitability has encouraged more protective measures for these trees (i.e., less people are destroying/burning down these trees).

Anyway, that’s all I have for y’all today! I still haven’t tried the Argan Oil Styling Creams or Shampoos yet, but I’ll keep you posted! Please feel free to leave any comments if you’ve tried this product or know of any other products that simply blow your mind! 🙂 Until next time, have a happy hair day!
