I like the idea of wearing a headband. They can be really cute and trendy and an easy way to dress up a hairdo. (Or glam up an otherwise, you know, bad hair day.) I mean, how gorgeous are these?! Target also has some really darling ones, several currently in their jewelry department. … [Read more...]
Free Nexxus Sample
July 21, 2010
A couple of weeks ago, I shared that I save money on haircare with the Suave Professionals line. Another way I save is by requesting free samples whenever possible. In this case, you can get a free Nexxus Shampoo (retails for $8.99), Conditioner (retails for $13.99), and Deep Conditioner (retails … [Read more...]
Goody Spin Pins
July 19, 2010
A few weeks ago, at Target, I found the craziest-looking hair product: the Goody Spin Pin. What is it? Basically, the two spin pins take the job of a dozen bobby pins in securing a bun. Because of the spiraled shape, they grab onto all kinds of layers of hair and help hold the bun in place … [Read more...]
Summer Hair Help Needed
July 14, 2010
When you live in Georgia, summer vacation is spent at the swimming pool. Honestly, it's just too darn hot to do anything else. When you live in Georgia and have a daughter on swim team, you tend to spend even more time at the swimming pool. Swim practice is three days a week, plus swim … [Read more...]

Quick Holiday PSA
July 5, 2010
I won't bother with posting a super-awesome post today because I hope most of you are lounging poolside on this long holiday weekend (at least, I hope you are). Instead, I will remind you to slather up with the highest-SPF sunscreen you can find. Ears, eyelids, foreheads, hairlines, backs of … [Read more...]
Suave Professionals Hair Conditioner
June 24, 2010
I grew up in a family that only ever bought Pantene Pro-V or Herbal Essences shampoos. But when I got to college I realized I had no money and needed to tighten my belt. Then I graduated from college and realized I needed to tighten my belt even more... because I still had no money but now I had … [Read more...]
A Good Hair Day — They Finally Bottled it
June 2, 2010
Summer usually means lots of heat, lots of humidity and -- if you're prone to frizzy hair like I am -- lots of bad hair days. My hair is fine, with a slight wave to it. There's not enough wave to make it look decent, but just enough bend that you want to straighten it out. So, I usually do. … [Read more...]
A quick tip
May 13, 2010
I'm a busy mom of 4. I wear my hair in a ponytail A LOT. And I do have thickish hair, but ever since my haircut, my ponytail has been looking a little sad. A few months ago, Trina blogged about her fabulous (and cheap!) backcomber find so of course I picked one up at my local Sally's -- for … [Read more...]
