Ombre.




Something inspiring: I find some much inspiration from catalogues and little kitschy stores. Because we're on spring break we're going to be working on some furniture for our home and I'm so excited.

Something new: After over a year of hmm-hawing about ombre hair, I finally had it done! Yay.

Something disturbing: The debate in my head on whether or not to go back to my old blog (basically solely because I had hundreds more followers there). I have to remind myself that I blog for ME and not to compare. Humbling moment.

Something I'm listening to: "Sail" by AWOLNATION. Kind of love "dub step".

A Small Hair-acle.


I've been fighting with my hair for about a month. 
It seemed like the roots were constantly dirty/greasy--even after I just shampooed. 

Enter one of my very best friends and her hair-acle (like miracle). After I so awkwardly made her run her hands through my hair and explained my symptoms, she diagnosed that I had a lot build up from my dry shampoo, etc. 

I needed a clarifying treatment. 

So off we trudged to Target in the dark. Bought everything except for clarifying shampoo. 
. . . a candle, Vitamin C gummies, hair ties, thank you cards . . .
But we did score a new friend in the shampoo isle. She told us that I should try vinegar to remove the excess buildup. Sounds like a fun experiment!

Here's my recipe:

2 cups of warm water
2 tablespoons of apple cider vinegar

+Shampoo hair as usual
+Pour solution on your head, focusing at the roots
+Massage in
+Leave on for five minutes
+Plug your nose because it smells
+Rise
+Shampoo again
+Condition

My hair feel amazing!
 I plan on doing this once a month or so. If you decide to try--let me know!
Also, am I the only one who suffers from product build-up? Ew!
