Mederma…Does it work?

February 23, 2010

I’ve seen the commercials, I’ve heard the hype, but now I’m going to try it out. I am purchasing Mederma first and foremost for my 3 year old, who fell and cut open his forehead (requiring 5 stitches!).

Banded Bun Tutorial

February 22, 2010

A lot of people make buns when their hair is wet. I’ve tried this and it looks nice but it doesn’t work for me for several reasons:

My hair is very thick and takes fo-evah to dry. My hair will remain damp for days in a bun.
Wet hair makes my scalp itch
I will sometimes notice breakage

February 15, 2010

Somehow, my braidout is still hanging in there but just barely. This weekend has been crazy for me. I had to spend the night at a hotel unexpectedly, so I pulled my hair back in a puff loosely with a scarf for the last few days. It’s frizzy and less defined, but it works.
