On Shampoo, and Other Important Matters

Wow, I didn’t realize it had been so long since I last posted here. I just haven’t had much to say, I guess. But now I’m back, so let’s talk about…

…shampoo?

I have finally found a shampoo which makes my hair silky soft and shiny, smells wonderful, and makes me so happy I want to give a bottle to everyone I see so that they, too, may know the joy of beautiful hair.

It is Bumble and Bumble’s Gentle Shampoo (and Super Rich Conditioner). And it costs $25 a bottle, so once my travel-size sample from Target runs out, I don’t know what I will do.

Eat…or buy shampoo?

I also got my hair cut yesterday, which is contributing to the “I finally love my hair!” feeling. I like it longer, but much past my shoulders it degenerates into a mess of split ends and frizz, so I put up with it as long as I can before bowing to the inevitable and having 5 or 6 inches cut off. And then I revel in how bouncy and healthy it looks for a few months, until the cycle starts all over again.

While I’m recommending beauty products, can I tell you how much I love Clean Provence perfume? I never like heavy, perfumey smells, so this is perfect – very light, and smells of lavender and lemons and freshly-washed sheets. It makes me think of spring.
