Ladies let me introduce you to Clairol Natural Instincts.  A healthy hair colour solution for you to blend away first grey’s. Clairol.com states that “Natural Instincts is rich in antioxidants and free of ammonia, so you can feel free to use it month after month.  And the more often you colour, the helathier your hair looks!”

Take a look at Clairol’s Fact or Fiction Quiz to help you debunk some common grey hair myths:

Question #1:  Your hair can return to its natural colour even after going grey?

Answer:  Fiction.  When a hair loses it’s colour, it will never return.

Answer:  Fact.  Women often go grey around the age of 34.

Question #3:  If you pluck one grey hair, two more will grow in it’s place?

Satin Pillowcase Prevents Wrinkles

March 12, 09

A few days ago a good friend of mine told me that I should start sleeping on a Satin Pillowcase to prevent frizzy hair and the early onset of wrinkles!

So, of course I came home and did some research.  Here’s what I found:

Satin Pillowcases are not only soft and luxurious – but they’re also a budget-friendly way to give your hair a special treatment.

The smooth feel of satin may help to maintain your hair’s moisture balance, prevent breakage, split-ends, tangling and even frizz!

And, if that’s not enough, Satin Pillowcases may also help fight against the early onset of wrinkles, allowing you to wake up with smooth skin!

Has anyone ever tried this?  Please let me know your thoughts!
