Time has been flying by! It's been a while since I last blogged anything worthwhile because I have been extremely busy (what's new, right?). For starters, I'm enjoying my new job. My new work hours are 9 to 5 and being able to sleep in with little Emily has been AWESOME! I schedule certain weeks where I go to the gym at 5 am with my older daughter, we get ready at the gym, and I drop her off at the bus stop to get to school. By the time I get home by 6:30, my husband is ready to go out the door and Emily is still sleeping while I can enjoy a healthy breakfast and coffee.
I love not feeling rushed anymore and even more importantly, I no longer have to deal with the horrific traffic to get to downtown. I now work 7 miles away from home. My office is about 2 miles away from Schofield Barracks where my husband works and I never have to touch the freeway unless absolutely necessary. Just those few changes in my schedule have lessened my stress and rejuvenated me.
As you know, I test many products for sellers on Amazon. One particular line I want to blog about today is Luseta Beauty. A few months ago they sent me a slew of their products. The ones I continue to use and truly enjoy are the Argan Oil Shampoo and Conditioner, the Argan Oil hair Masque, Dry Shampoo, Dry Conditioner, and Macadamia Hair oil.
I am starting to grow my hair out and do suffer from white hair problems. I stopped going to the salon for chemical treatments. Instead, I use organic Henna to color my hair. I apply the henna in the morning, wrap my hair up and continue my day. I wash it out in the evening.
Since using Henna, my hair has changed from a brittle and frizzy mess to a much softer and smoother head of hair. Depending on how much I sweat (gym time, heavy activities), I try not to wash my hair with water more than 2 times a week. If I had a hard work out in the gym then I do wash my hair because that's just yucky.
However, on days where I've had a light day, I use the Luseta Dry Shampoo and Conditioner spray. I've been doing this for a few weeks now and every day I have been getting complimented on my hair and I was flattered because I didn't do much to it. I don't use hair spray.
Just this past weekend I got compliments on my hair being "on point" every day. It makes me feel great and I am happy with the changes.
At night after I shower, I use the dry shampoo and lightly apply a few spritzes along the roots and then massage and brush it out. That helps to absorb any oils from my scalp. In the morning, after a quick flat iron to smooth out the bed head areas, I lightly spritz the dry conditioner on the ends and massage and brush through.
On the days that I do wash my hair, I use Luseta's Argan oil Shampoo and Argan Oil Conditioner. Once a week instead of using the conditioner, I use the Argan Oil Hair masque and I must say that the smell is fantastic and my hair is very soft, bouncy, and shiny after I use the masque. I do not blow dry unless absolutely necessary.
After a thorough washing and towel drying, I apply a very light amount of Luseta's Macadamia nut oil for hair. This too smells great and helps to keep my hair from frizzing. In Hawaii, the humidity kills my hair style. But with this light oil, it really helps keep my baby hairs in check.
I thought I'd share this here since a lot of people have been asking what I have done to my hair. This transition has been ongoing for about 4 months or so now. With Henna hair coloring, I don't think I'll be coloring my hair with chemicals ever again. And the only reason I'd go to my hair stylist is for a trim.
