Humidity & Hair!
Comments (9)I've got hair that my husband describes as 'feral'...and his is rock-star curly, and longer than mine. Alberto VO5 is my mainstay- yes, I know petroleum products in your hair's not good, but it works well enough that I don't have to put my hair up in a bun when i'm going to the garden shops, or picking strawberries. for 'every day' her prefers a tiny bit of a wazy pomade at the temples, and simply doesn't wash out the conditioner (biolage something or other) to keep his curls soft. I've also heard that WELLA jsut cam out with a new anti-frizz pomade, and if it's as good as their new Wellatrex line- I'm all over it.!...See MoreOye, my hair's too short!
Comments (47)Thanks everyone! I still like it. :) Eileen - A good multivitamin and B I always thought were very good for hair. I take both. I attached a link with more info. on more specific vitamins and minerals. I will say, like anything else, I don't believe all vitamins are created equal. Sounds like not all of your hair was lost? That's good it's growing back but more importantly it's great you're doing much better. :) *I have no idea what vitamins they have on that site or how they are. I just did a search for vitamins for hair. Here is a link that might be useful: vitamins for hair...See MoreDo u have a humidity gauge?
Comments (8)Thanks for the responses! Rhizo, yes ma'am, I'm drinking water, TY!! Tommy, AR sounds similar to AL (and why not, only 1 letter different, right?) Winter's a box'o'chocolates. K8, that's a good question... So, besides a humidifier, what are ways to create some humidity? (Some more effective than others, and some depend on your style of dwelling.) Don't turn the heat so high. Boil water (add herbs to make it "potpourri".) Partially machine dry laundry (I do this so the fabric softener sheet can do its' thing,) then hang inside. I don't do this for all items, just those that hang easily, I kind of poke through the dryer after about 15 mins & choose some things to hang. Also, by removing at least 1/4 of the stuff, the rest dries much more quickly, saving me $. A wet towel spread on a mesh/wire-type surface would do a lot more than the cliché bowl of wet gravel/pebbles since there would be exponentially more surface area from which evaporation would occur. Fill bathtub or sink with hot water & let it steam. Open bathroom door ASAP after a steamy shower or bath. When using oven, put a pan of water in there (if it won't negatively affect the way the particular food cooks.) Group plants together. What else?...See MoreDo you use gel in our hair?
Comments (24)I'm looking for one. Had a favorite but it is no longer made. (Lange was the brand, not L'ange.) Have some Suave extra hold mousse. Doesn't do much. Also some Paul Mitchel styling gel that is better but not as good as the old stuff that I ran out of. Tresemme gel isn't too bad. Have a travel size package of the Tresemme. Don't like it enough to buy a larger size so save that one for trips. Had some Rusk mousse that was pretty good but liked it less the more I used it. Never had any love for the Aussie products--just OK is all. Just got a haircut; chopped off a bit longer than LoneJack's. The longer & limp was driving me nutz! Winter hair/ lack of humidity & my natural curl deserts me. Ugh. Looking forward to garage sales this summer so I can stock up on an assortment of products to trial for cheap. Maybe I'll get lucky and find some of the Lange that I really liked....See MoreBumblebeez SC Zone 7
