refreshing

Okay..so as you all may know... or may not know :) I have another blog...
http://www.bristynicole.blogspot.com/
Which I have fallen behind in blogging... I just started blogging so my friends & family can keep up with me, and my family.. See pictures, and get a peek into our lives... I think it's great... I barely have any time to have an acutal phone conversation with anyone these days... If anyone has a 15 month old, a 6 year old, a husband, a doggie, and a full time job.... You should understand.... If you are reading this and saying you don't understand.. go ahead and start a blog and name it SUPER MOM :) ..send me the link..
     ANYWAYS.... I have created THIS blog.. for different type of stuff... fashion( I feel so weird saying that... idk fashionistia..maxxinista.. haha :) ) for fashion, tips that I NEED, tips that I may have.. blogs I like... etc.. Just a whole learning process for me... and posting my feed back on certain things like that.. I have kinda started that on my FB and have had many tell me to just start a blog for it... here goes :)

DRY SHAMPOO****

I have never been a fan of dry shampoo... well actually lemme take that back, I have never been a fan of "TRYING".. I just didn't think it would actually work on my grease bomb hair.. so it's been years of me washing my hair at least once a day, many times twice a day ( if i was going somewhere later in the evening) .. i am just an oily person, and it SUCKS..
So YEARS later... I have read in many blogs about dry shampoo.. I have heard great things about the Kenra Dry Shampoo... Well I was at TJ MAXX  ( I know, I have NEVER bought product from there before, and I don't really recommend it, since it's not actually from a salon) HOWEVER... I thought why not try it from them first to see if it is any good AT ALL... So I bought it for cheaper..
this.. right here

I have heard it comes in spray (which I use) and powder(which I will try next)
  you can purchase this on http://www.sephora.com/
The spray one I got from TJ MAXX didn't last too long, & I am not sure if it's because of where it came from, or the actual spray... I would say it lasted 2 weeks.. I have read reviews online that say the powder lasts longer.  I ordered another can, because I wanted to see for myself and try it out..

Application can be kind of tricky. Be careful not to overdo it because you can be left with powdery hair. Here’s how to use:

• First, shake the can very well before use.
• Lift sections of your hair, and while holding the can 6-8″ away, spray product toward your roots.
• Wait a few minutes for product to dry.
• Use fingers to shake out the excess product.
• If you want, brush through your hair at this point to evenly distribute.

If you are a blonde, this is a definite plus, because it makes your roots look fresh, and like you just got a dye job! SCORE!! :)

Picture Before:




And After


It may be hard to tell a difference in these pictures, the lighting was WAY off..and these were taken with my camera phone..
but, it worked.. i promise
and i am so sad without it, i am hoping my shipment gets here reallllllllllll quick!! :)
So if you are in the need of some dry shampoo, or want to try some..

go getcha it, please leave your feedback, too!!

 That's all I have time for right now.. Will update some more lata!!:)

ENJOY.
