Bad Hair Day

More like bad hair month! My hair has not wanted to do anything, I wash it, apply loads of styling products, blow-dry, curl, and hairspray and within about an hour it’s flat to my head. My second day hair normally works better for me but now it looks frizzy, dull and dry, I feel like I can’t win.

I decided to head to the salon a little early to get a hair demineralizer and a hair protein treatment. The hair demineralizer treatment removes all hard water minerals from your hair along with salt, and phosphates from water softeners. Basically it pulls all of the buildup off your hair so you can start fresh.

Then I had a hair protein treatment. Hair protein treatments support and help add to the Keratin protein that is already found in the hair. This adds elasticity and strength to the hair that helps with shedding and breakage. The best part is the treatment is weightless, it is a light spray that only stays on for two minutes while your getting a head massage.

The whole process only took 20-25 minutes and I have to say I feel like I have brand new, super shiny, hair that is holding a style again. I plan on having this treatment done once a month from now on and I would especially recommend it to anyone who is trying to grow their hair out, colors or perms their hair, uses a pool at all, or just needs a hair pick me up.

At Samsara Salon and Spa:

  • Demineralizer Treatment-$15
  • Protein Treatment-$25

Tea Tree Oil

So all of the girls at work make fun of me because tea tree oil is my Big Fat Greek Wedding Windex equivalent. If anyone has a problem I recommend tea tree oil.

Tea tree oil can help treat:

  • Poison ivy
  • Rashes,
  • Acne breakouts
  • Razor burn
  • Bad boyfriends
    …you name it and I think tea tree oil can help!

I first learned about it from a friend that recommended it as a natural treatment for a keloid (fibrous tissue that forms at the site of a scar or injury) I had growing on my ear from a cartilage piercing. I was almost about to go to a doctor and have it chopped off, but after applying tea tree for about a week it disappeared. I was hooked and after a little research found many many other uses for the magical elixir, tea tree oil.

The best part is that 100% tea tree oil is just one ingredient derived from a leaf in Australia, so most people do not have an allergy or skin reaction to it. It is also antimicrobial, antibacterial, anti fungal, and antiseptic. Here are just a few more uses for tea tree oil…….

  1. Bee stings
  2. Bug bites
  3. Yeast infections
  4. Acne
  5. Razor-burn
  6. Nail fungal infections
  7. Minor cuts and scrapes
  8. Cold sores
  9. Minor burns
  10. Eczema, Psoriasis
  11. Earlobe cysts and Keloids from piercing
  12. Promotes healthy scalp/ treats dandruff
  13. Inhale to treat coughs and colds

Tea tree oil is effective against mites such as scabies, lice, and head lice.

NOTE: Tea tree can be toxic if swallowed and can be toxic for pets even topically.

Everyone should have a bottle of 100% Tea Tree Oil on handTea Tree Oil
