Romeo and Juliet right? “Let down your hair…deny my….something something….” It’s been awhile since I’ve read Shakespeare, you’ll have to forgive me.
This post is dedicated to a new friend from church. She’s a brand new mom. While we haven’t spent much time together, we’d been in the music team for a while together now. Anyway…I was thinking about things that help me as a mom…and these tips below are some of those things.
However, don’t we all have an issue with our hair? I’m pretty sure if I didn’t blow dry my hair straight every once and a while, I’d have a permanent kink in my hair where my ponytail/bun/mess is on top of my head daily.
Here’s some links to some great tutorials on how to make your hair last for a few days. I love trying out new, fast, simple ways to do my hair. Bear in mind that these tips are for longer hair.

This is how mine looks after I “kind of” follow the above blog post. As you can see I’m a real winner on taking self portraits (and now I see how bad of a crop job I did)…ya right….

I read this really great article from Bethany Joy Galeotti on oily skin/scalp and dry shampoo. Read it-it’ll change your life..aka-more time in the morning…at least 4 mornings a week! I never could only wash my hair a few times a week, until I discovered dry shampoo! Life changing! And such a time saver!! Ok, so some people find that gross, I however was one of you. Read the article. You’ll understand why I tried it! And seriously, it only took a week before I noticed an decrease in the amount of oil! Anyway!
Here’s my favourite dry shampoo by Ojon. A bit more expensive than Tresemme Dry Shampoo which works about the same, but has that white residue (that does come out once you brush a lot!)
Hopefully with these tips you can “Let your hair down” more often…even if it is just while watching “Clifford the Big Red Dog!”
