Primping in the Rain

The start of the year is bound to bring the cold and the wet, but just because I know it's coming doesn't mean I have to be happy about it. If I have to endure yet two or three more months of this, I might as well look good. When you wash your hands as many times a day as I do (gotta keep the money makers clean, who wants someone with dirty hands touching their face?) the cold weather just kills. KILLS, I tell you. I combat the urge to dunk my paws in a vat of extra virgin olive oil by slathering them when I can with hemp lavender lotion. The wet, on the other had, makes a joke out of my regular grooming routine. I, like most women, tend to heat, blow, and brush my hair into submission. Granted, I'm not trying to look like an Oscar winner every day, but I at least want to look like a hairdresser. If your a member of the frizz fighting force like I am then you know that the wet is just a big, fat, raspberry in our direction flat out disrespecting our hard-worked locks with it's humidity and ....wetness.

Count this as your get-out-of-jail-free card, today you get to be lazy! Since your not gonna win a bet against nature and the rain, join em. If your hair has absolutely any wave to it at all, you can use the raunchy weather as a curl amplifier. Towel dry that hair and work a curl amplifier into it, making sure you get from the ends to the roots. I really like ISO Bouncy Cream. No one wants hair that looks like uncooked Top Ramen, so ditch the crispy product. Bouncy Cream leaves the hair with all that awesome natural curl, but with that softness. If the stiffened ends of your hair could put an eye out, time to switch product. Those of you blessed with that perfectly straight hair, pull it back today. All us hairdressers got together and voted and looking like a wet seal is so not this seasons look. But you know your locks are lovely most other days, so this is your lazy day too. Put on a big soup pot and enjoy the rain!
