Clairol Herbal Essences Britney Spears Exclusive Cd

Bindy has endured my inordinate number of idiosyncrasies for nineteen years now. We got a late start, Bindy was thirty five and I was forty four.

A first time for Bindy, she waited all those years for "Mr. Right", I suppose that depends on whom you ask.

Bindy and I met in an Aerobics class, actually more like Bindy entered the room dressed neck to ankles in form fitting Spandex and I knew who her husband was going to be. It didn't matter what her current status might have been, I knew what it was going to be. I just had to find a way to tell her that.

In 1997 Bindy became a certified Jazzercise Instructor and Franchise owner. She now owns and operates two Jazzercise Centers with multiple instructors and class managers and still teaches several classes a week herself. You would never know my Bindy was fifty four years old by the manner in which she teaches, or how she still fills out that spandex.

Chasse forward to June, 2008. Bindy is teaching the class this particular evening and I am filling in for one of the class managers.

One of the frequent attendees walks up to the counter to check in. She is a teacher and has mentioned her daughter is graduating from high school this year. So, it makes her forty-ish but the point is she has a beautifully coiffured short hair style, to which I am partial anyway, and it is in the most gorgeous shade of blonde I have ever seen.

Later that evening at home I mentioned to Bindy how pretty the member's hair was and she agreed with me. She said she had been toying with the thought of doing something similar with her hair. What did I think?

In all these nineteen years I have never seen Bindy other than a brunette, her natural color. Most often in my favorite style which is short, but not as short as Jamie-Leigh Curtis, or similar to Sharon Stone or Meg Ryan when they wear their hair short. To myself I'm thinking "I don't believe it", however I pipe right up and say, "Hey, sounds ok to me".

At Bindy's Jazzercise Centers there are always scads of health and fitness magazines written especially for women within easy reach. For some reason I happen to notice that the cover of the fitness magazine Bindy was reading featured a young woman with an extra firm set of "abs" compared to the usual ladies on the covers. I could see the word muscle in the title so I asked about it. Oh, this is one that shows up only every once in a while.

The next morning I poured a bowl of cereal and thought I should review this new muscle whatever magazine to make sure it was appropriate for the members.

It wasn't "Muscle and Sex Teaser", June, 2008, but it could have been. Why is it 97% of the women in these types of magazines are shown pumping iron, straining, stretching, reaching, running or jumping when they all have at least C cup size breasts but they're wearing B cup size sports bras?

When I put the magazine down I saw the box. The box that said...Clairol Natural Instincts - Coastal Dune - Dark Neutral Blonde.

Dark Neutral Blonde, I wonder if I'll be able to control myself!

Clairol Touch Of Sun, Subtle Highlight For Light Blonde To Light Brown Hair, Lemon - 4.7fl oz - 1 ea

Until a few years ago I had long really beautiful hair. It was the kind of hair people would stop me in the street to comment on. It was thick and wavy and a stunning caramel color of blonde. But one day I can't pin point exactly what prompted me I decided to go blonder. Looking back maybe it was a new job? A divorce? Dating again? Feeling too much like a mom? My Fear of getting older? Once the decision was made however there was no turning back. I decided to color my hair at home on my own. Not in and of it self a big deal since I had a cosmetology license; but did I mention I never worked as a hair colorist?

Well, my hair turned out great and everyone loved it. So the next time I decided I would go a little blonder and the time after that blonder, then one day I decided it was too blonde, and I wanted another change so I went red then blonde again then darker, a lot darker on my own, with no advice from the Clairol Color Experts, or old beauty business buddies, nope not me with the beauty license, I was saving tons of money by doing it myself, besides I was too proud to ask for advice, or was I embarrassed? Or fearful they would tell me to put down the box and call a hair salon specializing in color correction. With the darker color over the already damaged light blonde my hair turned green!

That is when the trouble really began, because I became obsessed with fixing it. I thought just one more trip to the late night drug store for one more box in a shade that will lift out all that brown, that will fix it. I had become addicted to the lure of the 20-minute instant makeover power of hair color. What ever was going wrong in my life I was sure changing the color of my hair would fix what ailed me.

Thankfully, I survived the emotionally crisis of my brief but harrowing hair color obsession and enthusiastically sought out a professional most amazing hair dresser and a more amazing friend for some damage control. Her advice went something like this "You could walk around looking like a blonde hooker or we can cut it off and you can start from scratch, you have the face for it." In the end I opted for the haircut and was relived to have less hair to be tempted to color.

The irony of this story is that in a world of long hair my very, very short hair (think Pink, Mia Farrow from Rosemary's Baby days or Brigitte Neilson or now Victoria Beckham) has been unexpectedly liberating. I no longer spend time working on or about my hair I am out the door in half the time, I need less make up and people tell me I look younger and hipper. That is what really short blonde hair does for you; if it suits you, it is a look. Albeit it is not for everyone, but for me there have been valuable lessons learned. One, you are not your hair long or short, if your life is missing something find out what is and fix it inside. Two, when it comes to changing your look drastically seek out an expert for advice no matter what the cost.

You simply do not need to shell out the big bucks in order to look your best on your wedding day. Don't neglect your beauty and skin care because you feel you can't afford it.

Clairol Shimmer Lights 31.5 oz. Shampoo (Blonde & Silver)

When you are shopping for shampoo in the supermarkets or shops selling hair products, you know there are so many to choose from and it can be tough to know if the expensive brands are really worth the extra money and if all the remarkable comments regarding the benefits your hair will receive from their shampoo are actually true.

According to hair care product reviews by experts most shampoos are effective at cleaning your hair, however all the other things the shampoos claim they can supply may not be true or they may be overstating their benefits.

Hair Salons

Notably hair salons also sell hair care products and they always claim their products are superior to the products you can purchase at grocery stores, however some experts have claimed in reviews that the hair salon products also overstate their benefits. The FDA only has regulation over the ingredients listed on the label thus the manufacturer can claim all sorts of benefits and their products don't have to exactly provide the benefits.

Be wary when you read the shampoo bottle, especially when you discover the claims on repairing or nourishing damaged hair. This is because most shampoos can only provide temporary assistance with regard to the look of your hair. Some experts specify in reviews that they have doubts that natural ingredients found in shampoos can indeed be effective at cleaning your hair. Let's take a look at some of the popular shampoos.

Well Known Hair Products

1) Bumble and Bumble

A popular as well as expensive salon brand named Bumble and Bumble has become popular and a couple of hair care product reviews have stated that their shampoos are gentle on their hair and work well at cleaning hair. The Bumble and bumble Alojoba shampoo received good reviews and a couple reviews mentioned that the product was effective for normal as well as dry hair. In addition to that it did not create a build up in their hair.

2) Clairol's Herbal Essences

Paula Begoun has made many hair care product reviews and she suggests using an anti-residue shampoo such as Neutrogena Anti-Residue once or more per week to scrape any residue you might have in your hair, especially for people who apply a volumizing shampoo to their hair. Numerous reviews by consumers have claimed that Clairol's Herbal Essences is one of the best shampoos for the low priced shampoos. Some reports have claimed that Clairol's Herbal Essences work just as well as the high priced salon brands and is significantly less expensive.

Head and Shoulders

Head and Shoulders is one of the least expensive dandruff shampoos but it doesn't always work for people who have a serious case of dandruff and they may have to use stronger dandruff shampoos. According to experts Head and Shoulders had fewer side effects than other store brands.

It's a good idea to check out hair care product reviews before buying shampoos and other hair care products.
