Girl crush... Is that bad

With the good bye of Amy Poehler on SNL, I was really heart sick. I didn't know if I could continue watching. Of course there would be funny skits, but would they be as memorable as "Really" with Amy and Seth on Weekend Update. Would there be the infectious laughter of Lil' Amy that makes the jokes even better, the uncanny Hillary Clinton impression that even makes Hillary think she is a not ready for time prime player on SNL, the ghetto fabulous Bronx Beat that makes me want to move to the Boroughs to practice my own New Yorker accent. 

 Amy Poehler will be missed by many including myself, but man do I Heart Kristen Wiig. This love affair started when she did the sisters skit spoofing The Lawrence Welk show. I think I watched it 194 times, cried because I was laughing so hard 54 times, and peed my pants twice. I still chuckle thinking about it. From that one skit I started crushing hard on Kristen. I love her in her sweaters, wigs, and cat voice. Kristen Wiig I am your biggest fan.



Here is just one of her wonderful skits. I want to hang out with Kristen.

Static?

With winter comes static hair, and as a hair care professional I feel like it's my duty to give a few tips to hopefully get us through this.

1. scrub your hair with baking soda. Yes baking soda. Put some in a bowl and take it in the shower with you mix it with your shampoo, scrub and rinse. You might want to shampoo again. The baking soda helps to remove build up, that makes it hard to let the conditioner in. IF you have just colored your hair I would suggest waiting a week to do this.

2. Try using a leave in conditioner. Sexy hair's whey leave in conditioner is light so it won't way your hair down. It also smells very good! (which is always a factor with product) Also deep conditioning is a good idea.

3. Try to not play with your hair to much during the day. The more you touch it just seems to make it static. I'm not a scientist I just do hair. 

4. Dryer sheets they make your clothes static free try running one  through your hair. 

5. Abba makes great shampoos and conditioners. Their moisture conditioner is especially great  I think, again my opinion, that it helps control the hair. Also pureology's hydrate shampoo and conditioner, but abba is a little more affordable. 

6. Less is more, don't over do the product, this is true any time of the year. use a light texture paste if you want, but definitely finish with a little hair spray. Either spray directly on the hair, or on to your comb/brush and then brush your hair. But this would have to be done few time through out the day.

I hope this helps if there are any questions feel free to ask maybe I will know!

Snow PLEASE!!!

Me and Teagan are bundled up and ready for some fluffy white moisture. I think that I'm the only one that looks forward to this time of year mostly for snow. I LOVE IT. I love the smell, the ring around the moon just before a big storm. The foot on top of my car that I have to shovel off, because it gives me an excuse to bundle up and kind of play in it. The way it makes the world sparkle. Sweaters, puffy coats, boots, scarves, mittens, hats, hot chocolate, fluffy socks. Every year all I want for Christmas is a white one, so please please please snow already.  

baby hands

I love this picture, it just shows why I no longer can wear earings, necklaces, my hair down, eat with her on my lap in peace. It's so fun to see her explore the world at an arms length!
