Hair with benefits.

A year ago sometime this last week or so, I decided to cut my hair real short. I was excited but nervous that maybe it wouldn't look too great. I had it cut by an amazing hairstylist and artist in Vegas, of whom I still try to get my haircut by any chance I get, which has only been 2 or 3 times in the last couple of years.

I had also decided that if I was going to make such a dramatic change on my hair, I had to go all out. I colored and highlighted my hair, and also decided to splurge on some hair product too.

When I had a roommate in Hawaii who knows how to cut hair and was an ex-hair instructor, she convinced me that there is a difference in hair products (in this case, shampoo & conditioner to be exact). At first I was very skeptical, and thought paying more for a brand of shampoo was overrated and just a trap. Needless to say after she gave me some of her fancy stuff, I was converted; I could honestly see/ feel a difference.

So, I bought these two at that hair appointment that day, a year ago.

And guess what? I'm still using them! They are also only 10.1 oz & 8.5 oz, mind you. Yes they cost about double what I would pay at a store for the stuff I would normally get, but I do have to say, the investment has paid off. With the powers combined of short hair and good product that I only need about a half a dime size of each, these bad boys have lasted me a year, and I probably have at least another month left in them. {And yes, I do shower and wash my hair daily, thank you very much}

I feel pretty happy about that.
