I have continued my quest for the perfect hair products and now that my hair is growing out again it continues to be a challenge. As my hair grows it tends to feel BIGGER not LONGER, especially when it is anywhere shorter than my chin, like it is now. I have fairly fine hair but I have a lot of it and I like something which makes my hair feel thicker, but not greasy and heavy.

I tried every gel ever and it just made my hair poofy. I tried the Bumble and Bumble Styling Lotion but it just made me feel like I poured a melted candle on my head. No thanks! I like the Styling Cream better but that seems to only work on my longer hair.

Finally thanks to a $2 off coupon at CVS I decided to try this Cristophe Hair Tonic and I think I have finally found the right hair product for my icky in between hair.

I start with a combination of the Paul Mitchell Super Skinny Serum (which, do you blowdry your hair? BUY THIS. It cuts your drying time way down, which is a must for me since I blowdry every day) and this Kiehl's Heat Protective Silk Straightening cream (I rotate between this one and one by Biolage although that tends to be heavier for me and better to use on longer hair, just mid-length down). Then spray the Hair Tonic on my roots at the crown of my head and then just a little bit all over (if I go overboard I get that weighted down greasy look, not so cute) and then blow dry my hair all over. It is actually weighing my hair down JUST ENOUGH that I don't need to use the straightener on my annoying little curls, even in this summer humidity.

Who knows what I will have to do when Fall rolls around. And now you know everything there is to know about my hair! You're welcome!

Do you use the Microdelivery Peel by Philosophy? Why not? It's fucking awesome. Yes, it is $60 but that set will last you at least 6 months. So that's $10 a month for gorgeous skin. Great on sensitive skin too. GET IT.

June, July, and August are crazy birthday months for me. Not only is it my own birthday in July (the 16th, if you are keeping track) but it's my dad's, two of my aunt's and uncle's, a cousin, two dear family friends, and countless girl friends. Well, actually, if I am counting there are eight ladies I know who are bron in the summer months. 

So, since I do not believe in the whole "No presents for my birthday" rule (because that's lame. Come on, we might be grown ups but everyone should still get some presents. Your birthday is once a year, embrace it and let your friends buy you a gift) I have to come up with something so I don't actually go broke.
