NAUGHTY (knots) HAIR// Beauty

 


A HAIR DILEMMA



Since the start of the pandemic, and all the lockdowns and restrictions, there was one thing 
we haven't been able to do. GET A HAIRCUT:  (was possible, but i felt not safe to go)
At the start it was about shoulder length, now its above the waist. 
 
So after such a looong time the hair became  longer and longer.  At first it was fine, but the longer it got the harder it became to keep it from tangling . Anyone else have this problem??

This week I tackled the knots and matted area at the base of the neck.  WHAT A PAIN!
After the major comb out it was time to wash it . 


The PROCESS 

STEP 1 
use a shampoo with conditioner 
a 3 in 1 shampoo  

STEP 2
Repair and care conditioner  without paraffin 

I had to apply extra to the matted, knotted parts and let sit
30 minutes at least. 
then rinsed out with tepid cool water. 

STEP 3
once completely rinsed out , time to work on the knots and matted part. Let hair dry , then using
a wide  tooth comb  and  slowly working on sections to remove the knots.
This is the longest process and take times.  

The matted section , taking the comb try loosening it by sticking the  comb into the mat , then with fingers gently wiggle the hair, pulling gently to loosen the matted piece. Repeat till the mat is completely removed. If no luck the only other option is snip, snip. 

TIP 
Key to keeping knots  or tangles out is using a conditioner on your hair.
Something i had not done. The conditioner smoothes the surface of the hair strands , so hairs slide and 
don't get hooked  causing the  tangles then knots. 

Product used  Pantene ProV  which i have used in the past. works well for
my hair type. I have used professional hair products also. So whatever product you like
should work.




But now it is time for hair cut!!
No more KNOTS for me!







KEEPING IT SIMPLE

I like  the look of this simple pony tail 
, but there are so many ways to style longer hair.

From the low bun  to a top knot.
I wear mine mainly  tied to the side or clipped back.





How do you wear your hair, long or short?

Flying high // travel

B  Time to Fly   Sumer holidays are around the corner and deciding where to go or what to pack can e daunting experience.  So what to pack ? Well after reading how some airlines charge passenger to check the baggage. First I believe the budget airlines started , but now the big name ones have also started to charge it! American Airlines , southwest , Air Canada .  And the extra cost if is a jackpot for the airlines.  I have not travel with the budget lines but have used some of the others mentioned  and  I won’t be booking any trips with them!  Really what do they think? If the operate a service to transport you and your belongs  that should be included , NOT an extra expense.  Give you an idea of what they collect in these extra fees  then read this report via BBC.  Truthfully people need to tell these companies  NO .  Even a handbag is next to the list.   They are making BILLIONS from from these extra fees!...

THIS and THAT//fashion , festival

 Season Changes Well it has finally cooled down which makes it bearable to be outside. Naturally the swimming pools , lakes and rivers have seen plenty o people .  Festivals , Films  and Fashion  The festival season is winding down,  but one that I anxiously wait for is the Venice Film festival. A movie and fashion lover can’t miss it!  The return of Clooney on screen in  Venice with his gorgeous wife is a highlight.  Her fabulous fuchsia gown with the train was stunning . She stole the show!  Of course there were other stars on the red carpet  but no outstanding dresses .  Movies some are getting mentioned . For myself I’m not  sure what I be tempted to watch.  Julia  Roberts new one about college professor sexual harassment is a serious topic . Not light entertainment.  One film with Helen mirren, pierce Brosnan  about senior mystery book club sounds like light entertainment. The actors are all over 60 , s...
