How To Grow Your Hair Faster


Hey ladies,

SO you want to grow your hair longer?

Here are a few tips to get the length that you want fast!


  1. You have probably heard of this tip already, but \it is crucial. Don't brush your hair when wet! It is like a rubberband right after you wash it and easier to break. I  don't even use a comb because there is still that risk. 
  2. Keep any kind of chemicals away from your hair. During the summer our hair can be doused in chlorine and other pool chemicals. Bleach has the same effect: i.e. chlorine bleach. These dry out and strip natural oils from the hair shaft leaving it dry and brittle.
  3. No heat! Unless you make sure to use a heat....and UV protectant? A heat protectant spray that contains a uv protectant will safe guard your hair from the sun( I like Not Your Mother's Heat Protectant) 
  4. Instead of wearing a tight ponytail - let it loose. Having a tight ponytail puts stress on the roots and hair by pulling out hairs when making the ponytail tight and breaking the hairs as you keep tighening the ponytail.
  5. Brush hair in moderation - Brush your hair at least once a day, but no more than two times because brushing can cause breakage. Not brushing your hair can also cause damage because you have to get out more tangles the next day.
  6.  Keep your hair moisturized. Dry hair is harder to brush through and can lead to damage. I heard Mane N' Tail has a great conditioner.
Well.. that concludes my list, but if you have any more suggestions then please leave a comment for everyone else to see.

Review: One Love Organic's Skin Savior

Hey lovelies!

I know I've been slacking on the posts, but you can read my last post to find out why.
To make this post as short as possible I'm going skip the tangents and get right into the review.


I received this amazing jar of product in my Birchbox a couple of months ago and was just using it as a nightly moisturizer every now and then. This moisturizer is sort of grainy, but it smoothes quickly into skin and you only need a very small amount. I love using it at night because it can be used as an eye cream and facial moisturizer. I love the light lemon meringue scent because it only lasts for a couple of seconds.

I found the creator and followed One Love Organics on Twitter. Then I decided I would tell them how much  I love the "Skin Savior". The company replied and said that this product isn't only amazing at moisturizing skin, but can be used as a leave in hair conditioner, lip balm, cleanser, and cuticle cream. I was flabberghasted by her reply because I could put it in my hair?! I was a little afraid to at first because I thought my hair would get too oily. When I finally did, it was like love all over again because it made my hair silky, smooth, but not too oily. It is great at detangling as well. Just use a litle amount at the end of your hair and work up so that it won't get too oily.



I'm so sad that I'm almost finished with the jar, but it did last me at least 3 months. Should I splurge($68 for 3.5 oz.) and get more?
