I have dandruff. This is a new problem for me. You all know I'm an oily bitch, and my scalp is no exception. In the last couple of years I’ve tried really hard to wash my hair less in the hopes that it would make my scalp less oily, but no dice. It was annoying... Continue Reading →
Happy Pride! I was in the mountains. I used some things.
It's June! That means Pride month and rainbows for everyone! But really it's a lot more than that, like the recognition of those who've fought and literally died for the right to live authentically and love openly. Stonewall was 50 years ago, and sometimes that's forgotten in the haze of glitter and balloons and drag... Continue Reading →
January empties
Wow, it's been a long ass time since I wrote an empties post. It's something I did once and didn't feel the need to do again, but since my goal for the year is to use up a whole lot of stuff, I think we should check out some of my trash. Note: this is... Continue Reading →

Wow, it's been awhile since I reviewed a shampoo and conditioner. A friend who happens to be a hairdresser recommended that I try SheaMoisture hair products, and since she knows what she's talking about, I went for it. I like the Peace Rose face mask, and that was the whole basis for me purchasing these.... Continue Reading →
Review: Pantene Pro-V Sheer Volume Foam Conditioner
This is another of the products I received in my Target VoxBox from Influenster. My hair and Pantene haven't ever gotten along. Even back in the early 90s when Pantene was *the thing* I couldn't use it. All of my little friends were these Pantene starlets with shiny commercial hair, and I was using some all natural...
