Her EVEN SHINIER Hair:

It's Saturday morning, and that means sleeping in, enjoying my caffeine addiction in peace, and having time for my extensive grooming needs. I'm more effort than a pedigree poodle.

I decided it would be the perfect morning to try my sample of Bumble and Bumble's Quenching Masque from the Chalk PR blogger's event. It's for the 'terribly thirsty' hair, and as I mentioned earlier, mine is prone to desert-like dryness.

So I wash my hair with the usual (economizing with Pantene 2-in-1 at the moment so I can buy Christmas pressies), get out of the shower, throw my pj's back on, smother my hair in BB Quenching Masque, and putter about for ten minutes. I enjoy my coffee and wonder when my flat mate will have slept off her hangover enough to make a brief appearance (apparently not before 4). I, on the other hand, had responsibly stuck to white wine at my work, white wine at the gay bar, and topped it off with a greasy yaki soba to ensure a headache-free Saturday. Result!

And same goes for the Quenching Masque! Though the cream goes a little stiff while your waiting for the ten minutes to pass before you can wash it off, it immediately softens back up in the shower. As I blow dry my hair straight, it maintains a pleasant coating of moisture that makes it easier than usual to style and avoid frizz. I think we have a real winner here!

Now I'm off to get a much-needed fringe (and for my Canadian friends, bang) trim.

Her Shiny Hair:

Yesterday evening I had the pleasure of attending the Chalk PR blogger's event, and got a bag full of lovely samples to try. It was the dreaded hair washing day this morning, so I decided to make waking up 15 minutes earlier less painful by trying out the TommyGuns Jasmine & Wild Nettle shampoo and conditioner.

The smell is delightful, very fresh and revitalizing, which is excellent for a non-morning person like myself. Seriously, I could not be more polar-opposite to a morning person. Waking up before 10 am makes me want to cry. If I could punch the person that invented the 9 to 5, I would.

Anyways...  Both products go on lightweight even in the shower, and leave your hair feeling soft and shiny, light and bouncy all day. I have horribly dry and frizzy hair, and I must say that I was pleasantly surprised after one use! Definitely recommend these products in the wet London weather.
