Tuesday is the day I share the products we use or tips that we love to make life easier.

Today, I want to tell you about a few hair products I/we use.

My hair gets really dry. I wash and dry it daily, so that doesn't help.

Once a week I use CPR. I try to focus on putting it on the ends of my hair. My hair dresser told me to also put my hair in a "cap" for 10-15 min. I usually skip the cap. It really makes a difference. The first day my hair is a bit "oily" if you will.
You can get it at SallyBeauty.com for $6.99.

The next is my daily conditioner. I use L'oreal Vive Pro for dry and damaged hair. I have tried other more expensive, same priced, etc conditioners and this is the best that I have found. It does the trick. Here's the write up on it. Specially formulated to add moisture, Vive Pro Hydra Gloss Moisturizing Conditioner by L'Oréal incorporates an omega-moisture complex to infuse hair with glossy shine. Enriched with Omega 3 and 6, royal jelly and olive oil, this shampoo penetrates each strand for lasting moisturizing protection. (13 fl. Oz.) I get mine at WalMart for under $3.00.



We also use a clarifying shampoo once a week. Usually Suave, but if there's another on sale, we get that. The clarifying shampoo works wonders for getting the old build up, etc. out. For a time, C had a hard time getting a certain part of her hair cleaned. She has really thick hair. Since she uses the clarifying shampoo she has had no problems.
Hope this helps. I know sometimes the best things I have learned was from word of mouth.
Have a great day.

I have told you that we had to get a new coffee pot a little while ago. Well, here's what we got! Our Mr. Coffee is AWESOME! Here's what we love about it.
*The coffee is filter gives it a really good (for lack of a better word) taste that we noticed with the very first sip.
*The coffee stays hot for at least two hours!! Which dh really loves.
*You can set it for regular or strong brew. The regular brew is already stronger because of the filtration.
*It beeps when it's done. (the little things)
*It stays on for two hours then shuts off.
*It looks classy!
*When you put the pot in, it just slide right in. You don't have to push it to get it in! ( I love this feature.)
*It feels sturdy.
*****Note, this is similar to ours, we did not pay that much either.******
Have a great day!
