Hump Day Hair

Good evening ladies, Eleni here!
You've all been so good with our contests! It's one of the things we all love about megsmakeup, how responsive you all are and how wonderful it feels to be part of a community. You really amazed us with the hair disaster stories you shared and we kept reading them and laughing SO much, you don't even wanna know. It must be pretty hard for you to share a "how I got bold" story knowing that there are a few hundreds of women out there that are going to laugh their asses off. But you still shared and that's very brave of you and that's why we love you!
So, to freshen up your memory, you were competing for three amazing Profound Beauty Limited Edition Styling Kits.
This is pretty huge - and we want to be fair, so once again, we'll let YOU decide you wrote the best story!

There are three different categories, Arctic Straight, Tropical Curl and Desert Volume and you get to pick one winner for each category!
Pick the story you liked the most, or the person that you think deserves the the kit the most!
Or just play favorites and vote for your friend. We won't judge!
You'll have enough time to decide, we set the deadline for Sunday January 31st at noon, so there is one whole week of voting!

Ladies and gentlemen! May I have your attention please! It's Jeanasina's Body Beautiful Wednesday and have I got some products for YOU! If you are wearing a hat, babushka, or ski mask today to attempt to hide hair you feel is not appropriate for the human eye to observe – people – release your hair! I'm here to tell you there is a company called profoundbeauty and they are specialists when it comes to hair dilemmas! If we were in the south I would surely declare that I am here to testify! That's right – I am giving a huge “Amen!” to a product I tried this week that rocked out my hair totally!

I know you are riveted right now and I can't say I blame you because sisters ...I am here to tell you that one amazing company called profoundbeauty has impressed the blazing daylights out of me! Our lovely sister Megan sent to me a box which contained THREE – let's count them together – THREE awesome products in one box! The products in the box are called “Desert Volume” which is a 3 step system designed to hush frizz, enhance volume and deliver clean, humidity free texture to your hair!

Sweetassgal here expanding my hair horizons with a new product I have never heard of but am having AMAZING results with in just two shampoos!  I've often droned on about the difficulties of curly hair.  Mainly being that it needs massive conditioning to stay shiny, bouncy and healthy looking.  Before my hair went curly I had to shampoo almost every day to keep from looking like and oil slick.  Now...I have to go at least 2 or 3 days without washing, I use a deep intense conditioner every time, and I top it off with 3 pumps of an oil based hair emollient that is really meant for just occasional conditioning.  Even with all of this I am often left with dried out and frizzy hair by my second day after shampoo.

Enter in Prive Concept Vert Rejuvenating Pure Shampoo.  In reading the bottle I noticed right off that it has lots of wonderful natural properties.  "Enriched with Amazon acai and babassu oil, Prive CONCEPT VERT #101 rejuvenates hair with antioxidants and strengtheners as it gently nourishes and cleanses.  This high-yield formula expands into a rich, creamy foam leaving the hair feeling and looking shiny and healthy." 

MissRo here! When it comes to my hair, I am constantly on the search for products that will help keep my curly locks frizz-free. It doesn't matter if I'm keeping my hair curly or blowing it out straight, I need products that are going to tame the frizz.

When I was doing some research online, I came across the Mixed Chicks brand. I instantly perked up, because I am a mixed chick! My Mother is Jamaican, Scottish and my Father is Polish, Jewish. I thought, wow, a brand specifically for me! I immediately got in touch with them and asked them if I could try their product.

So on Monday (which is my wash-the-hair day, because I only wash my hair twice a week. I'm telling you, it's the way to go. It makes your hair super healthy), I decided to try their Deep Conditioner. It comes in a healthy-sized tub for only...$10.99! I shampooed my hair and grabbed about the size of a large grape of the conditioner. I massaged it through my hair and then combed it through. (Tip - Ladies to get the most out of any conditioner, always comb it through. It helps to get the product through every inch of your hair, but also helps with styling).

Hi Ladies! It's Jeanasina here and I've had yet another hair compulsion moment that I am compelled to share with you. Let's start out by singing a revamped version of a camp song...ready.? You'll pick up the tune soon and can sing right along with me...here we go...”If you love coconut and you know it wash your hair, if you love coconut and you love it, wash your hair...if you love coconut and you know it, don't be afraid to show it...if you love coconut and you love it wash your hair!” Why am I singing my whacked out version of that tune? Why am I promoting coconut? So here's the deal...

As our story continues, I was walking down an isle at our new and improved Walmart store which had hair products specifically designed for ethnic hair. I didn't even notice that fact, but what I DID see was that Palmer's had a hair care line that was all about COCONUT!!! Let me backtrack a bit here. I have a friend and she and her entire family use daily and swear by Palmer's Cocoa Butter lotion. I mean to tell you that every single time I see her, and hug her, my first thought is....”My God! Your skin is always so soft!” She of course tells me for the billionth time that it's the Palmer's brand lotion she uses. She swears nothing else is as good. So...I did go out and purchase Palmer's Cocoa Butter lotion and it does remarkable great things for your skin but I just personally cannot get past the cocoa butter fragrance on me so I passed it on to my Harleyman Husband who thinks it's just right! So...armed with the knowledge that Cocoa butter by Palmer's rocks out skin, when I saw that Palmer's makes COCONUT products for the hair...well honey,.., let me tell you, I HAD to stop and read the labels! It did not matter to me who this product might be designed for specifically, the fact that it had the word COCONUT in prominent letters on the container just said to me “YOU ARE GOING TO WANT THIS!”
