  • Panasonic Nanoe Hair Dryer

    Ever since the Dyson hair dryer came onto the market, I have been interested in buying a new hair dryer. I’ve had the same hair dryer for over 5 years now and I thought it was time for a new one. Black Friday seemed like the perfect time to buy one. I decided on a Panasonic Nanoe hair dryer. I have purchased other high quality Panasonic devices, including a face steamer, and I’ve been very happy with my other purchases so far.

    Most of the time I use my hair dryer to just dry my hair. Normally I don’t spending a lot of time styling my hair with a dryer. I basically just use it as a hot air gun haha. But I have very fine hair, and I do anything I can to avoid damaging my hair. This dryer manages to not only dry my hair with minimal damage, but it barely makes my hair frizzy at all. It leaves my hair smoother and more shiny than if I had air dried my hair. Now thats amazing!

  • How I care for my hair

    I probably only cut my hair about twice a year, if that. You would also probably be shocked to hear that I actually cut my own hair sometimes (O.o). I take off around 2-4 inches or more each time I get my hair cut.

    Did you know that cutting your hair does *not* make your hair grow faster?

    You should however give yourself a little trim if you have a lot of split ends. You can try using a split end mender conditioning product, like some of the items I’ve listed below, but those products can only get you so far and you might need to go for the chop.

    I shampoo my hair “the french way” I’ve been told. I take an empty hair coloring bottle and put a small amount of shampoo inside. I then fill it to the top with water and shake it up. I then use the pointy tip to get as close as I can to the roots of my hair as a gently “rinse” my hair with the soapy liquid.

    Its good to give your scalp a nice massage, even better to use one of these massagers once a month.

  • How I beat the heat

  • Diner en Blanc

    This exclusive event was started by a small group of friends in Paris, but has now grown into a worldwide sensation. Diner en Blanc, which literally means dinner in white in french, is a sophisticated outdoor picnic where everyone wears all white. The big catch is no one knows where the event is going to be held until the day of! When you buy the tickets you select a departure point and you have to get there at the exact scheduled meeting time and thats when the location is revealed. Then your table group travel to the location together as a group using public transportation.
