I spray a little of this on my pillow for sweet lavender scented dreams

talking hair our dirty secret

                            Beautiful weather beautiful hair, it must be Spring!
                                      
I love it when I dream and immediately wake up and remember the nights fairy tales with a smile. Last night I dreamt of Paris, working on a brides hair and arriving to the destination by boat, not a yacht but a darling little ferry! I think it probably had to do with this luxurious page I was looking at or this book I was reading before dreamland.  Upon shredding files of years past I came upon my travels past and present. It has been 8 years since Le Bon Vivant en Paris for me. When in Paris or daily travels, a day or two without a wash is fine for some cool hair styles. Even 3 days you could freshen up with this product Five days with out washing is dirty hair! Because I care I am going to share a little secret with you, dirty hair does not make healthier hair. Often the reverse effect happens and the hair cuticle (hair closest to scalp) becomes clogged with build-up. The result; dull, dry, hair and don't stand too close to me hair! The alternative, using plain old apple cidar vinegar does wonders for clarifying hair as does this shampoo. I also have a doggie remedy for apple cider vinegar but will leave that for another post. Other shampoos like this one from Nioxin I have mentioned before here. Paul Mitchell's Tea tree  also works wonders as well as this  Lavender scented shampoo. Lavender is such a calming scent.  I would also attribute my sweet sleep to the lasting aromatic scent from this candle I burned last night, purchased after following this tweet from Sephora.  I leave you from some inspiring photos from this lovely model.
Bon Jour!

Gina - I adore this post!

The images, your written portion - beautiful! Your tips and ideas are always so helpful and leave me wanting to try something new: Apple cider vinegar it is! I find that despite all brands, after using the same shampoo for some time, my hair stops responding to the very thing I purchased it to do, such as volume, scalp care, etc. Perhaps trying something like apple cider vinegar will give it the break it needs.

I hope you have a few other lovely dreams this weekend...dreams are can be so beautiful, especially when in Paris :)
