If you happen to be on the lookout for a new dentist, might I suggest finding one with an office in close proximity to an Ulta? Because, and I say this from personal experience, you will never miss another cleaning if you can simultaneously promise yourself that you can go to Ulta afterwards. LOL!
This celebratory hair haul happened this week because — woo-hoo! TMI moment ahead — my gums are in grrrrrrreat shape. My pockets are all twos and threes, with nary a deep pocket in sight.
Hence, the aforementioned victory lap around Ulta, and this much-needed hair haul!
First, the backstory… I went to put my hair up before work the other day and realized that most of my black ties and bobby pins were gone.
SERIOUSLY, where do they go?
(Does anybody actually look as cute as this girl on “The Fit Girl Club” headbands packaging when they work out? Because I look much, much scarier than she does when I drop down to do burpies…)
Anyway, I’m stoked about these bungee elastics because I read somewhere that one of my favorite hair stylists and makeup artists, Britt Sully, loves them for creating unfussy, casual cool-girl hair.
Also, I really hope these no-snag elastics do what they’re supposed to do, because I’ve been wearing Dutch braids quite often lately, and the elastics I’ve been using (I think they’re by Goody) keep breaking on me, and I pull hair out every time I remove them.
Really, how long do you think it’ll take before I lose these black hair ties? Honest question.
I give ‘em about six months before it’s “Welcome to the abyss!”
Last, but not least, I grabbed a bottle of this silicone-free Beauty & Planet Tea Tree Oil & Vetiver Radical Refresher Conditioner to use as a co-wash…
I used it last night after I got home from HIIT class. The tree kinda felt tingly on my scalp (but not in a painful way), which I liked, and today my hair feels wonderfully clean, bouncy and light.
I’m into it!
So, back to that other question… Do you have any idea where all the black hair ties go?! I think they end up in a parallel dimension, and when we lose one in this world, our Doppelganger finds them in the mirror world…
Your friendly neighborhood beauty addict,
Karen
Could you describe the smell of the conditioner? I’m curious! ???
That’s just Tabs’ way of saying hi. As I recall, he was the master of “relocating” hair ties and other small items. 🙂 Or maybe they’re just hanging out with all those missing socks. HAHA! You and I have the opposite hair trouble – yours needs the heavy duty ties and holders. My ponytail is only about the circumference of my ring finger (slight exaggeration) so hair ties just slip out.
My hair ties always disappear! They go into another dimension.
I just did a haircare order from Sephora with my VIB discount. I got the Verb Hydrating Shampoo and Conditioner and the mini sizes of the Kérastase shampoo and conditioner. I need to schedule s trim too…
I have a dentist appointment this month but it is not near Ulta.
In my case, I know exactly where all the hair ties go: out the door with my nieces. Along with my bobby pins, my socks, and a great deal of my money. ?
The girl on that headband packaging has never done a burpee in her life. She’s still at the age where she could eat the entire Shake Shack menu and lose 5 pounds. Sigh… those were the days.
I’m still in serious love with my Olaplex set from Sephora. It is correctly named Hair Fix, ’cause it sure fixed my dryness situation in a hurry.
I buy my granddaughter endless hair ties and put them in a shell ? dish in my bathroom .
And they always disappear!
So I will make a trip to Ulta and buy
more .
Oh the pain of going to Ulta !
I love every product I’ve tried from that Beauty & Planet line! I’m going to pick up that conditioner next…
