14. 10 Months

Well, I can't say I've been doing a great job at blogging! Nothing wrong with that. Usually means I have been enjoying my life instead of filling it with internet time!

Speaking of time, its exactly 10 months away from my WEDDING! Those are words I never thought I would type, speak or write down. Ever! Needless to say I am getting more excited each day.. and more nervous! In a good way. Planning is quiet at the moment. Hopefully I can stock pile all my energy and save it for when things start to really get crazy around March! I'm guessing sleep will no longer be in the cards about 6 months out. I get a little to anxious in any exciting situation. This being my wedding, I'm sure my ever present anxiety will be in overdrive! 

The other day I finally treated myself to a 'real' haircut! I say 'real' because for the last  years I have been cutting my own hair. Not exactly ideal. Luckily, it never look horrible. Needless to say it was great going to a salon and being pampered a tad. Doesn't hurt that my hair is finally looking healthy and has more than one layer!

And a quick pic of my hair! 

P.S. Thanks again to everyone who helped vote in the contest.We didn't win... but there was a lot of effort put in by a lot of people! Thanks Again!

11. Hair Guacamole?

Yes, you read that correctly. Hair Guac! Okay, okay I fib. Well, I did use avocado in my hair... but I left out the other ingredients. ;) I did however make a nice little hair mask. I found the recipe on thebeautydepartment.com . There's only consisted of avocado and olive oil, but I thought I would try and amp it up a bit by adding a few other products. I threw in some honey for extra shine and argan oil that I mentioned in my diy leave in conditioner post last week. After blending it all up I jumped in the shower to wash my hair. After that I got out and applied all of what I had made. Took a blow drying to it for a little over a minute and left it in for a little over 30 minutes. 

After I finally had all the nasty green stuff out I just left my hair to air-dry. The product left my hair a bit limp due to the oils, but I should have only put it half way up my head, not on the scalp. I really liked the fact my hair was really soft and had a lot less frizz. The results only lasted about a day. after taking my next shower I had to wash because the oils built up REALLY fast. So less is more in this case! 

Next i'm going to do a home hand milk bath. I've always wanted to do that so I figured I would share that as well. 

Hope everyone is having a great week. Don't forget to go vote on the contest my fiance and I are in!
