Honey, I love it! Especially raw honey, the one that is a bit bitter and not so hugely sweet. And you can do so much with honey! Honey is delicious in a cup of tea, as a substitute for sugar or on your sandwich. But honey is also really nice for your hair and skin; As a hair mask or face mask. In addition, you have also specific honey species that have an antibacterial effect and help against irritated (scalp) skin. You can also use honey as a natural hair spray by mixing it with water and spraying it on your hair. But did you know that honey can also make your hair lighter? If lemon juice or chamomile tea does not work for you, or is too drying, honey is a really nice alternative to get your hair a bit lighter in color. Honey is also hydrating and makes your hair nice and soft. Honey can also be slightly purifying if your hair get’s easily clean from mild products. But what makes that honey will make your hair lighter? And how do you apply this on your hair?
Less is More conditioners
For a long time I was interested in the Curly girl method; Washing your hair with a low-poo conditioner. I saw many beautiful pictures of beautiful curly hair on the Curly girl facebookpage and I always wondered: Should I try this too? Would I also get more curls if I would wash my hair with a conditioner? I took the decision to give it a try and looked into the method. I searched for a conditioner that would agree to all my standards and found the Less is more brand. Puurmieke.nl sells Less is More and I was very happy that I could try out 2 conditioners from them. The two conditioners that I have tried out are the Less is More intensive hydration Conditioner & Less is More Volume Conditioner.
Guide for the Conditioner only method
Did you know that you can wash your hair and nourish it at the same time with just a conditioner. This is called the conditioner only method and it is often used by ladies with curly hair. This is why it is also called the ‘curly Girl’ method. But this method is also suitable for people without curls! The reason why the conditioner only method is mainly used by people with curly hair, is because curly hair is naturally very dry hair. The root of curly hair is skewed, that’s why curly hair needs more nourishment when you wash is. Dry curly hair can get easily frizzy and the aggressive cleansing sulfates in shampoos certainly won’t help to go against that frizz. In addition, dry curly hair should be nourished regularly to maintain its beautiful curl. Do you have brittle, dry, frizzy hair, and can your hair use some extra nutrition? Then I would definitely try the Conditioner only method! In this guide I will explain which ingredients your conditioner should contain to be suitable for this method.
