jojoba oil for your hair!

Now my hair is super blonde it is also super dry. I you remember a few months ago I played around with Listerine for hair growth with meh results. While it felt good and tingly it dried my hair out more and I found no real growth from it. So doing a bit more research I got some rosemary oil  and jojoba and mixed the two together. I got some trader joes jojoba and some Rosemary Oil.

About once a week I comb it through damp unwashed hair and go to bed. The result? Soft shiny no longer brittle and dry hair. The growth has also been kicked up a notch. My hair went from just above my shoulders to just past the shoulder blades. All in two months and that is fast growth for me and my hair had stalled growing before that. The science behind it is that the oil cleans your scalp and moisturizes hair and the rosemary oil stimulates the scalp with a wonderful sent and tingle. Added bonus of the smell of rosemary oil
it increases concentration it stimulates mental activity and is a good remedy for depression, mental fatigue and forgetfulness. So go out and get some oils ladies. Let me know how it works!

BOOKS!!!!


So I joined a challenge to read 50 books in 2012. Here is what I have read so far.

The Red Queen Phillipa Gregory
Not as exciting as the white queen but it was a nice look at the other side. Plus I have all the other Tudor series and needed to read it to complete the series.

The hunger games trilogy! I'm 32 years old and not ashamed to admit I'm obsessed. I read all three books in three days. Exciting and fast paced. I felt the third book was lacking something in the end but over all an amazing series everyone should read. Plus I get to take the kids from work to the movie so I won't be one of those people.

 Pride and Prejudice and Zombies
A good book. A tongue in cheek redo of a classic book. I loved it the action and the love story all rolled into one. I'm trying to get the kids to read it. I felt like I needed a katana to go outside after reading this book ha.

 Dawn of the dreadfuls The Prequel to pp and z. A must read if you have read the other book. It explains why and how the sisters got the training. How they overcame the social mores of the times. Plus it has more kicking zombie ass.

So that is 6 down 44 more to go. I must admit I am a super fast reader and can usually read a 400 page book in about 3 hours. My library card is going to get a work out and I get to discover some great books. I may end up with a few shorter books in there. Does any of my all of 3 readers have any suggestions of what I should read next?
