Best gifts of Christmas

Engaged.
And pregnant.

Unfortunate

Unfortunately I had to stop the shampoo bar test I wrote about in my previous post. After three washing my hair was so sticky I couldn't get my hair brush through. So I can't really recommend the shampoo for anyone with long hair. It might work with short hair, maybe, I don't know.

So.. you'll have to try it yourself if you're interested.

Testing testing

I bought myself new shampoo this week when I was looking for some Christmas gifts. I've tried this scrub from Flow cosmetics earlier myself and last year I bought the Vanilla & Orange scrub as a Christmas gift and it was very much liked by the receiver. But as said I bought shampoo this time. The idea was to try if it would help or at least ease the problems I have with my scalp.

I had my first wash yesterday and as the package "warns", the shampoo left a bit sticky feeling to my hair. The sticky feel should however disappear within 1-10 washes so no panic yet, I'll try it again this week. Anyway, I already found some positive things to say about this shampoo. It didn't leave my hair extra-glossy-glossy but more with a natural looking shine. I also like the fact that it is organic and made in Finland. Even though the product is said to be hemp-peat I found it's smell reminding me of tar. Since I like tar shampoos I don't mind the scent.

I'll update you about this testing. Soon. Because I was sort of thinking this might be a nice Christmas gift as well.. if it shows to be good. And since there is plenty of different kind of shampoos one can buy a soap for each and every friend. ;)

Busy bee

So... I've been unemployed for almost two months now. And as always, that's usually when I get busy. That goes this time as well. Not that I have that much scheduled appointments or anything but.. You know, Christmas is coming, filling all those papers about being unemployed, looking for a new job.. I've done a lot of planning for the future, some necessary interior designing, sewing and knitting, coloring Christmas cards, etc.. And of course,  I had that Mötley Crüe's Final tour concert in Helsinki. This Friday I've been asked to show up on a gig to take some live photos that might be used for promotional purposes.. So, no problems with spending my time.

So there you have it: the reason why the blog has been so quiet. I'll try to catch up now on December but I won't give any promises. Now I'll go back to the world of filling unemployment papers and going through photos so I can publish them.
