You mean your hair isn't supposed to feel like hay?

I'm a little over a week out from my haircut, and the beginning of healthy hair.

I've found that my hair doesn't feel terrible to run my fingers through it, and even when I put products on my hair, it's not weighed down as much as it's been in the past.

I'm not sure if the chemical make-up of my hair has changed, or if it's because my hair is so short, I'm always running my fingers through it, but it's very oily.  From Scalp to to ends, it's very oily, and it's causing my hair to come up with some strange hair styles.  :) 

But I also have to say because my hair seems to be rid of that dead stuff, my hair is more prone to do weird things, like get stuck standing up.  I think before, my hair was so heavy and unhealthy, no matter how much hairspray, gel, mouse, blow-drying, etc., it would never stand up.  It was always weighed down.

This is what Rosa gave me to fix my mess of a mop of hair.  Joico's K-Pak Shampoo and Conditioner.  These products work to smooth over your damaged hair with Keratin. 










I'm also using "It's a 10" mask on my hair for 10 minutes every 4 days.  This is what sexy looks like while the mask is on.  The great thing.... with the cap, I can wander around my house and vacuum if I feel like it.








And this is my hair, after shampoo, conditioner, mask, Products, and a hair dryer.  Yes, I know it looks horrible, but it's entirely user error.  I have no idea what I'm doing with short hair, and none of my brushes, heat tools, etc, work with no hair!

Keratin Treatments

One of the big fads right now is Keratin.  All you hear is Keratin this and that.  There's even been a case on The People's Court about a failed Keratin treatment (That's when you know you've hit it big) :).

BUT, has anyone had one done?  If you have, what did you think?

I have to say I love the idea of not having frizzy hair and having it stay straight longer.  BUT, I'm not so crazy about putting formaldehyde in my hair.  However, to be honest, do any of us really care about what chemicals we put on our hair, or how bad they stink, as long as they do what they're supposed to.

I say this, as I haven't permed my hair in 11 years, and I just had one done yesterday.

Shhh... I haven't told my husband yet. :)
