Keratin Treat – It Works!

When I returned from Mexico my hair began to feel like crushed tortillas.  I don’t’need to tell you what my hair color ended up to look like after 6 days in the pool and sun.  Funny thing is I did not notice the hair damage right away.  Took me a few days to notice my damaged hair.  OMG!  It was horrendous! The more I blow my hair, and hot pressed it, the more it felt and looked like old dolls hair.imageThen Sunny  texts me this picture.  She was showing off her new keratin treated  hair.  I texted her back, “Love it!”

Wow, her hair looked really  good.  Then the light bulb  went on.   A Keratin Treatment!  That is what my hair needs.

I immediately dialed J City Hair and made an appointment with Alex  to get a haircut, color and Keratin healthy.

When I arrived for my appointment I saw my hairstylist blowing someones hair.imageThat someone was Erin, my  daughter-in-law.  Had not idea she would be there.  Guess I was not the only one who needed an after holiday hair fix.get-attachment (1)

This was  Erin’s first time at J City.  I was a little concerned. What if she did not like the way Alex does her hair?

But Erin did end up liking the cut and the style Alex gave her… She looks happy!

imageThen it was my turn to have hair look good.  I was under the hair dryer for the color, then under dryer for the Keratin.  I thought I would never get out from under that stupid dryer.

Why I don’t look so happy.

After 4 long hours of salon sitting.  I was done.image

Now I am happy.  Color looks good, and my hair stopped feeling like crushed up tortilla’s.  Keratin treatments do give hair back its life.  Now I get to enjoy the treatment for 3 months.  Do wish the color could last that long.

My Red Exercise Ball

I keep this exercise ball in the ladies room lounge at work. Everyone is welcome to use it whenever they like.  I make a couple of trips to the ladies room during the day and that’s when I sneak in a little exercise.exerciseball2

It’s easy, fast and I feel energized even with a couple of moves. I never get bored because there are so many different ways to use it.

Ravioli Pizza is a once in a while treat at work.   This is how you can make it at home, you know you want to 🙂 You’re welcome.

Pick up some pizza dough from your favorite pizza shop or make your own. This recipe works on pita bread too.

Press dough into an oiled 15-inch pizza pan. Drizzle with olive oil, then top with 1/2 cup tomato sauce,  ravioli,   garnish with grated cheese, dried oregano and 2 cups shredded mozzarella. Bake until golden about 15 minutes

This is a lot of pizza and one slice will be all you need. Serve with a salad.
