The Big Deals About Sulfates

Why are sulfates the big bad wolf of haircare? They starts a cycle that make hair dry. The solution : break that cycle with products that are free from them.

 

 

The villain ingredient in cosmetics right now are sulfates. Most of us have heard(perhaps not everyone) that they should be avoided and that they are harmful. Few of us know, or what they do.

Also commonly found in household cleansers under the name sodium laureth sulfate, ammonium lauryl sulfate and ammonium laureth sulfates. Sulfates are the lathering agent that clean your hair and create foam and froth when you shampoo. Why are they getting the bad press? They literally strip hairs moisture and skins essential oil.

The worst part : most women ( i'm talking about the whole world population ) think that working up a great BIG lather when they shampoo will clean their hair more effectively. But what really is happens is the start of the vicious  cycle. Sulfates strip hair oil, causing it to become dehydrated and frizzy. You then slap on conditioner to try and reduce the frizz. The silicone-loaded conditioner coats your hair, weighs it down and makes it greasy, so you more shampoo and so it continues. . . . . . ( you get what i mean?) (>o<)/

Add to that exposure to the villain's sidekicks - UV-ray, over heat styling, stress, chemical treatments and excessively brushing - and you end up with a HALO unmanageable frizz. So, how do you restore your hair's former glory? Look for sulfates-free shampoo and silicone-free conditioner. I know there's people who wants to see the immediate result but none silicone base conditioner or treatments doesn't show it infront of our naked eyes, in fact you wont even feel the immediate result. These products restructuring your hair from the inside which you only can see it under 200x zoom lens. 

Still, if you insist of feeling the result from the outside of the hair, opt for leave in treatments that gives you few benefit such as heat protector, detangling and repairing. 

Always remember one this, GOOD THING AIN'T CHEAP, CHEAP THING AIN'T GOOD. You pay for the ingredients, not the packaging or the brand ( although this is all counted in the products itself ). A good products lasts you up to 12 weeks and above depending how often you use.  

Facial hair

Hello Hello there people. Lately i found out that mustache on men is soo smexy that you bet almost every girl on their late 20's onwards will be turned on. (>o<) . Seriously, i have never fond with mustache until recently after watching some Japanese drama actor with mustache. It's such an amazing sex appeal i should say. Here's the question, I was thinking of growing some because it's about the time around my age to have some ( hahaha, well i mean it). People who viewed my look from outside just couldn't tell what's my age, but that's just a number to me since growing old doesn't mean you have to look old, right?

Since young, i have never really shaved my face till today. So, basically, my facial hair seems pretty fine just  like the hair on my arm. That means in order to achieve a much fuller facial hair, i will have to start shaving. \(>O<)/  *shocked*

Here are some few look i was planning to achieve. Pretty smexy right? ^^

Tired work, tired legs

Ughwah..... I'm so tired... Recently the work has been getting quite tiring. Thanks to the company who does the G-coupon thingy. Well, it's not like i'm complaining. I had fun attending all those people who brought the g-coupon voucher. Getting to know some new people, exchanging some information, digging some money out from their wallet and hopefully they will come back looking for me again.  XDD  That's work for me. All i need after my working hour is a good dinner which is my regular Yong Tau Foo. Why Yong tau Foo? Because you get to choose what you want when it comes to the vegetable or the fried fish ball thingy. Next, i will head home with my food and turn on my laptop to watch my current drama. The GTO jdrama. (Great Teacher Onizuka)

You might want to check out this movie because it's a remake of the older version during 1999. This remake has much more impact compared to the old one. I like the expression of this guy who portrayed Onizuka. It does resemble the manga Onizuka Sensei.
