Wen Re-moist Intensive Hair Treatment

I just recently bleached my whole head, and I'm going for WHITE! :) And needless to say, I fried my hair. So I just wanted to do a quick thumbs up for Wen Re-Moist Intensive Hair Treatment. My mom uses the shampoo and she get this in the mail as well... So I figured I would give it a try since I had nothing to lose and I didn't pay for it. ;) Anyway, you're suppose to leave it on for 35-45 minutes, and I didn't even do that! I didn't wait that long because I didn't feel like standing in the shower doing nothing.. it's not my thing. I have shit to do! I did leave it on for a good 15-20 minutes and I can't rave about it enough! It made me hair feel so soft and look so much better. I would definitely purchase this if, for some reason, I could no longer mooch off my mom. ;)

Brassy Hair & Paul Mitchell Platinum Blonde Shampoo

Ever bleach/highlight your hair & not get the outcome you were looking for? Your hair has  been lifted but has orange & yellow tones? Yuck. This can also happen simply from fading as well. I have been blonde for some time now, but  recently went much lighter. Instead of just getting my highlights, I got an extremely light blonde base color with platinum highlights. I must say that the lady did do an excellent job, but there was still some brassiness to it from being the first time. So I searched on the Internet and was reminded of Violet/Purple Shampoos. The Shampoos are REALLY Purple and I was scared of them. I've heard some people claiming that it can tint your hair purple! This true if you continue using the product for too long or if you simply don't have an issue with brassiness. So I went to my local Ulta & talked to the girl about my issue and concerns. She recommended Paul Mitchell's Color Care Platinum Blonde Shampoo. My friend who is a hair dresser told me to only use it once a week, but the girl at Ulta told me I could use it until the brassiness was gone. It only took 3 times to correct the brassiness. I tryed to lather it only into my roots because that's where the brassiness was. The rest of my hair was fine from being highlighted so many times prior to dying. I'll continue to use it as needed. Probably once a week or every 2 weeks.
