ACV Rinse=BEST FREIND




I tried an ACV (Apple Cider Vinegar) rinse the other day after my shampoo, the Sunshyne way, and I've realized what I've been missing! It does make your hair hold moisture better, it makes it smooth, and makes it have a natural shine.
I used:
1/4 cup of ACV and 2 cups of water in a applicator bottle, shaken, not stirred...LOL.

I finished my shampoo, DC, and for the final rince, after rinsing out my DC, I squirted the ACV rinse all over my hair from root to tip. I started at the top of my head going down. I squeezed the excess off through the ends and then rinsed with lukewarm water.
Here are some pros and cons, thanks Sunsyne :):

Pros:
- stimulates hair follicles
- hair takes longer to dry (indicates that your hair is healthier)
- holds moisture better
- hair is smoother since cuticles are now tighter and laying flat
- more shine

Cons:
- you may smell like vinegar if you dont use something in your hair afterwards (your leave-ins should take away the smell)
- stiff, hard hair IF you dont use the right amount of ACV and water. The ACV has to be diluted.

*You can find it at any local grocery store.

Hope you try it and like it too, let me know!

Wii!

Hey all!

Recently I had been slacking off working out on my Wii Fit, I went a consecutive 34 days not "measuring in" or doing a body test training. For any of you that have a Wii Fit you know it keeps perfect track of when you play, the amount of days, and everytime you train as well, so it shows...LOL.

Yesterday when I got back on, my body test was surprisingly the exact same as it was last time, no increase or decrease. I discoverd or "unlocked" a new game as well, boxing aerobic training. I've gotta say, I didn't think I was going to like it, but it really burned some calories and has my shoulders burning. I usually stick to the Yoga and Strength training, but I will definately be adding boxing to my workout.

It's a great cardio workout as well as strength training, but I still have my eye on the new EA sports Active game. I don't have it yet, but I'm seriously thinking about it. I'll keep you posted.
Toodles..

Boot Scoot n Boogie!


So, tonight I'm going Line Dancin'...I'll be sure to add to this post when I return. ;).

I loved it when I was a kid and continued to love it when I use to teach 5th grade, we did line dancing in the afterschool program where I taught. It was great and not to mention, burned some calories... stay tuned...
