Sea Salt Glows


Glowing radiant skin doesn't just happen, right? As a mother of four, I can honestly say NO! At least not for me! Who has time with today's hectic schedule and demands!? But, give me an hour at the spa and I will not only have beautiful glowing radiant skin, but I will be much more relaxed, healthy, and ready to tame my lions.... I mean kids.

What is a Sea Salt Glow?

A Sea Salt Glow treatment has many beneficial factors. The salt glow provides needed exfoliation while providing you with soft, hydrated, and glowing skin. The service also provides a simple and light detox all while providing a wonderful experience with its aromatherapy properties.

Exfoliation

Due to its rough nature, sea salt is considered a natural exfoliate.  As the scrub is massaged over the body, it gently and effectively, removes dry dead skin. In return, this service reveals a glowing and more beautiful radiant you!
Sea salt is packed with minerals that provides ample hydration and nourishment to the skin. Essential oils are mixed or premixed into the product being used which has MANY other benefits! The types of oils used in your scrub will vary, which will reflect different results.

Detox

According to livestrong.com, "A sea salt glow helps draw the toxins from the body and increases skin blood circulation...".  Magnesium sulfate, which is found in sea salt, can help to rid the body of toxins from the liver and adrenal glands. More can be read from the International Journal of Dermatology, about the detoxifying effects theses salts may have on the body.

Aromatherapy 

Essential oil are a part of the sea salt glow mixture. Not only do they smell amazing, but they provide a sense of wholeness and wellness all around. The oils can be experienced through inhalation as well as absorbed through your skin. Each oil has it's own characteristics in what it will provide for your body.

Need To Grow Your Hair But Don't Have the Time?

Before

Short Hair, Don't Care...

 

Regretting that shorter hair cut you got? Or do you possibly need a few more inches of hair for a special occasion? How about a little extra body for lifeless hair? In the last blog we covered the different ways to select a wig. This go-around I am going to share with you how to select the perfect hair extensions and why I think this is the solution to EVERYTHING! Okay, maybe not everything.... but close enough!

What are Extensions?


Extensions come in all colors, forms and lengths. You can match them to almost any kind of hair! Just like wigs, there are different varieties to select from. The ones we will be discussing are CLIP-INS! There is absolutely NO COMMITMENT! ( I think that is why I love them the most!)

Composition

Human or Synthetic? Blonde or Brown? Long or Short? These are all great questions to ask yourself before you go "hair" shopping. First, let's take a look at the differences between Human or Synthetic hair.

Human
Human hair will of course look the most natural. Human hair extensions will last longer as well. These can be colored to match your hair color perfectly and can also be styled using a blow dryer and low heat from styling tools.

Synthetic
Synthetic is a good choice but doesn't look as natural as the human hair. When purchasing synthetic extension be sure to buy as close to your hair color because the color can not be changed. When styilng, extra care needs to follow and hot tools can NOT be used! Synthetic extensions must be properly cared for in order to last for a long period of time.

Color
Extensions come in a variety of color! Be sure that when selecting what you are looking for you keep in mind the color that you will keep your hair or any changes you are thinking of making. The more you color or change your human hair extensions the more damage you are posing on the hair. Need them highlighted to match your color? Bring them to your hairstylist and have him/her do it for you! After all you want it to match what they are already doing for you!

18 Inches
 Length
 Extensions come in a variety of length:
  •        18 Inches
  •        20 Inches
  •        22 Inches
  •        24 Inches
   The length will depend on your preference as well as how high or low you place them in your hair. It is best to get with your stylist as well to custom cut your extensions to help them blend with your natural hair.

Now What?

Now that you have a general sense of what you are doing, you can start your search for your new length!  Whether it is to just add extra length or boost your volume, extensions are a easy, no commitment way of getting the job done.
