Jupiter Balance Shampoo & Nourishing Conditioner

I have long thick naturally curly hair. I get Brazillian Blowouts every three months. I was using a shampoo and conditioner that I love and still love. Yet, recently my scalp kept feeling itchy and irritated even after a fresh wash.

Now this does not happen to me a lot and I have a hunch that a lot of it is product buildup. I decided to do a little research. The most common causes of itchy scalp is seborrheic dermatitis. This is caused by an overgrowth of yeast on the scalp. For mild cases this can be treated with over the counter selenium and zinc pyrithione. So, I sought out to find a shampoo with one of these ingredients free of sulfates, parabens, and other nasty ingredients.

Jupiter Balancing Shampoo seemed to check all the boxes as it contains zinc pyrithione and lots of natural ingredients to help balance and remove buildup. The nourishing conditioner contains soothing ingredients like colloidal oatmeal to help calm the scalp.

I plan to use this shampoo for several washes before returning to my usual shampoo that does tame my hair a little better. Jupiter shampoo and conditioner did calm my scalp and drastically reduced the itching and irritation after one one wash. The zinc pyrithione in the shampoo combined with ingredients like colloidal oatmeal in the conditioner calmed my irritated scalp and reduced the itching by 95% after my first wash. This product is also great for all hair types.

My hair is naturally curly, but I like to wear it very smooth and straight. I get Brazilian Blowouts every ten to twelve weeks. The Brazillian Blowout Shampoo and conditioner are great. I still use Brazillian Blowout styling products, but for my thick curly hair, Pureology Smooth Perfection shampoo and conditioner smooth my hair out the best.

Pureology Smooth Perfection shampoo and conditioner tame the frizz and calm my hair. The formula has shea butter to smooth the hair and sesame oils to keep the hair hydrated. Also in the formula is Camelia oil to fight frizz at the very source.

This unique compound also contains an exclusive Thermal Anti-fade complex to keep the hair shiny and healthy. The Pureology line is sulfate-free and helps maintain color and chemically treated hair. After washing, conditioning, and styling, my hair is a lot smoother and sleeker. I would definitely reccomend this product for those who want to tame frizzy and or color/chemically treated hair.

Dyson Supersonic Blowdryer

The Dyson Supersonic Blow dryer has revolutionized the conventional way we think of and use a blow dryer. For me, it is a time saver. I have thick curly hair. The comb attachment, easily helps me dry and straighten out my hair simultaneously.

The diffuser attachment, literally sucks out all the moisture, my wet hair holds. I am literally done in 20 minutes, and then I run a flat iron through my hair, to smooth out all the bumps. This makes it well worth the investment. The blow dryer works on all hair types.
