Confession: I have been using the same contact lens case for about eight months (possibly more). I do clean it regularly and disinfect it with alcohol, but still live with the fear that I might get an eye infection and go blind. So, I resolve that today I will buy a couple new cases and will save my vision.
We are definitely in high humidity mode here in Birmingham, and I'm suspecting around the rest of the south. I was in Florida this past holiday weekend and by the end of my trip, my smooth hair had turned into a tangled mass that I could no longer run my fingers through. Think Carrot Top meets Courtney Love, who seems to have notoriously frinkly hair (frinkly= frizzy+crinkly).
Later on, while mulling over the disaster that had been my hair, I came across an article in a beauty and fashion magazine (oh, I guess I'll say it...Lucky) about a new Philip B. product that just might be the answers to my humidity horrors. It's called Russian Amber Imperial Shampoo and is available on the company's website. Now, here's where I should mention the fact that the shampoo is $140 for a 12 oz. jar. However, it's apparently a miracle shampoo (And aren't they all, all miracle shampoos?). The miracle is that it supposedly does whatever your hair needs, whether it be curly, straight, or frinkly. It's said to fight the frizzies, rejuvenate, and add bounce to your mane. Besides, with a stately name like Russian Amber Imperial, there's no way they could sell it for just $9.99....
If it really does all of of these wonderful things for your hair, then $140 a jar would seem like a bargain and I'm sure Southern women everywhere would be more than willing to give up a few mani-pedis to get a hold of a jar.
Question for you: What's the most you've ever paid for a "miracle" hair product? For me it was about $100 for a few Nexxus Shampoos and conditioners that, upon use, did not work for my hair type.
