Your probably thinking ,"What is this girl talking about?" Well, I have decided to no longer use shampoo or conditioner!!! (Dun Dun Dun) Yes you heard me right. No more shampoo or conditioner for me.
I got this crazy idea from two of my friends who happen to be sisters. They began blogging about there decision to join this group of the "non-pooers!"
My first response was among the norm. Nasty! Disgustumondo! But then I was like, "Hmmm, Why would they do this and what are the benefits?" They are both amazing moms and I've always looked up to them. (Even though I'm probably years older.) So I began to look further into it.
Sooo, here is the reasons why.
I have very thin hair and always have. After having my babies I began seeing that my hair was thinning a lot. Like seriously! Not even kidding. My husband would look at me and say,"Awe, babe your going bald again." Isn't he just Special! How sweet to inform me about something that I already knew. Just pushed a baby, the size of a prize winning watermelon out, but never mind that,lets just comment about my going bald!
The doozy though was after I had my third baby,Averie. I remember looking at my reflection and could not figure out what was different about me. Then it hit me my eyelashes where totally gone. They were my Fav too. You know when your friend asks you," so what do you like best about your body?" Well mine was always my eyelashes, and she'd be like" What thats not a body part." and I would say," Uh, yes it is! It's a part, on My Body!"
So, I apparently I have some sort of weird hormon thing that sucks up my hair. The Dr. did all the tests and I'm good, just going bald. Sort of. But it was scary. I started using a very expensive, or what I thought was expensive, shampoo and conditioner. And just like magic my hair began to look thicker. But like I said it was expensive. Sorry kids, no dinner tonight. Momma needs to wash her hair. Haha. jk I let them have a snack.
All of this to say, my name is Jennifer Pena and I have thinning hair. I'm doing this for healthier hair and just a healthier me. I'm not expecting everybody to jump on board or to even understand. I've never been one to follow the crowd. And had I not met Jesus, I would be a full fledge Hippie living in one of those cute little vans with pretty painted flowers.
This is me,
JeniiMarie
