NOT EVEN KITTEN!

Right Meow, Cats are the It Thing! I wouldn't be surprised if you have at least one or two feline-loving friends on your Christmas list! You don't have to be an actual "cat lady" to love cat-themed shirts, watches, socks, and so forth. You might just be in love with how purrrty they are and want to sport some trends on your own catwalk! Here are a bunch of fun kitty items priced under $100 that you may want to ask Santa Claws to bring you or you may want to purchase to scratch off your shopping list!

Unite and Stay Safe

Well, as if things weren't bad enough before the United States Presidential Election, it's almost impossible to turn on the TV, go on Social Media, or even go out in public without witnessing racism, sexism, hatred, fighting, and divide in the world. Living in these times where there is so much disconnect, my heart cries. I thought we left all of this in the past. I had such high hopes for the future. But, people are hurt and NO ONE should have to suffer from being who they are!

My mind was completely blown yesterday when I saw the Safety Pin Movement that was started in the U.K. in June. I actually had a thought a few months back after experiencing so much racism in front of my face...I said at the time, "I wish I could wear a sticker every day that said 'I LOVE ALL PEOPLE'". Well, the Safety Pin is just that. It's a way to unite. A silver safety pin is a symbol that says "I am safe. You can come to me whether you are black, white, gay, Muslim, and so forth and I will love you".

People have been pinning the safety pin to their shirts or jackets so that they can be spotted by all. It's such a special movement and something I want to be part of - especially after I had to personally stop a racist moment yesterday which I could NOT believe was actually happening. I protected the person being hurt and I felt great about it ever since! Being able to use my voice and stand up for a fellow human being, was one of the greatest and most rewarding moments of my existence.

I was always taught to love everyone, so I want everyone to know they are loved by me! This is a great  easy way to do it! And, while it originally started with a silver safety pin, it seems as though you can now wear the pin in style if the movement is close to your heart. I found a bunch of neat accessories to help you spread the message. Keep others safe!

THE WRONG WAY IS THE RIGHT WAY!

MIND = BLOWN! 
For a little over a century, us women have been shampooing our hair and THEN conditioning it. Well, forget what you know and what you've done! TRESemme has released Reverse System which requires you to Condition FIRST and Shampoo SECOND. Sounds crazy, right? I mean, the crucial part of conditioning my hair last was that I would then be able to get a comb through it without tangles, so I was a little leery about switching up my routine. Okay, a lot leery! I did it though and I can't even express to you how amazing this stuff works! You see, conditioner weighs your hair down which is why you want to use that first and then wash it out by shampooing. This gets you volume. Not only did I have the volume, but I have never had my hair so shiny, smooth, and soft which I thought I would lose after I washed the conditioner out. I was wrong. And, it was really shining! Like, it almost looked fake like hair on a Lego person! I was in disbelief.  It was so soft that I couldn't stop touching it.
So give it a try! 
Reverse your routine! After all, the same routine gets boring and change can be a good thing!
