Over the years I have had many hair styles. I remember a time when we had to put up with the hair that we were born with or spend two hours a day fixing it. Today we have all types of hair care products, and so can generally have any type of hair style we want in a shorter amount of time. Whatever hair color we choose from the chart can be kept natural looking with products like clairol natural instincts shine, or some other product from procter and gamble. When I go to the salon the first thing I ask is that my hair be styled in a way that I can easily maintain with my very favorite clairol hair products. Does that mean I want a boring hair cut? Of course not! But both clairol herbal essence, and l'oreal have come up with fabulous hair products that work for the everyday working girl. Clairol make everything; shampoo, semi permanent products, conditioner, hair color with different chart, hair shine, hair straightened, lifters, etc. anything you need you can get from your local grocery store. Why would I willingly go and pay $40 for a bottle of shampoo from a high priced salon, when I can find the same type of product at my local grocery store. I'm definitely not that crazy!
