Wishlist 2010

[certainthings]

Step One: Make an LJ post. It can be public or friends only, whatever you’re most comfortable with.
The post should contain your list of ten holiday wishes, and these wishes can be anything - from simple (a fan fiction written about your favourite pairing), to medium (a DVD you want), to really extravagant (a brand new laptop or car).
Just make sure these are wishes for things you really truly want.

Step Two: Skim through your friends list and see who has posted their own wish lists.
Then - and this is the most important part - if you find a wish you can grant, and it’s in your heart to do so, make sure that person’s wish comes true.
Sometimes a person’s trash is another person’s treasure. If you have a leather jacket you don’t want or a gift certificate you’re never going to use, give it to someone who wants it.

Step Three: Post this wish list any time after November 1st. Then repost it two weeks before Christmas.
You needn't spend money on these wishes unless you want to.
The point isn't to put people out, it's to provide everyone a chance to be someone else's holiday fairy--to spread the joy.
Gifts can be made anonymously or not--it's your call.
There are no rules with this project, no guarantees, and no strings attached.

Just...wish, and it might come true. Give, and you might receive. And you'll have the joy of knowing you made someone's holiday special.

Pardon my ignorance, but...Sam who? Is there a Lost Girl character named Sam that I've missed somewhere?

I'm doing 2 out of 8 of those right now. I call that a win. :D

Very cool - I'm gonna snag this Wishlist meme <3

Do you have thick hair or fine? My hair is fine and I use Paul Mitchell Super Skinny Serum. It helps with dry time, too. But it works well with flyaways and frizzies :)

Frizzy hair... I don't have that problem but I will aks a friend of mine. I think she uses a styling iron or what this thing is called^^ her hair looks very pretty after she used it.

For my frizzy hair, I use Frizz-Ease when I get out of the shower and Paul Mitchell's Super Skinny Serum for any heavy styling (flat-ironing, blow-drying) to protect my hair. I really hate having a lot of product in my hair, which is why I tend to go with the Frizz-Ease because you use less and it seems like you have even less when you put it on damp hair, but the Super Skinny Serum is a lot more flexible as a product. My biggest issue with the Super Skinny Serum is that it's very expensive (it's a salon product, so even if you buy it at CVS or something, you're still gonna pay more than $20 for it), so I try not to use too much to make it last.

When my hair was longer, it was a frizz-box. I tried a bunch of serums and shampoos, and found the serums made me greasy and so did some of the shampoos (they were too heavy, or something?). So I used Pantene Normal conditioner and shampoo (although they've changed it, and now it's for thick hair I think). And I straightened it, just a bit. Got rid of all the frizz, super fast.

A guy walks into a bar and says OW! *rubs forhead* That's the stupidest joke I know

If you ever find anything that helps to tame frizzy hair, omfg let me know. I keep buying products and nothing seems to help.

[popmusicjunkie.livejournal.com]

For my frizzy hair, I:

1. Use a moisturizing shampoo and conditioner.

2. Towel dry my hair then use a small amount of anti-friz serum. (I like the Garnier Fructis Sleek and Shine) If your hair gets greasy or weighed down easily try to avoid applying it anywhere near your scalp. I only use one pump of the serum. And I have a lot of hair. Best trick: squirt the serum into your palm, rub your hands together then apply it to your hair - especially the ends.

3. Blow dry my hair using a round brush. Boar bristles are the best for taming frizzy hair.

4. Use a straight iron to fix any extra stubborn frizz.

5. Finish it off with a tiny bit of hair lotion (got2B Smooth Operator is my favorite). Again, just a little bit on the ends/bottom of your hair. Comb it through using your hands. It is also great for making layers stand out, if you have layered hair.

I only do this maybe once or twice a week when I want to look extra cute. Because it takes me forever to do. Typically I just do steps one and two then throw my hair in a messy bun and call it a day.

What seems to work best for my frizzy hair is coconut oil. Just a tiny amount is enough. You can also use it for deep conditioning. Apply it to your hair generously, then let is sit for about an hour, and then wash. I'm allergic to perfume so there's a lot that I can't use, but coconut oil is awesome. And I buy the stuff that you use for cooking. It's cheap and lasts forever.

* Tell me what you use to tame frizzy hair.

Tigi "Bed Head" Frizz Control is a little expensive (beauty salons sell it), but it helps with frizz. Cuts the curl down too, unfortunately.

Something I tried for Amazon VINEs reviewing was Pantene's Curly Hair control shampoo. I saw noticeable results after using it just a few times, even with regular conditioner (and there IS a companion conditioner for it).

Try the Pantene, because it's probably cheaper than the other and at least you'll use it as a shampoo anyway.

I'm no good for most of these things (SORRY!), but I joined your icon comm.! Happy holidays! :)

(If there are any specific DLs you want--music, movies, etc.--I can probably help in that department. :))

You have curly hair and you don't want to straighten it, you just want to tame it? Describe you type of hair. I HAVE INSANE HAIR. I CAN HELP YOU.

[gwendolynmstacy.livejournal.com]

You asked me a looong time ago so yeah here ya go..

Shampoo: http://www.herbalessences.com/en-US/hair-products/dry-hair/shampoo-conditioner - I usually get the kind with coconut in it if I can

Other stuff: http://www.herbalessences.com/en-US/hair-products/wavy-hair/mousse / http://www.herbalessences.com/en-US/hair-products/wavy-hair/hair-spray-gel

Steps:

1.Use shampoo and conditioner.

2. Towel dry my hair then use a small amount of the mousse (it's a leave in) apply over all to hair and then I comb it.

3. Then go for the spray gel, a little at the top but in particular the ends. (You can spray the gel into your hand and apply it to your hair that way to make sure you get it even)

4. I never never use a blow dryer or curling iron I just wait for it to dry.

Already a member of your icon comm =D And hoo boy, did I take a while to gather this intel on frizzy hair because my hair is straight like pins (yah hate me, go on =P) :
Try this Herbal Essences shampoo: http://www.herbalessences.com/en-US/hair-products/frizzy-hair/smoothing-conditioner

Also if your hair is really pissing you off, invest in the Matrix line of products. http://www.matrix.com/products/ and this http://www.dooyoo.co.uk/hair-care/matrix-opti-smooth-chemical-hair-straightener/1229268/
I've been told that they're rather expensive but they work miracles. I know a couple people who have had it permanently straightened and enjoyed it and haven't really experienced any awful side effects.

And this too but you may already know it: don't cut layers into your hair. It will end badly. Oh and John Frieda makes good unfrizzying creams. Just put a teeny bit in your hair so it won't be overly greasy.

Hmmm, here is a bad joke that I unfortunately had to LIVE through:
Person: What does a Thanksgiving turkey eat?
Me: I give up. What?
Person: Nothing! Because it's already stuffed. HARHARHAR. Get it? Get it?
Me: UH...moving on.

If I get anymore, don't worry, I shall be back. I mean, I gotta share the cheesy love.
