Let's Talk Tresses Friday: What's Your "Go-To" Shampoo?!?!

If my relationship with my hair products were comparable to romantic relationships, I guess you would call me a serial monogamist when it comes to the products I use. I fall in love with a product, use it devotedly for years, get bored and want to move on. Thus is the case with my shampoo!!

After consistently using Mixed Chicks Shampoo for almost two years, and blogging its praises all the while, I've come to a bit of a rut in terms of the product. It still gets the job done, but I'm not insanely crazy about the results anymore. And thus I think it's time for this girl to move on!

So I am seeking your advice, y'all! What is the shampoo you always make sure you have on hand? Are you a poo-bar gal? Are you drug store brands all the way or do you prefer designer suds? Share your favorite brand and why you love it... hook a sistah up?!?!

:::drools::: Wonderfully Warming Winter Outfit

So the temperature is definitely dropping in New York City and this Brooklyn Geechee is doing some researching on her "Freezing but Fabulous" Style.

The Side Button Coat ($129.99 - $149.99, Jessica London)in Marine Blue is first on my "Must Have" list. I am SOOO LOVING the wide envelope collar.

I am loving this knit set BIG TIME... BDG Ribbed Slouchy Beanie ($28.00, Urban Outfitters), BDG Cable Convertible Glove ($16.00, Urban Outfitters) and BDG Cable Knit Scarf ($24.00, Urban Outfitters)

I just can't decide if I want the yellow or the black!! (What do you think, y'all?)

And of course a purse-crazy chica like me cannot resist adding a new handbag to the outfit!!!

I chose the TOO CUTE Deux Lux Seamed Satchel (Now $49 - Urban Outfitters)

And of course, friends and family, I would not be mad if I saw any of these items underneath the tree, alright? LMAO

Peace from Brooklyn!

"Not So Much...."* about Organic Root Stimulator Olive Oil Shampoo

* "Not So Much..." is a quote from one of my favorite old T.V. Shows to watch, "Mad About You". This phrase was made popular by Paul Reiser's character, usually used a lot to indicate his unwillingness, in the not-liking or not-wanting-to department.

So, I've been sticking to a weekly regimen of using ApHOGEE Shampoo for Damaged Hair with the Organic Root Stimulator Replenishing Deep Conditioning Treatment for a few months and I've been very satisfied with the results: my hair has been healthier, shinier and growing very well.

When I ran out of my bottle of shampoo, I thought I would switch over to using ORS's Olive Oil Shampoo, as I believed the hype that products work best when used with their counterparts. Boy, oh Boy... I will not drink that Kool-Aid again!

I used Organic Root Stimulator Olive Oil Creamy Aloe Shampoo for THREE WEEKS before I went rushing back to my ApHOGEE: My hair was a dry, stripped, straw-like mess and NOTHING I did (Short of stop using the shampoo) worked to retain the moisture.

So to the folks at Organic Root Stimulator... you get a big "Thanks but no thanks" for your shampoo... I'll be sticking to my combo.
