Cradle Cap Cure

At almost four months old I thought we were out of the woods with any threats of cradle cap...wrong!  I thought I felt a little bumpiness on her scalp a few days before the flakes showed their ugly face but Hubby said I was being obsessive. Who, me?!  Sure enough, a few days later I saw the flakiness of what I assume was cradle cap.  In 2 days it was completely gone and I'll tell you how-
olive oil.
Yep, I basted Lo's head in olive oil and then gently massaged her scalp with her little hairbrush then shampooed her hair.  I did this twice because, well, I'm obsessive!  Anywho,it's completely gone. The only problem is, I think I created a diva in the process.  She sure does love having baby spa treatments done!

I decided to do a treatment at the last minute before she was going to bed (hence her in jammies and a swaddle blanket). She loved having her hair shampooed over and over though and was quite relaxed for bed!

Ho Hum Hair


Tools of the trade
 So, I've been feeling pretty bored with my blond locks lately.  Since I haven't been working in the spa/salon industry I've been pretty neglectful of my head of hair.  I used to switch it up all the time but for the past year I haven't really maintained my mane like I should.  This past weekend I went by my favorite supply house in the Capital City and this evening I went...
Apparently I am not capable of taking a picture of myself where I don't look surprised!
...Coppery Red.

Then after Hubby and I had dinner I got out the shears and got a little scissor happy but I was long overdue.
