What's in my bathroom? AN UPDATE

My Personal Bathroom Stock has great reduced in size these days due to one company alone, Modern Nature.  I will explain...

WHY MONAT? 

This is my why...
I have been gluten free for 14 year, have had 3 babies and a thinning hair line.  My hair is thick but no volume ever!  This picture is from June 5, 2015, I had never used Monat before this picture. 

This is my why...
Three weeks after the first photo.  After a succession of good hair days and lasting curls, I decided to call myself a dedicated Monat client.









Why Monat?

1) CERTIFIED GLUTEN, PARABEN, SULFATE, DEA/MEA, PHTHALATE FREE (and the list goes on)

2) Anti-aging hair care meaning it fills in what your hair is missing...my hair has gone thru some stress and damage. I see less frizz, more body and less styling over all. 

3) Regrowth of hair - Monat is clinically proven to regrow hair.  How awesome is regrowth of healthy better hair!

4) Organic and Naturally based...that's a win in my book.  I prefer to lessen the amount of daily chemicals I have to be in contact with.

So, since I am so convinced of this awesome product and to love Monat so much, I have had a direct link set up for all to test it out.  If you add a comment with your email address, I am happy to share additional information with anyone in the US and Canada.  Or you can go directly to the website I set up with Monat (because I am an addict)... mymonat.com/marisak

Awesome, healthy gluten free hair is here!

5 Questions to ask a Hairstylist PRIOR to walking in the salon

Here is a list of questions to ask a salon/hair professional PRIOR to being in their chair, at the mercy of the time available for each client.

1) Do you have knowledge of gluten free hair color and products?
2) What product and color lines are you personally carry in your salon?
3) What color lines would you use on a gluten free client?
4) Do you have any other regular clients who are gluten free?
5) Do you do consultations with clients to discuss color and safety?

Now I know I am being tough on my own kind.  But if you the client, do not ask the right questions prior to color being mixed or being lead to the shampoo area, there is a good chance you will have a unfortunate reaction!

Think of this as being a restaurant experience, as the allergy world knows we have to do homework! We ask questions, google menus, check reviews, we will even speak to the chef.  But at a certain point, our meal is at the mercy of the staff in the dining establishment.  Same rules about your hair. 

Most stylists do not have the foreknowledge that there is gluten in hair color, most have never had a blistered scalp from hairspray so the client needs to be the educator.
