DIY Honey+Olive Oil Deep Treatment Mask

Honey+Olive Oil Deep Treatment Mask

You will need: 

(Amounts will vary depending on your hair type and length adjust as needed)

Honey

Olive Oil

Plastic Cap

Large Towel

Additional Essential Oils

Applicator Bottle

1. In a medium size bowl combine the honey, olive oil and any additional essential oil or carrier oils of your choosing and stir well. 
2. Gently warm the mixture then transfer to a applicator bottle for easy use. (May want to use a funnel for easy clean up)
3. Place large towel around shoulders.
4. Apply warm (not hot) mixture to damp hair before or after hair cleansing routine. Working mixture in sections from ends to roots. Detangle hair before in sections for easier usage. 
5. Place plastic cap over hair, making sure to cover any exposed hair.
6. Allow to let sit at least 20 mintues (without heat) or 10-15 mintues (with heat) (I used a hour without heat) 
7. Remove plastic cap and rinse using warm water. Continue with hair cleansing regimen or regular styling routine. 

This treatment is a easy deep treatment for healthier stronger and shiny hair. The use of honey and olive oil is a perfect combination for adding shine and moisture among other things back into the hair. Honey, a natural shine, humectant and strengthening agent. Olive oil, when used on the hair treats many things such as dandruff, frizz, dull hair, dryness etc. I loved using this treatment as a "Pre-Poo" (Pre Shampoo) treatment before Co-washing (Conditioner cleansing) my hair. My hair felt very soft and was easier to manage. Weeks after using this treatment I notice my hair was a lot stronger and I didn't have as much shedding or breakage as I did before. I highly recommend using this treatment at least 2 a month. PLEASE use an applicator bottle I didnt and it was a mess lol. 

Side Notes 

• This treatment can be thickened and made into a deep conditioner by adding in a heavy amount of raw sheabutter or any thick conditioner you have on hand. 
• I recommend using Coconut oil, Vitamin E, Teatree oil or Peppermint oil to this treatment to combat scalp issues or for addtional benifits.
• When rinsing make sure all of the treatment is flushed out with warm water. Honey makes the hair hard once it dries.

30 day Crunch+Squat Challenge 2014 Weight loss update

So I'm gonna give this another go. Last time I got kinda bored and started adding things to it, but this time I'm gonna stick to it as is. I will be doing squats using the same outline. This year I'm in another head space with working out I have been doing ok in the fitness department lately. I'm waiting on mother nature and old man winter to get over themselves and let the spring move right on in. I can't wait to take long walks around the block and sweat. I grow tired of in home fitness sometimes, but this should hold me over until spring kicks fully in. So far my weight has been stable and I'm seeing a drop in weight. I also see a change in my body far as stomarch, legs and arms. My clothing are getting loser. Jeans I couldn't fit a year ago are now getting a little too big for me now. I started my healthy journey Jan 7 my first weigh in was Feb 7 coming in at 264.9. I'm proud to see that set of number there was a time when I was 300+ lbs. Ive been smaller 170 ish and gained my way back to 280lbs+. I've been through ups and downs and I must say this time my mind is in the right space. I love my body now Im beautiful and very healthy with no sickness etc but I want to be healthier. I see a vision for myself. I see myself getting married having kids one day running around with them being an active parent. I want to be a better me. Health and fitness outside of inner wellness and  healing is the right way to go for my life right now. I use to lose weight for all the wrong reason in return is the reason I gained it all right back. I give this advice ALWAYS do things in your life for YOU. Never lose weight to fit this ideal image that the world displays to us. Everyone isn't gonna be a size 2 or 22. I don't want to be a size 2 but I do believe in being happy. Be happy with the true you and go into a weight loss journey being realistic with yourself. Make sure your mental is taking care of first before commiting yourself to anything in your life. Without the mind you are nothing more than a zombie. Prepare yourself set up meal plans and workout schedules to fit your life and try to be as healthy as your life allows. Im gonna do my best Im in no rush to drop pounds and I'm just gonna take my time and see how it goes. I have a goal of 80lbs at the most. Wish me luck. :)
