Wen Hair Care : The Begining

With all the stuff going through my head, I have been having really bad insomnia. Thanks to that I discovered Wen Hair Care.  I'm sure I'm late in the game. But I ordered it and received it yesterday in the mail. So I am going to try it out starting today. This is how it arrived in it's box.

Let me give you the 411 on my hair. I am naturally dark haired, it's almost black. My hair is naturally thick, I mean very very thick. I used to break hair clips and hair elastics, trying to grab my hair into a bun or ponytail. I HATED my hair. (We always want what we don't have.) I wanted thinner hair... shorter, even lighter. A little over 6 years ago, I decided to go blonde. My love for Jean Harlow was the final push I needed to make that decision. At first I went slightly shorter, my hair went half way down my back, I layered it and colored it a dark golden blonde. Soon I was a light golden blonde. Then for the next 6 years I was a platinum blonde. Yes. Platinum blonde.

Talk about high maintenance! My hair grows really fast and every 3 weeks, I needed a touch up. The love I had for my blonde hair though, helped me get past all the drama that being a bleached blonde causes. I still miss it everyday.

Around the end of 2009 though 2 things happened:

 1. I now wanted Megan Fox hair.

Bella Swan hair....

REALLY, REALLY, BAD!
The stupid part is - I had that hair! 6 years ago! (ugh!)

 2. I was getting sick and tired of putting my scalp through all that. It's a pain, in every way possible. It hurts, it's time consuming, and I won't even get into how hard it is to care for!  You have no idea how dry it can get if you are careless! I longed for the days when I could just wash my hair, wrap it in a bun, and let it air dry. Back then all I had to do was let it dry, take the bun down, and let my loose waves cascade down my back. *sigh.

After lots and lots of debating with myself,  I dyed my hair darker a few months ago. I miss my blonde self sooo much.

But I am also excited to got back to my roots... literally! My hair is very dry from all the dye. It was murder to get it to hold any of the dark color. But now that it has, I have to try my best to re-nourish my straw.

In comes Wen. The infomercial was like an answer to my prayers. I want to get back my old, dark, thick, long hair. I'm hoping these Wen products will help me get there. I hope it can fulfill at least half of what is promised. I am very excited! Today I will try it as soon as I get home. It's the 30 trial so... I'll be posting updates on how it goes. *crossing my fingers!
