Here we go!
I posed the question: Naturals who use natural products, do you see a difference? and the responses prompted me to start a challenge for 2012.
~Overview~
Many people feel using natural products for their hair such as cleansers, conditioners, treatments, stylers, etc makes a difference in the health of their hair. Some of the benefits may include better moisture/protein balance, less breakage and shedding, and better retention. You may also want to avoid certain ingredients out of concern the health of you and your family.
~Guidelines~
1. Thank this post and I will add you.
2. The challenge starts January 1, 2012 and will end December 31, 2012.
3. A "before" photo is due by the first week of the challenge.
4. Please update at least weekly or as often as you like.
5. Updates should includes products used, including brief reviews and photos at least quarterly.
