Ok, so I've been a lurker since March and officially joined & began posting last month. Since trying to gain length & health back in my hair I've been researching everything haircare related. Almost every resource I stumble across mentions this~ drink plenty of water.I've always heard the benefits of drinking plenty of water but I've always avoided drinking it
erplexed.
Jan. 1 I decided to change my opinions about water and began aiming for 2 liters per day, hoping to get up gradually to 3 or 4 liters a day. Jan. 1- 7 I drank at least 2 liters per day, even more some days. So....here is what it has done for me in these 7 remarkable days:
1. Skin is repaired! I suffer from acne and oily skin. Especially during that time of the month I breakout!! Let me just say Aunt Flo is here, and my face is glowing, clear, naturally moisturized, and smooth
. I even went to work this week wearing less makeup than normal, but yet i look better. My skin everywhere else is super dry, and I got away with moisturizing less! No more ashiness....so water fixed acne and dryness
2. Hair is finally beginning to look, feel, & act right- thicker, had more body, shinier, and the roller set I did this week came out better than normal. Hair actually had a bit of swang b/c I used less product since hair was moisturized from the inside- its like magic!
3. Slept better at night and felt healthier in general
4. I eat less naturally- may have lost a pound or two
5. So excited about the water & how I feel that I put down the coffee, tea, and sodas I was addicted to
6. I thought it would be hard to get used to drinking so much water, but when I wake up in the morning and if I don't down a huge glass of water within an hour of waking up I feel dehydrated and start getting headaches~now I'm addicted to water!
I know yall already knew this stuff, but I am so excited about finally getting with the program! This is more like a public service announcement to not underestimate the power of good ol' fashioned WATER to help you get to your health & beauty goals. I have underestimated water for far too long. I just had to post b/c if I feel this great after a week, I can't wait to post my hair progress & general health & beauty in the next months.
So ladies, drink up! This post may be pointless, but if it inspires one more thirsty, dehydrated lady like me get with the program, then it was worth it!
