I love, love Jonathon hair products. They are my absolute favorite. And what else do you expect from me? I definitely have expensive taste!
As most of you know, I am in sole possession of a head of hair that is, above all, supremely terrifying. Because of my special head of hair, I make it my business to be in sole possession of:
A) The knowledge of the newest and most effective products for breaking, taming, and controlling my hair, and
B) Whatever amount of money is required to accomplish this.
Hairstylists all across America have been astounded at my quest for "the perfect head of hair". I will come in at insane times, sit stiffly in salon chairs for hours on end, suffer steam burns to my scalp, return faithfully at regular intervals, and suffer through endless days of stinky products absorbing into my hair shaft during the "no-shampoo period" after treatment (3 days!!!) At the age of 14, I was flying from CA to FL just to get my hair treated with Japanese straighteners. Believe me--if there's one subject I have educated myself about due to necessity, it's hair.
Now, back to my Jonathon product rage. I bought my first Jonathon hair product, Silky Dirt, four years ago. Silky Dirt is a beautifully scented, soft-textured, non-sticky, medium hold finishing wax. A tiny dab the size of a pea will seal in my shiny finish for the day without a problem. After straightening my hair, I coat my hands lightly and rub the ends of my hair with the majority of the product for a shiny, sealed-in straight that will outlast my day. My most recent purchase was the Jonathon dry shampoo. I wanted to use that to extend my blow-outs by a day. A dab at the roots takes away the shine (the yucky kind). This dry shampoo is my favorite product for creating a day-old pony with a little extra crown height. I lift the hair on my crown, dab dry shampoo into the roots, let it absorb overnight, and the next day my hair has the texture that stays perfectly in a ponytail.
Why Jonathon products? First of all, I have never found another wax created equal. It is truly a one-of-a-kind product. Also, I love the fact that all of the products are Vegan and Sulfate Free. What this basically means for the consumer is that the products are mainly comprised of natural oils, botanical butters, & fruit, plant & sea extracts. This is GREAT for your hair's health and shine! Lyes and animal fats have the potential to create a greasy build-up on the scalp and hair. For me, the sulfates are a big deal, because sulfates strip straightening products off of the hair shaft.

I know this post was not meant to be funny, but it cracked me up. I think it cracked me up because you amaze me with the amount of time you spend on your hair. I would rather be bawled then spend 3 hours doing my hair. You on the other hand have no issues spending 3 hours straightening your hair PERFECTLY. Every single piece of hair will be in it's exact place when you come out of the bathroom 3 hours later.
ReplyDeleteI know....it's definitely my OCD indulgence. :) And yes it was meant to be a little funny. I can laugh at myself!! :)
ReplyDeleteBecky, Liz is not obsessive about her hair. She has a positively unmanageable tangle on top of her hair, and it's a public service for her to keep it under control.
ReplyDeleteBut I do have one problem with the post: she made it sound like SHE always spent lots of $$ on hair. Actually, she started by spending MY money; and now she's worked up to an independent status!
