Friend Friday

This week's Friend Friday (via Modlychic) is about "going natural"

1. The move to do away with soap, shampoo and deodorant has been growing in popularity in the last year. What are your thoughts on this trend?

I think its an interesting trend....but not one that I plan to follow, anytime soon anyways. I feel like we can make ourselves too scared to use any product out there nowadays.


2. Be honest how often do you wash your own hair?

Everyday, though sometimes I skip. I've tried to do the whole "shampooing every other day" or so many times a week, but my hair never "adjusted" like its supposed to, and it felt gross. I just make sure to use a lot of good conditioner so as not to dry my hair out.


3. Have you tried to go the more natural route by forgoing shampoo?

(see above)

4. What products do you use and have you ever gone with more organic alternatives?

I haven't tried many products like that, mainly because they are so much more expensive than regular products and often don't work as well. I did use Tom's of Maine toothpaste once, having gotten a free sample, and it was kind of grainy and gross. Bert's Bees is a favorite of mine for lipbalm, but I can't afford most of their products.....so maybe one day when I make it big =)

5. What about that daily shower? Would you forgo that opting to shower three times a week instead?

I think the opportunity to have a shower every day is a GIFT FROM GOD! I urge you all to shower.
