When you are shopping for shampoo in the supermarkets or shops selling hair products, you know there are so many to choose from and it can be tough to know if the expensive brands are really worth the extra money and if all the remarkable comments regarding the benefits your hair will receive from their shampoo are actually true.

According to hair care product reviews by experts most shampoos are effective at cleaning your hair, however all the other things the shampoos claim they can supply may not be true or they may be overstating their benefits.

Hair Salons

Notably hair salons also sell hair care products and they always claim their products are superior to the products you can purchase at grocery stores, however some experts have claimed in reviews that the hair salon products also overstate their benefits. The FDA only has regulation over the ingredients listed on the label thus the manufacturer can claim all sorts of benefits and their products don't have to exactly provide the benefits.

Be wary when you read the shampoo bottle, especially when you discover the claims on repairing or nourishing damaged hair. This is because most shampoos can only provide temporary assistance with regard to the look of your hair. Some experts specify in reviews that they have doubts that natural ingredients found in shampoos can indeed be effective at cleaning your hair. Let's take a look at some of the popular shampoos.

Well Known Hair Products

1) Bumble and Bumble

A popular as well as expensive salon brand named Bumble and Bumble has become popular and a couple of hair care product reviews have stated that their shampoos are gentle on their hair and work well at cleaning hair. The Bumble and bumble Alojoba shampoo received good reviews and a couple reviews mentioned that the product was effective for normal as well as dry hair. In addition to that it did not create a build up in their hair.

2) Clairol's Herbal Essences

Paula Begoun has made many hair care product reviews and she suggests using an anti-residue shampoo such as Neutrogena Anti-Residue once or more per week to scrape any residue you might have in your hair, especially for people who apply a volumizing shampoo to their hair. Numerous reviews by consumers have claimed that Clairol's Herbal Essences is one of the best shampoos for the low priced shampoos. Some reports have claimed that Clairol's Herbal Essences work just as well as the high priced salon brands and is significantly less expensive.

Head and Shoulders

Head and Shoulders is one of the least expensive dandruff shampoos but it doesn't always work for people who have a serious case of dandruff and they may have to use stronger dandruff shampoos. According to experts Head and Shoulders had fewer side effects than other store brands.

It's a good idea to check out hair care product reviews before buying shampoos and other hair care products.

Clairol Vitapoint Jar 8 oz.

Creme hairdress and conditioner that adds beautiful sheen and manageability to all kinds of hair. It is light, white, delicate - never greasy, never sticky. Used after tinting or toning, it will not affect even the most delicate color.

As we get ready to clean our homes for holiday guests (and even if you are one of the lucky ones paying someone else to clean your home). Here are a few issues to be aware of.

The EPA (Environmental Protection Agency) has shown that indoor air contains two to five times more pollutants per cubic foot that outdoor air and in extreme cases can be one hundred times more polluted. The New York Times wrote in an article on Jan 6, 2001 that an EPA study revealed some toxic levels in homes were "greater than the levels that qualify as a chemical waste site for Superfund status." It is important for you to know that you if you are using chemicals to clean your house, your are unknowingly adding to your indoor pollution in a very big way. A 2003 study conducted by the Mount Siani School of Medicine in New York tested volunteers who did not live or work near industrial facilities. An average of 91 contaminants were discovered in each person. Most of these contaminants come from pesticides, personal care products and household cleaners. These chemicals were capable of causing cancer, brain and nervous system damage, birth defects and immune system problems.

As a rule of thumb, many experts advise that if a product label includes the notice "warning", "poison" or "danger" - stop right there and avoid the product all together. I go further and say, if it's not natural or smells funny, don't use it. As warning labels are only addressing issues caused by ingestion. Ninety percent of health problems are caused by inhalation. Most of these chemicals fill the air with what we call a clean smell. I would recommend you rethink that clean definition and think of it as a poison smell.

In the interest of keeping each Healthy Hint short enough to value your time each week, we will discuss specific ingredients next week. For now, try to avoid the use of chemicals that have a strong odor and/or list the caution words above. You may also want to avoid the products that the Water Pollution Control Federation states are so toxic, they must be disposed of in a toxic waste dump: floor care products, furniture products, window cleaners, bug spray and nail polish remover. Other products that the National Cancer Prevention Coalition lists as the top cancer causers in our home are: J & J Baby Powder, Crest Tartar Control Toothpaste, V05 Hair Conditioner, Clairol Nice N Easy Hair Color, Ajax Cleanser, Lysol Disinfectant.

To get your house clean, Use the a high density fiber clean room or Magic cloth, damp towels, baking soda and other environmentally and personally safe products. You will go into the holidays breathing easier!

A Voyage of Awareness-A Prelude to Action

Covering the History of Blackness in America.

Bindy has endured my inordinate number of idiosyncrasies for nineteen years now. We got a late start, Bindy was thirty five and I was forty four.

A first time for Bindy, she waited all those years for "Mr. Right", I suppose that depends on whom you ask.

Bindy and I met in an Aerobics class, actually more like Bindy entered the room dressed neck to ankles in form fitting Spandex and I knew who her husband was going to be. It didn't matter what her current status might have been, I knew what it was going to be. I just had to find a way to tell her that.

In 1997 Bindy became a certified Jazzercise Instructor and Franchise owner. She now owns and operates two Jazzercise Centers with multiple instructors and class managers and still teaches several classes a week herself. You would never know my Bindy was fifty four years old by the manner in which she teaches, or how she still fills out that spandex.

Chasse forward to June, 2008. Bindy is teaching the class this particular evening and I am filling in for one of the class managers.

One of the frequent attendees walks up to the counter to check in. She is a teacher and has mentioned her daughter is graduating from high school this year. So, it makes her forty-ish but the point is she has a beautifully coiffured short hair style, to which I am partial anyway, and it is in the most gorgeous shade of blonde I have ever seen.

Later that evening at home I mentioned to Bindy how pretty the member's hair was and she agreed with me. She said she had been toying with the thought of doing something similar with her hair. What did I think?

In all these nineteen years I have never seen Bindy other than a brunette, her natural color. Most often in my favorite style which is short, but not as short as Jamie-Leigh Curtis, or similar to Sharon Stone or Meg Ryan when they wear their hair short. To myself I'm thinking "I don't believe it", however I pipe right up and say, "Hey, sounds ok to me".

At Bindy's Jazzercise Centers there are always scads of health and fitness magazines written especially for women within easy reach. For some reason I happen to notice that the cover of the fitness magazine Bindy was reading featured a young woman with an extra firm set of "abs" compared to the usual ladies on the covers. I could see the word muscle in the title so I asked about it. Oh, this is one that shows up only every once in a while.

The next morning I poured a bowl of cereal and thought I should review this new muscle whatever magazine to make sure it was appropriate for the members.

It wasn't "Muscle and Sex Teaser", June, 2008, but it could have been. Why is it 97% of the women in these types of magazines are shown pumping iron, straining, stretching, reaching, running or jumping when they all have at least C cup size breasts but they're wearing B cup size sports bras?

When I put the magazine down I saw the box. The box that said...Clairol Natural Instincts - Coastal Dune - Dark Neutral Blonde.

Dark Neutral Blonde, I wonder if I'll be able to control myself!
