Progress Check – September 2017

If you saw my last post you’ll know that I started a little craft project up in my hair. I’m still not sure how I feel about that but it’s all in aid of getting a head full of good, healthy hair.

Gently peel off this mask once a week to reveal a fresh and revived new you.” I love the blurb and all of the descriptions on the packaging as…
