Hello again!

I was thinking about to write a about one real or unreal problem that every girl and woman has in some days: The hair. How to get thicker, shinier and heavier hair? Hair is very important part of women’s beauty. It’s like a mirror: if your body is in great balance and you take good care of it, you exercise enough and eat well, it shows in your hair. Worrying how to get thicker hair might be very familiar to many women, especially in Finland where the hairtype is light and thin. You might have gone through all shampoo and conditioners which promise you will have after regular use fast growing, thick and shiny hair, but the result isn’t what you imagined. My tips are really working, I don’t how I could live without them, and I dare promise you will feel exactly same after trying these. I don’t promise miracles – they exist only in fairy tales – but I promise these will work. Keep on reading and find out how to get stronger, shinier and thicker hair!

When in Western world the beauty ideal is to be 180 cm (5ft 11”) tall and weight 50 kg  (110 lbs), which I don’t find very appealing, in Arabic world the beauty ideal is to have long, shining and strong hair. Since girls are born they will be having their traditional henna and oil treatments. These post about hair care based on original recipes from the Middle East, to be exact from UAE. 

1) Apply coconut oil for the all night during one month (notice: if you have dandruff it’s not recommended). The hair becomes much thicker and shinier.

2) Mix apricot and coconut protein cream for 10 minutes, three times a week, and wash away with normal shampoo hair wash.  The hair becomes silky, strong and heavy.

*My friend complained how tired her hair was from very often dyeing and they had lost their shine. Later her hair looked amazing, and I asked her how she got her hair to look so vital. She said that she used an oil mixed with ground fenugreek seeds, and then she put the mix in can and waited for 10 days. Then she applied the mix to her hair twice a week. 

**The seeds of fenugreek – additional use for stomach disease, the seeds are prepaired and taken as a normal tea (notice:the seeds have a specific smell).

Note: Any oil activitates its elements faster as it’s a bit warmer than cold. The more temperature (not  hot!) the faster comes chemical reaction with your hair. You may need to cover your hair while you keep a mask on your head to protect  your clothes from getting oily. 

You can choose one of these to improve your hair quality but don’t forget that you need to repeat the treatment several times before the final result will appear. But even only once applying such a mask on your hair you will see and feel a big difference and your hair gets the complex of natural active ingredients and as a result healthy looking and shining hair. I would be also very happy to hear your comments about this post and also if you decide to try how your hair feels afterwards:)

xoxo, Fanny

This summer has been everything else than lovely. Raining, cloudy, not so warm. Oh gosh, how I miss the sun and the days when temperature rises over 40 degrees…I love decorating my room over and over again, I think it’s never perfect. For example, I might see picture of a perfect, and then I just want to make my room look like that one. In one day I might love Bollywood -feeling, next day Upper East Side -look, and in third day colorful Latin American -look. At the moment, my room looks pretty nice. I have mix and matched a several looks, and I have Upper East Side on black-and-white decoration posters, colorful Latin on my jewelry stand and warm, comfortable look in my bed. 

I am pretty fanatic about Feng Shui, I must confess. I have collected five easy steps for more serene home, and these are very easy to carry out. These easy Feng Shui tips makes for example your bedroom relaxing place where’s good to clear the head and lower your stress level. 

1) Get rid of vain swag. Hide or lose from your eyes all those little things, which cause stress. Keep visible only those things brings you joy and which you really like.

2)Decorate with shades of water.Certain color shades calms mind. Blue increases creativity and well-being, green creates a feeling of new life.

3) Make some space. A room which is squeezed full of things might cause a feel of tension. Oranize the tools so, that there is at least 75 cm (29 inch.) spece to move. 

4) Bring the nature in. Open the curtains to let the natural light to light the space. Place green plants different parts of the room. Plants brings a feel of life, growth and oxigen. 

5) Balance the materials. Softer the overall with something cosy, like soft-looking sofa or hefty pillows. Soft elements brings consolation and comfortness, hard things stability. 

Happy decorations for you, and feel free to leave a comment in English or in Finnish;)
