Hi everyone, it’s Fabulous Bulldogs here with a special tip for you. If your dog is losing hair, we have a solution that has worked wonders for us. It’s called Ship Leaves Original MTG Plus, and it’s available at Tractor Supply or Amazon. MTG Plus contains sulfur, which is known for its healing properties. It treats a range of skin issues, including fungus, rain rot, girth mange, and bacterial infections. When using MTG Plus, it’s crucial to wear gloves to avoid getting it on your hands. We’ve been using it on our English Bulldog, Bella, who recently had puppies and started losing hair on her back. After just one application, we’ve already seen hair growing back! Simply shake the bottle well and drench the affected area. Rub it in thoroughly and let it dry. This product has a strong sulfur smell, so it’s best to keep your dog outside while it’s drying. It may leave a sulfur odor in your house, but it’s worth it for the amazing results. If your dog is struggling with hair loss or skin issues, give Ship Leaves Original MTG Plus a try. We highly recommend it!
Hey there, beauty enthusiasts! In this video, I’m diving into the topic of going straight natural instead of reverting to relaxers. It’s a decision that requires careful consideration, and I’m sharing my perspective as someone who’s embraced being a straight natural for over six years. If you’ve been longing for natural hair but find the upkeep daunting, becoming a straight natural might be a suitable alternative. It involves wearing your hair blown out most of the time, achieving a smooth and sleek look similar to that of a relaxer. However, it’s essential to note that this approach still involves heat styling, which can lead to some heat damage over time. If you’re okay with that possibility and prefer straight hair, then going straight natural could be a great option. On the other hand, if you envision yourself rocking voluminous curls and intricate buns, becoming a straight natural may not be the best fit. It’s all about finding the hair journey that aligns with your style and preferences. Remember, going natural is a process, but it’s incredibly rewarding. You’ll avoid harsh chemicals in your hair and protect your precious strands in the long run. And who knows, with consistent care and maintenance, you may eventually achieve the healthy, straight hair you desire.
Psoriasis is a chronic inflammatory skin disease that can affect different parts of the body, including the scalp. When it affects the scalp, it can cause scaling and dandruff-like symptoms that can be severe and difficult to treat, leading to social embarrassment. To address scalp psoriasis, it’s recommended to use a lotion containing tar, salicylic acid, sulfur, and sometimes a mild steroid. This lotion should be applied to the scalp overnight and washed off the next morning with a gentle shampoo. Leave-on lotions with calamine or zinc oxide can also help soothe the scalp. In severe cases, doctors may suggest home-based narrowband UV phototherapy or oral medications. For psoriasis extending to the face or neck, oral treatments may be prescribed to reduce the scaling and disfigurement associated with the condition. Stress management techniques can also be beneficial in controlling psoriasis.
In this video, we’re crafting a DIY heat protectant spray to shield your natural hair from blow-drying damage. A heat protectant reduces hair damage caused by heat styling, like blowouts or flat ironing, or even prolonged sun exposure. To create this protective spray, you’ll need a moisturizer, a humectant, and a natural oil. We use Giovanni Direct Leave-In Weightless Conditioner as our moisturizer, vegetable glycerin as our humectant, and sweet almond oil (or coconut oil for high-porosity hair) as our oil. We’ll add a few drops of each ingredient to a hemp tea spray bottle, filled mostly with water. The humectant draws moisture from the air, while the oil coats and seals in moisture. Shake the bottle thoroughly to combine the ingredients. Before blow-drying, apply the heat protectant spray to damp hair, section by section. Use your hand to stretch the hair and monitor the heat to prevent overheating. This spray is perfect for those who want to protect their hair while blow-drying. Remember, the key to maintaining healthy hair during heat styling is to use a good heat protectant and avoid excessive heat. With this DIY spray, you can confidently blow-dry your natural hair, knowing it’s shielded from damage and retaining its health and length.
Unveiling the TGI and Honey Miracle Hair Mask’s Revitalizing Power In this video, I’m excited to share my experience with the TGI and Honey Miracle Hair Mask, a deeply nourishing treatment specifically designed for dry, damaged, and color-treated hair. As someone with 4c hair, I was eager to put this product to the test. Upon opening the jar, I was greeted by the mask’s rich, creamy consistency that reminded me of the beloved SheaMoisture Manuka Honey deep conditioner. However, I found the TGI mask to be even more silky and effortless to apply. To ensure optimal absorption, I followed the instructions and applied the mask to damp hair after shampooing and conditioning. Initially, it required a bit of water to work through my hair, but once hydrated, the mask effortlessly melted into my strands, detangling them seamlessly. The ingredient list of this mask is a testament to its restorative abilities. Raw honey, a natural humectant, seals in moisture and strengthens hair. Olive oil, renowned for its lightweight properties, adds moisture, prevents split ends, and reduces breakage. The inclusion of jojoba and aloe vera juice further enhances hydration and soothes the scalp. After allowing the mask to penetrate my hair for an hour without heat, I rinsed it out and was immediately impressed by the results. My hair exuded a vibrant shine and had a remarkable elasticity. More importantly, the softness persisted even after wash day, indicating the mask’s long-lasting conditioning effects. If you’re seeking a deeply nourishing and transformative hair treatment, the TGI and Honey Miracle Hair Mask is an exceptional choice, particularly for 4c hair types. Its ability to revive dull, damaged hair and restore it to its radiant, healthy state is truly remarkable.
Babies’ delicate skin and lips are highly susceptible to environmental changes, leading to dry, cracked, and chapped lips. If your baby’s lips are dry, it’s crucial to address the issue promptly to prevent further discomfort and potential complications. Understanding the causes of chapped lips in babies is essential. Dehydration, nutrient deficiencies, allergies, mouth breathing, and extreme weather conditions can all contribute to dryness. Interestingly, breastfeeding itself does not cause chapped lips; rather, proper latching and adequate feeding can help heal them. To effectively treat chapped lips in babies, consider using gentle and natural remedies. Petroleum jelly or coconut oil can provide much-needed hydration. Additionally, applying breast milk directly to the lips or using a clean finger to dab it on can promote healing due to its moisturizing and antibacterial properties. Avoid rubbing breast milk on the lips, as this can irritate them further.
In this video, we’re delving into the world of hair care, comparing professional and drugstore shampoos to determine which is superior for color-treated locks. We’ve gathered an impressive lineup of 24 shampoos from 22 popular brands, representing both professional salons and drugstore aisles. Our mission is twofold: to assess whether professional shampoos indeed eclipse drugstore counterparts and to uncover the crème de la crème of all brands. To ensure a fair comparison, we meticulously followed a scientific approach, treating each shampoo with identical care. First, we measured 1 ounce of each shampoo into individual cups, using precise markings to guarantee consistency. Next, we added 8 ounces of water to each cup, ensuring equal dilution. With our shampoo solutions ready, we turned our attention to the hair. Using real human hair donated by a local salon, we ensured each section was of uniform size and color. After allowing the hair to set for 5 days, we were confident that the dye had fully adhered. To begin our testing, we submerged each hair section into its designated shampoo mixture for precisely 15 seconds. As the hair swirled in the solutions, we observed the color changes with keen eyes. Upon removing the hair sections, we compared the results side by side. Professional shampoos emerged as the clear victors, demonstrating superior color preservation. However, the gap between professional and drugstore performance was narrower than anticipated, with some drugstore brands holding their own against their salon counterparts. To further refine our findings, we analyzed photographs of each cup before and after the hair immersion. This meticulous approach allowed us to quantify the extent of color loss. Our top performer, the undisputed champion of color protection, is Wella. The cup containing Wella shampoo exhibited minimal color change, indicating exceptional gentleness on color-treated hair. Pureology takes the second spot, surprising us with its impressive color-preserving capabilities. Initially overlooked during testing, Pureology’s true colors shone through in the detailed photographic analysis. For third place, we award a tie to Fekkai and Bed Head. Both brands demonstrated commendable color retention, earning their spot among the elite. So, do professional shampoos reign supreme? Yes, our testing reveals that they generally offer superior color protection compared to drugstore shampoos. However, the margin of difference is not as pronounced as we initially expected. With so many effective options available, the choice ultimately depends on your individual preferences and budget. If you’re seeking the highest level of color protection, professional shampoos like Wella, Pureology, Fekkai, and Bed Head are your best bets. But if you’re looking for a more budget-friendly solution, several drugstore brands, including Dove, Pantene, and Garnier, offer commendable color preservation as well.
Unveiling Your Signature Lip Color: A Guide to Finding the Perfect Shade for Your Skin Tone Navigating the vast world of lipsticks can be a daunting task, with countless shades and finishes vying for your attention. But the key to finding your perfect match lies in understanding your skin tone and undertones. Step 1: Identifying Your Skin’s Master Tone Skin tones are classified as cool, warm, or neutral. Cool skin tones have bluish-pink or reddish undertones and tend to burn easily in the sun. Warm skin tones radiate yellow, peachy, or golden hues and often tan easily. Neutral skin tones lack obvious overtones of pink or sallowness, displaying the skin’s natural color more prominently. Step 2: Discovering Your Skin’s Undertone Within each master tone, there are seven undertones: pink, blue, green, yellow, orange, red, and neutral. Identifying your undertone is crucial as it helps determine the shades that will complement your skin’s natural hues. Step 3: Selecting Shades that Suit Your Undertone Once you’ve identified your master tone and undertone, you can narrow down your shade choices within that range. For instance, if you have a cool master tone with a yellow undertone, you’ll want to select shades that enhance your skin’s golden undertones. Matching Lip Shades to Your Skin Tone As a general rule, warm skin tones are best complemented by lip shades with warm undertones, while cool skin tones suit lip shades with cool undertones. For Cool Skin Tones: Reds: Deep bluish reds (e.g., cherry red) Nudes: Rosy pink nudes Avoid: Warm colors like warm brown or peach For Warm Fair Skin Tones: Reds: Orangy red or warm red Nudes: Milk tea shades Avoid: Cool undertones (e.g., pink or purple) For Cool Medium Skin Tones: Reds: Rose or berry tones Nudes: Red bean paste with blue or pink hues Avoid: Warm tones (e.g., bright orange or peach) For Warm Medium Skin Tones: Reds: Orange, red, or brown Nudes: Warm orange or brownish red Avoid: Bright colors, nude shades, or shades with pink hues For Neutral Skin Tones: A wide spectrum of colors complements neutral skin tones, from light nudes to deep lines. Avoid: Shades with overly pink or bright orange tones. For Warm Tan Skin Tones: Reds: Brownish-red or renewed shades Avoid: Cool tones (e.g., light milk tea shades or red bean paste shades) For Cool Tan Skin Tones: Reds: Mauve, darker red bean paste with blue undertones, or red with purple undertones Avoid: Light colors like light milk tea shades or light red bean paste shades Lip Product Finishes for Protruded Lips: If you have protruded lips, it’s best to choose lip products with matte finishes as they draw less attention to the lips. Avoid lip products with high shimmer or gloss, as they can accentuate the protrusion. Final Takeaway: Finding the perfect lipstick shade is a journey of exploration and discovery. The most important factor is choosing a lip color that makes you feel confident and beautiful. If a shade doesn’t align with the suggested rules but evokes a sense of self-assurance, don’t hesitate to embrace it.
