Apps You Should Have On Your Smartphone, Besides Instagram


These days, we found apps for everything, in fact we found at least 250 for every search we do at something that interests us, so we can't download any app, isn't it?

Natural Hair Straightening - Use Natural Oils to Change Your Hair!


What if I told you that you can change your hair naturally without any chemical at home with natural oils? That seems unlikely, or even impossible, right? But, no, that's possible and I'm going to show you how.

I'm a big fan of natural and homemade products, and while doing a research on the topic I found a great blog on the subject. I was amazed. I found all sorts of natural formula that you can imagine (Natural make up, shampoo and conditioner, soaps, all kinds of formulas to every type of hair... etc), even those formula that you probably thought you could only find in the beauty parlor, I found there.

The blog is Fazer Cosmético, and is a Brazilian woman (the blog is in Portuguese so if you don't understand the language, you won't understand anything.) who posts the formulas. She is a cosmetologist and beauty consultant studied cosmetic formulations, Colorimetry and makeup. She posted pictures of her and her friend, before and after, (I'm not allowed to post yet.) that shows their hair and I saw the difference. The photos showed them before, with curly hair (not afro), and after them with their hair a little more straight, without a lot of curls, and then again with straight hair.

After reading her blog a lot, I googled some more and found other women that to do the same process and I saw incredible results. And they only speak wonders about the natural straightening.

See Here and Here (Both blogs are in Portuguese but you can see pictures.)

These techniques are quite popular in Brazil but I don't think other countries know about this subject. So that's why I'm bringing a special section here on my blog to do translations of her formulas if you want to try them.

And the first is one is an straightener oil that works 3x faster.
The formulas are super easy to make, just mix the ingredients, with small amounts too, and they must be 100% natural.

To start is a formula for hair straightening, but I will translate other too, for those who don't want to get straight hair or something else. There's treatment for everything and for everyone, stay tuned. I'm sure you'll find something for your hair.

Natural Hair Straightening - How, Why and When


Would you believe me if I told you that mixing some natural oils you could leave your hair straight naturally? Or mixing other oils, you can leave your afro hair, curly? Probably not, right? But Jessika from Fazer Cosmetica believes so. She studied cosmetology and cosmetic formulations, so she knows what she's talking about, not to mention that she is proof that Natural Oils can change your hair, she uses them and approves them. (can't post the photos yet.) She has a blog dedicated to that. All cosmetic formula that you can imagine, you can find there made with natural oils. Link up there.

My goal is to translate the formulas so that more and more people can use it (with her permission, of course.)
So for starters, I'm going to translate how to apply natural oils.

Applying the oils, step by step. (I'll summarize a bit but I'm not going to let the main parts out.)

  • First Application: Wash the hair 2 to 3 times of preference with Deep Clean Shampoo or coconut soap. Wait for your hair to get completely dry and apply the oils and leave your hair wet and gradually go combing your hair to spread the oils really well. Leave at least an hour, but the longer you leave it, the better. Then flat iron or hair dryer your hair but not too hot because otherwise they'll absorb the oils. After, wash your hair with unconcentrated shampoo (for each 100 ml of concentrated shampoo, add 50 ml of water) to not open up the cuticle and the oils escape. Wash as much as it sees fit, but pass 2 times more the conditioner. Example, you washed your hair 3 times, pass the conditioner 5 times.

  • Second Application Onwards: You don't have to wash your hair before, because if you're always washing you will remove the oils that your hair has received. Do everything the same way you did in the first time, just don't wash your hair before. (Intervals of 2 to 3 days.)

  • You can apply once a week. If you do so, make the same way you did in the first application.
- Do not use chemical straightening before oils, slows and complicates the treatment leaving your hair worse. (if applicable)

- Don't dye your hair before treatment, slows down the results.

- I can't know for sure when you'll see results, as this depends on various aspects. If your hair is thick or thin, how long you leaves it in, if the brand is good, if the oils are natural and if you did everything right. She ensures it flattens all types of hair, just wait. It's not a quick process, of course.

- Best to let your hair down, so it can get the straight shape, that's why is good to use a flat iron or hair dryer to give a little heat and the oils penetrate faster.

- Thin and/or Virgin hair get straight faster, so if your hair is chemically treated you'll see more results in the root when he starts to grow.

I just started using only natural coconut oil on my hair and after reading the right way to do it I find out that I'm doing it wrong for a few months and I'm sad, but glad to finally have understood how to do it. But I noticed differences in my hair anyway, my root is much softer and with less volume (I have curly, dry and voluminous hair, imagine!) so even doing it the wrong way, the coconut oil is wonderful and helped me anyway.

No Excuses! Work Out With Your Bodyweight.


Not having a gym membership was never a excuse. Bodyweight training has been around for much longer than gyms and are very efficient to gain muscle mass.
Bodyweight exercises don’t beat up your joints as much as traditional weight training exercises do. They allow for a more natural range of motion and improve your overall athleticism quite effectively.
You do not need weight you don't need equipment but what you really need to have the body you've always dreamed of is: willpower, courage, be tireless and energetic and you'll get there.

In fact, I'm not against Gym (weight and equipment), not at all but instead, I am in favour of all kinds of sports, anything that gets you out of your comfort zone and sedentary lifestyle.

So, that's why I want to share these quick and easy bodyweight workout plans. They're from The Style Worthwhile.
It's 6 different plans, every day will be a different part of your body that you will work. And plus, they're printable. Check out.

Her instructions:
You can repeat and do as many sets of the workout as you want. Make the workout your own. Remember it’s not about ‘having time,’ it’s about ‘making time.’ If it’s important to you, you will make time. Setting aside just 10 mins in the morning and 10 mins at night, 6 times a week adds up to 2 hours of work! You can make time for 10 mins a day, even if that means waking up a bit earlier or spending less time on your phone or the internet. Put in the time and you will see results.
