I’ve been a Dove girl for a long time.  I first started with their deodorant.  I then tried and loved Dove’s body wash.  Now Dove is all up in my head or should I say hair.  I recently tried Dove’s new Style + Care Extra Hold Hairspray while wand curing my wig.  I had tried curling it before but the curls looked a little limp.  I was missing the holding spray.

I know I wanted a spray that wasn’t sticky or left the hair hard and crunchy.  I wanted to use a spray that good at holding a curl while not leaving my wig looking dull.  I found that in the Dove Compressed Micro Mist Hairspray.

Dove said they have reinvented its styling collection to protect hair for a long-lasting, beautiful style.  I agree because the curls lasted even though day two of wearing without having to touch them up.  My hair was touchable soft and didn’t get frizzy.  Dove say’s unlike some hairsprays that leave you with helmet-hair, you won’t have all that stiffness with Dove Style+Care Extra Hold Hairspray. Just beautifully shiny hair with less frizz and touchable style. Dove Style+Care Extra Hold Hairspray strengthens hairstyles by providing extra hold without all the stiffness. Dove Extra Hold Hairspray will keep every strand in check – even in damp and humid weather. Fighting frizz, fly-aways, static and other hair nuisances, it will ensure that nothing gets in the way of beautiful looking hair.  I picked my compressed micro mist spray from Target.  The compressed micro mist spray is also available at ULTA, stores.

Thought:  I really liked Dove’s compressed micro-mist.  The fast-drying formula is everything!  The super fast-drying non-sticky formula left my wig brushes out soft.  Dove say’s the new compressed micro-mist technology provides 25% more sprays per can.  I believe it.  I was able to curl my whole head with a few sprays.  All I had to do was shake the can and spray.  I was careful to hold the can 8-10 inches away from hair.  I was also happy there wasn’t an alcohol or a random fragrances smell. The Dove Compressed Micro-Mist Extra Hold Hairspray is fatgirloffashion APPROVED!

What beauty standards are we leaving our children?

Posted in LIFESTYLE, UncategorizedTagged , , , , , , , , , , 2 Comments

Beyonce offered a powerful look into the mind of many women with her song “Pretty Hurts.”  She sings “Mama said, “You’re a pretty girl. What’s in your head, it doesn’t matter Brush your hair, fix your teeth. What you wear is all that matters.”  I’m not saying that every women is raised to believe this but many have. Pushing our self esteem issues onto our children is a powerful thing.  We tell our girls what not “good” about themselves.  We focus on hair. Is it long and thick?  Does it have the right wave patten?  We focus on weight and size.  We push our own size issue onto the next generation.  Many of us do this unknowingly.  It’s done in how we address ourselves in front of our children.  Comments like “I look so fat in this” or “I need to lose weight, I’m so ugly.”  Our children see & hear how we treat ourselves and start treating themselves the same way.  How could a child every feel pretty when they know the person they look just alike doesn’t like the way they look.  Often times focusing on girls we forget out boys.  It’s important to note we tell our boys what to value as beautiful.

 

 

Dove has a short film they just released out called “Legacy”.  In the short Dove ask 5 pair of mothers and daughters to write a separate lists of what they like and don’t like about themselves.  My of the daughters were found the same body issues that their mother had with themselves.

Dove is asking women who they #FeelBeautifulFor .  This is Dove’s campaign for their 5th Self Esteem Weekend happening October 9 – 12.  The women of this generation should stop at ask ourselves “What beauty standards are we leaving our children?”
