This afternoon, I found myself thinking back on my teen years. I don't spend a lot of time thinking about my adolescence, but it's probably a result of the acne that has taken up residence on my face at present. Anyway, when I find myself reminiscing on those long ago (?) days, one of the most entertaining things I can do is look through my old diary.
Behold, Anouchka at age 17:
(Insert time-warpy music and warbly special effects from the 90s à la Zack Morris dream sequences.)
Am trying a natural condition on hair b/c am washing it for 2nd time today. (I got Mountain Dew in it earlier - long story.) Here are the 2 recipes I'm thinking about:
Egg Conditioner
-1 egg yolk
-1/2 tsp. olive oil
-3/4 cup lukewarm h2o
OR
Olive Oil & Butter
-Olive oil
-Butter
Hmmm... The directions for the latter tell me to shampoo & condition as usual afterwards. This is good b/c then I won't have to worry about getting crusties in my hair or smelling weird at the movies tonight w/Jessie.* Better dash to get started! I wonder if margarine will work instead of butter.
(New color pen because some time has passed.)
OK, so here's what I did:
Anouchka's* Mix:
-1 egg
-1/2 tbs mayo (does it matter that it's fat free?)
-Fill the rest of measuring cup to between 1/3 & 1/2 full w/ olive oil
-Wet hair w/warm water, massagin in solution, wrap in plastic bag & wrap warm wet towel around (which is now cold & dripping all over me) & set clock for 20 minutes. Wash & style as usual. (We shall see!)
10 minutes
7 minutes...hopefully closer to 6 minutes
Yes! 6 minutes!
3 minutes
Done! Now I can wash breakfast out of my hair!
OK, definitely made my hair feel disgusting & smell really weird. I think I have it on my forehead & the back of my neck. I better hurry though, b/c Jessie will be here to pick me up in an hour & a half!
Ahhhh, youth! Happy memories, everyone!
