It’s kind of funny, prepping before the gym

  • Posted on March 6, 2010 at 7:40 pm

One thing I have noticed that I always do is prepare myself more before I go to the gym than I do for work or a formal event.  Not like mentally or emotionally, which probably would help me workout a lot better, but completely superficially.

I realized, before I go to the gym I spend roughly an hour fixing my skin, doing my hair, using products like MoroccanOil Oil Treatment to dry my hair faster and bring out the color while I am running or in class, I use more product and style the heck out of my hair and completely moisturize my face and put it together more carefully than when I go on a date.  The thing is that this is absolutely ridiculous to do considering I am about to workout, get sweaty and then shower right after I finish my workout while I am at the gym.

When I think about it it makes no sense why I go through so much trouble every time I workout, but when I really think about it I do it all to try to impress the guys.  This again makes no sense.  We are there to workout, sure there is a lot of flirting and people stare and give each other the eye, but the gym isn’t neccesarily a place to try to pick someone up.  When I really think about it, I should be focusing all of this energy on my workout and getting better at it but instead I am focusing on being the best looking and the most attractive.  It is pretty funny to see where people’s priorities actually lie when they are supposed to be doing something but then realize they aren’t actually doing it as best as they can.  Anyways, I am going to do my best to try and avoid doing all the prep work and beauty work on myself before I go to the gym and really see if I spend the extra time focusing on my workout if it will actually start to make a difference for me on the way that I work out and get myself into even better shape.

MoroccanOil Oil Treatment is Back on Sale

  • Posted on January 6, 2010 at 7:46 pm

Ok, so if you have been following this blog for a while or if you have been using MoroccanOil Oil Treatment for any lengthy period of time, or even at least the last 6 months to the past year, you’ll have noticed that you used to be able to get this amazing hair product dirt cheap.  However, with the demand increasing almost daily because of the rapidly growing international Demand for MoroccanOil Oil Treatment and because the Tree the Argan Oil comes from is also an endangered species of tree, only so much of the product and the oil can be harvested and created each year causing the prices to skyrocket and the demand to grow even more.

Luckily Hair Care Discounters has found a new vendor and supplier of the amazing MoroccanOil Oil Treatment in all sizes and is now able to not only start to offer you MoroccanOil Oil Treatment on Sale again, but also at an even lower price than we had had to raise it to a few months ago.  Not only can we do this and offer you this amazing hair oil treatment, but this is probably one of the only products that everyone here at Hair Care Discounters actually uses (well those of us that have hair) and all agree that it works for each of us.  I know I almost always bring my sample sized travel bottles with me whenever I travel and have to meet a Client for the first time or look my best.

The MoroccanOil Oil Treatment is probably one of the best products out there for helping to repair damage, dry hair faster, add instant shine and help your hair feel healthy, help your hair look shinier and overall a heck of a lot better.  This is a product that almost all of us swear by and now that we can offer it to you all on sale for a price that is by far one of the lowest prices on the internet for MoroccanOil Oil Treatment there is absolutely no reason that you should not give the MoroccanOil Oil Treatment a try.

Did you go straight or curly this fall?

  • Posted on November 15, 2009 at 10:14 pm

So it looks like everyone went straight and curly this fall with their hair styles.  Hair Irons sold like crazy and so did straight and curly hair shampoos.  The one thing that a lot of people are finding out though is that even though they started to use new products and styling and heated tools on their hair, they are also finding out the damage that these tools can cause to their hair and now are starting to try hair masks, hair oils and hair treatments so I wanted to go over a few types of products to help you with your dry and damaged hair from tools and styling products from curling and straightening your hair this last fall.

The first type of product you might want to try are oil treatements.

Women have been using hair oils and oil treatments on their hair for years because they are not only easy to use, but they help to give you almost instant results and instantly better looking and feeling hair.  The thing though is that hair oils and oil treatments are usually kind of hard to use and take a while.  Especially hot oil treatments for your hair.  However, thanks to the MoroccanOil company we now have the MoroccanOil Oil Treatment which doesn’t need heated up and can easily be used to help repair the damage done to your hair but also help to make it look a lot healthier and like your hair was naturally straight or curly and with the argan oils shine enhancer, your hair might even look better than natural.

Hair Masks are also an amazing way to not only help to recharge your hairs natural look and feel, but also help to repair the damage and harm done to your hair from all of the heated tools and appliances.  Some of the most popular hair masks come from L’oreal and Kerastase, but a brand new hair mask that is also becoming really popular because it is made for all hair types is the hair mask from It’s a Ten.  If your hair isn’t damaged from heat, but is just seriously dry, you may also want to try the MoroccanOil Intense Hydrating Mask which is also made for all hair types and works great for seriously dry and damaged hair.  Hair Masks are also popular not only because they work and they are easy to use, but if you buy a good one it can also help to give you almost instant results and help your hair start to look healthier and better after the first time you use the hair mask.

If you decided to curl or straighten your hair this fall to keep up with fashion trends and to keep up with styles, you should definitely look at buying a hair oil treatment or trying to use a hair mask, especially before winter comes and new hair trends and new hair styles start to make their way into the salons and styles.  You will also want to repair your hair before the cold winter air starts to effect it and cause even more damage.

Products for Dancers Hair. Hair products for ponytails and pulled back styles.

  • Posted on November 6, 2009 at 7:02 am

One thing that I hate about sports like dance is that they are way to set on body type, shape, your looks, your age, your height, your outfit, etc… and unfortunately, skill and skill sets take second or are about the same amount of importance to the people who everyone thinks you need to impress.  Although having a lean figure is important to be able to show off the lines and positions and your grace while dancing, at the same time there are a ton of larger women who can dance and are just as good, but never get the roles.  There are also a lot of other women who are amazingly talented but since there is a the pretty popular girl next to her or a girl that can afford better beauty products or have a stylist who can recommend the right products to use, she may get the job because her hair and skin and nails may be in better condition.  So in order to help level the playing field for dancers everywhere, I wanted to recommend a few products that may help you to not only increase your appearance from a stage to the audience, but also help you win the judges over so they focus on your ability to dance (which is the most important thing) and since they see you have gorgeous skin and hair and nails, they won’t focus on that.  Once your hair, etc… look amazing, your skill and your talent will help you get the roles you want in the show.  Everyone should be judged on their talent, but because that isn’t always the case, here are some products to look at using.

MoroccanOil Oil Treatment – This oil treatment is one that almost everyone in our office has used and we all love it.  It not only helps you to have shinier and silkier hair, but it will help to repair damage done by a straightening iron for your hair to be pulled in a bun or in a pony tail or however you style it for dancing, but it will also help your hair look and appear more healthy and manageable.  MoroccanOil is a seriously amazing product for dancer hairstyles.  This is a product you have to have if you want good hair for the judges and for the show.  Buy MoroccanOil and you will see the difference almost immediately.

Holy Mud Masks and Dermalogica Acne Treatments – Skin is seriously important and everyone is going to notice skin that has blemishes and that is not moisturized or healthy.  It is important to use masks like the holy mud pumpkin exfoliating masks and the deep cleaning toning mask like the Dead Sea Mud Mask and also use an acne product like the Dermalogica acne treatment so that your skin is clean and new, then use a moisturizer or moisturizing mask like the oat and honey mask to nourish and moisturize your skin.  Having good skin will definitely help your chances of landing a better role in your show.

The last thing to remember is to not use makeup or nail polish that stands out.  You want a nail polish that blends in or is a neutral color so the judges and the people in the audience actually watch you dance and not your hands getting in the way.  Your hands are as important as your arms and legs and if you have a color that stands out, it will take away from what you are doing with your body.  Keep your nails with a neutral color and your dancing will show itself off even more and you will look a million times better. Barefoot in Barcelona is a perfect color for this.  Or use a tan or pink color for your nails.

Anyways, it is absolutely horrible that dancers have to not only dance well but also get judged on appearance, but with the products above and taking a bit of time each day, everyone can compete on all levels and if you use the products in this post, you may begin to get a step up and small advantage over the people who have not found this post.  Dancing is amazing so focus on getting better and let these products work on the rest.  You will not only feel better by using products that can help you look better, but you’ll have an advantage over the other girls when you are auditioning for a role and have an advantage when performing since the audience will have a better chance of noticing your hair and then watching you.   Proper hair, skin and nail care is key to dancers getting roles in shows and key to moving forward in life.  Pick the products that work for you and then work on your skills.

MoroccanOil Moisture Repair Shampoo Sale

  • Posted on October 31, 2009 at 2:04 am

The MoroccanOil Moisture Repair Shampoo is absolutely amazing.  Although it is a moisture repair and replenishing shampoo, it is safe for use on all hair types, even hair that is currently balanced perfectly for moisture.  Not only is this shampoo effective and amazing and actually the one that I use myself because I love how smooth and silky and easy to manage it makes my hair, but the MoroccanOil Moisture Repair Shampoo smells great too.

If you have ever gotten the chance to try the MoroccanOil Oil Treatment, then you’ll definitely not only remember how well it works on your hair for repair, manageability, color protection, etc…. but you’ll also remember the amazing smell of the product.  The shampoo and conditioner not only match that smell perfectly but they also help to provide many of the same benefits of the oil treatment and I love them both.  What I love even more about the MoroccanOil Moisture Repair Shampoo though is that even though it is way to expensive at retail prices, we currently have a huge sale on the MoroccanOil Shampoo and Conditioner and if you click on any of the links in this blog post, you’ll be taken to Hair Care Discounters where you can always find MoroccanOil Shampoo on Sale and at a serious discount to not only help you keep your hair looking and feeling fabulous, but also help you save money and keep your bank account full.   I love this shampoo and if you like the MoroccanOil Oil Treatment, you’ll love the shampoo that matches it.  Buy MoroccanOil Shampoo on Sale Here.

MoroccanOil Shampoo and Conditioner

MoroccanOil Shampoo and Conditioner

Sooo one thing that I would like to say before I start posting again is that not only do me and Adam actually use many of the products we blog about, but the Hair Care Discounters team actually does use and enjoy the products we carry.  Now, we don’t use all of them, but we definitely do shop from our own store and use the products we sell so it really is one of those things where we can tell you from first hand experience if we like the products or not.

For example, a few posts ago I talked about finally tryng the Holy Mud Pupkin mask and even said I wasn’t too much of a fan, but at the same time I have most enzyme based exfoliating masks and it actually wasn;t the worst mask on earth.  I would actually probably use it again and will end up using it, probably this week.

Also, in the picture to the left, I took a picture of my shower and in it you’ll see that not only do I constantly push MoroccanOil, but I actually use their products as well.  As you can see, the shampoo and conditioner in my shower is the MoroccanOil Shampoo and the Conditioner is the MoroccanOil Conditioner.

I love these shampoos and conditioners like no tomorrow and although the MoroccanOil Shampoo really isn’t anything special, except for it smells nice just like the moroccanoil oil treatment, the MoroccanOil Conditioner is absolutely amazing.

It almost instantly makes my hair feel thicker, silky and just a heck of a lot more manageable and workable.  I love the conditioner and because the shampoo does match it and actually does work pretty well, I love the MoroccanOil Shampoo and Conditioner set and hgihly recommend them both.  Not only do I use them, but I know a ton of other people who have now started to buy MoroccanOil Shampoo and Conditioner and if you purchase it from Hair Care Discounters, you’ll save because MoroccanOil Shampoo and MoroccanOil Conditioner is always on sale at Hair Care Discounters.com.

Top Ten Hair Shampoos and Conditioners For Fall.

  • Posted on October 5, 2009 at 8:09 pm

Ok, with the spirit of the awards season still going strong and getting ready for the holidays and all of the top ten lists, I am declaring this list week here on the number 1, sorry couldn’t resist, Hair Care Blog in the world!  So lets get going with our top ten hair shampoos and conditioners for the fall starting with our best selling and personal favorite shampoos and conditioners.

10. Alterna Life Volume Restore Shampoo.  This shampoo from Alterna isn’t just organic and sulfate free, it is also one of the most amazing and best shampoos you can buy to not only help repair and restore your hair, but also add in volume and life so it is perfect for people with dry, dull and lifeless hair.  Alternas Live Volume Restore Shampoo promotes healthy keratin formation and helps to fight against hair loss and baldness and because the fall is when it starts getting cold and you need that hair to help keep your head warm, the Alterna Life Volume Restore Shampoo makes our Top Ten List.

9.  Aquage Silkening Shampoo is our number nine pick for the top shampoos and conditioners for Fall.  This shampoo is amazing for helping to smooth and create a silk like feeling in coarse, dry, frizzy and curly hair.  You can use this shampoo to not only help make your hair more manageable, but also help to get your hair looking and feeling like silk.  This product is also a color safe and protecting shampoo and is sulfate free.  Aquage Silkening Shampoo is our number 9 pick for the best shampoos and conditioners for the fall.

8.  Brocato Peppermint Purifying Scrub Shampoo is our number 8 pick…although I think it should have been much higher.    Brocato is one of the best and most popular shampoo and hair product makers in the USA.  I know a ton of women and men who swear by their products and the Brocato Peppermint Purifying Scrub is probably one of my favorites from their line of products.  I love anything minty in the morning for my hair because it not only helps to wake you up in the morning, but it also has a fresh clean and crisp feeling and smell to it so you can wake up every morning feeling fresh, clean and ready for the day.  I love the Brocato Peppermint Purifying Scrub Shampoo and know you will to if you give it a try.

7.  Alterna The Science of Ten Conditioner.  This is one of the only hair products I have ever seen on the market that claims to work from the first time you use it and almost instantly and there are a ton of testimonials online complaining about the price of the conditioner and shampoo but also going crazy about how well it worked on their hair and how it had actually helped them repair and condition their hair instantly.  Because of all of the damage you do to your hair in the summer time with swimming and being outdoors, this is a definite conditioner that you need to have and use for the fall so you can prep and help get your hair healthy again  for the winter.  Alterna the Science of Ten Conditioner is our number 7 pick for the top shampoos and conditioners for fall.

6.  Matrix Biolage Strengthening Conditioner makes our top ten list in the number 6 spot.    Not only is this a great conditioner to help repair damaged hair and hair that you completely abused during the summer, but it is also one of the most affordable salon quality product lines available to the public.  Because if it’s effectiveness to do what it says it will do and its affordability to the general public the Matrix Biolage Strenghtening Conditioner makes it in the number 6 spot on our top ten shampoos and conditioners list.

5.  Bumble and Bumble Creme de Coco Shampoo.   Ok, if you cannot let summer go or need that extra boost of tropical smells and pina coladas, then the Bumble and Bumble Creme de Coco Shampoo is probably the perfect shampoo for you.  Not only does it smell amazing like coconuts, but it also uses coconut milks in it to help smooth and make your hair stronger, shinier and help your hair to look and feel a lot healthier.  We love the Bumble and Bumble Creme De Coco Conditioner and if you can’t let the tropical summer or vacations go, then you need to buy this shampoo and you’ll be able to enjoy a tropical morning every morning when you wake up and shower with your new coconut based shampoo and conditioner.

4.  Rusk Purifying and Deep Cleansing Shampoo makes our list in the number 4 spot.  This is one of the most amazing shampoos for deep cleaning from Rusk.  It is made with extracts from Teas and from Cucurbita.  Not only does this shampoo help to deep clean your hair, but it also helps to make it look and feel healthier and stronger and this is also a personal favorite for its smell by a few people here in our office.   The Rusk Purifying and Deep Cleansing Shampoo is our number 4 pick for the best shampoos and conditioners for fall.

3.  Kerastase Bain Age Recharge Shampoo is our number three pick for the best shampoo and conditioner for fall.  Not only is this one of the best products available from Kerastase, but it is also not extremely affordable since it is now on sale here at Hair Care Discounters.  Kerastase Bain Age Recharge Shampoo is an amazing shampoo that will help to recharge and get your aging and damaged hair looking and feeling young and alive again.  Because of its almost instant results for many people who have used this shampoo, it is in our number 3 spot.

2.  Sebastian Pentraitt Shampoo is our number two best shampoo and conditioner for fall.  Not only is it the perfect shampoo for color treated hair, but it helps to protect your color as well as help to repair the damage done from coloring it.  This is one of the most overlooked shampoos for people with color treated hair and if you color your hair a lot or have color damage, we highly recommend you give the Sebastian Penetraitt Shampoo a try and see how amazing it can be not only for your hair but also for your color.   If you have colored hair, you have to try this shampoo.

1.  Our number one best shampoo and conditioner for fall is by far one of the hardest to find.  It is MoroccanOil Shampoo and Conditioner.  Not only do these products work amazingly well, but they also contain the argan oil extracts that everyone in the world is going crazy for and because of the demand for the oil and how rare it is, the products price keeps going up.  However, even though it is a bit pricey right now, it is completely worth the money for the MoroccanOil Shampoo and Conditioner.  The shampoo and conditioner are safe for all hair types, work with your hair color and colored hair, help to repair damage and help get your hair looking and feeling amazing again,,,or give it that extra boost of life that it needed….not to mention the products look and smell great too.  MoroccanOil is probably the best product line at affordable prices right now and because of how amazing this product line works on soo many people, the MoroccanOil Shampoo and Conditioner are our number one pick for the best shampoo and conditioner for the fall.

Although we love a lot more shampoos and conditioners, we could only pick ten for our top ten list, however there are a millio other shampoos and conditioners out there and a lot more available at Hair Care Discounters so if you don’t like any of the shampoos and conditioners that we mentioned here in this post, visit our site and find a lot more options for you and your hair type or even find a new one that you have never tried and you can also use the hair care discounters coupon code 7off70 until 10/31/09 to save 7% off your purchase of $70 or more and get free shipping and a free gift with your purchase of $70 or more.

The Price of MoroccanOil Has Skyrocketed…but why?

  • Posted on September 30, 2009 at 6:11 pm

I wish I could blame the price of MoroccanOil skyrocketing on corporate greed and heavy markups and then let you know that our costs will stay the same, but unfortunately that is definitely not the case with this product.  The fact of the matter is that this is one of the best selling products and most in demand products on the market because it is one that actually works for most people who have tried it.  Almost everyone I have spoken to that has used it including myself and my mom and a lot of my friends have all gotten some of the benefits from MoroccanOil Products, but since this product seems to work on most people, at least the ones I have spoken too, it becomes more and more in demand.

With more demand comes the need for more of the product, but unfortunately the Main ingredient of MoroccanOil Products is Argan Oil from the Argana Plant which can only be found in Morocco and is also endangered.

The Argana Plant is now mostly only found on reserves where it is grown under the protection of the government or different agencies since it is an endangered plant, and harvesting it for cosmetics is only able to be done soo much and there is only so much available.  Because of the heavy popularity of products like MoroccanOil Oil Treatment that need the argan oil, it becomes harder and harder to come by the products and there is only so much that can be created until you can get more of the plants grown and their oil extracted for cosmetic purposes.

Now, there is no need to worry about running out of the trees or the product since the tree is making a come back and being grown for cosmetics and cosmetic companies as well, the thing you do have to worrry about is the heavy popularity of the products creating a much higher demand.  Because the demand has grown soo heavy, and the plant is endangered and can only be grown soo much, there is obviously a gap in the math and basic economics says that when there is more demand than supply, prices will go up.  This is also true with MoroccanOil Products.

Because there is a huge demand for the product, but the argan oil and the products are getting harder to come by and find, until the next time they can get more argan oil, prices start to go up since the products become more and more hard to order and keep in stock.  Because the suppliers are running low, they have to increase their prices to help deal with demand making it harder to come by and margins much slimmer for companies like ours that sell you authentic product at discounted rates.  So because of the popularity of the MoroccanOil Products, and the lack of supply in the market, our prices, just like everyone else had to go up a little bit, however we are still offering it at seriously discounted rates and when the products become more readily available on the market again, we will do our best to get our prices back down to the low costs they were at before and we will continue to do our best to provide you with the lowest prices on the internet for products like MoroccanOil and other hard to find and usually overpriced products.

Anyways, we just wanted to reach out to all of you and let you know one of the main reasons that the prices of products like MoroccanOil have skyrocketed and that we are working on finding more suppliers and more product so that we can lower our costs by finding suppliers who can also get it to us for less and continue to provide you with the same authentic salon quality products at discounted and wholesale prices.

important things to remember when dieting

  • Posted on September 23, 2009 at 6:17 am

So I have been dieting for a couple weeks and am starting to get into shape for my trip to California.  The thing that I noticed though that I did not expect was that my skin and hair would dry out.  I am sure it had something to do with my flu and drying me out but what I learned was to amp up my hydrating conditioners for my hair and use a stronger moisturizer.

Now, I am not saying that you should do this, but I noticed this morning that my skin just looked really dehydrated and my was healthy but was starting to dry.  The worst though was when I opened my cucumber and tonic mask (we don’t carry this one yet) and it had dried so I couldn’t deep clean and tighten but thank gosh my spf 17 moisturizer was still in tact.

So when I noticed all of this I decided that dry skin and dry hair is not ok and I took action.  This might not work for you since everyone has different skin types, but I took my other deep cleaning mask, mixed in some honey and started to clean my face.  I then took my moisturizer and applied it to my face.  I then went jogging and when I came back I showered and cleaned my face then applied another round of my spf 17 moisturizer and in the shower I used my sample of Alterna Ten Conditioner and Moroccan Oil and although my face started to look a lot healthier, my hair looked 100% amazing and completely back to health.  I should have taken pictures ahead of time because the shots would have been amazing.  If you have not tried the Alterna Ten Conditioner or MoroccanOil Oil Treatments yet, you seriously are missing what is in my opinion an amazing combination of products and my hair looks and feels like it is a million times better.  It seriously was an amazing difference and I am going to swear by these products now.

Now remember, everyone has different skin and hair types, so although these products did wonders for me, they may not work the same, but I seriously recommend you give them a try as I am in love with Alterna now and I have always been a fan of MoroccanOil and think that you all seriously need to try them for yourself.  For the skin creams, when we carry the ones that I use on a daily basis I will definitely be doing a ton of posts for them, but for now you seriously need to try the Conditioner and MoroccanOil Treatment that I used today if you see your hair starting to dry out.  You are seriously going to love these products and they will help to get your hair not only looking more healthy and full of life but if you end up loving them as much as I do, you will seriously never be able to stop using them again.
