Pantogar review

Tuesday, September 16

Hi guys!


Guess who finally decided to show up? haha .. sorry for the very long lack of posts but i was really busy with school        ( the life of a med student :S) 

Anyway, today i´m talking about my review of the very famous Pantogar



I took this pill for 6 months and honestly, i hated it! first of all it is really expensive, i spent almost $400 USD on this treatment, the first 3 months the only thing i noticed was my weight! this thing will make you really Hungry so obviously i gained some weight (that i haven´t been able to lose yet)

Now,talking about hair growth.. i didn´t noticed any particular growth , my hair grew at the same pase that it always does but it didn´t fell as much as it used to (while i was taking the pill)

If you research about this product on the web you´ll see a lot of people praising it , i guess every body is different, so you would have to try it yourself but i really wouldn´t recommend it.

If you have any questions about this product let me know!

*i didn´t post any progress picture because i was really disappointed with the product

Myth or miracle #3: Mane and tail shampoo and conditioner

Tuesday, May 6

Hello guys!

Today i´ll write a little about a really popular brand for hair growth: mane and tail



The mane and tail shampoo and conditioner got really popular a few years ago because it was supposed to increase hair growth like i said before, also it was a really different product because it was meant mostly for horses hair and who doesn´t want that thick long hair (kind of) that horses have?


Let´s talk about what the brand says 
Well, now i´ll tell you what i think of it :

i´ve tried a lot of mane and tail versions but this time i´m talking about the first that came out, the original.

The shampoo leaves your hair squeaky clean which is probably one of the ways that it is supposed to increase hair growth, it also leaves the hair really shiny.

The conditioner on the other side is not very moisturizing, i didn´t like it.

Now, hair growth wise none of this products made my hair grow any faster  they just left my hair clean and shiny , that was about it.

So in my opinion this products are just another hair growth myth.

I´ve seen a lot of girls saying that it works wonders, what do you guys think?

Review: QuikStyle Paddle Brush

Sunday, April 27

Hi guys!

Today i´ll do a review of a paddle brush but not just any paddle brush , this one haves towel like bristles too, it promises to dry the hair up to 30% faster


Now let me tell you what i think of it, let´s start by how i use it:
first i towel dry my hair like i normally would , then i apply a leave- in conditioner and brush my hair with the wet brush (review here) and after that i´ll take the quikstyle paddle brush.

My hair takes in average 4 to 5 hours to get fully dry, since i started to use this brush my hair dries in about 3 to 4 hours which to me is awesome! i really love this product it works really nice and is easy to use .

what do you think? have you tried it?

Pantogar: Rapunzel project April/May/June

Friday, April 25

Hello!



Today i decided to let you guys know that as part of April/May/June rapunzel´s project i´ll be taking a supplement called pantogar (or pantovigar) that is very known in Brazil for making the hair really strong , stop shedding and sometimes increasing hair growth. 
I´ll be posting pictures every month  to compare the results .The dosage that i´ll be taking will be the recommended one by the brand, 1 pill with every meal (3 pills a day) during three months which is supposed to be the minimal time for seeing results.

The price of this product is not very friendly i payed about 60 USD for the box that lasts a month but i´m pretty sure you can find it cheaper on Amazon or something, some brazilian girls take a manipulated formula that is like half the price but i wouldn´t recommend it, i rather keep it safe.

In case you want to know more take a look at this


I know you probably would want to know more about this product but I´m not gonna get really technical with the info of this supplement  because i would just do some copy+paste from the site so if you wanna know more you can check here and if you wanna see some results you can google it and you´ll find plenty of them!

Also this supplement was recommended to ME by a doctor so please consult one before using it

Taking care of your hair on spring /summer

Monday, April 21

Hello!

Long time no see, right? sorry for the lack of posts but i went on vacation and my computer broke so i couldn´t post anything. On my trip i had to take some special care with my hair so i decided to share with you my tips for keeping your locks healthy. I know it´s a little late but summer is coming and some people live on really warm places so why not post this? 

Let´s begin



1. Use leave in conditioner
if you are swimming on the beach or pool i recommend you to apply a lot of leave-in conditioner before and after it

2.Use sun designed hair products
there are plenty of them, they protect you hair from the sun and repair the damage that all of the spring/summer activities give and you have a huge list of options, swimmers shampoo, leave in conditioners , hair masks ,oils and some products are formulated with SPF for the hair!



3.Treat you hair
after all of the sun and chlorine your hair will need a special treat use a a nourishing or moisturizing mask



4.Wear a hat!
it will cover you hair from the sun and also make you look pretty!

5.Braid your hair
while you are in the sun or a windy place braid your hair or put it on a bun to avoid breakage from the wind and damage from the sun!

6.* Use a purple shampoo and/or color treated hair products
the sun can fade you hair color a lot so you´ll need al the help you can get also if you are a blonde your hair may turn green because f the chlorine on the pools, a purple shampoo can fix that.

With this tips you´ll be more than ready for a few days on the beach! hope it helps!
