    Default For real?

    Ok, I just saw a pantene commercial and I really have to wonder........is anyone's hair really that smooth and shiny without doing anything but a shampoo and condish?

    The only way I can get my hair to even resemble something like that is to flat iron it and sleep with it in a bun (when I first flat iron it's a bit fizzy). Even than, my hair does not look as good as it does in the commercial.

    When combed, loaded with cones and not slept on, my hair is shiny and smooth..for 3 minutes. After that, it doesn't look half that sleek.

    I can't say anything about the smooth part... and I don't really use shampoo much anymore. But my hair's shine could blind somebody in bright sunlight. Pantene's got NOTHING on me. I have a couple pics of my hair in bright (and indirect...) sunlight in my photobucket account somewhere, I'll have to sift through the pages and see if I can find them.

    Would love to see those, that would make me believe that it is possible for someone to have hair like that....your blessed if your hair is like that.

    I Blessed! or cursed as I love the look of curls and waves but they never stay for long.

    If I use a cone condish like Pantene and comb my hair out it is straight and mirror like. My hair only likes cones once in a while thought, otherwise I get buildup and it looks gross. I get asked if I flat iron my hair when I wear it like this.

    Notice how shiny your hair is when you take a photo with a flash? They are shining a spotlight on the model's hair when she is in direct sunlight, which yields that same brilliant shine as a flash does. One doesn't notice the spotlight, as the ambient light is bright... Tricky, eh?
