Revlon Color Silk Review

I started dyeing my hair right after I graduated from 8th grade. My natural hair color was dark brown, close to being black. My sister and I decided to give myself a "makeover" since I was going to be an incoming freshman in high school. I dyed it medium golden brown. And I gotta say, I looked really different. :)

My sisters and I love to experiment with different colors. Nothing crazy, of course. We have tried medium golden brown, chestnut, auburn brown, dark brown, dark mahogany brown, and soft black.

Revlon Color Silk is great for a student like me. It is affordable and the directions are clear and easy to follow. The box includes plastic gloves in each hair dye package. I usually use two boxes since I have really long, thick hair. So if your hair is like that too, you will definitely need to purchase two. I have no problems with the formula and that is a plus since I have a very sensitive scalp and skin.

Revlon Color Silk is my go-to hairdye. It is perfect for my student budget and easy to use!

What about you? Which hair dye brand do you use?

The hair is the richest ornament of women.

[Jennifer Lopez]
If you go hard you gotta get on the floor
If youre a party freak then step on the floor
If your an animal then tear up the floor
Break a sweat on the floor
Yeah we work on the floor
Dont stop keep it moving
Put your drinks up
Pick your body up and drop it on the floor
Let the rhythm change your world on the floor
You know were running sh*t tonight on the floor

Straight to LA New York

Coming Soon: Beastly

Beastly

A modern-day take on the Disney classic Beauty and the Beast.

Starring Alex Pettyfer, Vanessa Hudgens, Mary-Kate Olsen, Neil Patrick Harris, and Lisa Gay Hamilton

Kyle Kingson has it all - looks, intelligence, wealth and opportunity - and a wicked cruel streak. Prone to mocking and humiliating "aggressively unattractive" classmates, he zeroes in on Goth classmate Kendra, inviting her to the school's extravagant environmental bash. Kendra accepts, and, true to form, Kyle blows her off in a particularly savage fashion. She retaliates by casting a spell that physically transforms him into everything he despises. Enraged by his horrible and unrecognizable appearance he confronts Kendra and learns that the only solution to the curse is to find someone that will love him as he is - a task he considers impossible. Repulsed by his appearance, Kyle's callous father banishes him to Brooklyn with a sympathetic housekeeper and blind tutor. As Kyle ponders how to overcome the curse and get his old life back, he chances upon a drug addict in the act of killing a threatening dealer. Seizing the opportunity, Kyle promises the addict freedom and safety for his daughter, Lindy if she will consent to live in Kyle's Brooklyn home. Thus begins Kyle's journey to discover true love in this hyper-modern retelling of the classic Beauty and the Beast story.
