Hello World! | My Hair

Okay so I've decided to start writing a blog. On what you may ask? EVERYTHING!Well pretty much everything I encounter and think I'd like to chat about anyways. Why? Because I can!

Also, I pretty much am not very good at being a girl (hair, make-up, fashion... I pretty much fail at all of it) so I figured I would share my attempts, successes and failures here. It seems a little less scary to write about my experiences and post pictures than it does to start a Youtube account. Baby steps people! And this site seems to allow vidoes so that is kind of neat!

So let's get started. Who am I?

Well my name is Lydia and I live in a small town in Ontario, Canada. I'm kind of quirky and as well as being a pretty failure at being a girl I have a dog and a boyfriend and over all my life seems pretty good. I have psoriasis and its pretty much the bane of my whole existence. I'll be trying things out for that here too so if you know of anything let me check it out!

I work as a Graphic Designer and I'm looking at going back to school for Psychology and maybe eventually one day becoming a sexologist. What is that you may ask? Its like a psychologist - but for your midnight romps. ;) Or daytime romps. Which ever you prefer or end up having.

I don't know why, "romp" has always sounded kind of sexual to me. What say you we have a romp in the bedroom? Heh.

Moving on!

I'm 23 and I am generally interested in trying new things so if you, mystery reader, ever want me to give something a go let me know!

And now for the second part of this little blog here...

My Hair

I cut my hair short and I don't like it anymore. Sad face. So I did some research and found out two possible aids in making my lovely locks grow back faster! I'm going to give it a go and post up weekly shots of my hair and we'll see what happens!

First off is Cod Liver Oil. I read that any kind of fish oil is good for your skin and hair so I've begun taking some of those capsuls every day! So far... no difference but its only been about a week - less than since I was away from home most of the week. So really we'll count this as day one...

And Folic Acid. Yes, I know normally people take that when they're having a baby or trying to have a baby, but I read that it aids in the growing of hair and nails and is good for your skin. AND in my big book of Herbal Healing it says its good for psoriasis. SO WE WILL SEE!

My Skin

This wasn't in the title but I just remembered that I picked up something to try for my psoriasis at the drug store today. The doctor recommended Glaxal Base because it seems to be more moisturizing than most lotions so its supposed to relieve the itch some and help with the scaly bits.

Also I picked up another little present to my skin and it is the Garnier Body Intensive 7 Days Soothing Gel-Cream with Peach Oil. Its said to have you feeling soft and smooth for up to 7 Days so I'm going to test that. Mostly because I pretty much never remember to moisturize. So far I really like it because it didn't leave me feeling greasy. Smells alright too.

So this is how long my bangs are today.

And this is my hair not looking like a mushroom cap.
