Product review: Chihtsai No. 12 Instant Treatment

I started to use Chihtsai No. 12 Instant Treatment about two years ago. I use it control frizz on my hair and add shine. I find it to be better than the oil drops from other lines.

The product is a pomade that claims to prevent hair from environmental damages, to help detangle, prevent split ends and to nurture the hair with vitamin-E and other nutrients.

It has worked very well for me. I only use the equivalent of a couple of drops so the bottle lasts forever and it leaves my hair shiny and free of frizz and flyways. I think I will continue to use it.

Long hair at any age?

I am tired to read and hear that after 40+ women should not:
1- wear mini skirts (please someone go and tell Jennifer Lopez, Gwen Stefani,
Halle Berry and all the rest).

2- Do not let your hair grow long. Oh really. I love how it looks on Demi Moore, Salma Hayek and so many more.

There are a lot of myths about age. At what age we are old is a matter of perception. Middle age or being called elderly varies by country. In Latin America a woman becomes "older" or "mature" after 30 and in Japan after 25.

There is no limit to wearing long hair, or at least it should not be dictated by a rigid principle that no one knows how it was formed. I like how Frederick Fekkai puts it, "It depends on the age of the hair not the person."

There are people who cannot wear long hair at any age, because their hair is too thin, or their faces are too small, or their frame is too small and the hair will overwhelm them.

I personally like long hair and I think it is sexy and offers versatility. Like any thing else in life, long or short hair should be a matter of personal style and personal characteristics and not dictated by who knows who.
