I’m no dumb blonde, but now my shampoo and conditioner are. Allow me to explain:

Last Monday, I had a major hair crisis. My friend Chrissy had been playing with my hair when she found five knots - no, more like dreads - in the underneath section of my curls. I ran my hands down the back of my head, panicked and ran to the mirror. All the while, Chrissy’s laughing, “We’re going to have to shave your head.”

Mortified, I called my friend and stylist Desaree.

The very next day Desaree, now my savior, came over and cut out the knots and conditioned my dead and damaged locks. My hair was salvaged, but I had to make some major changes to my hair care routine. Because of my thick tresses, Desaree suggested I find a conditioner with a lot of moisture in it.

While I was shopping on Saturday, I stumbled upon a salon with a Dumb Blonde duo pack. No, I’m not referring to the stylists, but a product in the Tigi Bed Head hair care line.

If you’re a guy or gal with thick, dry and unmanageable hair, yet you insist on getting highlights or having chemical treatments from time to time, this is the product for you. Dumb Blonde is a reconstructor that can be used as a PH balancer, daily conditioner or hair mask.

Tigi products can be purchased online and at almost any salon. I found my Dumb Blonde duo pack for an amazing $19.95 at Regis Salons in the Wyoming Valley Mall.
