How to Choose the Perfect Shampoo and Conditioner for Your Hair Type

When maintaining healthy, shiny, and manageable hair, choosing the right shampoo and conditioner is crucial. With so many options on the market, it can feel overwhelming. Whether you’re looking for an anti-hair loss shampoo, a clarifying shampoo, or a sulfate-free shampoo, understanding your hair's needs is the first step. Here's your beginner's guide to finding the perfect match for your hair type and concerns.

Identify Your Hair Type

Before diving into product labels, take a moment to assess your hair type. Is your hair fine, thick, curly, oily, or dry? For fine hair, lightweight formulas like a hair-thickening shampoo can add volume without weighing it down. Those with curly or textured hair benefit from rich conditioners like the Aveda Brilliant Conditioner 200ml, designed to hydrate and define curls. If your hair is prone to oiliness, a clarifying shampoo can remove buildup, leaving your scalp feeling fresh.

Address Specific Concerns

Different hair concerns require tailored solutions. If you’re experiencing dandruff, an antidandruff shampoo such as Isdin Nutradeica Antidandruff Shampoo 200ml is a game-changer. It not only soothes the scalp but also targets flakes effectively. For hair loss concerns, an anti-hair loss shampoo helps nourish your roots and improve scalp health over time.

For those battling scalp issues, an antibacterial shampoo can provide relief while keeping your hair clean and healthy. Alternatively, if you want to pamper your locks, the Shampoo & Conditioner Brews Redken Brews Champú 300 ml offers professional-grade care to elevate your haircare routine.

Consider Sulphate-Free Options

Sulfates are common in many shampoos, but they can strip natural oils from your hair, leading to dryness or irritation. If you have sensitive skin or color-treated hair, a sulfate-free shampoo is your best bet. These gentle formulations cleanse effectively without compromising your hair’s natural moisture barrier. Products like the Shampoo & Conditioner Detangling Creme Of Nature (946 ml) are ideal for detangling and hydrating while being kind to your scalp.

Invest in Professional-Grade Products

For a luxurious experience, professional-grade shampoos and conditioners can make a significant difference. Products like Redken shampoo are formulated with advanced technology to meet your hair needs. The Shampoo & Conditioner Brews Redken Brews Champú 300 ml is perfect for everyday use, delivering nourishment and a polished finish.

Incorporate Hair Maintenance Practices

While the right products are essential, pairing them with good haircare habits enhances results. Avoid over-washing as it can strip your hair of essential oils. Instead, find a balance that suits your hair type. Fine hair may need more frequent washing with lightweight formulas, while thick or curly hair thrives with less frequent cleansing and richer conditioners.

Deep conditioning treatments, like the Aveda Brilliant Conditioner 200ml, can be used weekly to boost moisture levels. To prevent buildup, integrate a clarifying shampoo into your routine once or twice a month.

Your Hair Deserves the Best

Finding the perfect shampoo and conditioner may require trial and error, but the right products can transform your hair’s health and appearance. Whether you’re combating dandruff, seeking a gentle sulfate-free shampoo, or wanting a luxurious Redken shampoo, there’s a solution tailored to your needs. Explore options like the Isdin Nutradeica Antidandruff Shampoo 200ml for targeted care or the Shampoo & Conditioner Detangling Creme Of Nature (946 ml) for easy detangling and hydration.

Achieve salon-worthy results at home by choosing high-quality products that enhance your natural beauty. Start your journey today with these top picks and enjoy the confidence that comes with healthy, radiant hair.

How to manage hair fall? – A Few Ways to Do So

Normally whenever people face the spectre of hair loss a lot of them do not know where they should turn to for help. They also try other methods such as parting their hair differently or changing their entire hairstyle as such. They buy products such as hair thickening shampoo without having any idea if it would be helpful for them or not – they do so just because it claims to be the best solution for their hair loss issue. They also start consuming supplements such as vitamins that are supposed to help their hair grow back. At times, they also stop using their shampoo as frequently as they did earlier.

Get checked with a certified dermatologist

This is especially true when you are faced with an issue that is as serious as male pattern baldness. There are so many reasons why you may be losing your hair. The thing is the sooner you find it better would be your chances of getting the results that you are looking for in this case. This is why you need to get checked by dermatologists, doctors who are trained to diagnose conditions that affect our skin, nails, and hair. They can identify the underlying cause of the issue and also treat it, especially when they are working for top names such as andSons in Malaysia.

Wash and condition your hair but do not damage it 

No matter what hair fall treatment you avail of to deal with your issue, there are certain basics that you need to keep in mind and this is one of them. If your hair is already falling out and thinning it is fragile and it can get damaged rather easily. This is why dermatologists recommend that patients who are suffering from hair loss use a mild shampoo and apply a conditioner, which moisturizes, following every shampoo. They must also use a detangler or a leave-in conditioner. 

There are so many other tips that you should keep in mind in this particular context. Make sure that you never use hot-oil treatments. Never colour, perm, chemically straighten, or relax your hair at home. Restrict your usage of curling irons, hot combs, and flat irons. Use them only on special occasions such as job interviews. If you use a blow dryer, use the lowest heat setting on it. Stop pulling back your hair tightly in buns, cornrows, ponytails, braids, and pigtails.

A Very Niche Level-Up + Looksmaxxing Idea List for 2025

This list is for the girls that get it. It’s niche and not for everyone, but I’m throwing up at the fact that every “how to level up in 2025” post talks about journaling sad pages 24/7, drinking 8 cups of water a day, and walking 10k steps. How original.

Again, this is a very niche set of ideas. If you can’t relate then you can’t relate. But if you enjoy a good plastic surgery post and luxe lifestyle, maybe you will :)

1. Upgrade your car. We’re getting the Lexus’, the BMW’s, the Mercedes, the Jag’s, etc.

2. Upgrade your home. We’re living in high rises, we’re living in coastal areas, we’re living up in the mountains, we’re living where Amazon can drop our package off and we don’t have to worry about a porch pirate; we’re living in nice areas and in nice units/homes.

3. Breast augmentation.

4. Rhinoplasty.

5. Medical grade skincare.

6. Fresh, organic whole foods; focusing on lean protein, nuts and seeds, mushrooms, onions, leafy greens, pro/prebiotics, sea moss gel, etc.

7. Russian manicures and pedicures or a good acrylic set. Dip powder had its thing for a while but I’m not going to dip my nail in a powder everyone else dipped their nails. I bet they don’t even wash their hands and if they did, they prob didn’t even use soap.

8. Laser hair removal. Everywhere. If you want a design down there that’s cool, but you literally use the bathroom and it drips in the hair. “Oh but I use a wipe”. Okay, next time you need to wash your hair.. don’t use shampoo. Use a wipe. Invest in a bidet but still, hair shouldn’t be in your 🍑 or near the sensitive areas of your 🦋 the top is fine but if you have a period, pee, or “the other thing”, hair should be no where near those areas.

9. Lip filler. Everyone can benefit. Ask for a pout that sticks out a little bit. I don’t suggest a lip flip, I couldn’t do anything with a lip flip and it was driving me nuts.

10. Fake tan. Sunlight is fine but a spray tan just makes you look a million times better. Every skin tone and every race benefits from a spray tan. Trust.

11. Muscle definition. Muscle looks so much better than fat AND bones. You want muscle. Did you see how Bella Hadid had her foot on our necks at the VS fashion show this year? I was sickkkkkk.

12. Long hair. But if you have a face shape like Hailey Beiber, short hair looks better.

13. Makeup. Remember water-based products and oil-based products don’t mix, so make sure you choose your products wisely so your makeup doesn’t separate and you look a mess.

14. A better paying job. I left my hospital job and now I work in luxury real estate and international yacht sales.

15. Red light therapy for face and body. I have a body red light therapy dome that I got online for around $3,000 (USD) and it’s life. The one I have for the face is from Sephora and I spent like $400-$500 on that one. Whatever it says on the website.

16. Lashes. If you’re a pro at strip lashes, then yes. But I get my lashes done. Do not go crazy. Natural lashes are in so I ask for a classic whispy set focused for thickening my lash line and NOT for length.

17. Morpheus8 for skin tightening. I used it on my inner thighs and it literally saved my life

18. Lipo. If you’re a good candidate, get it. Sometimes belly pooch is hard to lose. I don’t have a pooch but I’m sure when I have kids I will.

19. Vampire facials. I can confidently say my best facials were vampire facials. My med spa charges around $950 for each facial

20. People can tell you’re wearing Shein. Their clothes are cute online but I’m going to hold your hand when I say this, they never look flattering in person when they’re being worn. People can see the loose thread and the see-through material. They also don’t fit anyone well and makes a lot of you look square. You get what you pay for in clothing. Learn about the basics of clothing and you’ll quickly only buy quality.

Yeah this list isn’t meant for everyone, but walking 10,000 steps isn’t going to take you to the next level. Neither is drinking water. They’re good habits, but they’re not going to level you up. And yeah I understand my list requires having money, but this is literally what my blog is about.

My 2025 Mindset Level Up book is here!

Missing You // B. Wayne x f!reader

Requested? Yes!

Warnings: SMUT 18+ ONLY, minors begone. I’m so serious about this. Go away.

Summary: After a long day of not seeing your husband, your reunion exceeds expectations.

It was late when he got in. You didn’t even realize Bruce came home until you were awoken with a gentle touch to your shoulder. A sharp breath escaped you and your husband whispered out an apology.

“Hey,” you greeted in a rough, sleep-coated voice. “What time is it?”

“Five,” he answered. He already showered and dressed in sweats and a cotton t-shirt. Water still clung to his dark hair which made the slick strands curl up against his collar. You reached up and smoothed your fingers over the back of his head, eliciting a small smile from him.

“I missed you,” you murmured. He bent down and slipped his arms around your lower back. Your legs went around his waist, but you knew you didn’t need to cling tightly. Bruce would never drop you.

“Missed you too, darling,” he said as he pulled you into his arms. You rested your cheek against his shoulder and ran your hands up and down his back as he carried you towards the elevator that led to the door out of the cave. The austere rock walls shifted into the soft, wallpaper lined walls of the manor.

It had been a long day for both of you. Bruce was still in bed when you left him to head to Wayne Enterprises and handle the piles of paperwork that had taken root on your desk. That combined with numerous meetings and you didn’t get home until he was already out on patrol. Sitting in the cave and watching over his movements on the streets of Gotham was a small comfort from actually seeing him and feeling him.

“God, you smell good,” you moaned against the skin of his neck. He chuckled as he pushed the door to your bedroom open.

“My wife buys my shampoo and body wash,” he teased.

“She’s a smart woman.”

He set you down gently on the bed but didn’t step away to move to his side. Instead, Bruce leaned in and kissed you with the tender touch of a man desperately in love. You tilted your head to get a better angle and nibbled on his bottom lip. He huffed out a laugh but granted you access so you could taste the remnants of his mint toothpaste.

“How tired are you tonight?” you asked once you pulled away for air.

“Depends on why you’re asking,” he said as your hands fell to the waistband of his sweatpants. You grinned and grabbed his hips to maneuver him to lay back on the bed. Bruce watched as you moved off the bed and stood in between his legs. Slowly, teasingly, you pulled your shirt over your head and tossed it onto the ground before the rest of your clothes quickly followed.

Resting your hands on the edge of his waistband, you raised your head to look at him in a silent question. He nodded and you eased his pants off. The thick curve of his cock was already thickening up and you wrapped your hand around it, stroking your hand up and down his length. Precum helped slicken up the traction and soon, he was fully erect and waiting.

You threw one of your legs over his hips and guided the tip of him into your waiting, wet cunt. Sometimes you needed prep and Bruce was always willing to help, but you had been practically soaking through your pants at work thinking about him and his sexy fucking body.

Sinking down onto his cock was a glorious experience. It was as if he was a missing puzzle piece. You never felt so full and filled as you did when you were with Bruce. A shaky breath escaped you as you settled down, taking him fully. His hands landed on your hips and you met his gaze.

“Always so good for me,” he said in that low, hoarse voice that bordered just on the edge of the one he used on the streets of Gotham. Heat pulsed between your legs and you rocked forward, relishing in the drag of his length against your hot, wet cunt.

You leaned down to capture his lips once more as your hips rose and fell along his cock. Little grunts and pleased groans escaped him and you burned with pleasure at the thought of how you were the only woman who would ever see him like this. The Bat of Gotham was pliant putty in your hands, waiting to be molded and consumed by you.

“Missed you so much,” you whispered as you mouthed along his jaw. One of your hands came down to rest between the two of you, your finger moving to slide against the bundle of nerves that rested at the top of your cunt.

“Missed you more,” he grunted. Bruce carefully flipped you onto your back, one of his hands going up to rest on the headboard and the other cradling your hips as he pulled out and slid back in with a forceful slide of his hips. Your lips parted in a silent gasp as he filled you once more and he chuckled, running his nose along your cheek before dipping his lips to press against yours.

His hand moved from the headboard to cradle your head against his neck as he made love to you. Helplessly consumed with the tingling shocks of pleasure that grew and built in your stomach, you simply wrapped your legs around his waist and pulled him impossibly closer.

“I’m never letting you leave this bed,” you moaned. You could feel him smirk against your temple as he bottomed out once more and you whimpered, your eyes rolling back into your head.

“Let me hear those pretty noises, darling. Don’t even know what you do to me, do you?” For a man who was normally so quiet, you always knew he was close because he would start to ramble like a sinner confessing all of his mistakes. “I miss you anytime I don’t see you. I never knew peace until I met you. You’re so good to me, my sweet girl. That’s right. My girl. My wife. And no one will ever hurt my wife. I won’t let them.”

He hiked your leg up further and you whined as he reached a new angle inside of you. He reached down and rubbed your clit, egging on the orgasm that finally peaked and washed over you. 

“Shit,” you whimpered. “Shit Bruce, fuck, yes.”

Bruce buried himself into you and you felt the pulse of his cock and the warmth of his cum coat your walls. You peppered kisses against his cheek and then laid your head back on the pillow to regain your breath.

“That was hot and all,” you panted. “But I’d much rather see you at least once a day.”

“Agreed.” Your husband kissed your temple and then sighed. “And now we have to shower again.”

It had been a long day of travel for Isaac. Vacation was supposed to be fun and relaxing but the last 24 hours had been anything but. Constant delays in his flights had him arriving at his destination later than planned and on top of that his luggage was lost and wouldn’t be delivered until the next day! At least the island resort he was staying at seemed nice enough. The clerk was even kind enough to give him a change of clothes to wear until his luggage came. When Isaac got to his room he looked out at the beach but decided to take a shower before doing anything, he stank from 24 hours of solid travel. So he hopped in the shower and cleaned up. The provided soap and shampoo smelled good, very manly he thought. On getting out he opened the bag of clothes from the clerk. It was a light blue tank top, black gym shorts and a dark blue jock strap. Isaac wasn’t into any of that normal but it was clean clothes so he figure he should use them, they were free too after all. Putting them on he realized that they were to big for him but as soon as he noticed that he began to feel off. He was sweating heavily and then his body started to grow! He groaned as he began to get taller and his body began to fill in with muscle. His nonexistent pecs swelled heavily until they were two massive slabs of meat pushing out his tank. He groaned again, deeper now, as his shoulders rounded out and his traps push up behind his thick neck. His arms thickened quickly two as his skin got tanner. He looked down and could see 8 thick abs popping into existence on his stomach area and the it hit him. He almost doubled over as his legs swelled to thick tree trunks with big hairy feet to support them. Between his now massive thighs he felt his cock growing longer and thicker getting almost 11’’ long and 2’’ thick. His balls swelled with new testosterone and dropped heavily like two oranges between his legs. The massive size of his legs pushed his package forward in his jock strap and made it plainly visible under his shorts. With all that done his face changed and got older becoming late 40s and his hair changed to a short jock hairstyle. His beard grew out nice and full on his chiseled jaw line too. And his skin finished darkening as tattoos appeared on his arms. Isaac was gone, now all that was left was Reza, the husband of the clerk/owner of the resort and the fitness trainer at the outdoor gym. Reza stretched and looked in the mirror. He smiled and gave a thumbs up to himself. “Looking good man” he tumbled in his deep Arabic accented voice. He looked at the clock and knew he needed to get down to the gym to start training his clients. But boy was he horny. His husband was gonna get his ass pounded tonight for sure. Reza walked out of their apartment and down to the gym where he began pumping iron while he waited for his clients. His husband passed and gave him a hug. Reza loved him so much and was ready to give him a night to remember that evening.

2.2k words | smuttober | daddy kink | trans man Kota

read on ao3 comments and reblogs are appreciated

Kenny doesn't know why Kota shies away from him when his lips start to travel further than the curve of his neck or why his hands tug nervously around his shirt as if trying to keep himself wrapped up. Kenny follows Kota's shadow across the bedroom wall as he changes in the bathroom; he listens to the scratch of his slippers and frowns to himself. He stands slowly, wanders around their small apartment as if debating with himself before his face steels and he sticks his feet into his slippers and knocks politely on the door waiting for Kota's curious hum to buzz through the bathroom door.

"Ibu?" He calls just a little quieter than normal and there's a thud behind the door, loud enough that worry sparks its way up Kenny's spine and as he mentally apologizes to whoever is listening, he shoves the door open. He studies Kota's face; the wide eyes, the downturned half open mouth, he blinks at him and Kenny smiles, almost too relieved that a bottle of shampoo is leaking at Kota's feet. "I thought you were hurt." He explains as Kota digs the towel that he's clinging too tighter against his chest.

"You..scared me." Kota mumbles, polished round nails picking at stray white fabric. "I was going too.." He nods behind him to the running water that pools around the drain. His nervous hands pull the towel tighter when Kenny steps closer, wrapping a hand around the base of Kota's wrist.

"What are you hiding? Are you hurt?" His lips pucker a little when Kota's head shakes just soft enough that dry hair twists and shifts across ashamed looking eyes. "If you're not hurt, why are you hiding?" Kota studies Kenny's face for what feels like forever before the corner of his soft eyes crumble and he sighs, dropping the towel. "You have scars?" Kenny whispers, cupping the slashes across his chest with his eyes. And then he smiles; bright and warm and soft enough that Kota's parted lips, press back together. "Is that why you change in here?"

"I didn't want you to see.." Kota admits, nervous hands starting to pick at the hem of his boxers. His voice ebbs like he's ashamed and Kenny just sighs. "You are ashamed!" Kota's voice is wobbling and through the worry that fills his voice, Kenny can pick up on the fearful tears, Kota's hands flail, shoving against Kenny's shirt but Kenny's arms tighten more on his upper arms, squeezing until Kota tucks himself in the crook of his neck, sobbing.

Kenny just holds him until the smell of the shampoo fills his brain and Kota's sniffling stills in his ears. He cradles him softly between his hands, thumb smoothing over the bruises that have started to form. "Ibu, why would you think that would change just because-" Kenny nods at the scars. "It doesn't change who you are..or that I love you." The words come out so easily that Kenny almost doesn't register that he's said it until Kota's leant up and his lips have pressed so deep against Kenny's that it almost hurts. He swallows the taste of him and lets Kota kiss him until his teeth drag across the fat of his bottom lip and Kenny pulls slowly away for air, licking Kota's spit into his mouth as he does so. "What was that for?" He giggles through heavy breaths and Kota just smiles, tugging Kenny back out the bathroom. "Ibu the shower!" Kenny laughs again, pointing over Kota's shoulder.

"In there?" Kota nods and suddenly the breathless flush that's decorated Kenny's cheeks gets darker. He smiles just a little shyly as the two of them gaze at one another, the air around them thickens with every intake of air Kenny takes before he leans up and kisses Kota again, heavy enough that he becomes malleable and soft in his arms. The water is almost too hot against the top of Kenny's head, almost like the droplets that stick his tank top to the back of his spine are just as warm and inviting as the way that Kota's lips and teeth drag across the nape of his neck. The warmth of the flat of his tongue makes Kenny whimper, almost choking on the water that fills his mouth almost too quickly. It's enough to make Kota giggle against his skin and Kenny laughs back just a little, using the pause in the pleasure to pull his shorts and shirt off, it's a lot less sexy then Kenny imagined it as it gets stuck over his face.

Kota's fingers hook around the knotted up tank top and with his help, Kenny wiggles free and for a few moments the two of them stare at one another, studying the softness in each other's faces. "I love you." Kenny whispers again and Kota flashes the same crooked smile Kenny remembered when he sat overwhelmed with affection. He kisses Kota's nose softly chuckling as it twitches "Like a bunny." He whispers and Kenny nudges their noses together, smiling under the pounding water of the shower.

Kota smiles a little more, giggling as he kisses and bites against the curve of Kenny's jaw. "Gonna fuck you like a man." Kota whispers, nipping against the cone of Kenny's ear pulling back just a little when the blush on Kenny's cheeks floats down his chest almost as if Kota can follow the way his veins open under his skin. "You like that?" Kota asks, pushing wet hair off his face and when Kenny nods, Kota just grins, pressing the palm of his hand against Kenny's hip so he can turn around. "Stay like that. Please." Kota asks, squeezing Kenny's hip, he kisses his shoulder blade almost as if he's being polite as he stumbles out the shower, hopping over the pool of shampoo that now sits, half washed away, half bubbling on the floor by their tossed away clothes.

Kenny does exactly what he's told to do. He stands; legs half spread with his forehead pressed against the wet tiles. He soaks in the way his blood pools, hot and warm in the pit of his stomach. He's half hard by the time Kota returns, humming a little to himself. He presses his hand against one of Kenny's asscheeks giggling when he flinches just a little. "Did I scare you?"

"You're cold." Kenny complains, voice soft and breathy against the grout of the tiles. He feels Kota's hand move off his ass and the whimper that slides through his lips is almost pornographic, just enough to make Kota squeeze his hand before settling them above his head. Kenny lets him, feeling Kota's cold chest press against his warm spine. He sighs a little, closing his eyes as Kota works him open, sliding two cold fingers inside him.

"You're gonna warm me up lover." Kota whispers and the edge in his voice makes Kenny's cock tremble against his chest. Kenny nods against the wet tiles, letting broken half moans fall from his lips until he's gasping and opening around Kota's fingers, he counts how many Kota slides in until his fingers twist against a bundle of nerves and Kenny's knees almost fall out from under him, Kota coos a little in his ear, kissing his neck softly as he pulls his fingers out slowly leaving Kenny trembling pathetically under the hot water. "What's wrong?" Kota asks slowly, bending down to kiss the bottom of Kenny's spine. He stands slowly, pressing kisses up the vertebrae of Kenny's spine until the two of them are blinking at one another under the water.

"Need you." Kenny stumbles through the words, breathing heavy. He frowns a little when Kota just clicks his tongue and mumbles something that Kenny doesn't quite hear over the roar of the shower in Japanese. "Hey." He whispers, voice soft and playfully annoyed. He just hit bottom lip out in a pout and he whimpers when Kota kisses him hard enough that Kenny ends up licking into the inside of his mouth with the desperation of a starving dog. "Daddy, please" Kenny whispers, the words slipping into Kota's mouth.

"Daddy” Kota's head cocks to the side for a few seconds before he flashes a crooked half-smile, Kenny watches how the cogs turn in his head, how the inside of Kota's thighs are slick and shimmering under the bright bathroom lights. It makes his head spin when Kota sticks a hand into the front of his boxers, his eyes float closed for what feels like forever as Kenny studies the way his face opens as Kota fingers himself, just enough to get his own wetness on his fingers. He steps closer to Kenny again and using his free hand, forces his mouth open until Kenny's warm mouth can fit his two fingers inside. "Suck." Kota commands and Kenny already has his tongue collecting it. He moans at the feeling of Kota's fingers twitching against the inside of his cheeks, the way Kota tastes as Kenny swallows him down. He makes a mental note through his foggy mind to make him cum later as Kota pulls his fingers away and finally strips his wet boxers off. Kota points forwards and Kenny, obediently turns back to press his face against the tiles. Kota turns the water off and Kenny listens to the pipes gurgling.

The buzzing starts slowly. A gentle rhythmic pattern that makes Kenny's mind feel heavy. He hears Kota whimper behind him and imagines him rubbing the buzzing machine against his sensitive T-dick and Kenny has to grip his hands together above his head to stop himself from wrapping a frantic hand around his twitching leaking cock. He moans, feeling Kota slowly pushing the vibrator through the tightening ring of his asshole and Kenny instantly falls in love with the feeling of Kota inside of him. Each bundle of nerves comes alight under the machine and Kenny falls apart, moaning and begging for more.

Kota whimpers behind him; pressing his front against his back. "Feel me inside you baby?" He whispers and Kenny just sobs in pleasure as reply, the sound drowns out louder and longer when Kota starts moving, slowly at first before he almost can't help himself, he pounds into Kenny heavy enough that it almost makes his wrist hurt. Sweat and the last of the water mix on Kenny's arching back and soon he's begging Kota for more, to go faster and Kenny listens to how the the vibrator turns louder and heavier against him.

He nods frantically when Kota asks him again, slamming one hand against his asscheeks. "Yes daddy! I feel you!" He yells, digging his nails into the fat of his own hands. His cock aches for pleasure but Kota just hums, kissing his cheek, whispering praises in a stuttering mix of japanese and english, Kenny can't focus on either language enough to understand what he's saying. But Kota's voice is so filled with desire and lust that he almost feels himself blooming with love under him, he must be doing something right.

He's so close, he can feel how his balls draw tighter and closer to him as he moans and whimpers and begs Kota to touch him. "I-I’ve been good! I promise!" Kenny begs almost sobbing as Kota slides the slowly around through him and he gasps when he pauses, the tip of the vibrator sits inside him and Kenny rocks his hips backwards desperate for anything that feels like Kota fucking into him like he was shaped for him. Kenny feels Kota turn him around slowly on his shaking legs.

He raises a hand to stroke across his wet cheeks and Kenny blinks wet eyes open as Kota lines his cock up against his stomach. "Daddy wants to watch you" He whispers and Kenny nods, letting Kota shuffle closer and wrap a hand around his aching cock. He hisses at first, the feeling of Kota's hands on him feel just almost a little too much. Kenny smiles softly as Kota turns the vibrator back on and slowly starts moving it again, in time with the pumping on his fist. Kenny knows he won't last long and soon he's squirting across Kota's chest moaning, almost yelling his name as Kota nudges his prostate and Kenny loses himself in the stinging glory of overstimulation.

He's still riding the high a little louder when he lays Kota over the bed as he sucks on his T-dick. He feels Kota's hands twist into his hands and he smiles, twisting his mouth up just a little as he slides his tongue inside him. He feels Kota cum down his throat and he groans in pleasure, pulling away to smile at him through the foggy pleasure that floats through his brain. "Still think I'm ashamed of you daddy?" He whispers once Kota has a little of his breath back.

Kota just shakes his head and smiles blissfully as Kenny kisses his way softer against his scars. "Not now." Kota sits up just a little to pull the blankets around their naked, trembling frames. "I love you Kenny-tan" He whispers into Kenny's fuzzing curls.

Kenny yawns just a little and reaches up to squeeze Kota's hand. He smiles into the first kiss that Kota doesn't pull away from. He just tangles their legs together and lets Kenny kiss him.

think (harry/ginny) | a microfic

day 13 of @hinnymicrofic | prompt: think

He showers quick, tries to scrub the train off him. Snorts at the sight of Vernon’s large bottle of hair-thickening shampoo. Having stared at his uncle’s head all the way back from London, he reckons Vernon’s due a refund.

There's some lurid deodorant of Dudley's - hair gel, too, looks cheap and shit. He feels a stab of pity for whichever poor girl his cousin’s trying to scrub up for these days. Dudley trying to pull, he thinks with a laugh, Christ. But thoughts of pulling lead to thoughts of girls, which lead, inevitably, to thoughts of Ginny.

He shoves the hair gel back on the shelf. Adds Dudley pulling to the don’t think about it list he’d started making on the train, somewhere around the Cumbrian border, when Ron had offered him a Caramel Kappa, Ginny’s favourite, and he’d wanted to throw up all over the chess board.

The Dursleys had waited all of two seconds after he’d slammed the car boot shut before speeding off to dinner at some miserable gastropub off the M3. Suits him fine, wants to be alone. He stabs a fork through the plastic film of his ready-meal, makes sure to puncture the yellow reduced sticker Petunia's left on for his benefit, and watches the bright white of the mashed potato atop the shepherd’s pie whirling around in the microwave. 

You know, it’s made from real shepherd, he’d said to Ginny once. That’s such a dad joke, she’d said, and he’d said I wouldn’t know and she’d said Potter you get one dead dad joke a day and you already used today’s up at breakfast. Shepherd’s pie is on the don’t think about it list, then, he thinks, just before he burns his fingers sliding the ready meal onto a tray. Probably best add cottage pie, too, same idea. Maybe all savoury pies, play it safe.

He flops down on the sofa, feet up on the coffee table, eats straight from the hot plastic as he flicks through channels. The nine o'clock news is all budget this, Hong Kong that, Tim Henman out at Wimbledon. The nine o’clock news is not Dumbledore's dead, Snape murdered him, there’s a war on, Harry Potter's dropped out of school to go hunt bits of Voldemort's dismembered soul. 

Dropped out of school, he thinks. Scandalous, delinquent. What d'you reckon? he asks the Ginny in his head. Harry Potter, troubled dropout? Do anything for you? The Ginny in his head laughs. It’d be fun if she were here, he thinks, curled up next to him on this ugly sofa, taking the piss out of Petunia’s cushion covers and Dudley’s wrestling trophies. Imagines taking her up to his bedroom, pointing out the lamp Dobby whacked himself around the head with. But then the Ginny in his head looks at him and says I never really gave up on you and I knew this would happen in the end, and it all bursts, shatters into a hundred dusty pieces.

He chucks the rest of the meal in the bin, adds dropping out of school to the stupid list. Might as well add the budget, Hong Kong and Tim Henman, why not.

Turns off the telly, goes upstairs and lies on his bed, fully-clothed, staring up at the ceiling, because on the walk from the living room to his bedroom the list has expanded to include his trunk (train, Hogwarts, Ginny), his jumper (still smells a bit like her on the left arm, pathetic), and Hedwig (how does it feel knowing your owl prefers me, Potter?).

He stares out of the window for a while, eyes next door's new extension, which sort of works - ugly nothing suburbia - until he remembers the twins and Ron at the window in a flying Ford Anglia, zooming him off to the Burrow where a little red headed girl is blushing and sticking her elbow in the butter dish and god, this really is shit, isn't it, they weren't lying. She knew then, of course she did. He's never been good at thinking of nothing, has he, and he's thought about her as he falls asleep every day since about October, so what chance does he have now?

He's dreading the dreams the most, knows they'll be unbearable. Almost hopes he dreams of lockets and green light and dead headmasters. Can't be worse than bright brown eyes, freckles on a bottom lip (how do you even get freckles on your bottom lip, Gin? Don't be jealous of my freckles, Potter, just because your skin's so boring), the smell of her hair (what do you mean my hair smells? What is that supposed to mean? Why are you laughing?) and the sound of her laugh and her gasps and the sound of her breathing, soft, lying beside him under the cloak on the lakeshore. Looking down under the table at dinner, seeing her thigh next to his on the bench, hand on his knee, body drawn to his, magnets, magic.

When he wakes groggily the next day - crick in his neck, still in his jeans - his first thought is: he's overslept. He’s missed Ginny on her way down to breakfast, going to be late for Potions, fucked it.

But no, of course not. There’s no Ginny, no breakfast, no Potions. Might still have fucked it, though, who's to say. Don't, he tells himself, as he heads for the bathroom to scrub the night off him, just don't think about it.

Dream hair at home - how to choose a conditioner

What is the function of the conditioner? Is there a correct way to use it? That's what you'll learn in this post First of all, I need to say that the function of the conditioner is to make the hair more malleable. It is not the function of conditioner hydrate, nourish or treat the hair. Including,the treatment should not be carried out every wash.Later, I will bring the protocols and talk more about that. For now, it's important that you understand that conditioner is designed to make your hair more manageable after shampoo application. Nothing more than this. And this malleability that the conditioner provides occurs because it has a pH between 3.5 and 4.8, that is, much lower than the pH of the shampoo. While the shampoo leaves the hard thread, because it needs to be astringent to clean, the conditioner leaves the hair malleable so that it does not break tear or break during detangling or brushing and also to give that delicious feeling to the hair soft. That said, now I need to explain that there is a way correct way to use the conditioner. Yes, just like shampoo, conditioner also has a correct way of application.

After rinsing your hair very well, you will remove excess water. Take the towel and squeeze it to remove all excess moisture. To make things easier, you can even divide the hair in half, half on each side. Oh you are not supposed is to twist your hair inside the towel as if it were the floor cloth in your home! Remember: we need to rescue this hair, and an important step is to take good care of itbalso mechanically, and not just through thecosmetics. So, no twisting

After removing excess water, divide your hair in half, half for each side, put the conditioner in your hand and apply from the ear down. Always from ear and down so that the scalp does not absorb too much of this product. Conditioner was made for the hair lenght, not the scalp. On the scalp, we apply the shampoo, remember? Here, it's just the hair. And how will you apply this conditioner? You are going apply with a closed hand, covering the hair. In that Now is not the time to untangle your hair. It's time just deposit the product. So, apply with calmly and gently so that the conditioner is deposited in all the strands that are inside this strand. Do it for 2 to 3 minutes on each strand, which is the time the conditioner needs to take effect. After that, you know that little bit of product left in your hand? You will lift this strand and apply it all over this top of the head, because this hair up here it also needs to be conditioned. What not to do is to apply the conditioner directly to the scalp, but applying it to the length of the hair is necessary. After applying the conditioner and wrapping each strand well, your hair will be maleable and easy to untangle. If the your hair is rough conditions, it may be that, after apply the conditioner, it becomes all thickened. Stay calm, be patient and keep gloving him until he stay untangled, without needing to use a comb.

Once that's done, now it's time to rinse the hair. Just as it was with the shampoo, it will also be with the conditioner. You will remove completely the entire product of hair. Rinse very well, let the water fall in abundance, as the conditioner needs to be removed.

Yes, there is a product that will stay in your hair until next time washed and which will even protect it from external aggressions. But that We'll see in the next post. Therefore, completely remove the conditioner. I'm insisting on this because we tend to leave a little conditioner in your hair in hopes so that the hair strands are most treated. But that's just a belief that we have, therefore, as have you seen, the conditioner doesn't treats hair. So remove it completely!

And how to choose a good conditioner? As you already know, conditioner does not treat hair.Therefore, we do not need to worry so much about what is in this product in terms of active ingredients. Even so, I will include items here that are commonly are found in good quality conditions:dimethicone, cyclomethicone, dimethiconol, polyquarternium… In short, items with the endings “xane”, “cone” and “conol”. The pH of the product is also an interesting aspect to consider. please note when it comes in the description (most of the time, It is not written and this is common). If written, it should be between 3.5 and 4.5. This is the ideal level to close the cuticles that were opened after the application of the shampoo. (later on ill make a post about products my tricologist recommended for me or maye i can try to translate the pdf)

In this post, you learned that conditioner has the function of making the hair more maleable and soft, facilitating detangling, and that it is not its function to hydrate or nourish hair. Furthermore, you saw that there is a correct way to apply the conditioner and that it is even necessary remove it completely during rinsing.

on the next post about hair care will teach you how to properly protect your hair until the next wash.

Your hair looks very nice, do you use anything on it?

thank you!!! yeah i dont go too crazy tho! mainly after i wash my hair i wrap it and let it towel dry until it's just kinda damp, then i'll spray some Bumble and Bumble Surf Foam Spray before blow drying and brushing! most days i honestly just leave it at that if i can't be bothered to style but sometimes if i want some easy extra volume & texture there's another thickening spray by Bumble and Bumble that i'll use once my hair is fully dry :)

oh and i do use a special purple shampoo that helps tone the color of my balayage but i haven't gotten those highlights restored in a long time so its not visibly doing much right now haha. though i will be getting it redone tomorrow actually! >:D

[anadorablekiwi]

Guys i think the shampoo and conditioner i use that says it thickens hair (through minimizing breakage) is working!!

Ive been using it for a few months now, and i just braided a front portion of my hair and the base of it as only a little smaller than the braided base of all by hair used to be ! (Only slightly an exaggeration. Seriously lol)

Sunshine for Everyone pt.2

Pricefield! Fluff!

Life is Strange - Max Caufield x Chloe Price

After saving Chloe at the expense of Arcadia Bay, our favorite girls are forced to flee their hometown. It soon becomes apparent that while they can run from the storm, running from their desires just isn't plausible.

click here for part one

“I swear I could sleep forever,” Max mutters, cuddling into the blanket further. The motel had proven to be a good idea, using someone else’s hot water and blankets was always nice. The pair were too tired to even notice the television only had four channels, or that the mattress was a little lumpy. Maybe things just weren’t so bad if they had each other.

“We can stay as long as you'd like,” Chloe trails off, “s’cheap enough anyways we deserve a vacation.” she babbles with eyes half closed, no longer sure of her words. The girls lay in bed, inches between. The last room available happened to be a single, and she had managed to haggle the price down, so fucking score again. When the man in the office mentioned the single bed, Chloe felt something flutter deep in her gut. It was a giddy, childlike feeling, but muddled with some sort of anxiety. 

Max shifted in the bed, mind still racing, “Will you hold me?” She heard the words fall from her lips before they even registered in her brain. The question appears to catch both girls off guard. It hung in the air for a moment, Max began to babble, face growing red, “I- 'm sorry I really didn’t mean to… I just, I can't stop it's all too much. I don’t know what's w-wrong with me.”

Without hesitation, she pulls the smaller girl into her arms, as if rehearsed, as if Chloe had been waiting a lifetime. Instantly the tension evicts Max’s body. The sweet musk of her shampoo, perfume, whatever it was completely enveloped Chloe. Holding her tight just felt natural, like all was well with the world. Comforting others has never come easy for Chloe, always awkward, never knowing what to say or do. Not with Max though, she made everything easy. Existing with her felt like hearing an old song and singing along perfectly, yet recalling none of the lyrics. She traces small circles into Max’s back, the smaller girl somewhat buried in her chest.

“There is nothing wrong with you,” Chloe starts, angry at the world for putting her max through all of this, “y-you didn't ask for any of this. You shouldn't have seen even half the shit you did. Max, I swear to you if there was a way I could take it all away, I’d do it.” Max looks up at her, tears in those beautiful blue eyes threatening to spill. A pang of fear hits Chloe right in the gut. Did she say something wrong? Did Chloe cause those tears? 

She begins to ramble, “Shit, I’m not saying I'm not glad I found you again, or that you shouldn’t have saved me or-or anything like that,” a sense of urgency laced her tone, god she was supposed to be helping not making it worse. “I just- I wish I could fix it, seriously Max. I am so so fucking happy you’re with me again. I don’t know, I guess, i-i just feel like it's all my fault” Her voice thickened towards the end, holding back a sob. ‘This is not about you Chloe,’ she thinks, reprimanding herself for being so selfish. But the guilt had been festering, gnawing at her organs like some feral dog with a bone. She was the reason the whole world had turned upside down.

“C-Chloe,” Max mumbled, sitting up to look at her properly. With shaky hands, she took the girl's face in her hands. Forcing Chloe to meet her eyes, hands lingering on her cheeks a bit too long before pushing the messy blue hair behind her ears. Her hands rest languidly on Chloe’s shoulders, reassuring her somehow. Max sat and contemplated her next words before answering, “None of this was you, okay? This is some freak-supernatural stuff okay? I do not blame you. Do you hear me? Please don't ever think that. I’d go through it all again if it meant I had you. Chloe, you're my best friend.”

It was like Max was able to reach inside and undo the knots in Chloe’s stomach. No one had ever done so with such ease, such grace. Not even Rachel, though that hurt to admit. Max just knew her, regardless of the years apart. Deep down, way below the rough punk girl exterior, Chloe was still the same little girl Max had grown up with. A soft smile inched its way to the surface, god how could she not smile looking at her? The way her hair fell, perfectly framed those soft doe eyes. Those fucking freckles and long lashes. The way Max would look up at her, eyelids heavy, how could anyone keep a straight face? Chloe hadn’t realized she was staring until she felt a soft squeeze on her shoulder.

“Thank you,” Chloe mustered up, embarrassment pricking at her cheeks. She shifted in place, yearning for closeness once more. These feelings, they can't be normal. Max’s words reverberate in her skull, ‘my best friend’  they stung a little. Those ten letters formed a lump in her throat, a pit in her chest. The words had some sort of mal effect on her, and she just couldn’t pinpoint the reason. Chloe once again chalked it up to just feeling weird about Arcadia.

The blank look in Chloe’s eyes prompts Max to speak. Whatever had her in such a trance could not possibly be kind. Max used a shaky hand to brush the girl’s cheek, “Do you think we could get some sleep now?” she proposed, pulling Chloe from the complexities that danced in her mind. 

She nods silently and lays her head on the pillow, wriggling slightly to settle in. Max drapes an arm around her shoulders, pulling that mess of blue hair onto her chest. Upon feeling the weight on her chest, Max lets out a breath she didn’t realize she was holding. This was a comfort unknown to her, never before had she felt this light. An absentminded hand travels to Chloe’s hair, despite all the bleach and dye damn it was soft. With her fingers tangled in the blue locks, everything felt right in the world.

“Everything that happened was so terrible,” Max breathes, wanting to offer one final comfort before slumber claimed them both, “It was so terrible, we’re not okay. But we’re gonna be. We can work through it Price, we’re a team and-and we can heal together. I’ll help you, we don't have to face things alone.” max consoled, her voice wavering ever so slightly. 

“It's you and me against the world Caufield, now and forever,” Chloe assured, tightening her grip on the smaller girl, as if afraid she’d get snatched away, “seriously max, what would I do without you?” she let out a small chuckle before closing her eyes and passing out, still entangled with her best friend.

I have yet to begin writing the rest of this (call of duty brainrot is taking over my life) but i promise my google doc has many many ideas. stay tuned ig? lots of love, liz

Simplified Summary :

When it comes to haircare, it truly does depend on each persons hair, no product is one fits all. If you like a product, and your scalp feels clean while your ends feel moisturized, continue use.

Healthy hair habits take priority over products. Keeping your scalp clean is number one, to do so depends on how often you wash. There is no right amount, it is okay to wash daily or weekly. If washing daily, use a shampoo that is lower in surfactants, aim for ones that say “okay for daily use”. If washing once a week, or twice, use one with higher surfactants (clarifying shampoo). If at any point your hair feels as if there is product buildup or the scalp is itchy use clarifying shampoo. number two is to condition frequently, you can condition before or after shampooing. It is helpful to pre-oil your hair 30 minutes prior to showering with coconut oil, coconut oil is the only oil proven to effectively enter the hair cuticle and can help protect against water damage. if you are going days without shampooing, spraying it with conditioning spray or oil on the shafts only is helpful. number three is small habits, dry your hair with a microfiber towel. keep shampoo only on the scalp and conditioner on the ends. squeeze out any excess water out prior to applying conditioner and let it sit for at least 2 minutes, longer if you can. use gentle hair ties and claw clips. put your hair in a protective style before bed. eat properly, get enough rest, and make sure you are hitting protein goals for biotin production. never brush your hair while it’s wet, and don’t over brush. use a leave in conditioner after washing, and avoid heat styling.

ingredients : shampoos and conditioners have a team of hair chemists formulating them carefully, so most haircare products are safe to use, but some are better based on added ingredients. ingredients like proteins, peptides, keratin, butters, oils, silicones, citric acid, glycerin, hyaluronic acid, lactic acid, and salicylic acid can improve hair. when choosing hair products, aim for ones that have these ingredients higher on the ingredient list

despite fear of silicones and sulfates, they are recommended by dermatologists and trichologists. the only ingredient you should avoid is formaldehyde. formaldehyde has different names, so avoid at all cost anything that says formaldehyde, methylene glycol, formalin, formic aldehyde, paraform, formol, formalin (methanol-free), FYDE, formalith, methanal, methyl aldehyde, methylene oxide, tetraoxymethalene, oxomethane, and oxymethylene. these are mainly found in special treatments and heat products, legally these can be called “formaldehyde free” if using it in a different form. (the ones listed above that are not verbatim “formaldehyde”)
