Hair care~!

Well, I haven't made a post in a while, but I'm here once again with a new topic other than food! HOW I TREAT/CARE FOR MY HAIR! c: So, to start off, here are the products I use:
Ok, first note, I love the Nexxus products. They are the perfect price for amazing quality, and they make your hair so healthy and they actually improve hair growth.
1.So the first product labeled with the number 1 is my conditioner. I actually purchased the conditioner together with the Shampoo at Costco which is like a big warehouse where you can buy bigger stuff in bigger sizes and stuff. I think I got both of them for $12, which I think is great deal because both bottles come with a lot of product and it also comes with two extra little bottles to-go. The conditioner makes your hair super smooth and the consistency of the product is very silky and it feels great when you pull your fingers through your hair with this in your hand.
2.Next is the shampoo. This makes your scalp and hair feel extremely clean and it smells great.I love lathering this up in my hair and keeping it in my hair for about five minutes to really get that clean feel. When I wash it out, it feels super clean and I love it!
3.This is the heat protectant. I purchased this from Target, and it's a bit pricey, but definitely worth the price. This summer, I've been trying to use as less heat as possible cause I really wanna grow my hair out to be long and healthy. But this product is great for straightening, curling, and blow drying. It keeps your hair from being straw like and prevents split ends, which is good, cause we don't want any of that. It's also simple and dries up in your hair quickly so your hair won't fry when it feels the liquid due to the slow drying. This is by far the best heat protectant I've used, so I really recommend it especially if you want healthy, hair and being able to straighten it or curl it without your hair becoming fried.
Here is a recent picture of my hair. It's very healthy and happy ^~^
I hope this hair care post helped! I believe you'll be super satisfied with these products and your hair will be super happy!

Healthy munchings ^ ~ ^

Well, I'm entering this at 8:04 AM and I just had this thought, and i remembered that I had some yummy coconut water mango jamba juice downstairs. So I grabbed a bottle and got a banana and I realized how yummy it was and so I felt the need to blog about it, since I've been trying to be healthy for a while now. So, enjoy this healthy entry ><
First of all, I love Jamba Juice. Their tropical mango smoothies are the best. They are my motivation at yoga all the time. I always think of how I get to indulge myself into a nice, thick and cold mango smoothie after yoga, and I think that's what gets me going. Anyways, me and mom went to the store the other day cause Jamba Juice had closed, so we decided to make our smoothies, so we found this Jamba Juice beverage which was exactly the same juice, but just in pure liquid form. We added it in a smoothie, but you can even drink it by itself. You can also get this drink in Banana & Strawberry flavor.
The Tropical Mango juice contain 84% Real Mango Juice along with Coconut water. This is good because it hydrates. The Mango juice is rich in Antioxidant Vitamin C which can help fight certain diseases and keep your fruit diet balanced and can help your immune system. This drink is also fat free and has only 13g of sugar.
The coconut water in this drink has so many BENEFITS! Read this page to find out how good coconut water is good for your body.

And now ,the munchie of the meal. The banana. Bananas are full of rich nutrients. Bananas are a terrific, heart-healthy food and bananas are ideal for any diet or weight-loss program. They also provide an excellent source of vitamin B6 and waaaay more.
I hope you try out this healthy snack sometime, cause I think it tastes good, it makes you feel hydrated, and best of all, it helps your body to stay healthy~

The Truth: Unhealthy Food- Maruchan Ramen Noodles.

As much as I love Ramen noodles, they are bad for you. :c I know you love Ramen Noodles, but did you know that one pack of ramen has 830mg of salt? Well that's incorrect even though it says it on the package.
The American Heart Association recommends a consumption of no more than 1,500 mg of sodium per day. Ramen noodles contain more than this amount when the full package is consumed.
One way to lower the sodium is to lower the amount of flavoring you put into the noodles. Also, it's better to add vegetables or eggs in it. I usually like putting quail eggs and spam in mine.But Spam is unhealthy and not a good choice.(;´Д`)... I also eat it with rice. You can also add brocolli, and spinach or whatever suits your fancy.
Also, make sure to drink a lot of water so it drains all of that sodium out of your body. Having too much sodium in your body and not enough water can cause excretory system problems and that means you won't be able to pee anymore, and that can mess up your body due to all the waste build up in there. ew. So, don't eat too much ramen. Try eating ramen as less as possible. :x

More about me ^ ~ ^

Hello, I'm Nikki. That isn't my first name, but I'd prefer to be called Nikki. I like to think that I'm pretty and creative and unique. Sometimes I believe myself as those things, but sometimes I don't. I play the ukulele, I sing, I paint, and I like taking pictures, I like dressing nice. I would someday like to have a room full of vinyl records and CDs filled with good music. My music type varies, but picky at times.
My favorite type of music is ( mixed & no order. ): Arctic Monkeys, All time low, The Kooks, The Strokes, The Virgins, Vampire Weekend, Passion Pit, He is We, The Paper Kites, The Wombats, Drivepilot, Crystal Castles, Ron Pope, Uffie, Tom Rosenthal,Regina Spektor, The Postal Service, AWOLNATION, Lana Del Rey, The Naked and Famous, Florence + The Machine, Lights, Band of Horses, Lights, Big Bang, B2st, and much much more.
I like to be a different person. I want to be someone anonymous, yet mysterious but like cool. You know? Like, oh, she has cool style, or good taste in music. I like being original, and I know that seems really stupid, but I mean, it is true. I don't want to be that same type of stereotypical asian girl at my school. -__- I'm known for my love of ramen and my height. I'm a full 4'11. Lovely, right? Everyone in my school calls me Nicki Minaj or Rocky Balboa. lol.
I love the little things in life. I like feeling accomplished. I like feeling that I did something that made me happy and I took up the time to do it and really set towards it. Sounds cheesy, but it's true.
I love photography and the feeling of taking a good picture. I shoot with a Nikon Coolpix p500, and I got it for my birthday last year. My favorite thing about a picture? It is always going to stay the same, and it will never change even when the people in it do. I love how you can capture a moment and bring it back some other day and remember the memories that happened during that time, that moment, that day.
I wish to travel around the world one day. I mean everyone wants that, who doesn't? I really want to travel to Britain, Korea, Japan, etc. I want to take landscape photos of breath-taking shots and stills of adventures and stuff. If you have seen my main blog those are the types of places I wish to visit.
Anyways,enough rambling about my boring life, I hope you enjoyed reading my little annoying about me. There's more to me then there is here, so stay updated and read more about my life.

Welcome to my new blogspot!

Finally made a personal blog!
I have decided that this will be my new side blog. I will be including a bunch of different stuff here including outfit of the days, rants, etc.

I don't know if anyone will read this stuff, but if you are...
