My absence and a little bit of Lush!!!

Hey ladies!!! First let me apologize for my absence last week. I realized last night I never informed you I wouldn't be blogging last week nor did I give you a reason. As most of you know I am a graduate student working on my Ph.D., last week my boss sent me to a conference in Niagara Falls, Canada so it was definitely a little difficult to blog being gone, as I had to limit the items I brought with me and etc. No need to fear though, I'm back and will be back to my normal blogging schedule starting NOW!

Anyway, If you all read my recent Lush haul (if you need a referesher click here) I purchased the Protect and Nourish Head Case kit.  I realized I blogged that I purchased it, but have yet to review a single product in it! Well today, I am going to blog to you about the amazingness of the Curly Wurly Shampoo that was including in the kit.

According to Lush:

Curly Wurly makes thick, unruly curls behave. It's packed full of nutritious creamed coconut and coconut oil, moisturizing vanilla, softening eggs and avocado butter to give moisture back to hair and eliminate frizz.

In my personal opinion this product description is DEAD on.  I absolutely love this shampoo. I wish there was a little more fragrance to the product, but how amazing my hair feels after using it makes up for the lack of overwhelming fragrance.  When I first used this I was very taken back by the texture of the product...

You can kind of tell by looking at it, it's almost kind of sticky/goopy and there are some large chunks in it.  It actually kind of reminds me of the body scrubs from The Body Shop.  At first I was like you want me to put this in my hair? I finally sucked it up and did and man am I glad I did!!! The container is around 3 oz of product and I believe I had already used it about 8 times and this is how much is still left. It doesn't take much to get your hair clean.  The size that is available online is 7.8oz and is $23.95.  I will without a doubt be purchasing this after my current container is empty!

Have you ladies ever tried this shampoo? What did you think?

Also, I will leave you with a few pictures from my trip last week :)

This is a picture of the falls.  The boat in the middle of the pictures is the Maid of the Mist. It's a tourist attraction that drives you around the falls and under them.  What you see in the background is actually New York, as I am standing on the Canadian side of the falls.

this picture was actually taken from an observation deck on the Journey Behind the Falls attraction.  I am actually standing on a deck that is underneath the falls. You can actually see the waterfall in this one. This was probably my favorite site to see. You could hear the waterfall literally roaring and it was truly beautiful to be able to watch the falls from behind the "scenes"!

Have you ladies ever been to Niagara Falls?
