More Sleep Brings More Under Eye Circles?

I work all week and I run just fine on 5-6 hours of sleep each night. I even run a few 20+ hour days and I still look presentable.

So why on those rare days where I get to catch up on some sleep and stay in bed for 10 or 12 hours, do I wake up and spend the day looking like I’ve gotten NO sleep for a week!!

Or maybe I’m just so tired the rest of the week that I don’t notice the bags? Hmmmmmm……

Later,
Debi

p.s. Have you ever run up against this phenomenon? I know not many people run well on 5 hours, so I’m curious as to how many hours most people have to sleep to feel refreshed. Please, feel free to let me know in the comments!

Coconut Oil as a Hair Care Product?
ByGenXBrat January 8, 2014December 26, 2015

My hair’s been really dry this year. Age is playing a factor I’m sure. But the newest drying agent, besides the dry winter air, is the chlorine from the pool.

I live in Arizona and the complex we live in has a pool right outside my door. Literally, I’m about 25 steps from the gate. And in the winter, it’s heated, so I’ve been going out to swim and relax.

Last night, I decided to test whether using coconut oil as a conditioner would work as great as all the stories I keep reading online. …

Henna Hair Dye – Lessons I Learned
ByGenXBrat January 15, 2016October 6, 2020

I wasn’t sure when it was that I first started looking into how to use henna hair dye, so I checked my email to see when I’d ordered it. It was July of last year.

I’ve spent hours and hours reading different websites so I could reduce the “turn my hair green” factor once I decided to dye my hair. Given how well it turned out, I’m glad I took the time.

If you’re new to using henna hair dye and considering giving it a try, I highly suggest you do the same thing… unless of course you don’t mind having green (or some other weird color) hair for a while!

My Henna Hair Dye Experiment – Let’s Get This Party Started!
ByGenXBrat January 11, 2016February 22, 2017

Well today’s the day. I just finished slathering my hair in pure Henna. It’s step one to covering the gray, and step one to becoming the redhead I’ve NEVER wanted to be!

It’s ok. I learned from all my research that using pure Henna as a first step will help a lot to cover the gray I hate so much.

Using Pure Coconut Oil & Brown Hair Dye to Color Gray Hair
ByGenXBrat January 31, 2014October 6, 2020

One thing I’ve learned recently is that as I get older (I promise I’ll deny that statement was every made by me if I’m asked), my gray hair isn’t the only issue to contend with. It’s also getting drier in general so it’s time to start watching how I condition my hair as well.

So in addition to looking to get rid of the grays, I’ve also gotta find a way to deep condition in the process and minimize the damage….

Lots of Supplements But a Few MUST Haves!
ByGenXBrat May 18, 2015July 7, 2017

I take quite a few supplements at this point in my life because I want to avoid many of the “as you get older” issues that so many people face. Will they work? I don’t know. But doing nothing doesn’t seem like much of an alternative so…

What I do know is that, while I do take a lot of supplements, there are certain ones that I take without fail, no matter how much of a hurry I’m in!

My Henna Hair Dye Experiment – 24 Hours Later
ByGenXBrat January 14, 2016February 22, 2017

Obviously we’re on a “let’s discuss my hair” week. It’s not something I planned, but this whole henna dye thing was something that I found scary as well as fascinating. So I figured I’d let you know (and document for my future attempts) what’s going on with it.

So why am I still talking about it 24 hours later? Because I’d read that, unlike chemical hair dyes, henna hair dyes take time to process… yep, it’s a bit strange to me too! But it’s true!
