Try 2-in-1 Products

Save time, money and resources using 1 product.

There's a funny line in the movie "The Love Letter" with Kate Capshaw, Ellen DeGeneres and Tom Selleck where Tom Everett Scott (playing Johnny) makes a joke about being early because he saved time by not conditioning. His joke turns into a useful idea. Rinsing takes time and money (for both the product and water). When you're live is driven by a train schedule, cutting as many corners as possible in the morning are helpful.

I'm sure the hairstylists out there will try and argue with me on this one. Don't argue with me. Argue with the manufacturers to create more 2-in-1 products. I recently started using Aussie products and love them. They seem to work well and promote themselves as using natural, Earth-friendly ingredients. Pantene also makes a few 2-in-1 shampoo/conditioner combos.

If you really need extra conditioning beyond what a 2-in-1 can do, try a leave-in conditioner instead. At least you save on the rinsing time. Aussie has a nifty product that’s a 2-in-1 mouse and leave-in conditioner.

What is the Stupid Train Run?

Regular commuters will know it as we've all done it from time to time. Running late just enough that if you sprint, you'll catch that train, but wait... Those leather, hard-soled shoes are from cross-trainers. Suite pants are not suitable running attire either. Don't forget the briefcases and lunch bags waiting you down. So the result is this goofy looking run. Oh, and there are bunch of people watching you too. But like I said, it all happens to us at one time or another.
