Spring 2015 Hair: Hair cut + Hair color + Hair care

Some 10 days ago I decided to niceeeeely (more than 3 cm) cut the split ends, and to freshen the hair color that has become too bright and somewhat undefined. Last time I chose a very dark shade of chocolate that seemed a bit blackish, but this time I wanted something a bit lighter yet still darker than what I had. You still follow me, right?:)

Pre jedno 10-tak dana sam resila da finooooo (tj vise od 3cm) skratim rascvetale vrhove i da malo osvezim boju koja je postala previse svetla i nekako nedefinisana. Prosli put sam izabrala vrlo tamnu nijansu cokolade koja je pomalo vukla na crno, ali ovaj put sam htela nesto za nijansu svetlije ali opet tamnije od onoga sto sam imala. Jel' me i dalje pratite?:)

In the end I decided to choose something that is closest to my natural color, so my hairdresser mixed two colors, and I remember that one of them was called "cappuccino". As the color developed on my little head, it looked really light and I was a bit scared (would you please tell me if there is a phobia of "too bright shade of the hair color", so at least I know what I suffer from?!). A slight feeling of anxiety was following me until we washed off the color and began to dry the hair, and then that feeling was replaced with "analyzing" the result.

Na kraju sam odlucila da izaberem ono sto je najblize mojoj prirodnoj boji, te smo frizerka i ja pomesale dve boje, i secam se da je jedna nosila naziv "cappuccino". Dok se boja razvijala na mojoj glavici, izgledala je vrlo svetlo te sam se pomalo uplasila (hajde sad mi recite da li postoji fobija od "previse svetle nijanse kose", da makar znam od cega patim?!). Blagi osecaj anksioznosti me je pratio sve dok nismo isprali boju i poceli da susimo kosu, a onda je taj osecaj bio zamenjen "analiziranjem" rezultata.

The result was the color: a bit lighter than what I imagined, a little copperish-chocolate on top of the head but still darker than the color I had in the lower part (hats off to those who understand what I wanted to say, lol). Next day, on the natural light, it turned out that the color is actually perfect for spring, and my anxiety came to an end...:D 

Now let's move onto the basic hair care products that I'm currently using!

Rezultat je bila boja: svetlija za nijansu od onoga sto sam ja zelela, pomalo bakarno-cokoladna na vrhu glave ali ipak tamnija od boje koju sam imala na donjem delu (ko razume sta sam htela da kazem svaka mu cast, haha). Sledeci dan, na prirodnoj svetlosti, se ispostavilo da je boja zapravo savrsena za prolece, i mojoj anksioznosti je dosao kraj...:D

Hajde sada da pricamo o bazicnim proizvodima za negu kose koje trenutno koristim!

Aussie "Frizz Miracle shampoo"

For a long time I had the desire to try some product from the Australian brand Aussie, due to the many positive comments that I read and heard on the Internet. Given that I needed a shampoo I decided to go for "Frizz Miracle" which is intended for "electrified" hair, or better to say flyaway and frizzy hair (for example the hair that is frizzy after wearing the hats, woolen stuff, after the use of certain brushes...).

It contains extract of Australian "blue gum" tree, which is loosely translated one kind of eucalyptus that grows in Australia. For the extract of this tree is believed to have a calming/soothing effect, and when it comes to hair it means: controlling and soothing the undesirable frizz.

But to be honest I'm not overly happy with this shampoo, because it seems to me that my hair scalp gets oily faster than usual while the rest of the hair is dry (and it has nothing to do with the conditioners because I changed two of them, and again I'm getting the same result). Of course that does not mean I won't try another products from Aussie, but I think the next time I will opt for a conditioner or hair mask.

Duze vreme sam imala zelju da probam neki proizvod australijskog brenda Aussie, zbog brojnih pozitivnih komentara koji kruze internetom. S obzirom da mi je bio potreban sampon odlucila sam se za "Frizz Miracle" koji je namenjen "naelektrisanoj" kosi, tj kosi koja "leti" (tako se ponasa kosa nakon nosenja kapa, vunenih stvari, nakon koriscenja odredjenih cetki...).

Sadrzi ekstrakt liski tzv. australijskog "blue gum" drveta, sto je u slobodnom prevodu jedna vrsta eukaliptusa koja raste u Australiji. Za ekstrakt ovog drveta se veruje da poseduje umirujuca dejstva, i kada je kosa u pitanju to znaci da kontrolise i smiruje nepozeljnu kovrdzavost i naelektrisanost.

Elem iskrena da budem ja nisam preterano zadovoljna ovim samponom, jer mi se cini da mi se koren kose brze masti nego obicno dok je ostatak kose suv (i ne nema veze sa balzamom jer sam ih promenila, i opet je isto dejstvo). Naravno to ne znaci da necu probati druge proizvode Aussie brenda, ali mislim da cu se sledeci put odluciti za balzam ili masku za kosu.

Le Petit Marseillais "Conditioner with almond milk & linseed"

This conditioner is one of the latest products of the brand called Le Petit Marseillais, and is primarily intended for the strengthening of long hair. The main ingredients are sweet almond's milk and flax seed, which together contribute to the reparation of the hair, while giving it a healthy glow at the same time.

What I like about this conditioner is that it has a creamy texture with the smell of almonds, and relatively quick effect- it takes only 1 minute to full effect (most of conditioners need 3-4min).

Ovaj balzam je jedan od novijih proizvoda brenda Le Petit Marseillais, i namenjen je prvenstveno jacanju duge kose. Glavni sastojci su mleko slatkog badema i seme lana, koji zajedno doprinose reparaciji kose ujedno joj dajuci zdrav sjaj.

Ono sto se meni dopada kod ovog balzama je kremasta tekstura sa mirisom badema, i relativno brzo dejstvo- potrebno je svega 1 minut za puno dejstvo (vecini balzama je potrebno 3-4min).
