A while back I wrote a post about things I no longer cared about - hair, make-up, bathing. It was pretty gross, but as a Mom on mat leave, I wasn't alone (and I felt in good company with all the comments that post received).
Now that I'm back at work, my time is even more limited. But now I'm out in public every day, and quite frankly, do not want to be the "stinky kid in the class" a la Big Daddy's Julian. So I shower - every day. And I put make-up on - every day. But one thing that still needs help is my hair.
I haven't gotten a cut in FIVE months. We have so little time, it seems, I resorted to giving Hannah bangs myself. (And I did a lot better of a job than my Mom ever did - and she'll say this to you too...I'm just thankful "feather" bangs are in.)
However, other than my roots, you'd never know I have been to a salon in almost half a year. And that's thanks to Vidal Sassoon's new Pro Series line, which debuted in stores last month, bringing salon genius to my home because I clearly can't get to a salon.

Some products include:
Vidal Sassoon Pro Series Moisture Lock Shampoo aids in conditioning the cuticle while hair is in its wet shampoo state to make styling after washing easier.

Vidal Sassoon Pro Series Moisture Lock Conditioner helps to seal in moisture and prevent dry or damaged-looking hair, leaving it noticeably smooth and irresistible to the touch.
Vidal Sassoon Pro Series Boost & Lift Foaming Air Mousse was created after learning that consumers want touchable volume that will last and won’t weigh hair down. It uses an exclusive foam technology that helps control unruly hair while providing up to 24 hours of flexible hold and volume that is easy to comb out.
Vidal Sassoon Pro Series Repair & Finish Spray helps seal in style and tame flyaways with Glycerin that significantly helps reduce friction and mechanical damage caused when combing or brushing hair.
Vidal Sasson The Mega Firm Hold Gel uses a professionally inspired formula offering a customizable and strong hold that helps lock out style-stealing frizz for up to 24 hours.
They all smell great and save my hair, but my favourite product is definitely the Repair & Finish Spray. Let's just say warm apartment air and cold winter days do a number on my mane when it comes to flyaways. This product helps my hair look healthy, and not like I am touching that Van de Graff static electricity generator at the Ontario Science Centre. (Although the highlight of my grade 5 year was touching said ball while holding hands with my crush. Thank goodness for my long hair and popular mushroom cuts that suited my crush!)
One YYZ Bambina reader will treat their luscious locks to salon genius from the new Vidal Sasson Pro Series with the five products outlined above and a coupon for a box of Vidal Sasson Hair Colour valued at $56 (approximately) total.
