Lack of fans...

Alright, remember the days when the average blog would get 10ish comments? And now the average is .5 (I know who that one every other time is too.) So I've decided to do something for that person....3 handy secrets that make me happy. First secret is a photography trick...if you're a photographer (which about 75% of you already are) ignore. But for my friends that aren't...here'a tip. DON"T USE YOUR FLASH! Get your subject near a big well lit window if you're inside, and if you're outside, under semi shade that gets good light on their face...but not direct light....unless it's cloudy, then put your subject just about wherever you want...just watch for shadows under their eyes. This guy was shot about 2' from some huge windows, on the floor, with a couple of pillows under him.Now onto my next secret. I don't like sharing this one, but since I don't have but a reader or two, I'm going to....... http://myfrugaladventures.com She's great! She has amazing deals updated every hour or so. It's how I got so much for my kid's for Christmas. (and so much toliet paper and wet wipes for so cheap). Kam's glow in the dark crayola station....usually $40...sometimes on sale for $30...I bought it for $15! And other great sales. The reason I don't like to share is because a lot of the things she posts are limited quantity. Like last week I was one of the first 20,000 aveda facebook fans to get their 3 pack of their new smoothing stuff. I can't wait. I've never been able to afford aveda!

Ok, onto other things I can't afford. My friend (who's also full of awesome secrets) just told me about Brazillian Keratin. From what I've read and seen, it's amazing! I'm hoping to order it next month. It is for your hair and it works WONDERS!!!!!!! Both to make your hair healthy and to make it shiny. Check it out

Ah, and there you have it one reader. You're welcome!
Merry day after Christmas (most depressing day of the year!)

I know I'm awful about commenting, but I read your blog on google reader and lets be honest, I'm too lazy to click over and leave a message! Believe me you have way more than 1 fan, I promise:)

Actually the most depressing day of the year is my birthday -- January 22nd. That's when everyone get's their credit card bills for the month of December. Seriously.

So i was just looking at this stuff again - are you talking about the brazilian blowout you get at the salon or are you talking about the shampoo and conditioner. I know the blow out cost like 300 to 500 dollars. Let me know!
