My Boyfriend Thought Washing His Hair With Irish Spring Was A Thing Until He Brought This Shampoo Home
I dunno what’s up with my boyfriend but he had a beautification day yesterday. I told him in the morning, “Listen, can you do me a favor and bring the dog to the groomer to get her nails clipped?” And he was like, “Oh yeah totally!”
A few hours later he texted me a pic of the dog with glittery pink nail polish. I mean, he did get her nails clipped but he also had them paint her nails. I don’t hate it but I also, don’t know what came over him that he was all, “Oh yeah, why don’t you paint the dog’s toe nails too while you’re at it?”
Now, he also happens to be Mr Universe. He eats well and he runs about 10,000 miles a day. We have a perfectly great pair of treadmills but even if it’s pouring rain or a blizzard out he’ll do his damn best to get outside at stupid o’ clock to run. I wave at him from the door as he leaves to run while munching on an English Muffin dripping with melted butter haha…! This also translates as he showers twice a day. Once after his workout and once at night. His idea of clean though is a bar of Irish Spring soap. He uses it to wash his hair, his body, his face…hell, I would place bets he’d use it to clean his teeth too if it tasted as good as it smelled.
But something odd happened yesterday…..!
We went to dinner last night and when we got home he was all, “I’m gonna take a shower and we’ll watch TV in bed after!” And I was like yeah, sounds good! So, away he went….
He got back and he smelled like coffee. And I was like hmmm, what’s that about? But we settled in and started catching up on Lisey’s Story and I forgot about it. This morning I got up, worked out, and hit the shower after him and the scent of a mocha with coconut was filling the air of the bathroom. Odd but lovely!
Turns out he purchased a bottle of OGX Anti-Hair Fall Coconut Caffeine Strengthening Shampoo and Conditioner. I mean, I dunno how to feel right now. I almost have a proud mama thing going on. He not only purchased shampoo for himself but also, conditioner and it smells like a mocha with coconut creamer. I LOVE THIS MAN! Although, I was concerned about the Anti-Hair Fall….so, of course, I had to tease him and told him, “Hmm lean down let me see your hair! Oh everything looks ok!!!!” And he was all, “WHAT? Why?” And I told him he purchased a shampoo and conditioner for hair loss. He was horrified and his reply was, “But it smelled really good!”
I had to explain to him it was ok and that I totally purchased hair products “Just because they smelled good”. Like that time I purchased Tea Tree Oil Shampoo and Conditioner full well knowing I don’t have oily hair but my excuse was it smelled delightfully peppermint-y!
And he’s isn’t wrong….it smells delightful. And the scent lingers quite strongly in my hair and even in the air! It’s really a fun little mocha coffee with coconut notes scent! It made me buy the OGX Smoothing + Coconut Coffee Exfoliating Body Scrub and Smoothing and Coconut Coffee Body Cream from Target today in the hopes they both smell as great as the shampoo and conditioner.
So yeah, neither one of us is having hair loss issues but I’m not minding a coffee scented shampoo and conditioner! Can’t hurt right?
I say try it! It’s rather nice having Starbuck scented hair.
