The greatest thing ever made

Hello chickadees!

The story of the greatest thing ever made is a tale wrought with highs and lows, sorrow and triumph. It begins with elation, crashes into depression, and arises somewhere in the middle. This is the story of my hair.


I have been on the hunt for years for the PERFECT hair care product at the drugstore. I have naturally curly hair, but without assistance it turns into a frizzy mess. Because my hair is so fine, all of the mousses, gels, and hairsprays I'd tried over the years made it crunchy and heavy. I had never found that happy medium of curly and light without tipping into crunchy and laden with product.


Then, in the last semester of my senior year, I decided to try a product that was not marketed for curls. It was part of Fx's Moroccan Moisture line. I first tried the Miracle Cream, but found the application too uneven. I then discovered at Walgreens a spray version, the Argan Oil Miracle Spray.




OH. MY. GOSH. This stuff is truly the greatest thing ever made. The even and light spray application leaves my curls defined and natural looking without being frizzy. I also believe it would be great for people with wavy or straight hair as well, because my hair feels soft and nourished. And for $5.99 at Walgreens, all the stars were aligned for me to have wonderful hair forever.


THEN DISASTER STRUCK. I went to pick up a new bottle at my normal Walgreens, and it wasn't there. The miracle cream was available, but not the spray. Thinking they were perhaps out of stock, I went to a different Walgreens. No luck. When I got home I looked at the Walgreens website, and was aghast to discover that not only was it not available online, but it was no longer being stocked at any Walgreens in my area.


So that brings me to today, the middle ground. I discovered two websites that carry this product. Links are 
http://www.vitacost.com/fx-moroccan-moisture-argan-oil-miracle-spray and http://www.soap.com/p/fx-moroccan-moisture-miracle-spray-292319. With shipping costs an individual bottle now costs around $10.00. To me, this product is worth the extra cost. I buy three bottles at a time so I can save on shipping, and each bottle comes out to around $7.75. For the greatest thing ever made, an extra $3 is allowing my hair to continue looking amazing.

Ciao!
