To know the true significance of what was at stake, one must understand that our American Revolution was in reality a revolt against the Governance Doctrine of the Divine Right of Kings. Pursuant to the Divine Right of Kings, the King is a God or an emissary of God here on earth. Therefore, no earthly-being can question the decisions of the King. Under the Divine Right of Kings, persons had no rights; there were only permissions and privileges that could be revoked by the King or his representatives at any time for any reason. And truth was established by the King and the Church.
During the Enlightenment (circa 1650AD-1800AD) there was a scientific, intellectual and culture revolution of thought. Average persons came to question the authority of the King and the Church. Using their own observations and reasoning, individuals began determining truth for themselves. During this time, Men of Letters such as John Locke, developed a body of thought that came to be known as Natural Law. Amongst other things, Natural Law prescribed that all men had certain unalienable Natural Law Rights. (In fact, Natural Law was so well known and understood at the time that the Founder's debated whether the Bill of Rights was even necessary) Locke continued this line of reasoning and developed the Governance Doctrine known as "Consent of the Governed". In essence, government could only rule with the consent of the governed. And, in fact, that exact phrase appears in the American Declaration of Independence, as well as does the "Laws of Nature". [ If you want a little more detail you can read Natural Law: How WE THE PEOPLE got to the 4th of July,1776 2/2 http://goo.gl/If3Pxk and/or listen to free audio book 2 Treatises of Civil Government by John Locke https://t.co/qDCsduYZ3w]
What follows are a few statements summarizing some of the sentiments and principles of Natural Law and Consent of the Governed. These statements were part and parcel of the belief system of our Founders. This writer hopes these statements will make more clear the vision our Founders had for this country and its individual citizens.
- Using their own observations and reasons, the individual determines truth for themselves;
- Self-Determination – Each individual shall determine the course of their lives for themselves, while at the same time accepting the rewards and consequences for their own decisions;
- All persons are created equal;
- "Man... hath by nature a power.... to preserve his property - that is, his life, liberty, and estate - against the injuries and attempts of other men." John Locke;
- "Liberty is to be free from restraint and violence from others" John Locke;
- "To understand political power right, and derive it from its original, we must consider, what state all men are naturally in, and that is, a state of perfect freedom to order their actions, and dispose of their possessions and persons, as they think fit, within the bounds of the law of nature, without asking leave, or depending upon the will of any other man." Locke, John. The Second Treatise of Civil Government. 1690;
- "every man being, as has been shewed[should], naturally free, and nothing being able to put him into subjection to any earthly power, but only his own consent" John Locke Two Treatises of Government #119;
- MEN being, as has been said, by nature, all free, equal, and independent, no one can be put out of this estate, and subjected to the political power of another, without his own consent. The only way whereby any one divests himself of his natural liberty, and puts on the bonds of civil society, is by agreeing with other men to join and unite into a community for their comfortable, safe, and peaceable living one amongst another, in a secure enjoyment of their properties, and a greater security against any, that are not of it. This any number of men may do, because it injures not the freedom of the rest; they are left as they were in the liberty of the state of nature. When any number of men have so consented to make one community or government, they are thereby presently incorporated, and make one body politic, wherein the majority have a right to act and conclude the rest. Locke, Section 95;
- "But though men when they enter into society, give up the equality, liberty and executive power they had in the state of nature, into the hands of the society, to be so far disposed of by the legislature, as the good of the society shall require; yet it being only with an intention to everyone the better to preserve himself his liberty and property" (Second Treatise, Chapter 9);
- Men, having been given free will, are not virtuous by nature and, acknowledging their imperfections, create governments so that they may live in safety and harmony together - Cato Letters 59&60;
- "Freedom of men under government is to have a standing rule to live by, common to every one of that society, and made by the legislative power vested in it; a liberty to follow my own will in all things, when the rule prescribes not, and not to be subject to the inconstant, unknown, arbitrary will of another man." John Locke;
- "The rulers ... exercising a power the people never put into their hands (who can never be supposed to consent, that anybody should rule over them for their harm), do that, which they have not a right to do. And where the body of the people, or any single man, is deprived of their right, or is under the exercise of a power without right, then they have a liberty to appeal to heaven, whenever they judge the cause of sufficient moment". John Locke, Second Treatise of Government Chapter 14 (Consent of the Governed);
- "Government being for the preservation of every man's right and property, by preserving him from the violence or injury of others, is for the good of the governed".John Locke, First Treatise on Government Chapter 9, (Consent of the Governed);
- "But if a long train of abuses, prevarications and artifices, all tending the same way, make the design visible to the people, and they cannot but feel, what they lie under, and whither they are going, 'tis not to be wondered, that they should then rouse themselves, and endeavour to put the rule into such hands, which may secure to them the ends for which government was at first enacted". (Second Treatise, Chapter 19);
- "Whenever the power that is put in any hands for the government of the people, and the protection of our properties, is applied to other ends, and made use of to impoverish, harass or subdue them to the arbitrary and irregular commands of those that have it; there it presently becomes tyranny, whether those that thus use it are one or many". (Second Treatise, Chapter 18);
- "(Tyranny is) ... when the governor, however entitled, makes not the law, but his will, the rule; and his commands and actions are not directed to the preservation of the properties of his people, but the satisfaction of his own ambition, revenge, covetousness, or any other irregular passion". (Second Treatise, Chapter 18);
- "He" (the supreme executive) "also acts contrary to his trust, when he either employs the force, treasure and offices of the society, to corrupt the representatives, and gain them to his purposes; or openly pre-engages the electors, and prescribes to their choice, such, whom he has by solicitations, threats, promises, or otherwise won them to his designs, and employs them to bring in such, who have promised beforehand, what to vote, and what to enact". (Second Treatise, Chapter 19);
- #Tyranny is the exercise of power beyond right, which nobody can have a right to John #Locke 2nd Treatise on Government Chapter18.
Further, Dear Government, everything you have been doing lately seems to be in diametric opposition to the intent and promises of our revolutionary government. Our current government seems intent on restoring the governance Doctrine of the Divine Right of Kings. Excepting , of course, that instead of a King whose decisions cannot be questioned because they allege their divinity, it is the decisions of Progressive Educated Elites whose decisions cannot be questioned because they allege their superior intellect and education as well as unquestionable altruism.
"A free people [claim] their rights as derived from the laws of nature, and not as the gift of their chief magistrate." Thomas JeffersonIn the Spirit of this Holiday Season, this writer will break this tense, awkward familial moment with the following segue.
"WE THE PEOPLE pray that our President, Congress and Courts and other elected officials provide WE THE PEOPLE with the peaceful remedy of restoring our Constitution, Bill of Rights and Natural Law before WE THE PEOPLE are forced to withdraw our Consent to be Governed."
Should our elected officials be unsure of where to begin in restoring Natural Law and the Natural Rights of WE THE PEOPLE, this writer has provided this list as a starting point. With vision of our Country's Founders as its template, this writer sets forward this more detailed Christmas 2013 wish list to our government.
- Please restore to WE THE PEOPLE a government whose foundation is built with integrity;
- Please abide by Natural Law, the Constitution and Bill of Rights as they were written. The Constitution and Bill of Rights were written to be anchors against the erosion of Liberty and expansion of tyranny. You have used the false premise of a living Constitution to wrongly justify your expansion of power and reduction of the Liberty of WE THE PEOPLE;
- Please restore to WE THE PEOPLE our inalienable right to determine Truth for ourselves using our own observations and reasoning;
- Please restore to WE THE PEOPLE our inalienable right to Self-Determination;
- Please make the teaching of Natural Law and the Governance Doctrine of Consent of the Governed required subject matter, from First Grade (age appropriate of course) and never let them fall into obscurity again;
- Please stop thinking you and/or other Educated Elites are better than.....
Merry Christmas fellow Americans.
Those were my thoughts.
In Closing:
Thank you, my fellow citizens, for taking your valuable time to read and reflect upon what is written here.
If what is written here rings true to you, perhaps you should contact your local elected officials and let them know. If you are afraid of repercussions, snail mail it anonymously and ask them to respond in the local paper or their own monthly/quarterly internet newsletter. Even if this article refers to something outside you geographic area, it still likely applies to your location. Remember all those taxpayer training junkets we taxpayers send the bureaucrats on? They all learn the same "livestock management" techniques to use on WE THE PEOPLE.
And that leaves WE THE PEOPLE with this conundrum: While our #Government works full time with compensation and funded with our money for the cause of #Tyranny; WE THE PEOPLE are forced to work part time without compensation for the cause of #liberty with what is left over of our time, money and energy.
Finally, this article is written with the same intentions as Thomas Paine http://ushistory.org/paine. I seek no leadership role. I seek only to help the American People find their own way using their own "Common Sense" http://amzn.to/kbRuar

"We were a little surprised that he fell to us," Diamondbacks scouting director Mike Rizzo said just after making the selection. "Obviously, we understand that there are reasons that that happened. He's a talented player at a premium position and we felt that he was the best player available at the time we selected."
Drew, the brother of Braves outfielder J.D. Drew, batted .353 with 17 homers and 55 RBIs in 55 games for the Seminoles this season. Drew's other brother, Tim, plays outfield for Triple-A Richmond in the Braves system.
"I'm excited that the Arizona Diamondbacks thought enough of me to take me in the first round," Drew told the Florida State Sports Information Department. "They are a great organization and I look forward to being a part of it."
A left-handed hitter, Drew uses an open stance at the plate and has a short, compact hitting stroke. A good baserunner, Drew stole 12 bases in 14 attempts. He also has a good eye at the plate, drawing 45 walks as opposed to 42 strikeouts.
"They are very similar," Rizzo said of Stephen and J.D. "They're the same body type, (they're both) left-handed bats, they both have good power, they both run well, they're both very instinctual players both on the bases and in the field. The difference for us is that Stephen plays a premium position at shortstop."
Rated by many as the best position player in the draft, Drew was named the Most Valuable Player of the NCAA's Tallahassee Regional this past weekend. He hit .353 in the four games to help the Seminoles gain a Super Regional berth.
"I'm not disappointed at all," Drew said about falling to pick No. 15. "You never know what's going to happen once the draft starts. I'm going to get a chance to play the game I love, hopefully for a long time. To get drafted in the first round is an honor."
Drew's agent is Scott Boras, who also represented J.D., who was drafted by the Phillies in 1997, but refused to sign and was then selected the following year by the Cardinals. Boras is known for his tough negotiating, but that didn't deter the Diamondbacks.
General manager Joe Garagiola Jr. is no stranger to negotiating with Boras. Pitcher Casey Daigle and infielder Carlos Baerga are Boras clients as was former infielder Jay Bell.
"I don't think we have any illusions about this," Garagiola said. "We've dealt with Scott Boras in the past. We've done business and I expect we will do it again. When a player of Stephen Drew's capabilities is there, you can't walk past him. We'll just have to get into the negotiations, but that's for another day."
The Diamondbacks had talked about drafting a left-handed pitcher in the first round, but when Drew was available, they grabbed him.
"Those kind of players don't come along every day," Rizzo said. "He's got solid tools. He's a great player and we felt it would be hard to pass him up."
What level Drew starts out at in the Arizona system will depend on how long Florida State stays alive in the postseason, as well as how long the negotiations take to wrap up.
"This is somebody who potentially will be a quick player to the big leagues," Garagiola said. "And in this day and age that's a good thing."

— Before tossing that brick through the TV or cursing your least favorite Philadelphia Eagle defender for being an unable or unwilling tackler, consider that attitude, talent and technique are not the only components that go into bringing a ballcarrier down.
In many cases, even the most talented defenders can be made to look inept by improper positioning or pre-snap confusion that leads to tentative movement and uncertainty in the play that unfolds.
This is what's happening too often with the Eagles, whose struggles to get takeaways also are the result of a defense that reacts more than it attacks.
Sunday, these shortcomings were on display on some select big plays the Dallas Cowboys pulled off on the way to a 38-23 victory.
On the Cowboys' first touchdown, a swing pass to running back Felix Jones that went for 11 yards, safety Nate Allen, who was in charge of picking up Jones coming out of the backfield, appeared to be too deep at the snap and then moved laterally before moving toward the line of scrimmage and ended up whiffing from the outside, the first of three missed tackles that allowed Jones to make it to the end zone.
Later, when Tony Romo hit Dez Bryant with a 49-yard pass down the right sideline to set up a go-ahead field goal, cornerback Dominique Rodgers-Cromartie, perhaps thinking he wouldn't have deep help on that play, allowed Bryant to get outside, making it even tougher for the late-arriving Kurt Coleman (coming from the middle of the field) to break it up.
Rodgers-Cromartie is as good at using outside leverage as maybe anyone I've ever seen, and he used it later on what turned out to be a sensational catch by Bryant for a 30-yard touchdown. Rodgers-Cromartie was flagged for questionable pass interference on the play, which he didn't prevent anyway. But the point is that it took the kind of perfect pass from a long distance that Romo might only be capable of executing once or twice a season to make it happen.
These are just a few of countless examples where Eagles defenders might have been able to make (or prevent) game-changing plays if they had been better positioned or coordinated or maybe even ridden harder by a position coach with the salty dog mentality of, say defensive line czar Jim Washburn.
But his unit is just as guilty.
The previous week, on one big gainer around the right side by the New Orleans Saints, defensive end Brandon Graham's inside move at the snap created the opening in the first place.
Now, maybe he was doing what he was told. But if so, someone else wasn't, because that whole area of the field was abandoned by the defense immediately after the ball was snapped.
Don't get the wrong idea. Most times when players miss tackles or blow coverages, it's on them, not their coaches. It's no different with the Eagles this year.
But they haven't been helped schematically or with the play calls by coordinators Juan Castillo (through Oct. 14) and Todd Bowles (the last three games) either.
Their performance against the Cowboys on Sunday was their best in more than a month, yet still not good enough.
This defense has played with too low an IQ to succeed consistently. That ultimately falls on the coaches, whether it's their fault or not.
One thing is for sure: No way these players are as bad as they've looked, and too often — more than with contending teams — they are outfoxed by opponents who always seem to be one step ahead.
Throughout the first half of the season, when opponents would keep seven players in to block four pass rushers, the Eagles' seven other defenders who were left to cover just three receivers not only failed to break up passes but failed to get them down quickly enough after catches.
The reason is that the Eagles too often play a perplexed, confused brand of defense in which their tremendous athletes are turned into pursuers hamstrung by unfair head starts. This was not part of the plan when longtime coordinator Jim Johnson died.
Reid has appointed three defensive coordinators since, each worse than the one before.
Now he's faced with the prospect of a locker room that's about a minute away from losing all faith in the system.
Reid, after a desultory Monday night loss to the Saints on Nov. 5, coldly stared down questions about whether his players had quit and insisted there was no way that was the case.
He was correct. It just looked that way because they were so often not quite in the right positions to make the necessary plays, making it appear they didn't care as much as they should.
"The things I saw — I saw guys playing hard," he said. "We've got to make plays. If guys are in position to make plays, then you have to make the plays. Coaches have to put themselves in a position to make plays."
Reid knows it is the coaches who have failed the most on this team. They have failed the players, and the players, in turn, have failed them.

A Tale of Two Storms: Comparing Bush and Obama's Hurricane Response
How President Obama's handling of Superstorm Sandy compares to Bush's mishandling of Hurricane Katrina.
The contrast couldn't be much greater: two killer storms, two commanders in chief, two very different responses. President Obama has done well in managing the crisis caused by Hurricane Sandy so far, while President George W. Bush botched the job of handling Hurricane Katrina in 2005.
[Ken Walsh: Hurricane Sandy May Disrupt Presidential Election]
Obama and his Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) have even drawn praise from Republicans such as Govs. Chris Christie of New Jersey and Bob McDonnell of Virginia, both prominent supporters of Republican presidential challenger Mitt Romney. Christie said, "The president has been all over this and he deserves great credit." McDonnell said the federal response was "incredibly fast and we're very grateful." He said Obama has been "direct and personal" in handing the crisis.
Obama got ahead of the curve from the start, cancelling campaign trips in order to stay in Washington to supervise the relief effort. He made sure the public knew he was in command by speaking to the nation directly as the storm intensified, and he and many surrogates have given frequent public updates about what was going on.
On Wednesday, Obama is scheduled to tour storm-damaged areas in New Jersey with Christie.

In contrast, President George W. Bush and his administration seemed slow off the mark in their response to Hurricane Katrina in 2005. The powerful storm hit the Gulf Coast and New Orleans while Bush was on vacation at his Texas ranch, and his aides initially didn't keep him fully informed about the devastation and misery Katrina was causing.
By the time he found out--in a report by a senior aide--he already looked out of touch. He belatedly cut short his vacation, and the White House released a photograph of the president looking out a window of Air Force One at the devastation below, which only made Bush appear more distant from the calamity.
Later, Bush did visit a disaster-relief site and praised Michael Brown, his FEMA director, with the memorable sentence, "Brownie, you're doing a heckuva job." The people of New Orleans, who had been waiting desperately for aid, had a different, and far more negative view. Brown resigned shortly thereafter.
The Bush administration also tangled with then-Louisiana Gov. Kathleeen Blanco over who was responsible for the debacle of failing to evacuate people or deliver relief supplies in a timely way--in stark contrast to Obama's good relationship today with New Jersey's Governor Christie and Virginia's McDonnell.

Aides admitted to me later that Bush never recovered his reputation as an effective crisis manager or a man of empathy after Katrina.
Plenty of things can still go wrong in the federal response to Sandy, but Obama plans to remain front and center in the relief efforts as Election Day appoaches. "The storm is not over yet," Obama said Tuesday afternoon on a visit to Red Cross headquarters in Washington. "We're going to continue to push as hard as we can" to help out.

Faulkner Snags 100th Victory in Defeat of Pacers
– The North Georgia men's basketball team continued to
roll on Monday evening, winning their fourth straight conference
game as the Saints placed five players in double figures to take
down USC Aiken 81-76 in Memorial Hall in Peach Belt Conference
With the win, head coach Chris Faulkner picked up his 100th victory at the helm of the Saints. Currently in his seventh season, Faulkner is looking to lead his squad to his second 20-win season.
The Saints win their fourth straight game, improving to 9-6 overall and 4-1 in the Peach Belt Conference, while the Pacers fall to 9-6 on the season and an even 4-4 in league action.
North Georgia jumped out to a quick start in the early going, using a pair of jumpers from Kindall Butler that led to a 12-5 advantage at the 14:59 mark. USC Aiken would respond over the next four minutes however, knotting the score at 15-15 with 12 minutes remaining in the first half.
The Saints would explode and use a pair of dunks over the next five minutes to spark a 13-1 run as a Reed buck layup gave North Georgia a 12-point lead at 28-16 with 7:00 minutes remaining in the first half.
USC Aiken would respond with four straight points after the Saints' run, but North Georgia would have answer of their own as the Pacers never pulled closer than six points down the stretch as the Saints took a 39-33 advantage into intermission.
North Georgia caught fire to open the second half, scoring seven straight points as Andrew Bennett slammed home a bucket in the lane, followed by a running layup from Michael Moynihan, and Carl Taylor drained a three-pointer to cap the 7-0 run to open the half, giving the Saints a 46-33 advantage.
The Saints continued to extend their lead, pushing the advantage to a game-high 18 points on a Pat Moynihan three-pointer at the 15:01 mark, giving North Georgia a 54-36 lead.
USC Aiken would mount a comeback, using a barrage of three-pointers at the midway through the second half to cut the North Georgia lead to single digits at 60-53 before creeping even closer to within a basket at 71-68 with just 3:28 remaining.
With under a minute to go, a North Georgia jumper was off the mark, giving USC Aiken the ball down by a point, but Carl Taylor picked off a cross court pass and went the distance for the layup and a foul, completing the three-point play the old fashioned way and giving the Saints a four-point lead at 77-73 with 35 seconds remaining.
Both teams traded baskets over the final seconds as the Saints escaped with an 81-76 victory, North Georgia's fourth straight PBC win.
Carl Taylor led five players in double figures, putting up 18 points, while Michael Moynihan scored 16, Bernard Rimmer 13, Bennett 11, and Pat Moynihan 10. Bennett also recorded the game's only double-double with 10 rebounds.
Casey McMasters scored a team-high 18 points for the Pacers, knocking down five three-pointers and going 6-10 from the field, while Mark Brown tallied 15 and Rashad Flowers added 12.
North Georgia returns to action on Wednesday evening, hosting long time rival Georgia Southwestern in Memorial Hall with tip-off slated for 7:30 p.m. in front of an already sold out crowd of more than 2,500.

The Carnabingo game urges people to use their smartphones and Twitter to play
Thursday, June 14, 2012
Rather than relying on nostalgia from being a focal point of the swinging 60s, businesses in Carnaby in London are using modern methods to draw crowds to the area.
To celebrate the range of food and drink on offer, a new game called Carnabingo has been launched.
Throughout June people are being invited to pick up a Carnabingo card in one of the 16 participating bars, restaurants and cafés, or download a copy at carnaby.co.uk
Then they need to order one of the dishes or drinks featured on the card, ranging from pie and mash to a glass of wine, and take a snap on their smartphone.
Participants tweet each picture to @CarnabyLondon using the hashtag #carnabingo and once they have tweeted four venues in a row from the card, using the additional hashtag #4inarow they win a prize, which include a £50 goodie bag, lunch for two or a coffee school lesson.
On completing the full card, and suing the extra hashtag #fullhouse, people are entered into a prize draw to win a luxury prize including a night in the Soho Sanctum Hotel and dinner for two.

text: John Otte Cattle Futures Plunge On Cargill Announcement Company cites dwindling cattle supplies for triggering plans to shutter its Plainview, Texas, beef processing plant Feb. 1 Published on: Jan 17, 2013 Cattle futures plummeted limit down as news of Cargill's Feb. 1 closure of its Plainview, Texas, plant filtered into the market. Prices began recovering before the close of pit trading. Recovery continued in electronic trade later. Fed cattle prices plunged as traders worried that competition to buy fed cattle will diminish. Feeder-cattle futures also skidded to their limit lows. Lower returns from fed cattle mean feedlots cannot afford to bid husky prices for feeder cattle. Feeder cattle also began recovering after the initial plunge lower. Potential impact on cattle flow and prices The United States has excess beef feedlot capacity and excess beef slaughtering capacity. Packing plants operate more efficiently and lose less money as long as beef brings a high enough price to pay the variable costs of the plant and leave some dollars to apply to fixed costs. Beef packers have been competing aggressively to buy cattle to capture those efficiencies. Therefore they have all (according to margin estimates that we have available) been losing money. The industry has been anticipating that one of the major packers would eventually close its least efficient plant.Company cites dwindling cattle supplies for triggering plans to shutter its Plainview, Texas, beef processing plant Feb. 1 Cargill idling the Texas plant means competition among remaining plants will diminish. Packers will try to drive fed cattle prices lower so as to attempt to improve their margins. That's what hammered Thursday's futures. Beef feedlots in the vicinity of the shut down plant will see their cash fed cattle prices skid. They'll have to ship the cattle farther to slaughter. That ups the feedlots costs. Basis will also weaken among plants in the vicinity of the closed plant. Cattle previously processed at the Plainview plant will instead likely be processed at other plants in Texas, Kansas and Colorado. Cargill remains committed to beef business Cargill, the largest private U.S. company in terms of revenue, said there was too much industry processing capacity in the Texas panhandle, with four plants. "Other Cargill plants around the country will not be affected," says John Keating, president of Cargill Beef, based in Wichita, Kansas. The company has invested $766 million in its U.S. beef plants over the past decade. "Our long-term commitment to U.S. beef production is unwavering," he says. Cargill also says it will assist the displaced employees in trying to find jobs at other Cargill plants or with other companies.

I am already coming back for more. My favorite product purchased through Birchbox. I recommend it to all of my friends. My hair has never looked or smelled better.
I have very thick hair that tangles easy. This works great to be able to comb it out. My daughter has used this after swimming as a conditioner and pre swim leave in. Great light scent but not overpowering!
This product has totally revolutionized my haircare routine! I received this in my October box and even before I used up the sample, I rushed to order the full size product. It smells great and with just a few spritzes my hair comes out so much smoother and shinier after blow drying. I really like that it's a heat protectant and benefits my highlighted hair. I can't imagine what I would do without it now! Must try and must buy!
I have long, thick but not coarse hair that tangles easily. I have tried every product and sometimes they would make my back and neck breakout, or make my hair feel too oily or too dry. This stuff smells amazing, only takes a couple pumps to use on my hair, and works great when blowdrying and styling. It's lightweight and makes my hair shine. I purchased the full size after getting it in my October box.
I LOVE this stuff! It does exactly what it should. I feel like it protects my hair(and detangles) and it has a great smell. I received it as a sample in my birchbox and decided to purchase and I am not disappointed.
I am always a bit hesitant to try new hair products, but I would highly recommend you try this product! It made my hair so soft and shiny!
I loved the 12 Benefits instant healthy hair treatment. I would say it is comparable to it's a 10 miracle spray, but makes my hair softer.
I put my hair through a lot and this spray has definitely made a difference! My hair feels and looks healthier after using. I will most likely buy this product once it runs out! Be careful not to go spray crazy!
I was skeptical that this would leave my hair feeling oily as I naturally have more of an oily scalp. Nope! It gave my hair that extra healthy boost. I can now confidently use heat tools everyday knowing that I've got this to save my hair.
Love the smell and the product is great, it conditions nicely and leaves your hair feeling wonderful! Made it easy to blow dry my hair and flat iron it!
