Adventures in Hair Care

I keep hearing people talk about how busy they are, and I thought I’d share one of my time-saving secrets with my blog readers:

Don’t brush your hair. I mean never, except as a gesture of respect right before you go to your hair stylist. Not only is brushing your hair time consuming (the average woman brushes her hair at least twice each day) it is completely unnecessary. The only potential problem is that your hair could start to mat up and be difficult to untangle. I recently had this problem when I returned from two weeks of ice climbing in Ouray, but I discovered that I could quickly take care of it by cutting out all of the offending dreadlocks with a pair of travel scissors.

Give it a go, you might never look back.

Ouray Ice Festival Demo climb video

New YouTube Channel and Glitter Girls on Ice deadline

Things are winding down in the tiny mountain town of Ouray, Colorado as the 2010 Ouray Ice Festival comes to a close. We had a fun weekend filled with clinics, demos, competitions, and climbing. Many people are walking away having accomplished their goals, including Will Gadd who finished his 24 hours of non-stop ice climbing at noon on Sunday, completing 194 laps of the 145ft pitch “Pick of the Vic”. His was a project to raise money for the DZI Foundation, a non-profit organization based in Ridgeway, Colorado.

You can view a short clip from my women’s lead clinic on Saturday on my *NEW* YouTube Channel. My demo climb with Cheryl Wallace will be up shortly, and you can check back for more clips in the weeks to come. Make sure to subscribe so you don’t miss out on anything!

I just got a new pair of Black Diamond Cobra ice tools and am more psyched than ever to get on some big climbs in the Canadian Rockies next month. Stay tuned for a review of these coming soon…

If you haven’t signed up already for Glitter Girls on Ice, time is running out! You’ve got until January 21st to sign up HERE.
Happy Swinging,
