I've adopted my share of environmentally-friendly behaviors in the past year. My family composts food and paper. I've stopped buying bottled water, and instead use a BPA-free, refillable bottle to hold water from the tap.
For those of you striving to do the same, another easy way to be green is to buy products made in a sustainable fashion.
Olivia Garden Healthy-Hair Eco-Friendly Bamboo Brushes, for example, are made from fast-growing bamboo instead of a slow-growing wood like Oak. Did you know bamboo can grow to a height of 60 feet in only 4 years? It takes an wood trees 25 to 60 years to grow to the same height! Using Bamboo instead of Maple or Oak helps to save our forests!
I'm a big fan of this scalp-massaging brush. Remember old episodes of The Brady Bunch, when Marcia Brady would stare at herself lovingly in the mirror, and brush her hair 100 strokes? She was doing that to keep her hair long, beautiful and strong! Brushing with a scalp massaging brush, like the one pictured above, helps to stimulate hair growth and distributes oils from the scalp throughout the hair shaft, resulting in shiny and strong hair!
Retail price for the Healthy Hair HH-3 Oval Brush is $10.80.
