As the Chair Turns - The Camping Edition (July 2018)

This month’s newsletter was inspired by the fact that I will be taking a week long, car camping, road trip up the California coasts into Oregon the last week of July.   You read that right.   I’m actually going to be taking a long overdue vacation.   So, if you are due for a hair appointment you may want to scheduled something before I head out that week.
 
Many of you will be vacationing, hitting the road, or even camping over the next couple months so I want to make sure you (well, at least your hair) looks good.   

I found some really good information to help with your camping hair needs.   There are hair tips for dealing with dirty, day old hair and making it look good, what to do if you don’t have water for shampooing, and even a curly hair camping survival guide.  If you have shorter hair my best advise would be to limit your hair product usage to a minimum.   Guys, if you have long hair, I’ve got your camping hair covered, too.   One common thread in these articles is dry shampoo.  Dry shampoo is a great option for both long and short hair.  

Depending on where you're heading this summer you might be some long travel days.   Podcasts can be a great way to help pass the time so think about subscribing to a podcast or two and upping your outdoor game. 

Don’t forget to bring a good book.  There are a couple links with summer favorites for your reading list.   You may even want to download the audio-book version of some of your favorites, too.  

I have a nice article for you on handy personal hygiene tips when camping to keep you fresh.   

First Aid is important while you’re camping and hiking and you’ll need to be able to identify and treat those summer skin rashes.  

You’ll want to plan a few campsite meals, too, right.  I have some easy campfire recipes for you.   Mmm, Camping Mac n’ Cheese.  

If camping isn’t your thing, I stumbled across a great article with some of the best Glamping spots in the US.   This article reminded me I need to plan a trip to Safari West in Sonoma County.  

All of that and more in this month’s “Camping Edition”.

Happy trails...
