| Spring asparagus at Santa Monica Farmers' Market |
Asparagus. The queen of spring. Elegant, fresh- and addictive. For many of us, the primavera arrival of asparagus is big news. Huge. Exciting. We simply can't get enough. You see, there is something magical about asparagus. Maybe it's the sexy reputation. Isabelle Allende describes asparagus as phallic in her memoir, Aphrodite

, describing gardens lush with it, and stalks thick as trees. She throws in a few maidens with obvious oral fixations and well. You can guess the rest. To be honest, the whole thick as a tree trunk thing, though, is a bit much. Big stalks? Not gonna impress me. I tend to gravitate to the slender young asparagus, myself. The slimmer the better, in my gluten-free part of the world. Why? I barely cook them. It's more like a coaxing. A gentle flash in the pan with some fruity olive oil and a kiss of balsamic vinegar.

>> Overall <<
The 3 conditioner I have reviewed above are not bad at all.
Each hair have different needs so what works for me doesn't always mean will works for you.
My rank order choice will be the Asience, L'oreal, & then Dove.
I've been using these products for as long as few months each except for the Asience which I only have been using for a week.
But if there's any updates of more progress-regress or improvement-unimprovement I will definitely tell youu & update you^^
love.love ♥♥
