I just experienced a hair miracle of the highest order. I know I should downplay this since it’s Easter, and we all know that was a huge miracle, too. But I’ve pondered the mystery of Jesus for decades and I’ve only had good hair once. Here’s how it went down:

I am constantly on the look out for new hair products. Most styling aids simply don’t work for me. Like my mother, I have baby-fine hair—the bane of our existences. Here’s what I/we need in a hair product: it has to be volumizing, it must give me texture and definition, it has to impart a healthy shine, it must create a lived-in look on clean hair and it has to smell good.... and it has to hold my style all day.... and not flake between washes. Simple, right? I’m just a regular guy.

My friend G. was raving about Moraccanoil the last time I saw her, and I’ve been obsessed with trying it ever since. I am skeptical about putting oil in my hair, though; My hair and deep conditioning do not mix. (I once deep conditioned my hair with coconut oils then washed it with a coconut shampoo before I had to sing an aria at a friend's wedding. I looked like Squiggy from Laverne & Shirley.) But when I saw that Moroccanoil is now offering a hairspray and a light oil formula I decided to give them both a try.

Moroccanoil Luminous Hairspray Strong Flexible Hold is infused with argon oil and truly gives your hair weightless hold! Click here to learn more.

I dabbed a small amount of the Moroccanoil Light Hair Treatment into my hands and applied it to my washed and towel-dried hair. Nice smell. Not too greasy. So far, so good. I blow dried my hair the way I normally do. (This is when the miracle started to begin.) As I dried my hair, I noticed it taking on a heavenly sheen and other-worldly body. It was the best blow-drying experience of my life. Even better than the ones Sharon used to give me at Partner's in Yorkton. My style was truly enlightened. I looked like an 80s movie star—the look I am currently going for.

As I ran my fingers through my hair—perhaps a little too sensually—it fell into place exactly how I wanted it to. I nervously reached for the Moroccanoil Luminous Hairspray and started spraying for my life. “So this is what a luxe hairspray is supposed to be like,” I thought to myself as a superfine-yet-powerful mist coated my locks. Now the true test began—how long will this all last. Some miracles are but an illusion.

I constantly checked in on my hair through the day. Ran my fingers through it. Gave myself flirty eyes. It held up. If anything it somehow improved! But here is when I knew I had a bonafide miracle on my head. The next morning I woke up, dragged myself to the bathroom and expecting to see my usual cross between Alfalfa and the guy from Flock of Seagulls:

Only to find I was still more like Ted McGinley. 

Somehow my style held up through the night. That never happens to me when I have longer hair. Amazing!

So this is two miracles for me (I kept on waking up in third year university with stigmata). Now with this latest hair-related miracle I only have one more to go before I’m up for canonization and I’m really nervous about it. Talk about a big step in life. But, if anything, my newfound good hair might open up a host of miraculous activity in my life. And when Pope Benedict XVI kisses my head to congratulate me, he will bury his nose in my soft voluminous coif, breathe deeply and say, “do you use Moroccanoil by any chance?”
