The first 3 months of my silver hair journey, PLUS products I’ve been using during my grow out

March 18, 2023 By Michelle Rogers

Above: a video I posted on Instagram. Please connect with me there at @MRhealthyliving. Soooo....I’m doing a thing. A hair thing! I have dyed my hair dark for decades, most of the time it was darker than my natural color ever was. And because my hair grows really fast I’ve had to color my roots every two weeks!

VIDEO: Exercise at home using your laundry detergent!

April 9, 2020 By Michelle Rogers

You don't need to leave your house to get in a good workout. You don't even need weights or any special equipment! Here's an all-standing strength circuit workout I created that uses a 94.5 ounce bottle of laundry detergent (or fabric softener or dishwasher detergent) instead of traditional weights.
