  • Timothy Galfas II - As good as the previous versions but disappointing

    Streets and Trips is important for many mapping and geographical reasons for anyone in marketing, traveling or simply wanting to know what is where. The edition I received came with plain Jane neutral color tool bar, [The universal sort of earth tone color was reminiscent of Stalinist era bland on Russian documents] no intuitive changing of default icons, many test addresses still not updated since 2010. The company's published balance sheet indicates they have the financial resources to have made some significant advances. This just is not it. Maybe next year.

  • SueBob - Blondes must have this!

    If you're a blond -- natural or otherwise --, you'll be very happy with John Frieda's shampoo and conditioner, Blonde Color Renew. These 2 products keep my color true and bright up until my next coloring appointment. Alas, they're hard to find in most stores, so I always get them from amazon at a great price. I recommend all Frieda's products made especially for blondes.

  • B-Mon30 - Soft and NOT brassy!

    I have dark blonde to light brown hair that I get blonde highlights in about once every 6-8 weeks. I do have well water, but it's softened and not very "hard" at all. Every so often, I notice that my blonde starts to look a little brassy ("orangey"), and it really takes away from the beautiful job my colorist does. She had recommended Paul Mitchel violet shampoo, but was always out of stock. I happened to be at the drug store and saw this on sale, so I picked up both the shampoo & conditioner.
