My Hair Care Routine


Our hair is one of our best accessories. Unfortunately, we take advantage of it with all the heating from hair tools. We all want gorgeous tresses for everyone to envy, but it can be really difficult to achieve when it is damaged. Taking the time to take care of your hair will make the biggest difference in its strength and shine. Throughout the years, I've learned many tips and tricks to maintaining its vivacity. Since dyeing my hair, I've noticed that my hair has become dry, weak, and has lost the shine it used to have. Slowly, I have regained all that it has lost and I wanted to share all the products I use and could not live without! Feel free to share any tips in the comments below, I would love to read them!


     

Helpful Tips & Tricks
- Avoid washing hair in hot water, the heat can affect your hair's elasticity and cuticles.
- Use a deep conditioning mask at least two times a week, it does wonders to your hair! Adding moisture, strength and shine are just a few of the benefits.
- Use conditioner BEFORE applying your shampoo. It gives you amazing volume!
-Skip washing your hair every other day to restore your hair's natural oils and avoid dryness.
- Instead of using a curling wand, try braiding your hair over night or using texturing sprays which give perfect beachy waves!
- Apply coconut or argan oil to the tips of your hair to strengthen them and avoid split ends.
- Brush your hair with a wide-tooth comb before the shower to avoid tangles and split ends.
- Braid your hair at night to avoid hair fall-out while you sleep.
- Use shampoos that do NOT contain sulfates because they strip your hair of its natural oils thus drying it and causing breakage.


Current Favorite Products

     

- Tresemme Volumizing Dry Shampoo
I use this srtuff in between washes and when I want some extra "Umph!" to my hair.

- L'Oreal Ever Pure Sulfate-Free Shampoo & Conditioner
I've been noticing a big difference ever since using sulfate-free shampoos and this is my favorite!

- Macadamia Deep Repair Masque
This is magic and I wish it wasn't so pricy, but it is sooo worth it for what it does! Hair feels brand new! I use this twice a week, in the shower for 5-7 minutes before rinsing.

- Not Your Mother's Beach Babe Texturizing Spray
My hair looks amazing after applying this, it looks like I just stepped out of the beach. Just spray, twist and scrunch!

- Redken Heat Protectant Serum
I use this before applying heat to my hair and it does a great job at protecting it!
