UPDATED HAIR CARE ROUTINE

http://www.shopstyle.com/collective/notsetinsilverstone/42998139



Heading into the New Year, I decided to change up a lot of things, including my hair care routine! I never want to give feedback on products that I haven’t had a chance to really integrate into my daily routine, so it’s taken me about a month to fairly and honestly review each product that I’ve listed. I’m excited to say that I have been loving the products, and the results that I've been seeing. Below, are all the steps and products that I use. Hope you enjoy!

SHAMPOO – If you're like me, you associate minty freshness with winter. I have found a shampoo (and linked a very similar one) that I love! Maple Holistic recently reached out to me, and asked if I'd like to try one of their tea tree shampoos. Not only are their product extremely affordable, they are cruelty and paraben free, and actually promote hair growth!

CONDITIONER – Unfortunately, this conditioner is only available through your hair salon, or the L’Oreal site, however, it is definitely worth looking into. My stylist recommended this after I had complained about excessive breakage. He said I could use it as an overnight mask, or as a conditioner. It is on the pricier side, but I love it so far, especially since

HAIR MASK – I’ve been using this mask twice a week now, and my hair is always silky smooth after. I shampoo, and condition, then leave this mask on while I’m shaving my legs. It doesn’t leave any sort of film after being washed out, and is super versatile. It can be used as a conditioner, as a mask, or as a leave in product.

LEAVE-IN CONDITIONER – After years of coloring my hair, I started to see the toll that it was taking and wanted to up my conditioning game, even out of the shower. This company makes so many great products, that all smell amazing, and I’ve found that a nickel-size amount of this leave-in conditioner not only detangles, but also adds moisture to my hair without weighing it down.

BLOW DRY GEL – I always thought that if I put too many products in my hair, it would leave a residue; it’s all about finding the right products though! My hair is relatively thin, and it seems to be especially flat in the back of my head. This is where this volumizing gel comes in handy. It’s a great first layer to use as a heat protectant, and to give your hair some body while blow drying it. A small amount goes a long way, so even though it’s pricier than most drug-store brands, it will last you a while. 

STYLING TOOLS – I’ve also learned that it’s important to use the correct brush and blow dryer to style your hair. I love this brush, and this blow dryer. The blow dryer I have is an older model, so I’ve linked an almost identical one which includes the same nozzle attachments as mine. It took me a couple years to find the correct round brush, as I would wait until mine was practically falling apart to buy a new one. I picked this one up at a local drugstore. When I was in college, I shelled out close to $100 for an expensive straightener, and 6 months later, it died on me. I found this flatiron when I was searching for my hair dryer, and it has lasted me going on 4 years. It uses the same technology, and is a third of the price of a high end one. For me, that’s a win! 

FLAT IRON SPRAY – After I blow dry my hair, I let it cool for a few minutes, and then I spray on this heat protectant spray. Didn’t I just protect my hair with my volumizing gel? Yes, but I feel like this spray is dual purpose – it protects and it leaves my hair feeling silky smooth and gets rid of the fly-away baby hairs I have. Plus, it smells great!

HAIR OIL – One of my roommates in college brought this home one day, and I was terrified to use it, especially since my scalp can get rather oily in the summer. She reassured me that the tiniest bit would add shine to my hair without making it look like I could fry an egg on it. She was right! You can use this oil in wet or dry hair, and again, the smallest amount goes the longest way, especially in dry hair. This is the last step in my hair care process; I normally use it on the ends of my hair, and put the remainder all throughout the top and middle layers of my hair.



Et voilà! There is my updated hair care routine. Do you have a favorite hair product or tool that you love? I’m always up for any recommendations! Feel free to leave a comment below and as always, thanks so much for stopping by!

  1. I use the Ogx Nourishing coconut milk conditioner as a conditioner in the shower and also apply a small amount as a leave in conditioner after I've gotten out and gently towel dried my hair. It works well for detangling and leaves my hair feeling light and silky but not greasy!
