When it comes to my hair, “picky” is an understatement. I’ve always been very particular, which allowed me to maintain long, shiny, healthy hair (despite all the chemical processing I was doing to it). So when postpartum hair loss hit me like a freig...
The biggest contributor to stopping my postpartum hair loss, hands down.

I added B vitamins to my regimen for energy, but these have biotin in them as well. Perfect for strong hair and nails! These are a great price for the amount, too.
Micro Ingredients Pure Methylated B Complex, 240 Capsules
Truly game-changer. I had accepted frizzy wake-up hair as a fact of life. It took me 36 years to understand what women of color have always known: silk bonnets are magic.

I’ve used Pureology on and off since I was a teenager and first getting my hair highlighted. I love how gentle it is! Bonus points for how amazing it smells.

Definitely a splurge item, but there’s a reason why I keep coming back to Pureology. It’s also super concentrated, so a little goes a long way!
Pureology Hydrate Conditioner
As a blonde, I’m no stranger to Olaplex products, but this one is by far my favorite. I find other leave-in conditioners SO temperamental: a little bit too much and you’re left with greasy hair that makes you want to wash it all over again. This one ...

Nº.6 BOND SMOOTHER®
The GOAT. I used to use Olaplex 3 once or twice a month, but K18 has outperformed. You only need to use it once a month or so, depending on your level of chemical processing.
When they say “light and smooth,” they mean it! I’ve truly never experienced a shampoo like this. It leaves my hair SO soft! I like to switch between this and Pureology to avoid buildup.

Best used with the corresponding shampoo. Again, idk what it is, but this shampoo and conditioner are magic. My hair is so prone to tangles, but not with this shampoo and conditioner!

Sometimes I want to switch it up and use something other than Olaplex No 5. This serum leaves my hair SO soft and light. Zero grease or weird residue. It works beautifully with the DCH light and smooth shampoo and conditioner.
