Wash day
I’ve been using this post keratin treatments paired with the conditioner. I wash my hair once a week and this bottle goes a long way! I think I will get 6 months of wash! It is nourishing and detangling is so fast and easy!
Keratherapy Keratin Moisture Shampoo
I follow the shampoo with the companion conditioner. This doesn’t go as far as the shampoo. I’ve got one wash left before a restock. But it’s nice and lightweight and my hair looks great out of the shower.
KERATHERAPY Keratin Infused Moisture Conditioner
This is my favorite clarifying shampoo, a little goes a long way, it’s doesn’t strip my hair, and it’s not overly fragrant.
Deep Clean Clarifying Shampoo
I bought the trial size with the shampoo, conditioner, and leave in. I was hoping it wasn’t going to be worth the hype. But immediately out of the shower I could a major difference in how soft and moisturized my hair was. So, I can confirm that it’s ...
Innerscense Hydrating Cream Hairbath
The perfect companion to the hydrating hairbath. I have low porosity, thin, but high density hair and finding products that meet all those needs is difficult. I’m mad I didn’t try this combination sooner!

This has been a great edition to wash day. One of my biggest issues is frizz when it comes to the longevity of styling and this has significantly reduced my frizz and gives me and extra 2 days on a wash and go or braid out.

I love this spray leave in conditioner. It is definitely a pricier option, so when I have a more room in my budget I love to use one! It is lightweight and my hair feels hydrated and soft. I use it wash days and in between when I refresh my curls.

If you are on a tighter budget or just love saving you money for other ventures…this is the best lower priced leave in conditioner that I have found. It is a thicker formula compared to other spray leave ins. It leaves my hair soft and hydrated. And ...
I got this recommendation from the one and only Nina Pool as a dupe for the verb hair oil and as usual…she put me on to something that works great while saving money! I have never used it for heat styling, but I love this taking down braid outs and f...

Curl creams and gels
I love curl definition, but I don’t like have a crispy curl cast. It’s just a sensory nightmare to me. This gives curl definition and will allow you to fluff up curls which is my favorite look! If you want your curls to locked in for 1 week or longer...
The Doux Big Poppa Defining Gel
Post keratin treatment…..I can style with one product. Insane! If I want a light hold with soft curls…I reach for this. My curls will need a refresh a day or two later, but I love the softness and definition of my curls.

My hair is thin, but high density and it gets very tangled. I run the streamer through and apply a hair mask before I wash my hair and it is such a time saver. It also reduces breakage from brush detangling my hair.
Pattern Hair Steamer
She’s a pricey addition, but she is worth every penny. I have the original rev air that I purchased probably 8 years ago. I use it to stretch my hair before getting braids and it stretch and dry my braid outs.
Reverse-Air Dryer
I have tried so many shower caps. This one isn’t perfect, but it’s the best I’ve found. It’s lined with satin and has a drawstring, so it can be secured.
