I’ve been using this Design Essentials shampoo for about 3 years now. If you have low porosity hair like me, you know how difficult it can be to find products that will actually help your hair retain its moisture. This shampoo has been a game-changer...

Aussie Miracle Moist Moisturizing Hair Conditioner
Trader Joe’s Tea Tree Tingle Shampoo is a really good clarifying shampoo. It leaves my scalp feeling like a piece of Winterfresh gum, haha. I use this shampoo once a month and follow it up with a hydrating shampoo and conditioner. If you purchase thi...
