“From coast to coast, the beaches of the USA offer a dazzling tapestry of natural beauty and coastal charm. On the shores of Hawaii, black volcanic sands meet crystal-clear waves, framed by lush cliffs and swaying palms. California’s coastline stretches endlessly with golden beaches backed by rugged bluffs and rolling surf, where each sunset paints the sky in fiery hues. Along Florida’s Gulf Coast, powder-soft white sand feels like silk beneath your feet, and the turquoise waters glisten like glass under the sun. The Outer Banks of North Carolina offer wild, windswept dunes and hidden coves steeped in history, while the beaches of Cape Cod charm with their gentle waves and weathered shingled cottages. From the dramatic seascapes of Oregon to the serene barrier islands of Georgia, the beaches of the USA are as diverse as they are unforgettable—a true paradise for every kind of beach lover.”

I have type 4 curly/coily hair that is prone to dryness I also like to color my hair so my main focus when it come to haircare is hydration & strengthening the hair to avoid as much breakage as possible.
My main style choice is a wash & go but I’ll occasionally wear it stretched(blowouts, braid outs, twist outs). I like to keep styles minimal because I choose color as my “poison” & I don’t want to push my hair past its limits.

I recommend choosing baby gear around the days you actually have: walks, car trips, carrying your baby, and play at home. I grouped my picks by those jobs so you can compare options without treating the list as a shopping checklist. I would check fit, age and size limits, cleaning needs, and available storage before choosing. My goal is a useful setup for your family, not the most expensive one.
I've been using this scent free, allergen friendly mix for years with hard or softened water, and our clothes come out fresh, clean, and no greasy film! (Psst, from testing recipes, I think it's the soap flake additions that generally cause film buildup). This recipe works great for regular loads AND for a 2 wash cycle diaper laundry as well (similar to Esembly's but half the cost to mix in bulk yourself). For a double wash cycle, first wash on cold or warm with regular setting. 2nd wash on hot with heavy duty setting.
INGREDIENTS:
Washing Soda 2 parts
