Products that LIVE in my shower and I buy on repeat.
I love to use this 1-2x/week to fully cleanse and clarify my scalp & hair. It makes me feel like I’m at the spa 🧖🏼♀️
Nioxin | Purifying Shampoo
Worth the upgrade - this purple conditioner is the best of the best ✨✨ and lasts a long time on short hair. I like to go platinum in a few spots to add dimension to my cut so this purple conditioner keeps my highlights from going brassy!
Kevin Murphy | BLONDE.ANGEL Conditioner
With going platinum I like to play around with color too and these conditioners make it so easy & fun! Apply after using your clarifying conditioner for peak color or use the silverwash everyday to keep your locks looking fresh & not brassy.
Celeb Luxury Viral Colorwash Shampoo
Apply to Damp Hair
My routine is literally towel dry my hair, spray in some products, hastily blow-dry my hair for 5 minutes then use some form of texturizer to piece out my style!
This stuff is in everyone’s drawer for a reason 🙌🏽 some days it’s all I get in my hair (I have 2 tiny kids 🙃) and this product takes care of my hair all day.
Bumble & Bumble | Hairdresser's Invisible Oil
I love this mousse because it gives my short hair incredible volume and hold without any of that sticky, crunchy feeling. I apply it to damp hair before blow-drying to create a full, bouncy base that stays flexible all day.
Kevin Murphy | BODY.BUILDER Mousse
This spray is my secret weapon for adding "grippy" texture and shine without the dryness of traditional salt sprays. I love to spray it on damp hair and scrunch it in to coax out my natural waves, or use it on dry hair to give my short cut a bit of e...
EIMI Wella | Sugar Lift Spray
This is the ultimate "surfer girl" spray for short hair, providing that messy, beachy texture without weighing it down. I spray it onto dry hair and give it a good tousle to bring out those effortless, sun-kissed waves I love.
Kevin Murphy | HAIR.RESORT Salt Spray
This salt-in-oil formula is a total game changer because it gives me those tousled, sun-dried waves with a healthy sheen instead of a matte finish. I shake it up and spray it onto damp hair, then twist and squeeze my strands to air-dry for a perfectl...
Bumble & Bumble | Surf Infusion Sea Salt Spray
This is the original salt spray that started it all, and it’s still my favorite for achieving that truly matte, windswept texture. I spray it evenly onto damp or dry hair and then twist small sections to create effortless, "just-off-the-beach" waves ...
Bumble & Bumble | Texturizing Surf Spray
Apply to Dry Hair
These are staples in my bathroom and they're a treat to use everyday!
I am obsessed with how this spray gives my short hair instant, full-bodied volume and a perfectly "tousled" look without feeling heavy. It’s my go-to for creating a piecey, defined style on dry hair that I can easily rework throughout the day.
Davine’s | Dry Texturizer Spray
This spray wax is the perfect finishing touch for my short cut, giving me that "undone" texture and satin-matte finish with zero stiffness. I love to spray it directly onto my dry roots for extra lift and then through the ends for natural-looking def...
Davine's | Dry Wax Finishing Spray
This is my go-to for instant, revivable volume and texture that never feels heavy or slippery. I shake the can well and spray it from root to tip on dry hair, then tousle with my fingers for a perfectly lived-in look that lasts all day.
Living Proof | Dry Volume & Texture Spray
I love using this matte clay to create "scruff-it-up" looks with a flexible hold that I can reshape all day. I emulsify a small amount in my hands and work it through my dry hair to add definition and volume right at the roots.
Sebastian | Craft Clay
This moldable clay is my favorite for creating a seriously strong hold with a slick, matte finish. I rub a small amount between my palms and distribute it through my hair to "rough up" the style and define choppy, textured shapes.
Kevin Murphy | ROUGH.RIDER Styling Clay
This is my secret to serious smoothness and frizz control without weighing down my fine hair. I apply it to clean, damp hair from roots to ends and then blow-dry for a sleek, manageable style that lasts for days.
Living Proof | No Frizz Smooth Styling Spray
This is hands-down the best dry shampoo because it actually cleans my hair by removing oil, sweat, and odor instead of just masking it. I spray it on my roots, wait 30 seconds for the powders to activate, and then massage it in for a fresh, "just-was...
Living Proof | Perfect Hair Day Dry Shampoo
I love this spray because it provides incredible shine and protection against heat styling tools. I shake the bottle to activate the shimmer complex and spritz it over my damp hair before using hot tools for a healthy, shimmering finish.
Sebastian | Trilliant Shine
