If you’ve been struggling with damaged hair I would definitely use this treatment at least once a month! It does have protein so too much of it can start the make hair brittle which is why once a month is recommended.

Many people think they may need super expensive moisturizers for their hair, but raw shea butter is one of the best moisturizers for my hair. Any brand works as long as it’s raw and it locks in moisture up to a week!✨

All of my high porosity girls, I just bought this and I loveee it. If you pair it with any oil it'll leave your hair overly moisturized without giving it a super watery feel.

It’s always good to invest in a good spray bottle! The one that sprays mist is one of my faves, but any regular spray bottle will do to dampen hair!

Always always always make sure to wear a bonnet as much as possible to keep hair from rubbing on clothes, pillows, face, etc. Minimizes breakage throughout the day and night while you sleep!

Don’t like the feeling of a bonnet on your head while you sleep? That’s okay! You can also sleep on a silk pillow case to prevent breakage from hair throughout the night while you sleep!✨

I definitely try to avoid wearing regular hair ties in my hair and opt for satin scrunchies! Minimizes breakage and is not at tight as a regular hair tie! Plus gives ponytails a little more volume!

If you’re like me and like to wear your hair stretched I would invest in a good salon grade blow dryer. I always use low heat to minimize breakage.
