Hair feeling dull, dry, and lifeless? Been through thousands of products to try and revive your hair? Sick and tired of spending so much money on hair products for them to not even work? This list is for you! I too have fallen victim to spending crazy money on hair care when the drugstore basics do great work too! To give credit where it’s due, I follow Abbey Yung on TikTok and I recommend checking her out if you haven’t already! She highlights both higher end and drugstore products and teaches you the “Abbey Yung method”. And this girl works wonders!! Even after a day of doing her method I saw a noticeable difference in my hair! It was shinier, softer, and overall had a glow to it! I hope this list helps and can revive your hair without making your wallet cry! 💗
Let’s talk hair care before we jump in to the recommendations! Optimizing your hair health can be so nice and rewarding especially when there is actually a noticeable difference. But it can be tricky to navigate. The best thing to do is start small and work your way up. Find your basics such as a good shampoo, conditioner and leave in (with heat protectant) for post-wash. Once you’re feeling confident with those, then branch out to adding in more products like glosses, masks, oils, and serums. Please note that you do not want to overload your hair. That’s why you start small, and if your routine with just a few products works well, then keep it at that. A big indicator of overloaded hair is a sort of greasy feel even after you wash. Just take things slow, find what you like, and optimize YOUR routine for YOU! Everyone’s hair is so unique which is so beautiful, so some things may work for others and not for you. It’s all about finding a good balance for yourself. Good luck on your hair journey!!
