Care for your Hair

Woman Getting Haircut emoji 17 items
Care from ends to roots for your hair. Bondi Boost is a current fav and tried and true, but you'll notice some other quality brands scattered throughout that I simply can't get enough of and really maintain my hair and keep it healthy.

Bondi Boost Babe

I've always known I'm meant to be down under ;)

I 100% think this contributed to my hair growing as long as it did in such a short time. It makes my hair so soft and shiny – especially after a pool day.

I love this finishing oil (this one or the Ouai). It doesn't leave your hair feeling greasy and it keeps your ends fresh and undamaged. I pair it with the repair mask to really lay those dead ends to rest, but it's fine to use on its own.
BOND BUILDER FINISHING OIL

I've used this a couple times and I'm not sure I like how it makes my hair feel (like I can tell there's  product in my hair), BUT it does what it says it does and my ends are healing as is the rest of my hair. I pair it with the repair oil for a hair care match made in heaven.

Is my hair thinning… NO. Do you still need this product… YES. My hair is so long and strong. The product smells yummy and it really works, trust.

Use this with the shampoo (duh) and watch your hair transform, literally. It smells minty and fresh and your hair will thank you for it.

Do I own this tool, no. Do I want to? WELL DUH. I think this would be a great Mother's Day or Birthday gift for the special gal or guy in your life.

After a week of not washing my hair, I use this before my regular shampoo to get rid of all the buildup from dry shampoos etc. I have used this detox shampoo for years and I won't use anything else. I will save for this if I have to. It's a top 10.

I fear this may be a new fav! I recently was gifted this product and remained skeptical but it smelled SO good and it seemed to do its job.

I think this is a great cost effective dry shampoo option. It adds a nice texture to the hair and it also has a brunette option available for those with darker hair.

For a sulfate free shampoo option this one doesn't make my hair feel like straw or slimy. It also smells like a salon quality product without breaking the bank.

This is one of my ride or die products at the moment. IT keeps my hair moisturized, protected from heat and silky smooth. Cutting your hair removes dead ends and this keeps them away.

For salon quality at budget prices this is a STEAL for a jumbo. It smells so yummy and the perk of using it with short hair… it will last you AGES. Never feels like it leaves a weird film on my hair, great for color treat hair, and actually CLEANS.

If you get the shampoo why wouldn't you also get the conditioner… duh :)

I thought my nanny was crazy telling me I needed a mousse for my short hair if I wanted to keep the blow dried style… I hate to admit but hers was right. Just get the mousse.

You'll need a tiny ponytail holder. Could you still use a regular sized, sure. But you have less hair to hold so you only need a little pony. It's kind of weird, but it works.

If you have bangs… or you can't get your hair behind your ears, you will want a head band. I didn't think I would, I do. Do yourself a favor.
