Hair Care Routine

Recently I updated my hair care routine and I thought I should share it with you all. I should mention I have long, straight, relatively healthy, dark brown hair, that doesn’t hold a curl wear well and can tend to become very lifeless and heavy feeling. Also, my hair will take three days to fully air dry, and will feel strange and dirty after it does air dry, so i always blow dry it. These are something I do to help add life and make it lighter. 

Starting off with washing my hair. I wash my hair every two days, as my hair becomes too dry if I do it any more, and too greasy if any less. I typically use any shampoo but I care more about conditioner. Lately I have been using Head and Shoulders Apple Fresh shampoo (mainly because the scent is amazing!) and Treseme conditioner.

I then brush my hair with my Tangle Teaser (the best brush money can buy) and apply mouse. I blow dry my hair upside down to add volume at the roots and to make sure all of my hair is dry from root to tip. Usually if this is before bed, I will apply some Herbal Essences leave in conditioner to make my ends look healthy and smell wonderful. 

When I go to sleep, I try to either sleep with my hair down or in a soft material hair tie. Sleeping in regular hair ties leaves me with dents I will have to straighten out and damaged looking hair, as well as knotty hair. 

As fair as heat styling goes, I straighten my hair a lot, to get rid of dents and frizz, and curl/wave my hair on occasion and when I do this will use Treseme heat protecting spray to protect my hair and Treseme hair spray to hold any curl or wave I manage in my hair. The tools I use are Nikki Clarke wide plated straightening iron and Treseme waving wand for curls or waves. 

And that’s it! I obviously have days where I don’t heat style my hair so don’t use hairspray or some other products but that tends to be the usual for me!
