Current Hair Products + Tools
Hi Friends!
Hope y’all are having a great week!
Gonna share my current favorite products & tools, how I use them, and also gonna attach a YT vid of what I ask for when I get my hair done (for any of those who are interested!).
Okay lets get to it. All links will be available & explained!
I usually shower every 3-4 days to preface, so I don’t do all of these steps all the time. Certain products will be used every shower sesh and other products will only be used weekly. I use the Olaplex 3 once a week before I shower. I’ll get my hair wet & let it set on my hair for 10 min. This is AMAZING for dry hair and was so needed for my hair after I went lighter. Once I get in the shower I rinse this off and start step 2.
I shampoo with Iles 1. I like to shampoo twice, once to get the gunk out of my hair (dry shampoo, hairspray, etc.) and another time to actually clean my hair.
I’ll condition with Iles 2. I only condition for mid lengths down to avoid any greasiness on my roots throughout my non shower days. I’m also going to use a Iles hair mask I use once a week instead of conditioning.
Okay now I’m out of the shower with towel dried hair (just to give y’all a clear visual hahahaha). I will rotate every other shower with Iles 3 & Olaplex 6 as my finishing heat serum. I like using Olaplex 6 on towel dried hair more because every day on my dry hair i put a pea sized amount of Iles 3 as a daily heat protectant.
I either let my hair air dry or blow dry with my T3 NOT on the highest heat. T3 has damaged my hair before from high heat so I definitely watch that now.
Apply hair spray before curling hair (I haven’t tried before straightening but try it and lemme know if you like it!). Finally I use my GHD curler or flat iron to style my hair. I prefer this iron over T3 because it is way less damaging to your hair. After I curl I wait at least 10 min to brush it.
Lastly after I’ve brushed through my curls I finish with Moroccan Oil hairspray. I hate hairspray usually, but this one has a great hold and is super light. Easy to brush through and get my “messy look” without looking like I have mounds of hairspray in. Make sure to get the exact one linked as there’s a bunch of different kinds.
