Up until we moved to Orlando, I had never really died my hair or did anything to it. So when we moved to Orlando and Khristina reached out to me and was like let me do your hair, I was like…SURE, let’s do it! I had been thinking about going lighter and it was like she read my mind and knew that I wanted my hair done. I knew I wanted to go super blonde and have silvery and purple pieces in it! But sometimes I also just do blonde. If you are in the area, I go to Khristina at Educe Salon and she is AMAZING. I just wanted to go over all of the items that I use and when I use them and how often and all of that sort of thing!

HAIR PRODUCTS

1. Odele Volumizing Shampoo - I got this shampoo so I could use something on opposite washes of the Olaplex and I really like it! I says to wash with it twice but if you lather it in your hands really well and then work it into your hair adding a little water it will lather and suds up just fine! I really like the way that my hair feels after the shower when I use this shampoo and its conditioner as well!

2. Olaplex Bond Treatment Shampoo - I had heard great things about Olaplex, like a few years of people hyping it up before I pulled the trigger. I really like the way that my hair feels and defiantly know that there is less breakage. I was so worried about this when I started coloring my hair but this has helped so much!

3. Odele Conditioner - Shortly after I got the Odele shampoo I wanted to also switch up my conditioner so that I wasn’t using a purple conditioner every time I was washing my hair because I was finding it to be really drying. So I just went with the same brand and I have been equally impressed with the conditioner as I was with the shampoo!

4. Shu Uemera Blonde Anti-Brass Mask - This is a purple conditioner that I leave in for as long as possible. I have been using this for just under a year and it is incredible! Opposite to the Living Proof, I use this conditioner and I leave it in my hair for 12-15 minutes {basically as long as I can while I am still in the shower}.

5. Bumble & Bumble Blow Dry Accelerator Spray - I’ve used this blow dry accelerator for about 4 years now and I have repurchased it like 3 times! I love it so much, it takes about 4-5 sprays and it makes my hair dry so much faster. It is also great because it acts as a heat protectant from the blow dryer and whatever other hot tools I use on my hair that day!

6. Ouai Leave in Conditioner - I sort of said this above but when I use my purple conditioner to keep my blonde it can be a little bit drying so I spray this in on my wet hair before I brush out my hair it is so great. I just got the little size to try but when I run out I will be getting the bigger size.

7. Kerastase Resistance Serum - I have had this same bottle for over a year now and it still feels full! I got this either the first or second time I went to see Kristina at Educe and I can’t believe I haven’t had to buy another one. It literally makes your hair feel like you just got a fresh haircut! It heals hair ends, acts as a heat protectant and nourishes damaged hair. It honestly just makes your hair feel so good, I feel like I share this product with everyone that comes into my bathroom, plus everyone over on my Instagram stories!

8. SGX NYC Dry Touch Volumizing Dry Shampoo - This is seriously my tried and true dry shampoo! When I have this in my hair it feels fresh and clean again without the feeling of having product in my hair! I can’t believe how impressed I am with this dry shampoo. Its smells so good and there is no residue when its sprayed!

9. Moroccan Oil Moisture Mask - I use this hydrating hair mask and I leave it in for 2-3 hours and then wash it out in the shower and use shampoo and conditioner after it is rinsed out! It works really well and doesn’t leave my hair feeling really heavy the next morning which is huge for me and one of the things I look for most in a hair mask! I think I will use this 2-3 times a month just for some hydration in my hair, especially going into the pool months and being outside a lot and in the sun.

I feel like that might have been a lot of information but I wanted to have it all in one spot! I finally have like “my favorites” and I just want to share them with everyone. I will also share my Dry Shampoo Review that I did and my Updated Skincare Routine while we are on the topic of all things beauty related! I am slowly writing updated blog posts for all of these topics. If you have any questions at all feel free to comment below and I will respond in a comment.
