In January 2021, I chopped my hair to a cool bob and kept that length for a year or so before letting it grow out again. I loved the bob, but it was higher maintenance for me so here we are! Here’s my latest routine for healthy, longer hair:
The Products I Love
I’ve found a great set of products that make a world of difference for my hair. I can’t live without Oribe (Oribe gold lust shampoo and conditioner, blowout spray and texturizing spray are my holy grail products) and I use mostly that line thanks to a recommendation from my hair colorist Beth. I also love Quai’s detox shampoo that I use each time I wash my hair. I double or triple wash my hair to get it super clean and I always start with Quai.
When my hair wasn’t feeling super healthy, I started using K18 leave in repair mask which clinically reverses damage and I felt the difference in my hair immediately. It’s super expensive and I used a bottle of the travel size.
How Often I Wash and Style My Hair
I wash my hair every 5-6 days and use the Dyson blowdryer paired with the Dyson Airstrait. Cutting down to mostly the Dyson Airstrait has cut down on the heat damage as that tool works so quickly and efficiently and leaves my hair smooth. Sometimes I’ll take an extra step and add some bouncy curls with this curling iron and using these Dry Bar self grip rollers just around my face.
Services for my Hair
I get my hair cut every three months. I used to stretch this out but my hair feels better than ever because I keep up with super consistent cuts. I recommend Jason Nash and Riley Taite. Riley is who has been most recently cutting my hair with lots of face framing and long layers.
My hair color is more like every 3-4 months. I don’t mind it grown out at all since I’ve been sticking to a very natural color with light highlights. I see Beth Nash for color and have been going to her for the better part of 17 years.
I also still get Brazilian blowouts around every 3-4 months, timed right after hair color appointments. And I see Kaelyn for this service! This cuts down on my dry time and makes my hair smoother and more manageable.
