The main questions I get asked by you all is what hair products I use and how I style my hair. So I decided to put together a little post that covers both topics! Because my hair products I use help me manage my hair and my hair style daily, combining the posts only seemed fitting!
First off, lets talk about my go-to hair products. I have an incredibly sensitive scalp so it look me a while to find a product that didn’t make me itch but also made my thick hair feel wonderful. After many years, I finally settled on using Moroccanoil’s hydrating shampoo and conditioner. These product not only makes your hair incredibly soft, it also keeps any natural thickness and bounce in tact. Note that it can be pricey – but I always buy large bottles on Amazon!
Once I take a shower, I comb through my hair using a Wet Brush. My hair can get very knotted after showering. This amazing little wonder somehow can brush through thick and course hair easily. And the one item I definitely can’t go without is sea salt spray! There’s a lot of brands I like using but here’s the one I use!
Now for styling. I always try to let my hair air dry as much as possible. Sometimes life gets in the way and that isn’t doable, but letting my hair air dry keeps a lot of the natural curl. Then I heat up a curling iron – I use a 1/2 inch iron and a 1 inch iron. I like separate my hair in layers before curling.
To curl, I take a decent size of hair and twirl it in my fingers. Then I wrap the curling iron up my hair.
I curl the iron down the strand until it’s at the bottom of the hair. Once I release the iron, I let the curl cool down for a second then I run my hands through it. Once my hair is curled, I quickly spray Moroccanoil hair spray into my hair to boost up the bounce and to keep the curl longer!
