Fun Ways To Spice Up Your Hairdo!

Posted in Encouragement, Health & Beauty by

Hi friends,

How are you doing? Hanging in there? I hope so. We’ve all received encouragement to keep on moving. That means working in different rooms, picking up hobbies, and changing out of our PJs!

Most of us still need to show our faces for work / conference calls, and connecting with loved ones via FaceTime.

So, what are you doing with your hair? Did you get it done before salons closed? If you’re someone who has been depending on going out to get your hair done, this may be a funky time for you.

I thought of a few at-home suggestions, while we wait, OR for when you just want to make changes and have fun:

Collaboration: Thank you to Maple Holistics for making this post happen!

Since I began my hair growth journey (April ’18), I’ve been more viligant about finding quality products to use. Personally, I gravitate towards products that help strengthen my hair.

Everyone’s hair is different, so it’s important to do research to find out what’s going on and what works best for you. Check out this blog post.

Recently, Maple Holistics reached out and asked if I wanted to try their products. Since I’m particular, I took comfort in knowing their products are made with natural products, void of parabens and sulfates, and cruelty-free. I asked if their products worked for all hair types, and they said yes!

Summer Project: My Hair

Newsflash: I’ve been growing out my hair.

It’s been a journey, a struggle, and everything in between.

A lil’ backstory: I had shoulder-length hair for most of my life. Most of y’all have only seen me with this short cut, but yeah, I had the braids, french braids, buns, and all of that jazz growing up. As college and life happened, stress occurred. LOTS OF IT. Stress manifests in different ways physically. For me, that was my hair. It would break off, sometimes literally falling out. It was getting to be ridiculous and it was hard to disguise it. Ten years ago, I decided to take that step and cut it all off.
