The product I use the most! Eco gel is the best option for smoothing and securing your hair, it washes out instantly with water and the way it dries is perfect. Every morning I use a bit of the gel in my eyebrows, brush them up with a clean spoolie (empty mascara wand) and then PRESS them up with my finger to wipe off the excess gel. You should also use a clean spoolie to create the perfect sleek bun or ponytail by rubbing gel into the hairline and then shaping with the spoolie.

I used to be a blunt cut bob girlie but have changed my ways the last two years,
Protein & Moisture; super important, these two helped w strength & retention
protein treatment every 6 weeks followed by deep conditioner same day, hair mask once a week (something w NO protein!! just moisturizing)
Reducing heat and manipulation; heat style twice a week maximum if you can help it with the help of good heat protection (NO OIL PROTECTANTS!!! Kenra professional has my fave products - the blow out spray is amazing & worth its price) use sleep styles to protect your hair (im curly but do a blowout once a week- I maintain it by using a oversized pillow scrunchie at the top of my head pineapple style and my hair wrapped around the actual scrunchie- play around with it & how you sleep + how you want it styled in the morning + make sure that your hairline isn’t getting tugged around) itll prevent damage from heat constantly, friction from sleeping and i promise will make mornings way easier.
Scalp care: Rosemary oil will be your best friend!! Studies came out that it’s similar to 2.5% minoxidil - which is a OTC hair loss treatment. Mix oil of choice w dried rosemary (add dried buckroot & mint if you wanna get fancy, olive oil and jojoba havent steered me wrong yet!!) I like to do a cold infusion which can take two weeks but it’s cheaper and I know what’s going on my scalp. Put it on your scalp and massage for a few minutes, leave on for a few hours but if you want you can overnight, use a clarifying shampoo & follow up with protein/moisture depending on where you are in the cycle!
Taking care of my scalp, reducing hair & tbh- taking a solid multivitamin helped me a lot!
Products I luvvvvv;
Kendra Blowout Spray
Kendra Blowout Lotion
Rosemary oil DIY
Satin pillowcase & oversized scrunchie (you can find these on Amazon or Ulta! They will be life changers….)
Also- silk/satin scrunchies over regular hair ties, try to avoid any tension :)

Smelling like a sugar cookie will make men and women treat you better. I don’t go anywhere without spritzing on some vanilla perfume (mixed with another, less expected fragrance). My favorite vanilla perfumes are: Laura Mercier Vanille, Solinotes Vanilla and I Profumi Di Firenze Vaniglia del Madagascar.

The Tik Tok trend and the way we’ve normalized scrolling the app for hours is alarming. Tik Tok videos aim to deliver little doses of dopamine or a type of virtual reality. It’s evil and distracting. The “high” one feels from scrolling the app is a lie, just like doing a bit of crack or heroin. Tik Tok is more harmful to our society and our minds than Instagram, because Tik Tok distances you from reality even more. But of course, there are some people who create great art on Tik Tok and I feel proud of those people.

I think most young people are afraid of hanging out with old people because the elderly can be depressing and I really get that. I have had the pleasure of being close friends with my grandparents, and I practice speaking to them the way I would speak to a fellow young person. Close proximity to decades of memories and wisdom stored inside an elderly friend, can provide a profound sensation of awareness in one’s everyday life. I think that older people are similar to children in that they just want to be treated as equals. Once they are treated like equals, they are a pleasure!
