To the people who know someone who likes to use a lot of heat to achieve a specific look, using constant heat can be very damaging for your hair, which can lead to breakage, which is a NO-GO! This Christmas, by them, the Dyson air wrap to help them protect their luscious locs.

Over the last half a decade, i’ve come to embrace my curly hair and have garnered some ritualistic practices when it comes to my hair. here are some things I wish I would’ve known sooner, see photo for credibility:
- DO NOT use Shea Moisture, it’s waxy and will build up. Of course it’s different for everyone(particularly people with Black hair), I just find that line of products to be too heavy, and it leaves my hair looking dull.
- I genuinely like john frieda’s frizz-ease line for frizz, but the best thing you can do to combat frizz as previously mentioned, is apply a generous amount of leave-in conditioner after styling products.
- I prefer to plop for 10-20 minutes(put my hair in a t-shirt headwrap) and air dry after that. I’ve gotten the best volume and styling results with this method.
- If you can’t afford the good stuff(like that fancy K18 or Davine’s stuff my hair dresser wants me to use) splurge on a good mask. I use a nice mask once a week to remove and buildup from the week before and it leaves my hair feeling refreshed!
- Broken record i’m sure but get a hair dryer! I was hair-dryer-averse for many years and recently got one to help with volume. It takes me maybe 5-10 minutes and my hair ends up looking incredible!

First, make sure your products work for your hair texture and type— fine or thin hair may get overloaded with lots of product, so start with less, add as needed.
I use Prose— I like the custom products, the hard water and air pollution checks, and the option to go silicone free. I use a pre-shampoo mask, shampoo, and conditioner, and I have a leave in conditioner for when I heat dry (I try to do this sparingly, a few times a month). The important thing about wash products is really that you like them, you use them, and that they work for your hair type— doing a little research, or getting sample sizes of products to try out, can really support your wash routine.
In winter, I wash twice weekly, in summer I wash as needed (after exercise/swimming, etc.)
Overnight, I use a heatless curl rod— it’s like a low maintenance plait, it’s easy to sleep in, and it minimises heat styling and breakage. I don’t use hair spray or styling products— I find they weigh my hair down and make it necessary to overwash, which strips/dries hair.
Briefly:
1. Avoid heat styling, and use protectants+low heat if you do
2. Try silicone free soaps, that work for your hair type
3. Try heatless and protective styling
4. Be consistent, give it time

Calling all friends or relatives of coffee lovers! Imagine how much money your relative/friend spends on a day-to-day basis buying coffee from the shops. Instead of watching them waste their money to let other people make their coffee, buying them a coffee machine will help them cut down costs which will not only benefit them but will give them even more of a reason for them to buy you a nicer gift for the holidays.

I think that noise cancelling head phones are an absolute essential at this point. I think this gift, would be perfect for a college student. We are constantly on the move and are nine times out of ten being put in very noisy situations in which makes it difficult to focus and finish assignments. So with noise cancellation headphones, they would be able to focus anywhere, anytime.
