My Top 5 Hair Care Products
We’ve got some things we need to talk about, ladies! I was prepared for a lot when it came to giving birth and becoming a mom. I read the books, I knew the stroller to get, I stocked up on diapers. But, there are some things I was simply not ready for, like postpartum hair loss. Why do I feel like I never heard anyone else talking about that? I have been on the struggle bus with hair loss since having Mav. I’ve probably lost 30-40% of my hair. Sad story, but true. A lot of women feel really alone in this struggle because hello, who wants to sit around talking about losing their hair?! No one! And then we all feel like no one else is experiencing it, but we’re actually all going through it! It’s frustrating and when you’re taking a shower and you run your hand through your hair, trying to rinse, lather, repeat, but instead get a big ol’ clump of hair...it sucks!! Trust me, most women can relate, but it’s not a fun topic to talk about. Which is why we’re talking about it today!
One of my most asked questions is about what I’ve been using to combat this hair loss situation I’ve had going on, so I want to share what I’ve been using. Here are the five products I’ve been using for the past year now:
Olaplex
I use both Olaplex 0 and Olaplex 3 and will sleep in it the night before a wash. The 0 is an intensive bond building treatment, while the 3 is the “hair perfector” but is good for strengthening all hair types. Then, I also use the Olaplex bonding oil each day as a heat protectant.
This shampoo is EVERYTHING. Plus, it doesn’t strip your hair of the essentials. Just a quick tip though: make sure you rinse, rinse, rinse and rinse some more or else it’ll leave a build up.
Collective Laboratories Activating Serum
So good for scalp health! I love the combo of minerals and botanicals this serum uses. For the best results, I definitely recommend using it daily, too!
I love Vegamour’s holistic, 360 approach to hair growth. I’m here for it!! This hair serum is 100% plant-based and works so great with consistency!
I’m a big believer that wellness starts from within, and that includes hair wellness too, even though that’s only something we see on the outside!! Nutrafol is science-backed and was started by people experiencing hair loss too, so they just get it!
These five products have helped me so much. This has definitely been a journey I was not expecting to be on, but I know I am not alone! If you’re experiencing hair loss, I promise you, more women than you realize struggle with this. You are never alone!
