Oops I Did It Again… and Again..and Again..

I’ve turned my head into a science experiment one bleach bath at a time, watched more strands slip into the sink than in my entire life, and somehow survived to tell the tale. If your hairline is receding faster than your patience with salon mishaps, welcome to my club!!

After at least one yearly meltdown, I finally nailed a routine that makes my hair grow faster and stronger than my impulse-control fails.

Every time I thought I could outwit my hair’s chemistry, my follicles fired back. Now I’ve swapped bleach-induced mayhem for a botanical brigade that leaves me with more strands than regrets 😏

My Foolproof Hair Resurrection Routine

Pre-Shampoo Ritual

• Garnier Fructis Hair Filler Bonding Inner Fiber Rinse Out Pre-Shampoo Treatment With Bond Repair Complex

Consider this the Swiss Army knife for damaged hair: it glues split ends and fortifies each strand before you ever hit the suds

Daily Cleansing Duo

• Kérastase Resistance Strengthening Shampoo for Damaged Hair from Heat Styling

• Rosy Locks Shampoo

Alternate between salon-grade science and my own rosy-scented baby hehe. The former rebuilds bonds, the latter powers my brand (and my personal vanity)

Daily Conditioner

• Kérastase Resistance Strengthening Conditioner for Damaged Hair from Heat Styling

Reinforcing every fiber with protein without weighing you down 💪🏻

Oils: The Holy Grail of Slip

• L’ANZA Keratin Healing Hair Oil Treatment

• Wild Growth Hair Oil

• Rosemary Hair Oil

• Dove Beauty Bond Shield Leave-In Silk Hair Serum

• Palmer’s Coconut Oil Formula Bonding Healing Oil

Each oil brings something unique✨

keratin rescue, hair-growth pep talk, scalp-soothing rosemary, silky silk, and tropical bonding vibes

Leave-Ins: Detangle & Protect

•Kérastase Nutritive 8H Magic Night Serum Hydrating Treatment

• It’s A 10 Silk Express Leave-In Conditioner

• Nexxus Humectress Leave-In Conditioner Spray (Biotin & Hyaluronic Acid)

• Beyond Botanix Fermented Herbal Onion Rice Water 2.0

The crew that detangles, plumps, and shields your tresses from another round of folly (or sun exposure)

Masks: Weekly Deep-Dive TLC

•K18 Leave-In Molecular Repair Hair Mask

• Vitale Olive Oil Hair Mayonnaise with Oat & Egg Protein

• Shea Moisture Jamaican Black Castor Oil Strengthen & Restore Treatment Masque

• Mielle Rosemary Mint Strengthening Hair Masque

• L’Oreal Paris Elvive Total Repair 5 Power Restore Multi-Use Treatment

• Silicon Mix Bamboo Nourishing Hair Treat

Rotate these like your favorite streaming shows: the proteins, oils, and herbal goodness bring my hair back from the brink faster than my next impulse-buy

The Secret Extras

• Sports Research Collagen Peptides, Unflavored

• Prenatal Vitamins

Sip collagen in your smoothie, pop your prenatal-even if you’re not pregnant! To flood your body with the building blocks your hair cells crave

Final Thoughts (and My Next Hair Capers)

Don’t let one bleach disaster ~ or 5 ~ stop you from having long, glossy hair that can survive your own whims! Embrace the bond-repair journey, build a cabinet of botanical knights, and vow (yet again) to treat your mane better than you treated that pastel turquoise phase

Stay tuned for my next post where I experiment with vintage-inspired headscarves to hide my early-morning bedhead. Until then, may your follicles be strong and your hare-brained ideas forever fabulous!!
