Today's Prescription: My Favorite Wash Day Products
Happy Hump Day fabulistas! I'm trying super hard to get over this hump today. This week is flying and dragging along all in the same breath. I'm still enjoying my internship, but I'd be lying if I said I wasn't missing my family, friends, and my dog. My sister continues to send me pictures and videos of my dog so it's helping. I'm hoping he's not a problem child when I get back lol. Good new is though, my boyfriend is coming to visit me next week! Eeeeeekkkk. I'm like company, finally! I have so much planned, and I'm super excited for the fourth of July. :)
As ya'll know, I'm 10 months into the full blown natural thing, and I'd be lying if I said I'd found the perfect product for my hair. A lot of them seem to do the same thing-either they work, or they don't. I'm also super big on "wash and cowash day," and yes I deep condition. My hair is no good with build up and I itch just thinking about going too long without cleansing my scalp.Of course when using products, you have to switch it up because your hair is like an immune system, it gets used to the same things being put in your body. Today I wanted to highlight some of my favorite products to use for those hair days specifically. I'd love it if you guys shared some of your favorite wash and cowash day products!
I love ya'll, stay fab!
XOXO,

Taliah Waajid 2-in-1 System: Now this is a mix of a lot of products that I may or may not use on wash day. I love the Conditioning Co-Wash on my cowash days. It leaves my hair strong, and my curls popping. Following the co-wash, I put the leave in on my hair to get it ready for styling. I like to use these two products before I throw on one of my wigs. SN: These are made for Type 3 hair, but they do what they can for my Type 4 hair.
Shea Moisture African Black Soap Deep Cleansing Shampoo & Conditioner: I like Shea Moisture products for the most part. Some work for me, some don't. This duo is for those who suffer from skin conditions and dry, itchy scalp like me. I love it especially for after I take my protective styles to get rid of product build up.
Herbal Essence Hello Hydration Shampoo & Conditioner: Super cheap, but gets the job done! I am obsessed with this stuff. It smells like heaven too. I even use the conditioner to detangle my hair before I wash. If you want to get the job done, but don't want to break the bank, this is your product.
Trader Joe's Tea Tree Tingle Shampoo & Conditioner: I LOVE this duo! I started out using the conditioner as a cowash before I would get my protective styles in. This one is a go to for me because you can literally feel the product working your scalp, the "tingle" is not on the bottle for no reason.
