Ugh I know this feel. I have so many abandoned hair products that I keep around because “maybe I’ll need to use it if I run out of my regular stuff?” but that NEVER HAPPENS. I should just toss em.

My hair is not curly, but it’s wavy, coarse, dry, and EXTREMELY thick. It was a total life hack (sorry) when I learned from a stylist that I should use curly hair products because they are designed for that kind of texture. My hair has gotten so much better since I’ve switched to my current routine, which is:

Wash hair once per week with Bumble and Bumble Creme de Coco shampoo and conditioner

While damp, mix up some coconut oil and Moroccan Oil Intense Curl Cream in my hand and scrunch it into my hair

Let air dry

Finger-comb it daily

Do nothing else to it ever.

Also — Sephora and Ulta are totally generous about giving you samples of things before you buy.
