Hello beauties!

First of all: MERRY CHRISTMAS! I hope y'all are enjoying this holiday season :)
Today I would like to show you my 2021 favourite products that I've been using to take care of my hair.
I told you I wanted to start posting more about my hair journey, so if you missed my last post, you should check it because I share some important tips on how to boost your curls!

Before starting, I'd like to clarify that my type of curls are 3B/3C, in case you would like to check out these products!

1. Shampoo's
I've tried different shampoo's, but this is one of my favourites: Shea Moisture Raw Shea
I use it regularly, when I want a complete wash. As I have curly hair, I don't tend to wash my hair more than 2 times a week, as I really feel it doesn't need it.
But one or twice a month I use a clarifying type of shampoo to clean it more thoroughly. When I do that I use the Cantu Avocado shampoo, it works really well plus it smells amazing!




2. Conditioner
My favourite 2021 conditioner is the Tea Tree deep nourishing conditioner by Beauty Formulas. I discovered it through a tik tok where this girl was recommending it and when I actually checked it online it was sold out. Some months later I was shopping and I accidentally found it so I didn't hesitate in getting it! It's super affordable, it only costs: 1,50€. I really like how my hair looks after using it- even though it has a strong smell of tea tree oil (which doesn't really bother me) but if you don't like this smell then I would beware. Lots of people use it for co-wash as well :)


3. Hair Mask
The only one I've used is the Aunt Jackie's Butter Fusions Curl Spell Moisture Mask.
I have to say: this smells AMAZING! I can't even describe the smell but it's just incredible.
I use this mask usually once a month, when I feel my hair really needs a hydrating boost. I usually use it when I wash my hair with the clarifying shampoo, as this one is quite strong. If i want a deeper hydrating effect I put on a thermal hat for 10 minutes.
4. Leave in conditioner
My absolute favourite leave in conditioner is the Curls Blueberry bliss. During summer I tended to put on more quantity as I felt my hair needed to stay more hydrated. I use this one as my first step when it comes to style my hair.

5. Styling gel
Some people use styling foams, but I like to use styling gels. I've tried different ones but my favourite so far is the Camille Rose Lavender Extra Hold. This one is suuuper thick so I only use a small amount -I really like how my hair looks after using it. Also, it's a bit expensive, but it lasts for a really long time!

At the moment I'm trying new products (including a brazilian brand called Lola Cosmetics) - but it's too early to take conclusions as I need to use them more.
Have you tried any of these products that I mention?
What type of hair do you have?

Kisses!
