Hey, y’all! Welcome to another edition of A. McLain Blog! Today we are going to be talking about all things HAIR! This past year, my hair has been through a whole lot of issues and a lot of changes! Let’s walk down memory lane, shall we!
OCTOBER 2018
This was the beginning of October! I had chopped my hair off early last year and started to get highlights during the summer to add to the natural highlights that I already had. Then later that month I decided to do something radical! I dyed my hair darker for Fall! The idea was spurred by my mother actually because her natural color is actually slightly darker than mine. So with that in mind, I asked Megan, my hairstylist, to switch it up!
So then I switched to dark! Let me tell you Megan killed it with her coloring skills! She has continued to kill it too as we have touched up my color every so often! I don’t think I will ever go back to my natural color.
JANUARY 2019
So fast forward to January and I decided to make another change again to not only have long hair but to help my hair become healthier again. I decided to try a lengthening set of Hot Head Extensions.
So after this, my hair started to get wayyyy more healthy. I started noticing it not only with the heat going on my extensions rather than my hair when I styled it but also from the products that I was using.
When I had my extensions put in, to make them last longer, Megan suggested that I start using Oribe Split End Seal. Let me be the first to tell you that I don’t know how I lived without this stuff! It did wonders for not only my extensions but my own hair as well.
Now, I am back to my own natural hair, nothing fancy, but I am still growing it out to the length that I had it at before I cut it all off. The products that I use now are the ones below. I absolutely love all of them and I use them in a combination to have the best hair that I possibly can! One thing is for sure is that without them my hair is flat as a board!
I will do a whole hair routine video soon so be on the lookout for that!
