At-home hair care has never been more important than it has been the last few months. The last few months have shown me that sometimes it's the small things like feeling good about our hair that can help us get through challenging days. In an effort to preserve my cut and color while taking a longer than average break from my stylist I found choosing the right hair care products has been key. A good shampoo & conditioner, a really great deep conditioner and a break from damaging heat styling has helped tremendously.
For the last month I have been using Herbal Essences' Potent Aloe Collections that features sustainably harvested Aloe Vera. The Herbal Essences bio:renew collection contains real botanicals endorsed by the Royal Botanic Gardens, Kew so it's no surprise my hair has been feeling amazing lately. Not only does it feel great, it smells great too! Herbal Essences is the first-ever global hair care brand to have real botanicals endorsed by the Royal Botanic Gardens, Kew. Even being terribly overdue for a trim my ends feel good as new since the potent aloe ingredient works to protect my hair from damage.
I've simplified my styling routine big time these days. On the days I deep condition my hair with the Herbal Essences Coconut Milk + Aloe Hair mask, I usually let my hair air dry in a bun to avoid excess heat damage. This mask is sulfate free (so it's color safe), paraben free and certified PETA cruelty-free. It's scent is floral with coconut and it leaves my hair smelling like summer.
On days when I have Zoom calls or errands I have a new trick! I wash my hair with the Herbal Essences Potent Aloe + Hemp shampoo and conditioner. Then I blow dry my hair and simply curl four to five pieces on each side at the front only. It takes less than two minutes and gives a nice soft curl. It's like an ultra stylish stay-at-home mullet. Business in the front, casual in the back.
I'm always looking critically at the ingredients in my beauty products. That is why I was pleased to learn that Herbal Essences bio:renew Anti-Frizz Potent Aloe + Hemp Shampoo and Conditioner is verified by the strict safety standards of EWG (Environmental Working Group). The Potent Aloe collections are available at Walmart in stores and online, I highly recommend giving them a try!
