New Favorite Hair Treatment


Hi guys!
So, winter is quickly approaching and my skin and hair are getting dryer by the day it seems! I also need a haircut like CRAZY! Ever since I (regretfully) chopped my hair off last year I have been trying to grow it back and it's been a long and sometimes painful process! 
I explained in my October Favorites post that combing my hair when I get out of the shower has become a (literally) painful ordeal everyday. It is so freaking knotty that I am ending up with clumps of hair being pulled out! Ugh!!! 
I've found a leave-in conditioner and detangler by Not Your Mother's and that seems to help a lot! But, I still felt like my hair needed a little something extra to help sooth its split ends (which is what is causing the tangling and knots). Now, I have to be super careful about the hair products that I use because my hair is so thin and fine! Anything too heavy weighs it down and makes it look even flatter and more lifeless, not to mention ridiculously greasy! I try to stay away from oils because of more than a few traumatizing experiences in the past (lets just say you could have fried an egg on my greasy head)
I decided to get creative and used my OGX Nourishing Coconut Milk Split End Mender and mixed in a generous dropper full of Josie Maran Argan Oil Light! I rubbed the mixture between my palms to make sure it was well combined and then saturated the ends of my dry hair with it! I suppose you could do this with damp hair as well, but I felt like it would absorb better if it was dry. I could be wrong though! Once my ends were covered, I ran a comb through them just to make sure it was completely coated. I tied my hair into a loose pony tail and went to bed. 
The next morning I washed my hair like normal and then sprayed in just a little bit of the Not Your Mother's Way To Grow Leave-In Conditioner near the top of my head and started combing. Oh my god! My hair felt so good! The comb didn't rip my hair out for once! I let it air dry a bit and then blew it dry like normal and the end result was awesome! It felt super soft, silky, and was shinier than ever (in a good way, not a greasy one)! It looks and feels so much healthier and vibrant! 
This is definitely going to be a go to hair treatment for me from this point on! It works better than any deep conditioner, treatment, or product I have tried in the past! I'm in love! If you feel like your hair could use a little TLC definitely give this a shot!

As always, thanks for reading and I hope you all have a very happy Thanksgiving!! :)
