Favorite Hair products of 2011

So i have been MIA for a little while. Truth is settling into DC has not been an easy adjustment for me. I've lived on my own (with roommates for part of the time) for almost nine years! I finished up my LAST semester in school and I was pulling 50 hour work weeks at some points. I was supposed to be in a bigger place now, but all the houses have fallen through. I was hoping 2012 would be when i could start video blogging, but that will have to wait a bit longer to when i'm not living in my closet haha. The room is tiny so it pretty much is my closet with a bed in it.

But anyways onto bigger and better things! Here are the hair products i could not live without in 2011. If music has a whole genre associated with hair, it's obviously a big deal!

1. Moroccan Oil

This has been my hair savior for quite some time now. I have naturally curly/frizzy/wavy hair. This is the best product, put about a dime size amount in my hair and i can blow dry it straight with minimal need for a flat iron (only need it when i'm in a SUPER humid place or if i know i'll be in a sweaty type environment, like going to a concert) Although it may be pricey a bottle usually last at least a year for me, therefore cost per use is actually rather cheap given the results.

2. Macadamia Nut Deep Repair Masque

I've used a variety of deep conditioners over the years and this is one of my favorites. It really does help the health of your hair which is super important when you have chemically treated or highlighted/bleached hair. It's great.

3. Macadamia Nut Leave in Conditioner

This is another product that I found and loved in 2011. I often get dry ends after a day without washing my hair. As you know you shouldn't wash your hair everyday! So in order to keep from washing my hair as often i use this on my mid shaft all the way down to my ends to keep my hair looking and feeling healthier.

4. Got2b Rockin' it Dry Shampoo

This combined with the last product are my no wash lifesavers. I use this at my roots to keep my hair from being oily looking.

5. Got2b Smooth Operator Hair Spray

This has to be my favorite. I'm not a fan of sticky hair spray, i used to not wear hairspray at all. I use this when I have an event and need a little bit more staying power to keep my hair straight and in line. It also helps take out any frizz if it's a problem.

6. Redken All Soft Shampoo and Conditioner

I have been using this stuff for years on and off. It really does exactly what is says. It makes hair super soft and manageable.

There are many more products that i use but these are the ones i can't seem to live without! Hope everyone is enjoying the long weekend!
