He'S gon na do it back in december, i cut my hair through the nyc on that cheap airfare divacup, with the scissors had me shaking in my chair about two inches going short hair. Don'T care six months later, you can call me rapunzel, hair stores, begging me back to buy the bundles. I told them they gon na have to really chill without that cause we'll on the wind coming through our hair hacks, let's get into it hack, numero number, one: hey yo, your dream is choking yo your drain is choking says it can't breathe, and it's your fault Because your hair is slipping and sliding down the drain, like it's a water slide at hershey park, so there's sort of like three hacks here, one you can get a drain stopper or a hair catcher. I talked about this a few times. We ain't gon na spend too much time on this. It'S a real, simple thing: i have this silicone one, you just pop it in your drain. It catches all of the hair and you pull it out and you clean the little silicone thing off and then boom. You ain't got to call the plumber which, but what if my drain is already clogged, what do i do? Okay, hack number two, so many people, for whatever reason, don't know about drain snakes, calm down it ain't an actual snake drain. Snakes are these things they're about two feet, long, that you stick down your drain and then you pull it back up and all of the hair or anything that's stuck in your drain, gets caught and removed on these hooks, it's perfect for hair and i know a Lot of y'all out there taking those bath showers, you know what i'm talking about those bad showers where there's like a two inch puddle of water in your bath, while you're taking a shower, get you a drain snake, it saves lives, especially with curly hair hack number. Three is for people who don't want to get a drain stopper or two. They don't want to be snaking up their drains. Detangle, your hair, but you can do it kind of in a smarter way in terms of getting all the hair out with a brush or a comb. You kind of can comb your hair out or brush your hair and all of the hair gets stuck in the brush and you can remove the hair from the brush and you can toss it in the trash. But when your finger detangling in the shower as the hair collects on your hand, just take it rub your hands do just like that. Do just like that says: rub your hands in a circular motions together, just like that and it'll form a perfect cute little hair ball that you'll be able to sit on the side of your bathroom ledge and dispose of when you exit the shower. This is one of my favorite hacks, because it makes me feel like a magician putting on a show for nobody, but it's fun hack, number, five um, throw all your hair products away. What what is he talking about after the expiration date, hair products, because they're chock full of nutrients and because, when you put the lid on them, their dark and moist environments are very good environments for bacteria. So typically formulas will include preservatives and antimicrobials to sort of prevent that issue, but those things only last for so long on the back of most products you'll actually see a little symbol. That tells you how many months, typically or even years, that your product is good for post opening it. So, for example, this one is good for 18 months, take a mental note of when you open the product or take a sharpie and write the date underneath the cap or somewhere on the bottle. That way, you have a date by which you can measure how long you should keep your product hack number six, the trims, the trims, the trims are absolutely worth it go to a professional like literally go to somebody who's been trained in trimming hair, who has the Best shears and all that stuff to cut your hair, it is worth the investment. When i got my hair cut back in december, i saw my hair immediately spraying back to life. Getting rid of all those dead ends means getting rid of also lots of tangles lots of frizziness a whole bunch of things that just don't make your hair, nice and bouncy and moisturized. Also, it gives you a little bit of piece of shape for the hair. Okay, now, if you yourself can cosplay as ever scissors hands and trim your own hair without looking like you ran it through a cheese grater, then all the power to you. I personally just realized that i am not that good at it. So hack number seven is when you can work in sections do so i get so triggered when i see people just get some product and they just go like this. I'M like girl scout girl stop right now with natural hair. It really pays to have a haircare routine that is geared towards cleaning and moisturizing each individual hair strand. Now you ain't got ta. Do it one strand by stand because i'll die and come back before you be finished with your hair? But what i like to do is just work in sections. I typically work with my right and my left side as two separate sections, but it depends on the thickness of your own hair, whether you want to do two sections, four sections, ten sections. However, many sections you need, i used to have parts of my head where the hair was like breaking off more than other parts, and i was kind of wondering like why that was happening and it's kind of because i wasn't paying attention to all of the hair. On my head, when i was putting product in so if you're dealing with that, i would say be gentle first of all, but also work in sections and be thorough, hack number. Eight um, you woke up angry at the world and i get it okay. I really do i'm still mad at apple for taking away the earphone jack and making me buy 150 airpods. But why does this matter well, you're stressed and typically when you're stressed and frustrated, you don't take care of your hair gently, you're more likely to just rip through a knot if you're detangling your hair, more likely to take those shortcuts that do nothing but a disservice To your hair, so this one is more of a woosah but make sure that you're in a good mental space when you come to take care of your hair, try to set up like an intention behind doing your hair. So, throughout the day or even throughout the week, i'll be like. Oh my god, i can't wait for sunday, i'm just going to like have a me day. I want to sit and i'm going to take care of my hair and i sort of get into that mental space or prepare myself for the moment so that i can meet my hair on a good note versus being like. Oh, my god, like i, have to do this hair. I'Ve got no time for it, but i'm gon na get it done approaching your hair care as self-care does a lot for the health of your hair. I like to set up my space real chill i'll. Have my netflix out, while i'm doing my hair, maybe a little drink drink to the side, just a moment for me to have to myself like every sunday, you should try it out. Okay, hack, number, nine clip your dinosaur nails, clip them round. You'Re serving me cat nails, your nails will most, certainly not if you buck snag. If you drag pulling out your hair strings unnecessarily, just cut your nails, that's like one of the simplest hacks out there and it has one of the biggest effects get on it. Hack number 10 is fiber now. Why does this? Why? Why does why you talk about this well fiber, but also just better nutrition overall, making sure that you're getting foods with also biotin in it things like that, will help. You extract all the nutrients from your food. So that you can actually use those nutrients to build your body, so if nutter butters is what you ate for dinner last night, make sure you start the acid veggies, okay girl get into the veggies, maybe get a supplement. I like doing supplements. I have a fiber supplement that i use every single day in a smoothie and i feel like it really does help with my skin my hair, my nails hack, number 11.

I usually wear them because it keeps the all the hair out of my face ain't. Nobody got time for that, but the larger circumference of the hair tie does make your puff look larger, and so, if that's something you're into, i would say that this hack is for you hack, number, 14. The last hack is to use your eyes people when you're in the hair care aisle. Okay, the little itty bitty ethnic hair care section way in the back. Cute packaging is cool, but make sure you look at what's inside them, products like with maui moisture. They have aloe vera as the first ingredient, so turn the bottles over and see what ingredients are in there. If you know that your hair doesn't like glycerin or if your hair doesn't like silicone or whatever it is just don't use it.
