My Current Hair Care Routine 2020!

What'S up, you guys welcome back to my channel so for today's video i have a haircare routine and i feel, like i've, been promising this video for months, but it's finally here um. I really kind of wanted to perfect my hair care routine and i feel like i have it down packed i've been using this exact routine for the last few months and i just feel like it's everything. First off. I just want to say i need my nails done, really bad, so we're not going to judge. I also used a different uh tanner for the first time like a clear lotion and i actually really like it but of course, when using a new product, there's some learning curves. So please so in this video. I'M going to share with you guys my hair care routine, mainly like what i do in the shower shampoo that i use masks that i use all of my little tips and tricks, and i'm also going to quickly give you guys a little color update, because i Have had literally so many comments so many questions, so many dms from you guys asking like what is your hair color and also asking me an update on how i got my hair to this brown color, because if you guys follow me and you're an og subscriber, Then you saw the mess of what was me trying to get my hair from black to brown at home on the vlog channel, and it was like a whole situation and i really messed up my hair before we get into the video. I do want to mention that this video is sponsored by teami, so huge shout out to them. I'M going to share with you guys two products that have absolutely just been a game changer for me and really helped keep my skin clear throughout the week. So i'm gon na go ahead and play the little clip now and share those products with you guys: okay, so really quickly. I'M gon na share with you guys these products i've been obsessed with by team. This is the super food cleanser before we get into it. Actually, let me just show you guys my skin close up. I have not washed my face yet. Obviously what i love about this cleanser is: it is 100 clean. It'S cruelty free, it's very nutrient, dense, so there's so many amazing things in it like matcha, apple sea kelp. I feel like it takes out all of that dirt and grime out of my pores. If you're like me - and you suffer from a lot of blackheads and clogged pores you're going to love this, i've noticed a huge difference. Now we're gon na go ahead and use um the teami detox mask you guys. This is absolutely incredible. I have used so many masks and i just feel like a lot of them are really gimmicky. They don't really have the powerful ingredients that'll be able to really take the impurities out of your pores. So i absolutely love this. It'S made with organic matcha green tea. There'S clay in here there's lemongrass. There are so many great ingredients in here that are really going to take the impurities of your skin and not to mention that it actually has a nice really light scent too, like it's hard to describe. But it's a nice light scent like i've used masks in the past that just have a very harsh scent and it's almost just like uncomfortable to even use. So i love the texture of this. I love the scent and it's just been a lifesaver throughout the week. This is good once a week to kind of do like mini facials in between it's just perfect. It'S like a facial at home, like i mentioned before, um, just to make sure that i can keep my skin clear. It has been 15 minutes, i'm just going to awkwardly get close to the camera here. Um, as you can see like look at all of the little you can see. It really went into the pores. It'S like satisfying to watch but disturbing as well, because you can just see how many pores you have, and it's just like. Oh my god. So you just really know that the mask is gon na get in there and take out all of those impurities from your pores and obsessed. So now, i'm gon na use lukewarm water never use hot and just rinse it off yeah. So that is pretty much it. You guys, like i said i do this about once a week, just as like a little mini facial, you guys are interested. You can use my code misedo 25 to get 25 off, which i think is an amazing deal. I'M going to go ahead and leave the link in the description box down below. So if you guys are not interested in my color update, because i'm going to give you guys a color update right now, if you're not interested in hearing about that - and you just want to get right into the hair care routine, then i'm going to leave a Time stamp on the screen - and you can skip this part and just get right into the haircut routine, so yeah color update a lot of you guys have been asking me what color is my hair. This is my natural hair color. You guys i have not dyed or colored my hair in literally two years um. The last time was like october 2018. In between that time i have gotten my hair toned once at the hairdresser like a year ago, but that is completely faded. It'S like a semi-toner! So this is all pretty much my natural hair color up until like about here. Ish um and i do have leftover color still like at the bottom. So half of my head is natural and half is the um color that i used, which is crazy, because the color that i used actually ended up really matching my natural hair color, which is, i wasn't even trying to do that? Wasn'T intentional at all. So the color that i last dyed, my hair, because i know a lot of you guys want to know um in october 2018 i colored my hair with the ion 5ag permanent hair color and honestly, it is the most beautiful hair, color ever absolutely love, and it Is a bit darker than this just warning! You guys um, but it faded to this color after, like a few washes it fades to this brown color and then a lot of you want an update on how i was able to finally reach my goal of getting this brown hair color from my black. I pretty much tried to dye my hair or bleach my hair at home from black to brown, and i really didn't educate myself enough. I really didn't do enough research, so i ended up messing up really bad that i had to bleach my hair three times. A lot of my hair honestly fell off, like i literally had chunks of my hair that were just completely gone. My hair was really really bad, really dry and damaged so yeah. I had to bleach my hair all over again and i realized that the key is. If you want to go from black to brown hair, then you have to get your hair light enough so that when you put a brown hair color, it isn't so red um brown tends to have a lot of red tones, so that was kind of the mistake. I made at first i didn't lighten my hair enough. I bleached my hair down to like a level six to be honest with you level, six like blonde like a darker blonde, and then on top of that i went ahead and put the ion 5ag. Basically, when you tone your hair, it has to be the same level or at least one darker to be able to tone. You can't tone your hair with a color that is lighter, it's not going to work so because i wanted this like level five brown hair. I bleached my hair to a level six and then i used a level five and that really helped to tone as well as give me that brown color so yeah, that's pretty much it. That was like the rule of thumb that i really learned. I am not gon na lie to you guys. My hair is not perfect, it's not perfectly toned at all. I still have like this leftover bleached tones that just really come through and they do look orangy, but i have found a toning shampoo that does really work. Also, i know i've mentioned this in the past, but this is like major key and some people get shocked when i say this, but i only wash my hair once a week. I know some of you guys are gon na cringe when i say that, but it is perfectly clean and healthy to do that. I'M telling you you are damaging your hair by washing it every day or even every other day. Basically, what's good about it is those oils and grease greasy hair that your hair produces yeah it sucks, because you don't really get to wear your hair down, but your hair needs those natural oils that it produces. So honestly, it's really healthy for your hair. So i highly recommend that so yeah, if you guys, want to see my hair care routine and how i keep my hair super healthy and how i repaired it from being so bleached and damaged. Then definitely um continue watching so to start off. These are my shampoo and conditioners that i've been absolutely obsessed with. This is the function of beauty know this video is not sponsored. Yes, they sent this out to me like almost a year ago. Actually now and as you guys can see, i'm out of the bottle. I'Ve been really loving this stuff, it is so good. It lasts lathers up really nicely it cleans my hair um after not washing my hair for six days. I need a shampoo. That'S really gon na help clean, and this does the trick. It also smells amazing, so i've just been really loving this. So of course, i'm just rinsing out. All of that shampoo. I do tend to just shampoo the roots and mid parts of my hair. I do not shampoo the ends and then this shampoo has been really helpful to tone my hair and get rid of that brassiness. So, like i mentioned, i still have some leftover bleached hair at the bottom, so the brassiness really comes through and um. This one is so good you guys. This is like the first dark green um toning shampoo that i have found if you have dark hair like me, this is going to be really helpful. I'M not going to lie to you guys and say it's like magic and it erases all of the red tones, but it does help to tone it down a little bit. If you are like me - and you want to tone down the red tones in your hair, then make sure to get a green shampoo like the one that i'm using right now. But if you have orange tones in your hair, then get a blue shampoo. Okay, this mask is absolutely incredible, so i popped this one up on the screen, because the one i put on the screen is the one i've been using for years and love, but i thought they changed the packaging. So when i went to go repurchase it i purchased the wrong one. Now, the one i'm using is actually still really good. It'S the nourishing mask, but my ultimate favorite that i've been using for years is the deep repair mask regardless. Not to confuse you guys, i will link the correct one down below, but hands down. This mask is exactly what saved my hair and repaired my hair and made my hair healthy again after bleaching. It is everything it's incredible. I use it every single time i wash my hair, so i make sure to leave the mask on for at least five minutes, but ideally i try to do 10 minutes and then i forgot to mention for the toning shampoo. I leave on for at least three to five minutes and now i'm just putting conditioner only on the ends of my hair and i didn't get a clip. But of course i rinsed out the conditioner. So this is really random, but i wanted to show you this cleaning tip use this little squeegee after you wash your hair to remove all of the soap splashes on the glass and you will have a clean shower. It only takes like an extra 10 to 15 seconds to do at the end of your shower, and this is my little trick for keeping my glass shower clean, okay, so i'm out of the shower now i have my hair up in a towel. I wanted to mention how important it is for you guys not to rub your hair in the towel. Like i see, sometimes people will go like this and rub their hair. You definitely don't want to do that, because that does cause more damage on your hair, and it also makes your hair more frizzy. So don't rub your hair um. If you want to dry it, you can just kind of like scrunch it like pat it. I'M actually really feeling this hair look. What do you guys think? Okay, i actually really like this look at these natural waves. For those of you who don't know my natural hair is wavy um, not as like crimpy and wavy. As this it's more like a beachy wave, i actually like my natural hair, but okay. So the first thing i will do is brush my hair. These are like my go to brushes, slash, combs um, i like to part my hair in a middle part, so i will always take this type of comb. I actually have um i'm gon na try to link this one too, but i have one linked on um. Amazon for you guys on my amazon shop, just go to the description box and i linked one there um. You can also get it at sally's beauty supply, but i just really like it because of the like really pointy tip. You can get a really precise parting and i will do that to make sure it stays and then to make it easier. I will brush my hair in two parts and you guys will see how easy look how easy my brush goes through my hair and that's literally because of that hair mask. I am not joking. When i ran out of the hair mask, i didn't use any when i showered, and i cannot tell you my hair that week it wasn't as healthy. It wasn't horrible, obviously, because i have pretty healthy hair now, but it just wasn't as soft and when i went to brush my hair. There were like a few tangles, whereas with this, when i use the mask look - and let's do this side, there's a little bit of resistance, but that's it like bam. Just goes right through, like i love that hair mask it really just like detangles. Your hair makes your hair so soft, so silky. If there's anything, you guys need to get from this hair care routine. It is that hair mask like hands down, i'm not joking. It is the best since we're letting our hair air dry. This is like the easiest part of my hair hair routine. I love it because it's so simple and so easy. I don't need to blow dry my hair. The reason why i started air drying. My hair was because i really started trying to minimize the amount of heat that i use on my hair, obviously, heat damage and all of that and i've noticed the difference since i have stopped blow drying my hair. So this has been my go-to product. This is the bumbling bumble, hairdresser's, invisible oil. If you look on sephora, this has really good reviews, and i asked you guys on instagram if i should buy it before. I did and a lot of you said yes, it also is heat and uv protective. So it's going to protect your hair um tomorrow when i go and straighten my hair, i will have this heat protectant in it, so i will just take a few whoa. Oh my god, that literally went in my eye jesus. Let'S take a few sprays on each side really make sure i get the ends as well and then that's it. So i will put some hair oil in my hair. While it is wet um, you guys will see tomorrow when i show you how i straighten my hair, that i love the whey hair oil. This is so weightless i'll talk about it in the next clip. But, oh my god, it's so good, but i have this one still left over and i love this one. It'S really good! I just love how like weightless this one is, but i still have to use this up so regardless. I just put a good hair oil in just like about that. Much like not a whole whole lot, because i don't wan na overdo it, because i'm gon na put more when i style my hair like straighten it. So i will run it through the ends and it's really easy when your hair is already brushed out and parted in the middle, because you can really make sure you're spreading the product. Good and yeah, just honestly focus it on the ends. If you have layers make sure to get all over once you have like leftover products on your hands, you can go around the rest of your hair, but do not go to the roots. So now, for the rest of the day, i will leave my hair down. Let it air dry, okay, you guys, so it is the next morning - and this is my hair. When it has just air dried mind you i did, keep it obviously in a bun while i was sleeping, so it normally wouldn't be this like curly and bouncy. So i always get asked what straightener i use, and this has been my favorite for years. You guys i have been using this for, like i think, four or five years now um. I do think that they are they discontinued. This exact model, like i think they upgraded um and made a new model, so i will link the new model down below and now honestly, i will just run the straightener through my hair quickly. Like again, i don't need to make it perfect because i actually want it to just be a nice natural straighten so that my hair doesn't get too flat um throughout the week. So a trick that i will do is um on the ends of my hair. I will take it and just curve the straightener in slightly, and it makes your hair a little bit more movable and just a little bit more natural. This straightener heats up so so fast and it gets my hair done so fast like you can see. I'M taking like the hugest thickest piece of hair ever like i'm taking half my head literally passing through it, and it's already almost done. I just need one more pass through the front here and bam. You have a natural straighten. Obviously, if you want a sleek straighten, you do need to do smaller sections, but the fact that it's straight into that thick piece of hair is crazy and then just curve the ends. Okay, so another trick that i do. I get asked a lot. How i maintain or um keep my flyaways down, so here's a little trick that i do so take it and push it down and the way that you're going to push it down is you're going to like curve your straightener and really push it. You pretty much just want to manipulate the way that your hair is laying all right, and then that is straightened now so now what i will do, i'm going to show you a few of my staple products. So this is the um whey, hair oil. It is the best hair oil i have ever used. It'S super super fine, like i don't know if you guys can tell, but it's almost like water. It does not weigh your hair down at all, oh and it smells like a dream. So i literally will take the tiniest little bit and i will just run it through the ends to the middle of my hair literally. I cannot explain enough. This literally feels like water like it's so so so thin, and i love that because it's not thick, it's not greasy. It makes your hair smell amazing then, for the top, i will use the whey matte pomade. So this is matte. It is not going to leave the top of your hair um, your roots, greasy at all, so you're, going to take some on your fingertips and again only use a little bit and kind of work. Your way up, if you feel like you, need more and then you can look at that, no flyaways, you can push down those flyaways, and that is it you guys. That is how i keep my hair shiny and just bouncy silky healthy hair. You wouldn't even know that i completely ruined it two years ago with
