Something I get asked more often than I’d ever expect is what products do you use in your hair? I used to have some serious hair envy going on growing up. My high school best friend had amazing hair. And I was always the girl that chopped her hair to chin length when it’d finally grow down to her shoulders because I’d crave change. What can I say.
But ever since I was traumatized with a bad haircut just after J and I got married, I’ve had long hair. And y’all. I’ve struggled. I have naturally wavy/curly/unruly hair. It’s fine in texture but I have a lot of it. And if you don’t believe me, let me invite you over when I clean out the shower drain with a hanger (because who ever remembers to buy a drain snake?) once a month. ew gross. My hair was dull, frizzy, and just generally not cute.
I’ve dropped too many dollar bills on fancy, expensive products that really didn’t do much for me except make me broke. Several years ago, my Aunt sent me samples of a Garnier Fructis product she’d been loving. I was hesitant to try it because in the past their products would weigh my hair down and left it greasy at the roots.
But the Garnier Fructis Hydro Recharge is the only shampoo and conditioner I consistently go back to. It leaves my hair weightlessly clean, voluminous, and silky soft. It also helps me extend the time between washes. Plus, it’s stinking cheap and easy to find.
Most of the time I just wash my hair at night, rub in some of the leave in cream, and go to bed with wet hair (don’t judge me). But if I’m actually styling my hair, I’ll spray in some thickening treatments and a layer of heat protectant for good measure.

I like that these don't break the bank either! Thanks for the tips!
Link this up with Jessi and I today!
Going to definitely try this shampoo and conditioner!
I totally go to bed with wet hair all the time too, but I've never tried the leave-in overnight…thanks for the tip!
I just took a screen shot of all the products. I'm going to Target to get coffee and fight with the pharmacy soon, so I'm just going to buy all of them. Can you have too many hair products when you live in a 200 sq ft travel trailer? No stinkin' way!!!
Mini Target hair product haul pictures to come >> twitter stay tuned lol
I'll have to try the leave-in overnight! I have Garnier's root volume booster something or other, and it is wonderful! Va-va-voom hair, for sure 😉
I just started using this stuff and am a big fan! It's so inexpensive and it works really well for me, too. Your hair looks great so it's nice to know that someone else is as big of a fan as I am 🙂
Your hair is gorgeous ♥♥

haha i always go to bed with wet hair! no shame. i love garnier's shampoo and conditioner but have never tried the leave in cream, or the thickening lotion. i'll have to check them out, especially because there is a coupon right now at kroger for buy 3, save $3. why not! your hair seriously always looks amazing, so major hair envy over here!
Your hair is so pretty! I go to bed with wet hair like 95% of the time so I can relate. We have a garnier shampoo at my parents house that I tend to use when I go home and it always smells so good!
Your hair looks fantastic! I have fine hair too, and used to have a LOT of it.
Your hair is BEAUTIFUL! I recently cut off 11 inches because I needed change and now I'm wishing I had my precious hair back!
Your hair is gorgeous!
Gorgeous hair! I need to try that Pantene fullness spray 🙂
That beret is adorable! However, LOVE those booties!!!!! I have serious bootie envy, cannot seem to find what I want!
Girl your hair is GORGEOUS, garnier has never worked for my hair *cue emoji sad face* But you're making me sooo jelly it doesn't!

Gorgeous hair! No wonder you get asked about it!
You have gorgeous hair!
Yeah I cut my hair to my shoulders right before I graduated high school (it was almost at my hips) and I am still recovering from that "mistake." I always grow out my hair so long and then one day I tell myself "oh it's time for a change" and then I regret it right after. Haha… I need to just stick to long hair!
Beautiful! My hair is very thick and wavy, and I like to keep it long, too! I ALWAYS wash my hair at night and go to bed with it mostly wet. I mean, it's not DRIPPING wet or anything. lol I don't like using time to blow dry it, and if I blow dry it, I have no choice but to straighten or curl it ALL. Because of my hair's natural wave, going to bed without drying it allows my hair to dry in its natural state. Then I maybe have to curl a few pieces in the front around my face to make it presentable to the world. 🙂
Love your hair. I cannot stand Fructis Shampoo or Conditioner. it always makes my hair go crazy and greasy. I have tried it all. However, I will give the thickening lotion a try. Sounds like something my hair could need.
