In this video, I share the top 10 items that have been crucial during my first week of recovery. If you're preparing for surgery, I'd highly reccommend getting these items.

72 hours ago I had no clue how Derek Jaxn was... but I love relationship shenanigans and Derek Jaxn's latest cheating scandal was a hot mess. I hopped on IG Live with a few friends to discuss.

Why You Need Melanin Haircare's Multi-Use Softening Leave In Conditioner

One thing that thrived in 2020 was my hair.  I perfected my wash 'n go (nowhere), experimented with more blonde color, and tested new products. One product that blew me away and instantly became a holy grail was Melanin Haircare's Multi-Use Softening Leave In Conditioner. 

It retails for $18.99 on their site (and Ulta) and currently has a purchase limit of 3 bottles... which may seem like a lot, but I swear once you try this product you'll be obsessed and wanna stockpile more. Also note that there are times they're sold out, so it's not the worst idea to stock up. 

Recently Melanin Haircare featured me on their IG and while I would LOVE for this post to be sponsored lol, it's definitely not. I bought all products with my own money and genuinely love the way it works.

Have you tried Melanin Haircare yet?
