How I take care of my hair with VERB

by - 12:05 PM


I have a lot of hair... like a LOT! 
Dealing with it has always been a struggle - thick, wavy, frizzy. The perfect recipe for disaster in the heat of hotlanta! 

When I was younger I just wanted my hair to be long and flow but my mom would always chop it off because there was just TOO MUCH of it. The hairdresser would charge me for an adult cut! I literally had a coconut head for a good chunk of my life. 

I chose one of the better pictures for this one...


As I grew older I grew out my hair and nothing worked. No hair stylist, no hair product. It was a big frizzy mess.

Aaaaand this is where I expose myself 


Give up? I don't do that. I finally found someone who could at least cut my hair into the right shape and I haven't stopped going to see Erin at Urban Evolution ever since. CUTS ARE IMPORTANT! Y'all really don't know how much I love her... I even worked for her at one point. 

Despite the amazing cut, I still needed product that wasn't over the top expensive but I also didn't want to keep using whatever was on sale at the local drug store and didn't help my hair at all. I tried so much. My hair tends to get dry in addition to getting frizzy and when it gets dry, it breaks. My solution was argan oil but my hair sucked it all in and still wasn't hydrated. 

Then... I discovered VERB.  Quality products that don't cost any more than $16! Can you imagine? 
I tried it immediately and I was in love. They have something for everyone. 

My long thick waves look amazing with the extra little push my verb products give. Not only does my natural hair look great but I also don't have to use as much heat! Healthy hair is happy hair. 

Styled with Ghost Prep! 

I wash my hair about 3-4 times a week and mostly use the Sea Shampoo and the Sea Conditioner - It enhances my natural waves in addition to hydrating my hair + there's already added argan oil. With my busy schedule and my loads of hair, I can just air dry it and be on my way. For those days where I need a bit more hydration and shine, I use the Ghost Oil and when I want a little more volume and texture I use the Sea Texture Cream.

Heat is something ya can't avoid completely and my favorite heat protectant is the Ghost Prep - it helps with frizz and hydrates! An absolute blessing.

HAIR Q&A

You guys asked me some haircare questions and I will answer to the best of my ability with the knowledge I obtained while working at the hair salon! Remember, I am not a professional. 

How often to shampoo/condition hair if product is used everyday? I rinse everyday and wash every 3 days.
- If you use product every day, I would use a clarifying shampoo once a week to get all the product residue out that regular shampoo won't. Washing every three days sounds fine! 

What's the best way to help with frizzy hair?
- Add moisture! Dryness and humidity is the top case for frizz. HYDRATE!

Tips on staying away from split ends?
- Sometimes even brushing your hair aggressively when it's wet can cause split ends as can too much heat usage. Making sure you moisturize and protect your hair is always important. I'd recommend Verb's ghost line. 

Do you see a difference in the health of your hair once you stopped wearing hijab?
What to do for thicker hair on my scalp? I'm balding from my hair being in a bun all day cause of hijab.

How to make my hair look fuller?

How can I get healthy thick hair?
 I have very thick hair and after a year of wearing hijab, I felt like my hair was getting thinner. I started sitting out in the sun in my backyard without my hijab so I could let my hair breathe and absorb some vitamins. I also started mixing different oils together and making my own leave in treatment which really helped. I'd mix argan, castor, almond, coconut and olive oil together, heat it to really allow them to dissolve together, let it cool and apply it to my hair, that really helped me. 

If there's no time to do all that, the VERB Hydrating Mask would be a good option to leave in overnight, especially for hijabis.
