Good morning everyone! I get asked all the time what products I use on my hair. So, today I’m sharing my favorite products for good hair days. My hair is super curly and living in Florida challenges me to keep my hair looking in tip-top condition. I’m 47 and have some gray around my ears and a little near my forehead. I’ve been coloring my hair even before I had any gray hair, just because I thought my hair looked shinier with the hair color. So let me share my tips and tricks using my favorite hair products for good hair days.
COLOR I feel my hair is at it’s best after I color it. I color my hair about once a month at home using Loreal Preference in medium brown. I love this hair color, because it makes my hair look healthy and shiny.
WASH & LEAVE-IN PRODUCT I wash my hair about 2-3 times per week using Aussie shampoo and conditioner. After I wash my hair, I use It’s a 10, to help protect my hair when using heat from my hair tools. This is a leave-in product that’s very important when styling my hair. It’s a 10, has a ton of benefits, however the main reason I use it is to protect my hair from split ends and breakage. You only need to use a small amount.
HAIR TOOLS & HAIR OIL After I blowout my hair using my T3 hairdryer and Theorie flat iron, I apply a very small amount of Argan Magic Hair Oil. This oil helps smooth my hair and gives it more shine. It also smells amazing! I take it with me on all my trips too! I feel like it’s the icing on the cake!
HAIRSPRAY Recently, I ordered this Living Proof Hairspray and love that I can run my fingers through my hair after its applied. It’s not sticky at all and also smells great! It’s still a new product to me, however I’ve been very happy with the results I’ve seen so far!

My mother used to say that a woman’s hair is her crown and glory. I know that it’s somewhere in the Bible, and great hair is truly a beautiful gift my mother used to say that a woman’s hair is her crown and glory.

Ha ha! Thank you! I found a scripture! Gray hair is a crown of glory; it is gained in a righteous life. Proverbs 16:31 Amazing there’s a scripture for hair! Thank you Jesus! XO

I have naturally curly hair with frizz issues! Love to try different hair products and will have to try that It’s a 10! Lately I’ve been using the Deva Curl line. Your hair always looks so pretty!
desiree says
Thank you sweet Patricia! Same here, frizz issues especially in warm weather. Try it out and let me know wh at you think.
Alison says
I’ll definitely try the It’s a 10! Thanks!
desiree says
You’re welsome Alison! Let me know what you think after you try it. XO
Alison says
I really liked it! Tried it on a warm humid day, and my hair seemed a bit more manageable and less frizzy. I ordered the small trial size but will definitely get the larger size now that I know it works for my hair type! Thanks so much for the recommendation!

Living in Florida my hair is very fine, straight and gets flat! I will have to try some of the products you recommend. Your hair always looks great!
desiree says
Thank you Sandy. It’s amazing how everyone’s hair is so unique. Let me know what you think if you try them. XO

I use Aussie products too. I like their three minute miracle to deeply condition. My hair is on the dry side so I wash it three times a week and use a dry shampoo between if needed.
Merritt Beck says

Thanks for sharing! It’s good to know which products work, as I’m constantly looking up which products are rated the best. I color my hair as well (for the gray) and have had good luck with Revlon color silk in medium brown. Color lasts 3-4 months for me.

I ran across your website last week while looking for Spring outfit ideas and simply adored it! We have similar taste in clothes, shoes, etc. I love, love, the scriptures that are placed throughout your post.
Thanks for your hair care post. I am from Louisiana so your suggestions for taming the frizz and keeping hydrated hair to reverse the dehydration from flat ironing is so appreciated.
Have a Happy Thursday!
