From hair products to a pandemic, how did I get here?

I recently moved to Hawaii to ride out the pandemic. It was kind of a last minute thing. I was forced to return home early from my yoga fueled journey of self-care and love in beautiful Bali in March. My lease was coming up in Tribeca, and while I will always consider New York City as my home, it no longer felt happy and warm. Perhaps I experienced too many days of blissful happiness in Bali working on inversions and opening up my chakras. But, I needed a change of pace desperately. My lease came up, and on a whim, I moved to Hawaii. I didn’t even have time to throw my belongings in storage. I did this process virtually, and I still don’t know if it went smoothly. However, I am now embracing the aloha spirit.

Island life

The downside to island life is that unlimited sun and swimming in the ocean several days a week takes a serious beating on your tresses. I have a lot of hair, but it is admittedly thin, and the saltwater is seriously dulling the shine and overall bounce. The bottom line is that my strands were looking a bit sad. So, I decided to go on a hair journey with Formulate to see if their hair products could restore the luster.

Coconuts for hair products

I’ve been using a personalized shampoo and conditioner that was created just for me (how cool is that?), and I’m really happy with the results. First off, Formulate smells of coconuts, so washing my hair is always a pleasure. Secondly, these hair products accomplished what I wanted. My hair is much more moisturized and is seriously shiny. I didn’t think I would see glossy locks again, but my hair is finally smoothing out.

Shiny hair

Additionally, my hair is less frizzy, and it just feels healthier. The blend of keratin and pumpkin seed oil with vitamin c feels like you are injecting superfoods directly into your hair. Real talk, my mane which is prone to split ends is incredibly healthy and looks fantastic. Formulate doesn’t use any sulfates, so it’s nothing but good vibes from this company. These hair products are just kind of awesome, and they are a must-have for any gal who wants gorgeous hair on demand!
