Andddd we’re back, for the second installment of: My Hair Whacked Out After Giving Birth!

This time around, the artist formerly known as my effortless waves took a turn for the curly, knotty, and—major EEEK—oily.

So I did what any time-starved mommy would do: literally ran to my local Harmon while my kiddos napped in the double stroller, and proceeded to spend a ridiculous amount of money on every shampoo/conditioner with even the smallest hint of promise.

Let’s start with the no’s: Shea Moisture (multiple kinds), the Living Proof curl line (discontinued for a reason), and Deva Low-Poo (Just. Nope.) to name a few.

But one set did in fact rise among the rest as a complete and total game changer.

***LIVING PROOF PERFECT HAIR DAY***

It’s not new. Not exciting. And, being that it came from Harmon, it very likely was a castoff from Sephora or (please no) Nordstrom Rack. But guess what: I DON’T CARE. Because after a few days of use, my oil is GONE and my hair texture has honest-to-god CHANGED to be soft, obedient, and pretty.

Miracles do happen, people.
