Any other woman over 40 get the question, “why is your hair always in a sloppy pony, it looks so pretty down?” And you feel like answering, “USED TO look pretty free & flowing is the key word.. my texture has been off for the last freaking decade, I can’t manage how oily or dry it seems to stay, somehow simultaneously & it needs to stop touching my face”. Seriously though, I’m this close to chopping it all off just like Shelby.
I follow the rules; only wash 2x/week with sulfate free shampoos, hydrate my ends with conditioning mask, use a boar bristle hair brush to massage/stimulate the scalp, hats in the sun most of the time, tried a silk pillowcase (nope.), and I get enough iron, protein & omega3 vitamins.
On the flip side, I try to manage my stress and hormones on a daily basis but I also never drink enough water. Are these the only things I’m doing wrong? What is the answer here. It’s just hair, I know, but I’m over it 🤪🙃.
I still like & use my Nettle Hair Treatment Oil but would love if you had any other ideas 😘
Until then, another day, another sloppy pony.
