Hiya! In this video I’m doing what I love most: a good curly hair haul… even though I’ve been on a pretty epic low-buy compared to my old days. Moving in with my boyfriend had me packing up my massive stash (nightmare), and somehow that stress turned into “I deserve a little retail therapy”… of the hair variety. So I’m walking you through what I picked up across the year—clearance finds, a rare Sally Beauty coupon moment, and then the bigger orders that happened after the move. I talk through what I’m actually planning to do with these products in my routine—more moisture in 2026 (I’m already seeing benefits), more bond-building support after I damaged my hair last summer, and getting my curls photo-ready because I’m planning to wear my hair curly for future engagement/wedding events. I also share my honest thoughts on packaging vs. performance (Soul Tanicals… we need the marketing to match), my ride-or-die detangling pre-poo, my temporary color plans now that Gemini Naturals is gone, and why certain gels earned a spot for those “I need this wash and go to last” weeks. Plus, I’m pushing past my introvert self and aiming for 10K subscribers by the end of 2026—so if you’re new here, come hang with me.
