Monat Hair Update 3

Month three of Monat and I’m loving it. I have switched up a few things, but here are my updated hair routine.

Because I’m washing my hair more thoroughly my hair gets greasy less. I realized I wasn’t completely getting rid of the soap in my hair before. I thought I was, but now I do a wash, rinse, repeat method.

I start with my generic shampoo, layer it into my hair (top, middle, bottom) and massage it really well into my scalp. I let it sit 2-3 minutes. Then I completely rinse it and repeat with the Monat shampoo.

Then I repeat this method with conditioner, at least from about 2/3 of the head down, let this sit about 5 minutes and rinse thoroughly.

99% of the time I let my hair air dry. This week I started using an air dry cream, split end cream, and leave in conditioner.

For family pictures on Christmas I used my round brush/hair dryer and my hair lasted 7 days before even getting a little greasy. I’m too lazy to keep that up and I don’t like using heat on my hair, but I loved the results this time!

My bathroom lighting isn’t the greatest, but here’s my freshest cut. Lots of layers.
December 2023: the hair feels/looks fuller.
(Taken a week after the previous picture.) Freshly washed, 80% dry. Notice the growth, layers are definitely growing out.
