My life after rebonding

Rebonding. If you are reading this and you are from the Philippines, then I am 100% sure you know what I am talking about.

I had my 1st rebonding experience back in 2004 (I think) when it was very expensive and very popular. From then on, I had to go back to the salon to have my regrowth rebonded.. and that went on for yeaaaaaaars (2012).

Then I realized,  will I keep my hair rebonded every time it has hair regrowing from my scalp FOR THE REST OF MY LIFE?? All those money wasted and hours spent in the salon.

I mean, yeah, it looks “perfect”. Pin straight hair, manageable,  always in place, you look lije those asian chick in that hair shampoo commercial or that actress from that show.

Hair care products I currently use

Hey y’all!

This is a long one. (That’s what she said :p)

Anywaaay, here’s a little background story about my hair:

Here in the Philippines, most people would like to have super straight hair. A girl or a boy or anywhere inbetween, would go to a salon and have their hair rebonded. 

Basically, “rebonding” is having your hair straightened permanently. Like stick straight hair. When your roots grow out, you would have the treatment done AGAIN because your natural hair is showing. If you have curly or wavy hair like mine, then you would have wavy hair at the top and straight hair midway and all the way down.

So I vowed to (try to) NEVER have my hair rebonded ever again! And to love my natural hair 😉 (btw rebonding costs around 1000 to 4000 Php..so yea I’ve been having the treatment for about 8 years. Imagine the money I paid just to have straight hair.)

Instead of spending big money in the salon for harmful hair treatments, I have been searching beauty stores for effective hair care stuff and reading/watching alot about DIY hair treatments 🙂

Moving on to the products!!

Shampoo

organix renewing argan oil of morocco

What I like about this shampoo is that it is Sulfate free. It doesnt give you that super bubbly foam when you lather but it doesn’t make your hair dry and lose its natural oils. It costs 449 Php and I bought it at Landmark Makati. (Which happens to be the argan oil heaven, lots of argan oil stuff!)

Conditioner

TRESemmé keratin smooth

By far, the BEST conditioner I know and use. Period.

Oils

Since I have treated hair, it tends to get dry and frizzy. Here are some oils I use to prevent that from happening 🙂

Organix moroccan moisture argan oil

I. AM. IN LOVE.  WITH. THIS.

It smells good, makes your hair shiny, doesn’t leave an oily yucky feel to your hair, makes it tangle free, not frizzy, etc. It’s like a miracle for your hair. (It does say miracle in the bottle. Lol.) It’s around 500 Php and it is super worth it.

ellips hair vitamin with argan oil

For the longest time I’ve been super curious about this product until one day I decided to try it. I bought the one that says it has moroccan argan oil (of course) and this is around 50 Php.

Surprisingly,  it is as good as the organix argan oil! It smells really good and makes your hair soft and no oily feeling too! Will definitely buy another pack. It is available at Watsons and also at 711 (how convenient! Haha!)

There you have it, my current hair products I use 💜 I will definitely post more hair topics like my hair care routine, my current hair situation, my diy hair treatment, etc…

Tell me what products you use to your hair or let me know if you have tried these products as well OR suggest awesome products in the market! I would love to try more argan oil!

See you soon :*
