Trying a high bun for a bit, as long as I can take it without any aches!
I had some medication-induced anxiety about hair loss recently and gave myself a big trim, from knee, back to classic. On the upside, my ends feel great and are much thicker. I don't regret it. I'm a little sad about the lost length, but it's a lot more fun to wear down now.
Current routine:
Shampoo - whatever catches my eye, currently probably a German Nivea variety, followed occasionally by Neutrogena T-Gel. I usually put conditioner in the length while I wait for the T-Gel to do its magic.
Conditioner is currently L'oreal Elvive Dream Lengths. It's makes my hair super soft/silky and tames static. Tons of 'cones, I'm positive, but it's the closest I've come to the old Herbal Essences Long Term Relationship, which I liked for the same reasons. Slightly too much slip, though.
Right this second, it's down to give my scalp some rest.

I've just shampooed and conditioned my hair using Johnson&Johnson Baby Shampoo, and I applied the pre-conditioning treatment the Stabilizer Plus. Then, I conditioned using Clairol's ColorSeal Conditioning Gloss. As my leave-in I applied the Garnier Fructis Sleek & Shine Humidity Milk. Now, I'm sitting here letting it air dry for 2 or 3 hours. Then, I'm going to apply the Luster's Pink Oil Moisturizing Lotion, and I'm going to blow dry for only 5 minutes.

Yeah, I know those kind of medications can sadly cause some hair loss. Well, I say at least your hair is still very long at classic. That is a nice length! I bet your ends do look and feel a lot better and thicker.
Yeah, I love a conditioner or a product that gives your hair a lot of slip!

I just combed my hair and put it up in two twisted buns with satin scrunchies. Then I put my satin bonnet on over top. I'll be rocking this at least until the weekend. I think wash day will be sunday, so until then.
Sprayed innate life leave in and rose elixir now braided for bed.
It's fabulous! I had the same complaint about Long Term Relationship, which wasn't exactly a problem. If I use it twice in the same wash, my ends feel sooooo nice! I hope you like it if you try it
It's strongly scented, though it does wear off after too long. It's kind of a heavy vanilla or something, maybe some amber in there?
Yeah I was freaked out about it. Ended up stopping the medication since it was causing too much anxiety, even outside of that. Feeling much better now. It is still quite long! I thought I was giving myself more of a trim to tailbone, too, so it was a little longer than I expected it to be, even.
