Want healthier hair, but just don't know how to 'get there'? Sis I feel you, and also feel like I have spent way too long juggling shampoos, sprays, creams, masks, and conditioners - all in the name to achieve not only healthy hair, but who doesn't love volume, and a little shine without the grease?
I finally feel like I found the products that work best and help me achieve my DREAM HAIR every single day - even on dirty hair day number 4!
Of course, we all have hair products we swear by, but have you ever felt that there might be something out there, that just might change your mind?
About two years ago, I set out on a mission searching for hair products that could help me achieve my wildest dreams, and tame my wild mane - and I haven't looked back since.
I wanted to share a couple of products that are essential in achieving voluminous, hair, without the dry frizz and a lot of other 'dreamy' benefits too.
In this blog post, I will cover 4 things for each life saving essential
- The purpose and benefits
- The order to use in your routine
- The price
- And of course the link, so that you can shop all my favorite goodies!

1. Remember how I said that these products will help you achieve the hair of your dreams? Yeah, well I wasn't joking, because Amika Velveteen Dream is the real deal. For only $20 you can have silky soft velveteen hair. This shampoo is great (for a lot of reasons, duh) but mainly because it lasts so long. A little goes a long way!
Benefits:
- Awesome for ALL hair types! Straight, curly, wavy, you name it.
- Humidity protectant
- Silky smooth product, for silky smooth hair
- Protects against breakage
If humidity is your biggest enemy, this will be your new best friend!
2. Second thing on my recipe for dreamy hair, is the Revlon Uniq One Coconut All In One! This boss babe retails for $22 at Walmart. This is the first thing I use when I get out of the shower.

I have been using this since the good ol' days, back when I used to swim TWICE a day, THREE days a week! Uniq One not only saved my hair from the chlorine damage, but kept it smelling
amazing 24/7, even in the pool.
This product has TEN benefits!
- Repair for dry & damaged hair
- Shine and frizz control
- Heat protection
- Silkiness & smoothness
- Hair color protection with UVA&UVB filters
- Easier brushing & heat styling
- Detangles
- Long-lasting hairstyle
- Split ends prevention
- Adds body
3. Next on the list is It's a 10 Silk Express Miracle Leave-in! This 'miracle' retails for $23.

I spray it on the ends of my hair right after Uniq One, and of course it smells so good! After all these products, I'm convinced I won't need to wear perfume anymore.
Benefits:
- Strengthens and restores vital moisture and nutrients into dry, damaged hair
- Adds silky shine and smoothness with natural body
- Seals in hydration while shielding from frizz
- Protects color-treated hair against fading and dryness
- Detangles and softens hair
- Infuses deep hydration to reduce breakage
- Lightweight formula won't weigh hair down
- Build-up free formula
- Cumulative nourishing and strengthening benefits with continued use
- Can be used after every shampoo
So what I'm saying is... what's not to love?

4. Amika is just too good, and always leaves me wanting more. "You're a wizard Harry" is the fist thing I think of when I say Amika The Wizard, and the second thing I think of is 'Gonna be late, better blow dry my hair'. This must have saves me not only time, but a dead arm from holding the blow dryer for so long! I know I'm weak, but seriously, I have a lot of hair! This magical product is only $25, and lasts for months!
Benefits:
- Reduces blow dry time
- Heat protectant
- Hair primer
- Detangles

5. Word on the street is, the longer you can go without washing your hair, the healthier and faster it will grow. Though I do agree, some days, ESPECIALLY on day 4, our hair might be looking a little... ok a lot like a grease bomb went off, and flat as a stack of pancakes. We occasionally need a little pick-me-up, or in this case, a few sprays of Aussie Clean Texture Dry Shampoo for only $4!
Benefits:
- Cleanses hair to remove dirt and oil at the root
- Adds texture
Best thing yet, my hair doesn't get greasy after an hour, and actually lasts! Perfect for textured beach waves!

6. To add onto the beach waves, the ultimate hair spray to keep everything in tact, without making it stiff is the Aussie Mega Hair Spray (1/4 flexible hold) and only for $3 people! I can't curl my hair without it!
Benefits:
- Flexible hold, all day
- Helps protect hair's protein to help preserve strength with UV protection for the hair
- Provides hold with flexibility so your hair doesn't get stiff or unruly
After searching for the best hair products to help grant my wishes, and give me the hair of my dreams, I finally found them - and at the best prices too!
These affordable products make it easy to restock when needed, and keep me look'n fabulous. You should definitely give 'em a try - I would tell you my favorite, but honestly they're all just so good!
