I Replaced My Shampoo With This New Hair Wash for 30 Days
Believe it or not, my hair and I have had a very tumultuous relationship. Growing up with these crazy natural curls, I always hated how ‘different’ my hair was- being the only curly girl in my family and in my school. Because of this, I began straightening my hair for special occasions like holidays and school dances which escalated into straightening my curls every day for years! At the same time my naturally blonde hair was looking dull and I began highlighting my hair. As you can imagine, all of this processing and straightening led to so much hair damage! Because of all of the damage I was constantly putting my hair through, it began breaking, and breaking…. and breaking until I was forced to do the ‘big chop’ that is so common for girls with damaged curls. I ended up with chin length hair that looked amazing and healthy, but of course, I didn’t learn my lesson and was still straightening and highlighting my hair.

Why I Swear By Trying A Shampoo-less Haircare Routine
Then you have to use a ton of conditioner to make your hair feel soft and smooth again. Detergents found in shampoo are just stripping your oils. We all despise being mid-wash to realize we're out of conditioner, or going to our local drugstore and contemplate the countless shampoo-conditioner combos that are all shouting the same things.

Why I Won't Go Back To Using Drugstore Shampoo After Using This Detergent-Free Hair Product
You know, the kind that you routinely have to coax into submission with the help of a curler or an extra durable hair band. Throughout my life, I’ve had all the haircuts you can think of: a shoulder-length chop with side-swept bangs, a layered chin-length bob and laidback, flowy waves. I’ve tried most products: hair spray, leave-in conditioner, leave-in everything. But really, years of experience have taught me to just stick with what I know best: a choreography of shampoo and conditioner. Rinse and repeat.

6 Must Try Korean Skincare Products
Korean beauty has experienced a surge of popularity in the past 10 years (arguably ever since BB creams became popular). I became interested in Korean skin care after finding out about it through several korean actresses social media. Many Korean skin care products, like Nooni's Marshmallow Whip Maker, have become popular through tiktok trends due to their cute design or innovative function. I am a long-time k-beauty connoisseur – I even worked in South Korea for two years – and I seek out products that don’t irritate my skin and that make my skin care routine feel luxurious. Here are my top six skin care picks and where to find them.

Brilliant, Bold, and Unapologetically Beautiful
We as humans all seek validation from other humans (whether we want to admit it or not), and feeling beautiful is one of those things that's hard to accomplish without it. One of my favorite quotes from actress Emma Stone is "I can't think of any better representation of beauty than someone who is unafraid to be herself." So in that spirit, I want to highlight a fearless, innovative black woman who has taken the beauty world by storm: Melissa R. Butler, founder and CEO of The Lip Bar.

An artist in her own right
Pat McGrath – Make-up Artist, Artist, Genius I had no idea who Pat McGrath was, all I knew was I needed a new mascara. That might not sound like much of a challenge, but for some reason all mascaras simply slide off my lashes so that by mid-afternoon I look like Alice Cooper or the missing member of Kiss. For those that know, the mascara that works for me is ‘tubular’ and my previous favourite came from Trish McEvoy.

Nail Glam 101
About Me Hello from Sacramento, CA. My name is Nicki, and I am a Licensed Nail Technician and a divorced mom of one. I have a 19-year-old daughter and two fur babies. In my spare time, I love to shop, read, write, go to the movies, go out to dinner, and go glamping. Although these days I spend most of my time working. I tend to be a Jill of all trades. I started my professional adult life as a licensed Medical Assistant, next I earned my Bachelor of Science degree in Criminal Justice Administration. I currently have a part-time job in customer service. I also own a nail business (lovenailglam.com), an eyebrow business (theglamstudio.com), and a CBD business (lavender-wellness.com). Although I must say, my first true love has always been nails. My nail business “Nail Glam” was established in 2012. My mission is to provide quality nail services with a focus on exceptional customer care. I have built my business on the principles of nail integrity, trendy nail design, and nail education. When I first started doing nails I began by practicing on my daughter’s and my own nails. Once I felt more comfortable I began doing my family and friend’s nails. After some time my family urged me to go to Beauty College to make it official. I was licensed in December 2015. Since then I’ve attended multiple classes both online and in-person to help me learn new tips and tricks and to keep my skills current. I felt the urge to grow and expand my reach and ability to bring Nail Glam to everyone, so I left the salon setting and set out to manage a studio of my own. Shortly thereafter, Tip Kits by Nail Glam was born. I provide Luxury Press-on Tips & Toes and natural nail kits. My most recent venture is my website nailglam101.com which is all things nail education. I hope you learn a lot from this tutorial and enjoy learning the knowledge step-by-step.
