(H)AIR DRY In quarantine I’ve been trying my be

(H)AIR DRY In quarantine I’ve been trying my best to give my hair and skin some extra TLC. When we’re not seeing a ton of people, or going a ton of places, what better time to pile on the skincare and reduce the damage to your hair. First, as many of you know, I wash my hair once a week. Maybe twice on rare occasion, if SUPER necessary. But, prior to quarantine, I was blowdrying or heat styling nearly everyday. When you have extensions, bleach your hair, and have dry hair to begin with, the heat is most def your enemy.
⠀
So, I’ve been working on air drying (drying/smoothing only with my @revlon brush toward the end if v necessary). Then I will curl with my favorite 1.5” @t3micro iron, and use my @ghdhair straightener around the hairline, again, if necessary. So wanted to layout my current routine for you guys which allows for you to air dry prior to styling (and I’ve included some picks if you don’t want to style, and just want to leave it!). Here’s what I’ve been doing step by step and as I mask my hair I mask my skin (loving @youthtothepeople hydrate + glow dream mask, @imageskincare vital C and @summerfridays R+R mask).
⠀
Step 1: MASK for 2-4 hours with @kerastase_official Resistance Mask (severely damaged hair) + @olaplex No. 3
Step 2: Wash/Condition @olaplex No. 4 + No. 5
Step 3: Condition @amika Bust your Brass purple conditioner (for blondes!)
Step 4: Towel Dry, add @olaplex No. 6 treatment + No. 7 Oil, @bumbleandbumble HIO Primer, @oribe Maximista to roots
Step 5: Wait until 80% dry, then apply @livingproofinc Instant protection. Smooth with @revlon drying brush
Step 6: Curl with @t3micro 1.5” iron on 3-4 heat, straighten with @ghdhair if necessary
⠀
Here are my favorite’s if you’re going to let air dry with no heat styling!
⠀
☀️ @bumbleandbumble Don’t Blow It (thick and fine hair)
☀️ @olaplex No. 6 treatment + No. 7 Oil
☀️ @kristeness Hair Water
☀️ @theouai Air Dry Foam (good for fine hair too!)
☀️ @IGKhair NoMore Blow (speeds up air drying!)
☀️ @randco Waterfall Moisture Shine Lotion (med/thick hair)

Posting late today because I was waiting to take m

Posting late today because I was waiting to take my first @jabsbygina class! My team at work loves this workout and they like to sweat. So, I booked the BOGO class (2 for $9!) and found an opening tonight. You guys, it was HARD! Such a fun upbeat class with @jilliangoodtree (she has some serious energy and I’m here for it!). I’ve been getting a ton of questions on which at home workouts are my fave, and this is definitely one of the most challenging workouts I’ve done. Highly recommend integrating @jabscommunity into your weekly routine! 💪🏼♥️
⠀
This combo class is two things- SWEATY and CARDIO BASED. So while I typically lean more on the yoga/pilates type workouts, I was missing the traditional cardio I’d try to get in a time or two a week. Pre-COVID I was a 1x Soul, 1-2x @y7studios or @yogavidanyc hot yoga, and 2x a week @sltnyc girl. But now, I’ve been loving @melissawoodhealth, @onepeloton, and @sltnyc @yogavida at home. I’m super pumped to bring @jabsbygina into my routine for those days you need a solid sweat. Also, the transformations of people who have taken this class for a bit are incredible. A few things to note:
⠀
1. How to Join: To try it out email info@jabsbygina.com with the subject “I Wanna Jab” to get on the list. You can also buy the BOGO and schedule from there.
2. Classes: Currently offering Combos (best for beginners), Cardio Splash, Choreo, Abs, Arm Blast, Lower Body, and BANDS.
3. Booking: Weekly on Thurs at 8:00pm EST for Mon-Fri classes and Tues at 8:00pm EST for Sat/Sun classes.
4. Equipment: Necessary equipment is listed on the schedule. Most classes work with bodyweight or one set of 2-3lb weights
5. To Note: Turn on your Zoom camera! The instructors can help offer modifications!

Check it out and let me know what you think! GET READY TO SWEAT!

My little brother @austin_weller told me something

My little brother @austin_weller told me something yesterday that stuck with me “where there is darkness there is light, the shadows of darkness are cast only by their contrast against the light”. I asked him, what if the light goes away, what if it dims and his answer was that the light is eternal. It’s you, it’s God, it’s all things good and it never burns out. I felt so proud to hear such a profound statement from what used to be my “baby brother”. Sometimes you just need to hear a different perspective and God puts people in your life to give it to you. So, I’ll be acknowledging the shadows, but I’ll be focusing on the light. Doing whatever i can to keep that eternal light shining. ✨

Beach break with my baby Bubs. He’s turning into such a little fishy! I can safely say, the love for the ocean breeze, sun, sand, and water makes us both so happy! ☀️🥥🏝

MORNING BEV ROUTINE ☕️♥️ | Sharing more on

MORNING BEV ROUTINE ☕️♥️ | Sharing more on stories about how I start my morning - drink wise! So much of the health of your skin, body, immune system, etc. starts with hydration. So, I use my “morning 4” to kickstart the day into high gear. I drink these 4 beverages within the first hour of waking up and it helps immensely with my hydration, digestion, and energy throughout the day. This is something I’ve done for years, so I KNOW it makes a difference. I can tell you, I definitely feel off on the days I don’t start this way!
⠀
1. A full glass of water (at least 8oz)
2. Fresh lemon water (vitamin c, boosts digestion, improves skin quality. I wash the lemon first and let the lemon sit in the water)
3. @vibranthealth Green Vibrance (25BB probiotics/prebiotics boosting nutrition, circulation, digestion, immunity)
4. Coffee with @microingredients organic inulin (fiber made from Jerusalem artichoke with prebiotics for gut health) + @beanenvy chocolate MCT oil powder with collagen (improves focus, keeps you fuller longer, boosts skin health- love this stuff). SN @beanenvy just launched a keto bone broth protein powder (it’s DELISH) and also works. Also- i always use a @softystraws straw silicon straw (call me crazy but it keeps my teeth from getting stained)
⠀
Linking the products here for you guys including my favorite coffee mugs @williamsonoma @anthropologie and frother! We have a @jura at home (pricey but THE BEST coffee) but have been using @peetscoffee dark roast in FL.
⠀
Who else has a morning routine that makes a major difference?!

Anyone else need a cocktail? I have to share with

Anyone else need a cocktail? I have to share with you guys the COOLEST thing I found when it comes to our new WFH (everything from home) lifestyle. I hosted a happy hour with my clients tonight and wanted to send cocktails for everyone. After searching high and low, I came across @cocktailcourior and was SOLD.
⠀
Basically, they curate drink recipes and send you the complete drink kit along with a recipe, and the cutest packed box. There are tons of cocktails to choose from (I went with the El Pepino Cucumber Margarita) and they send kits for 2, 6, and 12 cocktails. Literally everything is included! The spices/salts, fruits, syrups/tonics, garnishes, and even the alcohol! They use choice liquor brands and I was just so impressed with the whole process I had to share.
⠀
So check out @cocktailcourior for your next corporate HH, birthday @zoom, or even date night! Oh, and Cheers to being halfway done with this week! Swipe to see the full kit! 🥂
