My daughter begged me to do this trend… so naturally I made it about hair. 😂💁🏻‍♀️ If I’m going to hop on a trend, I’m at least going to sneak in my favorite frizz-fighting products while I’m here. Priorities. 😌 ✨ featured: 🤍 langehair Hair Frizz Care Duo Shampoo + Conditioner 🤍 Color Wow Hair Dream Coat Extra Strength 🤍 IGK Hair Hair 4-in-1 Prep Spray + Heat Protectant 🤍 amika The Shield Because cute trends are fun… but smooth, humidity-resistant hair is forever. 🤭 Which product are you stealing from my lineup first?

One year ago, I would’ve convinced myself I wasn’t “big enough” to apply.

This year… I’m choosing to believe in myself.

I’ve spent the last few years pouring my heart into content creation, growing as both a creator and a professional hairstylist, and building a community that values education over empty recommendations. I don’t just want to tell people what to buy—I want them to understand why it’s the right choice for them.

Ulta Beauty has been part of my journey long before I ever dreamed of creating beauty content. It was where I searched for products to cover my vitiligo, and later, where I found the skincare, SPF, and makeup that gave me the confidence to embrace it instead.

Submitting this application feels like a full-circle moment.

No matter what happens, I’m proud that I stopped asking, “Am I good enough?” and started asking, “Why not me?”

Here’s to betting on yourself. 💕✨

If you’ve ever talked yourself out of an opportunity because you thought you weren’t ready, this is your sign to go for it.

Bestie… if your hair is still dry after buying every oil, mask, leave-in, serum, and “miracle” product on the internet, we need to have a little chat. 👀😂

Because sometimes the problem isn’t that your hair needs MORE moisture…

It’s that you’ve created a whole traffic jam on the hair shaft. 🚧🚗🚗🚗

Hear me out.

I see so many people with dry hair constantly piling on oils trying to “hydrate” it. But oils don’t actually hydrate your hair—they help SEAL moisture in. And when you keep layering oil on top of oil on top of oil, eventually you create a barrier that makes it harder for water and moisturizing ingredients to get where they need to go. 💧❌

And guess what your hair actually needs to stay hydrated?

WATER. 🤯

So now you’re sitting there wondering why your hair feels dry, crunchy, dull, and thirsty even though you’ve spent half your paycheck at Sephora. 😭💸

This is why clarifying shampoo is the most underrated product in haircare. 🙌

Every once in a while, your hair needs a reset button. A fresh start. A clean slate. ✨

A good clarifying shampoo helps remove all that buildup from oils, styling products, silicones, dry shampoo, and environmental gunk so moisture can actually pe*****te the hair strand again. 💦

Think of it this way…

You can’t keep putting lotion on while wearing ten layers of sweaters and expect it to reach your skin. 😂

Sometimes you need to remove what’s sitting on top before the good stuff can get in.

So if your hair has been screaming “I’m dry!” while you’re over there giving it its 17th oil treatment of the week… maybe it’s not begging for more oil.

Maybe it’s begging for a clarifying shampoo. 😏

Save this for your next wash day and send it to that friend who thinks another hair oil is the answer to everything. 🤣👇
