My Hair Care Journey
Ok, so I’m just going to start by saying that ever since I hit puberty, I have been searching high and low for the perfect hair care regimen. My skin type is combination, and apparently, that is not limited to my face but also applies to my scalp.
“Combination” skin just means that it’s prone to being oily and dry. Humidity levels and hard water play a role in this. Living in Missouri, I get the best of both worlds, dry and humid air without fail. If you’re anyone like me, you know the hassle of when your scalp gets oily/dry and you just don’t have the right products at the right time.
I have gone through SO many hair care products, I’m talking drug store, high-end, thrift store, the whole nine! And, unfortunately, I’ve only ever been able to count on one hand some of those products that have actually worked. I really have to be so selective when it comes to my hair + products.
Insert MoNat
I had heard of MoNat from several of my friends over the years and have seen it being raved about on social media. My scalp is sensitive and picky, to say the least, and as soon as I heard scalp health, I was ready to give it a whirl!
Scalp health is SO important to me, not just because of the struggle I’ve had, but because so many of my friends and family members have as well. So I finally went outside my comfort zone and jumped on the MoNat train. Best decision I made in 2023, next to starting my blog, of course!
Transformation Timeline
My Honest Review
The first thing I noticed right off the bat was that I had no irritation and no dry scalp the following days. Whereas my previous hair care would’ve caused me to wash my hair like a day later. The second thing, and probably the most notable, was how VERY lightweight it was on my roots. I have 2A hair type, meaning I have loose waves and am more prone to having flat roots. I’ve also been told by my stylists that I have “fine” hair, but I also have a lot of it!
Since my scalp is sensitive, my hair is so long, and I’m prone to dry and oily roots, it really is so important that it gets clean, that nothing heavy goes onto it, and that it gets all the nutrients and moisture possible, without being weighed down. Somehow, MoNat has found a way to do that for me, and do it well! And did you see that hair growth transformation?! I’m SHOOK!!
Products
The first product I’d like to give a shout-out to is their Volumizing Shampoo. It is just the perfect balance of weightlessness and hydration all in one. It is a double wash system, and my tip for that is to use a little less than the normal amount of shampoo you’d typically use. Really focus on evenly distributing and massaging the product all over your roots and scalp as much as possible. After rinsing, use a dime size amount for your second cleanse. It lathers SO well and really does get out all the dirt, grime, and product build-up.
To my surprise, but not really at this point (because I’ve loved all their products already) I really enjoy their Black Shampoo + Conditioner (2 in 1) I’ve NEVER liked a 2 in 1 before! It’s so great for a quick wash and if you’re like me and tend to use a lot of product throughout the week, it leaves your hair SO clean without stripping the natural oils and making your scalp feel dry, which I have found SO hard to find in a cleansing shampoo. It also leaves your hair smelling minty fresh!
A few other honorable mentions are from their new makeup line they just launched about a month ago. First off, the packaging is stunning. Their new brow gel is SO good! I can’t believe how lightweight it is. It doesn’t even feel like there’s anything on my brows yet somehow keeps them groomed all day long without me having to fix them!
Then you have their bronzer, which blends so seamlessly and is the perfect shade. And their growth mascara! 🫶 It doesn’t flake, doesn’t smudge, lasts all day, and the formula has the perfect volume + length ratio without weighing down your lashes. Also, the brush applicator is shaped really well to help manage your lashes and keep them under control.
