5 Step Self-Care Routine

For me, hair-washing day is an EVENT. It takes a lot of time, so I like to make it a self-care process to carve out some special time for myself. Of course, I had to share my go-to self care routine for wash days!
My new fave shampoo I’m reaching for is from Nutrient Blends Collection from Pantene. It’s super moisturizing, sulfate, paraben, dye and mineral oil-free, and smells like a dream! I’m a big fan of rose water everything (face mists, lotions, toner, you name it!) and the Miracle Moisture Boost with Rose Water lives up to my obsession.
Being blonde means I’m always battling dry, bleached hair. I have to do a little bit extra to enrich these strands, and I love how much moisture the rose water collection gives my hair. I don’t have to worry about it dulling my color either because it’s all sulfate-free. Bonus points for how good it smells!
Here’s my self-care routine for wash days, so that you can give your wash days a boost:
1. Light a candle. Step one to any type of relaxation for me always starts with a candle. It sets the mood, and makes me slow down. Plus, there’s nothing better than indulging in your favorite scent.
2. Play a mellow playlist. Step two in setting the mood: the music. Cue up something that makes you feel zen. For me, I go straight for my Relax playlist on Spotify.
3. Wash your hair. I’m using using Pantene’s Miracle Moisture Boost with Rose Water Shampoo and Conditioner from their Nutrient Blends Collection because it’s perfect for gentle cleansing, leaving my dry hair feeling soft and not stripped. Take a peek at the Pantene Nutrient Blends website to find what’s best for your hair.
4. Put on a mask + condition your hair. I’m a big fan of getting in as much moisture as possible, so I like to leave my conditioner in for a good 5-10 minutes. Soaking your hair gives you extra soft strands! While your conditioner is sitting do a face mask. Then do a final rinse. Easy peasy!
5. Read a book. Read and lounge in a robe while your hair dries. I love to keep a book of poetry lying around and give myself some peaceful reading time.
Hope this makes your wash days something to look forward to! Shop the Miracle Moisture Boost with Rose Water Collection here. Happy self-care day, babes! xoxo Erika
