Must-Haves for Growing Out Short Hair

1. Headbands- Headbands that are versatile and cute will get you through those awkward hair days.

2. Flat Iron- This can be used to straighten, curl, or add body to growing out hair.

3. Thickening Paste- Thickening Paste adds life, movement, and hold to flat or oddly shaped in-between hair.

4. Biotin Vitamin- A skin, hair and nail vitamin will help with growth and strength of hair.

5. Hairspray- Grown out hair can be unruly, but a flexible hold hairspray will keep the style (you can attempt to give to your hair) and shape. 

Skin Care Routine

This is my "Holy Grail" face routine, I use it strictly at night in the shower because my skin is extremely sensitive and dry.


1.Cetaphil Moisturizing Cream- This lasts for months and months and is the only moisturizer I can use on my skin.


2.Wash Cloth- I use this in the shower, my skins is flakey and dry and this is just the amount of soft exfoliation I need.


3.Cetaphil Oil Control Foam Wash- My dermatologist recommended this to me, I should have been using this years before now! It cleans my makeup and excess dirt and oil off my face, but doesn't dry it out.


4.De La Cruz Sulfur Ointment 10%- This was a random buy at Wal-Mart, but now I can't go without it. It treats my acne without over drying.


5.Neutragena On-The-Spot Benzoyl Peroxide Acne Treatment-I'm allergic to Salicylic Acid, so I use this on spots, then put the sulfur ointment on top.


6.Bath Brush- I use this on my chest and back with about two pumps of the foam wash just to clean off dirt and oil.
