Me & My Ginormous Hair. Hair Products 101

My friends always ask me 'What hair product should I use for...long, short, wavy, curly, straight, colored, damaged hair?' Another one of my addictions is for sure Hair products.

Since, personally my hair is ultra wavy and thick, I have tried every single product out there, you name it I've tried it! From steal's to splurge's. When I was young, and back then there wasn't any products for my Ginormous hair, which I always called Lion King Hair.
I was using Sebastian's Laminates for ages, but as they years went by, my hair started falling off by handfulls. Why? Silicone Complex ingredients.Loved it but it screwed up my hair. 

Throughout the years I tried a few products and here are a few of my favorites:

Serums (for all types of hair)
- Paul Mitchell's Super Skinny Serum ($$)
- ALFAPARF Milano Semi Di Lino Gloss ($$$)
