 As a baby, I had soft curls in my hair. Then when I got older they disappeared. I am not sure at what age my curls went away as it seems that there aren't any photos of me from 1 year to 5 years of age. I was the youngest of five and the only photos that I have of my younger years are my school photos. My school photos show my hair being straight.

 When I became an adult, I did the perm thing but my hair never really held the curls. So I gave up on the curly hair thing and just lived with my straight hair. Then a strange thing happened after I had a couple of kids. My hair started to get wavy but it was an uncontrollable wavy that never looked good.

 Then fast forward to a couple of years ago, when I started using natural hair care products, my hair started having a natural curl to it. To think that switching to sulfate-free shampoo made my hair curly again! While my hair had a nice curl, it was dependant on many factors like the weather and how I styled it. 

Cruella Curl Care Collection


When I discovered the Cruella Curl Care Collection from HASK, I just knew that I had to try it. These HASK hair care products were used on the set of Cruella to keep the cast's hair and wigs healthy while achieving over-the-top-hair creations. BAFTA Award-winning Hollywood hairstylist and HASK fan Nadia Stacey used Cruella’s “Curl Care Collection,” among other HASK products, to help create a punk-inspired take on Cruella De Vil’s iconic hairstyles for Emma Stone in the upcoming Cruella for Walt Disney Pictures.

 The HASK Curl Care collection has seven products designed for all curl patterns. The collection offers the ability to customize your wash day and styling routine based on your curl pattern and hair texture. Each product includes a miracle blend of Coconut, Argan Oil, and Vitamin E as well as our Curl Activating Complex for long-lasting, frizz-free curl retention and definition. HASK formulates all products in the collection without sulfates, parabens, phthalates, gluten, drying alcohol, or artificial colors, and are completely silicone-free, vegan, and Leaping Bunny certified.


 I have not seen the Disney Cruella movie but it is available to watch on the Disney channel. I liked the Cruella character in the other Disney movies for her dalmatian inspired clothing. After I saw the preview for the new Disney Cruella movie, I was loving the character's many hairstyles. To think that the HASK Curl Care Collection could give such an amazing curl definition on straight hair, I had to try it on my curly hair. The below words from hairstylist Nadia Stacey is what inspired me to try these HASK hair products at home.

 "How can people recreate Cruella’s iconic curls using HASK products? “If they are blessed with curly hair then the new Curl range is fantastic, all the benefits of HASK products specifically targeted for curls,” Stacey says. “They should add curl-enhancing mousse to wet hair and dry with a diffuser to really encourage the curls. Tip your head upside down when drying to create lots of volume; when you tip your head back the hair will be wild, but that’s what Cruella would want! Then use HASK curl defining cream just to define and take away some of the frizz. Its humidity-proof formula will keep your curls looking lovely. If you have straight hair, I would use a thermal protection spray like Keratin protection 5 in 1 spray to protect before you use a curling tool, rollers, or tongs. DO try this at home!”
 

Cruella Inspired Hair


 While I may not have black and white hair like Cruella, I like dying my hair pink and purple.  A couple of months ago I had pink hair and now I have purple hair. Who knows what other colors I may try on my hair. I like that the Cruella Curl Collection is a complete line of hair care products for people with or without curly hair. 


 I was able to try the HASK Curl Defining Cream, Curl Shaping Jelly, and the 5-1 Leave-In-Spray. I love that these curl products have coconut and argan oil in them to add moisture to my dry frizzy hair. These products have amazing benefits for my curly hair as they helped define and protect my curls. So My curls not only looked better but my curls lasted longer.


 The next day after I used the HASK Curl Collection, I loved that all I had to do was mist my hair with water to revive my curls. Having the HASK curl stylers in my hair care products is a game-changer for my hair, especially in the summer when the weather is dry here in the desert. These curl shapers can be used after washing my hair or if I spray my hair to make it damp. So I can revive my curls every day to have beautiful curly hair. 


Works on straight hair

 Even if you have straight hair, the Cruella Curl Care Collection line from HASK can be used with curling irons and rollers. The products will help you achieve the desired hairstyle with your curling tools. These products have clean ingredients and are vegan, cruelty-free, color-safe, gluten-free, sulfate-free, and paraben-free. The hair products have a tropical scent of bright, fruity coconuts that makes my hair smell awesome. These curl products never leave my hair stiff or crunchy. Thanks to the HASK Curl Collection, I have beautiful curly hair.


Taming The Pandemic Hair With SoapBox

When was your last haircut?

  I received samples from Soapbox to facilitate this post.

  If you are like most people, your hair has been through some tough times these past couple of months. You may not even remember the last time you had a haircut. This is a time when the guys don't understand as they can use hair clippers and have an at-home hair cut. Then throw in the hot summer and my hair needs some much needed TLC. I really want to get a hair cut but my asthma prevents me from visiting a hairstylist for many reasons. One reason that I am staying away from the haircut shop is because of the massive cleaning and sanitizing products that they are using to fight the C lung virus. The other reason is my daughter is having a baby any day and I wanted to stay germ-free for her sake and so I can hold my new grandbaby. I am so excited to be a grandma once again.


Thoughtfully Crafted hair care products 

 It has been at least 5 months since I had a hair cut and my hair is too long. I am not a fan of long hair and like my hair to be shoulder length in the winter. In the summer, I usually wear my hair shorter. So my hairstyle has been a ponytail that keeps my hair off my neck. I have even been wearing my hair pulled back while I sleep as this long hair has been bothering me. I wish I knew someone who cuts hair outside as I am so close to cutting my own hair. Watching failed videos on Youtube has prevented me from grabbing my hair scissors. I have been cutting my bangs though as I have learned how to do that.


 The one thing that I have not compromise on has been my hair care routine and the type of hair care products that I use. A year ago I switched to sulfate-free shampoo when I made the decision to eliminate toxic chemicals from my home. Switching to a sulfate-free shampoo turned my unruly wavy hair turn curly and soft. I also discovered that using shampoos without sulfates and parabens has helped with my frizzy hair. So I am willing to pay more for products that give me great hair.


 I recently discovered hair care products from a company that uses thoughtfully crafted ingredients and has a mission statement to empower people to change the world. SoapBox Soaps was founded in 2010 by a college guy making soaps in his apartment kitchen and eight years later these products are in retailers across the nation and nearly three million donations have been made! SoapBox started with bars of soap and now their product line hair and body products.


 I got to experience their new Tea Tree Clean Purify product line and I really loved the way they made my hair so soft and manageable. My shower experience with the Tea Tree shampoo, conditioner, and hair mask was like a day at the spa. These products had an awesome scent that was minty and I really loved the clean ingredients that are vegan and cruelty-free certified.

  Tea tree oil is known for its purifying qualities of removing build-up on your scalp and hair.  When I got out of the shower, my hair was easy to comb. The weather here has been humid and my hair has been a fizzy hot mess so I was happy to try SB Argan Smoothing serum. My hair felt so soft even the next day and it was not frizzy nor poofy. When I complained to my son about the humidity he said to me, "it can't be because your hair is not poufy." I then had to feel my hair and I was amazed that it was still soft and smooth a day after I washed it.


I have not had a chance to use the Tea Tree shampoo bar from SoapBox but I love that a simple bar of soap can clean your hair. This shampoo bar will be a great travel product as it won't count towards my airport liquid amount. The Tea Tree shampoo bar smelled great even dry. 


 I like that SoapBox uses quality clean ingredients and all of their products are free from parabens, phthalates, silicone, and petrochemicals. Even the fragrances were clean as the scent did not trigger an asthma attack. I also love that SoapBox donates a bar of soap to someone in need with every purchase. They also work with local soap makers to make the donated bars of soaps. The coolest part of the SB soap donation program is how they use recycled bars of soap from hotels. That might sound gross but they use a unique process that cleans and sanitizes the soap. You have to read this article to find out more about how they recycled the soap.


 So while I am waiting to get a hair cut, I will continue to use the Tea Tree Clean Purify hair care product line from SoapBox as it keeps my long hair soft and frizz-free. I have gotten used to the ponytail thing as it is summer. If my hair was shorter, I would still be pulling my hair back as it keeps me cooler. When I do get to the beauty shop, I will have the hairstylist cut off at least 5 inches so my hair will be above my shoulders.
