Everyone was taking really good care of their skin. I was the only one doing a full makeup beat while walking around the house in PJs. I don&#8217;t know, it just made the chaos feel normal at the time. But yes, everyone was very fixated on face and sheet masks, moisturizers, eye creams, etc&#8230;etc..! Self-care is buying anything and everything for your skin (and your body!). We all handled that time in our own way.<\/p>\n<p>I have always been a skincare lover but when the pandemic hit I started focusing more on hair care. I don&#8217;t know where it came from but within the second week of the closure I became Miss Haircare. This from a girl with really long, unruly, curly hair that she usually slicks back in a bun to keep it out of her face. Like, here I am doing very little with my hair during a normal work week but during the hell of a pandemic, I was Jesus Christ the Star doing all kinds of things. Crown braids, beautifully styled buns, my hair has been the runway for most of my hair looks. What a time to live.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-196855\" src=\"https:\/\/www.musingsofamuse.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/selfie.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"727\" height=\"1081\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.musingsofamuse.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/selfie.jpg 727w, https:\/\/www.musingsofamuse.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/selfie-262x390.jpg 262w, https:\/\/www.musingsofamuse.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/selfie-689x1024.jpg 689w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 340px) calc(100vw - 20px), (max-width: 767px) calc(100vw - 40px), 727px\"\/><\/p>\n<p>Lately, I&#8217;ve had a lot of time on my hands so I&#8217;ve been playing around with different hair care products and trying different things with my hair. I started following a few hairdressers and artists as well. Especially James is on my list that I prepared because he is looking for Thai players. Bas and Tonliew&#8217;s hair is my Roman empire and James is responsible for that goodness. Bas&#8217;s hair is always so cute though! Not a day goes by that this man doesn&#8217;t have good hair. Thank you, James! We love doing all the cute hairstyles now, can you please do mine!?<\/p>\n<p>Also, I&#8217;m still going to try really hard to convince myself not to chop off all of mine one day and just get the pixie cut I&#8217;ve been dreaming of. It won&#8217;t happen but you know, a girl can dream. Did I cut it? At the moment it&#8217;s down to my waist so I need some of it cut off. Maybe I can go all Carol Brady with a little flip mullet? I&#8217;m kidding. Let&#8217;s not get too crazy.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.musingsofamuse.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/carol.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"313\" height=\"300\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-222745\"\/><\/p>\n<p>And of course, I was a year old when I realized that Lisa Price was back with Carol&#8217;s Daughter. Who knew this? Because I didn&#8217;t. PS Why aren&#8217;t the formulas as good as they used to be? This moan! But really, it&#8217;s still part of my list. It&#8217;s not as good as it used to be but I&#8217;m still Carol&#8217;s Dark Vanilla Daughter! It made the list today because it still smells good (I wish I could say the same about the Hair Milk!). It&#8217;s been a while but I started using this again recently and I forgot how much I loved the Black Vanilla Leave-In Conditioner Spray! It makes my hair so soft!<\/p>\n<p>Here are some things I put in my hair!<\/p>\n<p>And my current hair care obsession\u2026.! Adwaa beauty! Love, love, love everything I&#8217;ve tried in this brand! But my favorite of the two is Melonberry Vitamin C Frizz-Fighting Hair Gel which is a god send for humid weather. It is a soft, watery gel that absorbs easily into the hair. It doesn&#8217;t leave hair feeling dry or frizzy but it does manage and condition hair while keeping hair soft! What magic is this!? A must have if you are a gel user. Melonberry Hair Milk Leave-In Conditioner is one of my favorites from Adwoa. This is a great ride. Detang, soften, and keep hair from frizzing. My hair is full of this! If you have dry hair this is a star treatment.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-222731\" src=\"https:\/\/www.musingsofamuse.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/1.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"600\" height=\"600\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.musingsofamuse.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/1.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.musingsofamuse.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/1-390x390.jpg 390w, https:\/\/www.musingsofamuse.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/1-150x150.jpg 150w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 340px) calc(100vw - 20px), (max-width: 640px) calc(100vw - 40px), 600px\"\/><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-222733\" src=\"https:\/\/www.musingsofamuse.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/223.webp\" alt=\"\" width=\"700\" height=\"700\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.musingsofamuse.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/223.webp 700w, https:\/\/www.musingsofamuse.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/223-390x390.webp 390w, https:\/\/www.musingsofamuse.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/223-150x150.webp 150w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 340px) calc(100vw - 20px), (max-width: 740px) calc(100vw - 40px), 700px\"\/><\/p>\n<p>Listen, I don&#8217;t want to be a fake and sure girl, I love Briogeo Be Gentle, Be Kind Avocado + Kiwi Mega Moisture Superfoods Hair Mask but, sometimes you find love in something new! Who else is my love? Gisou Honey Gloss Ceramide Therapy Hydrating Hair Mask! Take my $42! Just pick it up (or grab a mini for $22)! This is some kind of witchcraft! I don&#8217;t know what happens when I use this but my hair goes from Hermione Year 1 to Hermione I&#8217;m Going to the Yule Ball with Viktor Krum. It makes my hair incredibly shiny but also, so smooth and slick it looks like a wet seal. Good stuff!<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.musingsofamuse.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/hair-hair.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"637\" height=\"486\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-222736\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.musingsofamuse.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/hair-hair.jpg 637w, https:\/\/www.musingsofamuse.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/hair-hair-390x298.jpg 390w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 340px) calc(100vw - 20px), (max-width: 677px) calc(100vw - 40px), 637px\"\/><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-222732\" src=\"https:\/\/www.musingsofamuse.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/2.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"600\" height=\"600\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.musingsofamuse.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/2.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.musingsofamuse.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/2-390x390.jpg 390w, https:\/\/www.musingsofamuse.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/2-150x150.jpg 150w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 340px) calc(100vw - 20px), (max-width: 640px) calc(100vw - 40px), 600px\"\/><\/p>\n<p>You know I&#8217;m a lazy girl when it comes to hair sometimes! Taking it back is my jour soup hairstyle. I love the new Briogeo Style + Treat Yuzu + Plum Oil Hair Styling Sleek Stick! Amazing by just slipping through the hair so it&#8217;s easy to put your hair back and go. It&#8217;s non-sticky and non-sticky and leaves hair soft but still manageable. Best of all, it doesn&#8217;t build up and rinses clean at the end of the day!<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.musingsofamuse.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/hair-stick.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"350\" height=\"350\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-222734\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.musingsofamuse.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/hair-stick.jpg 350w, https:\/\/www.musingsofamuse.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/hair-stick-150x150.jpg 150w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 340px) calc(100vw - 20px), (max-width: 390px) calc(100vw - 40px), 350px\"\/><\/p>\n<p>This isn&#8217;t really new but it has become a staple in my hair routine that I have to love again! I&#8217;m talking about dae&#8217;s Cactus Fruit 3-in-1 Styling Cream! First of all it makes your hair smell great! Kind of sweet and fresh! Very pretty. But it also smoothes hair and hydrates like a boss! This is much better than using a gel that can leave a lot of residue.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-215455\" src=\"https:\/\/www.musingsofamuse.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/Dae-Cactus-Fruit-3-in-1-Styling-Cream-.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"738\" height=\"554\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.musingsofamuse.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/Dae-Cactus-Fruit-3-in-1-Styling-Cream-.jpg 738w, https:\/\/www.musingsofamuse.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/Dae-Cactus-Fruit-3-in-1-Styling-Cream--390x293.jpg 390w, https:\/\/www.musingsofamuse.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/Dae-Cactus-Fruit-3-in-1-Styling-Cream--220x165.jpg 220w, https:\/\/www.musingsofamuse.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/Dae-Cactus-Fruit-3-in-1-Styling-Cream--155x116.jpg 155w, https:\/\/www.musingsofamuse.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/Dae-Cactus-Fruit-3-in-1-Styling-Cream--350x263.jpg 350w, https:\/\/www.musingsofamuse.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/Dae-Cactus-Fruit-3-in-1-Styling-Cream--440x330.jpg 440w, https:\/\/www.musingsofamuse.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/Dae-Cactus-Fruit-3-in-1-Styling-Cream--700x526.jpg 700w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 340px) calc(100vw - 20px), (max-width: 778px) calc(100vw - 40px), 738px\"\/><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-215456\" src=\"https:\/\/www.musingsofamuse.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/Dae-Cactus-Fruit-3-in-1-Styling-Cream-swatches.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"738\" height=\"554\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.musingsofamuse.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/Dae-Cactus-Fruit-3-in-1-Styling-Cream-swatches.jpg 738w, https:\/\/www.musingsofamuse.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/Dae-Cactus-Fruit-3-in-1-Styling-Cream-swatches-390x293.jpg 390w, https:\/\/www.musingsofamuse.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/Dae-Cactus-Fruit-3-in-1-Styling-Cream-swatches-220x165.jpg 220w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 340px) calc(100vw - 20px), (max-width: 778px) calc(100vw - 40px), 738px\"\/><\/p>\n<p>What is your current hairstyle?
