Latina Self Care Routines That Will Give Your Hair Life
Let’s face it, familia, while quarantine has been all kinds of monotonous, it’s also been good for a couple of things. For example, all that extra “Me” time has done wonders for our self care routines. Without the usual socialization to look forward to, we’ve embraced our beauty and wellness drills in order to remind us about life’s little joys. It’s a reminder that, no matter what the world is facing, there are all kinds of luxuries left to explore.
Whether you’re cautiously embracing a world outside your home or are still relying on Zoom, prioritizing self care basics is a must. It’s time to indulge in the things that we love; in the things that make us feel like our best selves. And, while we nurture our bodies and minds, it only makes sense that we also take time to nurture our hair.
Luckily, Sephora has all the best products to give our cabello a glow-up while we indulge in the things that make us feel renewed. No matter what your self care go-to is, Sephora has a hair mask to perfectly pair with your much-needed pampering.
- Say “Namaste” to a gentle yoga routine while using Amika’s Soulfood Nourishing Hair Mask

5. Start your week off right with journaling and Briogeo’s Don’t Despair, Repair! Deep Conditioning Mask
Self care isn’t just a one time thing. It should be an ongoing project so setting helpful routines to better your life will do wonders if you embrace them. Journaling is a relaxing way to organize yourself & your thoughts for the coming week. But, while it helps you to mentally reset for the adventures ahead, journaling isn’t the only weekly reset you can benefit from.
Briogeo’s Don’t Despair, Repair! Deep Conditioning Mask is a weekly, clinically tested vegan mask that strengthens damaged hair. A Sephora community favorite that is designed for all hair types and textures, this mask also prevents further damage to your tresses while adding body and shine.
