Want your curls to last beyond wash day? Your routine makes a difference!

Come refresh my curls with me using my Curl Wow products. Today, I dampened my hair with my continuous spray bottle, then used FLO-ETRY and SHOOK Mix + Fix. I’ve been really enjoying how these work for my curls!

For me, a good refresh starts on wash day: cleansing, conditioning, applying products in sections, and taking the time to diffuse. That effort helps me get multiple days out of my curls.

And don’t forget your bedtime routine! A silk pillowcase and bonnet help protect all that work while you sleep.

Curly girls, what do you struggle with most—frizz, refreshing, or keeping your curls overnight? Tell me below so I can help!

and that’s on girls supporting girls - my goal is 1000. I see this working all the time for other creators and I’d love to hit my goal and focus on growing a likeminded community on this platform! *

Come along with me for a day in my suite! A little behind-the-scenes, suite duties, and a beautiful fall color. Such a great day doing what I love!

Ready for your own fall refresh? Message me to book at my Freeland suite!

Curly girl wash day—if you know, you know. You can’t rush it, especially when you’re trying to get those curls just right.

I’ll be sharing more curly hair tips and tricks, so follow along. And if you know another curly girl who gets it, tag her below!

If you watched the video, show me a little love. It’s hard putting yourself out there, especially when you’re just starting out.

A comment, like, share, or follow might seem small to you, but it could change everything for a new creator. And I promise, I’m not asking for a kidney or anything. ❤️

A little hello from my suite in Freeland! I’m Maria, and I love helping women feel good about their hair, whether that means a curly cut, gray coverage, or IBE® extensions for straight or curly hair.

If you’ve been looking for a hairstylist, I’d love to meet you. And if you already know a curly girl or someone searching for a new stylist, tag them in the comments or share this video with them. Show me some love—referrals are the best compliments!

Costco fall must-haves!

I stopped by my local Costco in Midland and picked up a few cozy fall staples, including this white pullover. I love finding easy, comfortable pieces that I can throw on all season long.

Now I want to know—what’s one fall must-have you’ve found at your local Costco? I feel like there are always hidden gems I’m missing!

“Not to flirt or anything, but I’d make you fall back in love with your natural curls.”

I know exactly what it feels like to fall out of love with your curls. I’ve worn extensions for a long time, and honestly, I’m still someone who likes my hair both ways.

Coming back to my natural curls has been a learning experience for me too. Your hair changes as you get older, after having a baby, and just through different seasons of life. Sometimes you have to completely relearn what your curls need.

I’m still learning mine, and maybe the extensions will make another appearance someday, but right now I’m learning to love my curls again.

And I love helping other curly girls do the same.
