Wash Day Ain’t Cancelled Just Because You’re a Mom
If you’ve ever had to deep condition with a baby on your hip or rinse shampoo out while hollering, “Get out the toilet!”, this post is for you.
Motherhood will have you skipping steps, forgetting yourself, and throwing your hair into the same puff for the fifth day in a row. But here’s the truth (with love): your wash day still matters, even if it looks different now.
1. Turn It Into ‘Me Time’ (Even if It’s 14 Minutes)
Gone are the days of full spa-like Sundays.
But that doesn’t mean you can’t make wash day special.
Light a candle. Lock the door. Throw on your favorite playlist.
Let the kids fight over cereal while you steam out some stress.
✨ Pro Tip: Use our Leave-In Conditioner as your shortcut to softness. It detangles fast, smells like a grown woman’s dream, and gives you that “I tried today” finish even when you didn’t have time for the full routine.
2. Include the Babies (Yes, Even the Grown Ones)
If you’ve got a daughter, a son, or a curious little cousin, let them pull up a stool and watch. Let them see how you part, hydrate, and wrap up your hair with care.
✨ Wig wearer? Keep our Edge Control nearby for a quick fix before the school run. Slick it, swoop it, and smile at yourself in the mirror like, “Yep. Still got it.”
3. Don’t Skip Your Scalp. That’s Where the Story Starts.
Stress, sweat, and dry air don’t take a break just because you’re busy. Your scalp deserves better than neglect. Massage it for five minutes during your shampoo or oil it up while watching Bluey in the background.
✨ Scalp-saving gem: That Growth Oil hits every time. Lightweight, non-greasy, and gentle enough for postpartum hairlines that need TLC.
Being a mom changes the schedule, but not your worth. You can still show up for your hair in bite-sized moments. Wash day might look different, but the results can still be everything.
Even five minutes of care can shift your whole mood, and your crown deserves that shift.
