    I just bought the Laifen Swift dryer and I love it…my hair is dry so fast and without me getting hot, lol. My arms are happy and the cycling feature is so cool! I never thought I’d get excited about a hairdryer, but I really am!

    Yeah, I have to agree you look really good C. I think I mentioned too that I too Bobed my hair, was such a fun move. Just a quick one. Does anyone else notice breakage from scrunching ? Like after 2 to 3 years of scrunching my breakages are on longer pieces in general and been noticing that its a result of styling the hair.

    I only recently started defusing, and have only felt so-so about the results. So, tonight I thought: "I should check and see if Courtney has a new video on defusing with her shorter hair." And apparently I had completely perfect timing! I can't wait to try this out!

    I was diffusing my hair this morning and noticed the indicator light on the back of my laifen was cycling through different colors. Aparently if you hold down the temperature button, it will cycle cold, medium, hot! (Maybe this is old news but I dodnt read my manual so it was new to me 🙃)

    Regular Wash: A regular wash routine with standard shampoo and conditioner. Nothing really special about it. This is what you do weekly, and is the basis of your routine Cowash: Washing with conditioner only. Most conditioners have mild cleansing ingredients that can clean hair if you manually scrub it hard enough. Great for super dry/high porosity/coily hair as sometimes shampoo can be too drying. Also great if you need to cleanse your hair for whatever reason (pool, beach, something got on your hair) in between wash days without stripping it. Can’t do this for too long though, at some point you’ll have to clarify it Clarifying wash: A wash day using a specifically clarifying shampoo. These are much stronger than regular shampoos and strip your hair of everything. Helps scalp health and reset your hair so products continue working. You can do this once a week to once a month depending on how often you wash. Deep conditioning: a more potent version than a regular conditioner. You keep this on your hair for a prolonged period of time, about 10-30 minutes. Best to use after a clarifying wash as it will do a better job of restoring the needed moisture after stripping. Do not do this every wash day as it might weigh your hair down.

    I've had my Shark hyperair for a little over a year and it's starting to have issues with overheating... so I was looking at hair dryers today in case it craps out. I really hope it doesn't because the diffuser is the best one ever. But this is an interesting option. Definitely don't wanna spend the money on a Dyson (I've heard similar stories of it crapping out/overheating after a year as well). But I had been using high heat on my Shark for like the last month or so, because I realized my hair came out so much better when I did. Sad I might not be able to keep using high heat :(

    It sounds like you might need to clarify your hair. I highly recommend the Ion Crystal clarifying packette you can get at Sally Beauty. It's cheap and works soooo well. I paired it with the Sauce Beauty mask and my hair has never been softer or shinier.
