5 Signs It’s Time To Break Up With Your Hair Routine

A licensed Cosmetologist has entered the conversation: not every hair routine is a healthy relationship. Holding onto routines that stopped serving your hair years ago-have your hair screaming for help.

Here are five signs it’s time to start a new hair routine. I know habits are hard to break, it’s time to start fresh with something that works-for your hair, your lifestyle and your goals.

1. Your Hair Hits An Extended Plateau

It’s not growing, it’s not getting thicker, your hair hasn’t improved in months (or years). It is time to re-evaluate. Healthy hair should show some kind of progress, with consistent growing, shedding and dormant intervals. If it’s not, your current routine may be the problem. 

I know, you thought you did everything right, it’s ok, it’s not your hair, it’s the routine.

2. You’re Still Using the Same Products from 2015

Listen Linda- Is it product loyalty or you don’t know what to buy? Your hair changes with age, hormones, stress, and the environment. What worked six months ago, may not work today, for many reasons. If you haven’t had a professional asses your product game within the last 90 days, it might be time for a product overhaul so you’re not wasting time and money.

3.  Wash Day is a Whole-Day Production

If wash day still takes six hours, it’s time to reconsider this routine. There are more efficient, effective methods out there that don’t involve all your Sunday and half your sanity.

4.  You’re Constantly “Protective Styling” But Never Seeing Results

Protective styles are supposed to help your hair thrive-but if you’re jumping from style to style with no real plan, you might be hiding damage instead of fixing it.

5. You’re Guessing Instead of Learning

The internet is full of tips, but let’s be honest: trial and error get old. There’s real power in partnering with a professional who knows your hair, your goals, and how to guide you there with intention-not guess work.

The Bottom Line?

If any of these hit home, it’s time to start a new routine. A healthier routine is possible-with the right guidance and a little patience.
