My new night-time supplement + brow routine 🖤

I’ve been dealing with MASSIVE hair shedding the last few months — like… even my brows dipped out 😭.
And if you have curly hair, you already know how heartbreaking that is. So I’m giving my body everything it needs to bounce back.

Here’s the combo I’m taking nightly👇🏽

✨ Solgar Gentle Iron (Iron Bisglycinate)
• Supports healthy red blood cells
• Boosts oxygen + nutrient delivery to the follicles
• Helps reduce shedding caused by low iron
• Gentle on the stomach (no nausea)

✨ Quercetin Complex
• Anti-inflammatory support
• Helps calm an irritated scalp environment
• Supports immune balance (so your hair can stay in growth mode instead of stress mode)

✨ Cold-Pressed Castor Oil (Brows + Lashes)
• Hydrates and conditions
• Strengthens fragile brow + lash hairs
• Helps reduce breakage
• Gives the appearance of thicker, fuller brows/lashes over time

I’m also doing a big chop to reset my curls and stop carrying damaged, weakened ends into a new season. Fresh start for my hair ✨

⏱️ When You’ll See Results

Everyone is different, but realistic expectations:
• Brows/Lashes: 4–6 weeks to see improvement in softness + fullness
• Scalp/Hair Shedding: 6–12 weeks once iron stores start rising
• Overall Hair Density: 3–6 months of consistency

Healing hair takes TIME, patience, and a routine that actually supports your body — inside and out.

I’ll keep you posted on my progress. If you’re shedding too… you’re not alone 🖤

This morning wasn’t gym vibes — Lola and I had a late start and honestly, my anxiety was LOUD.
So instead of forcing myself into a workout, I sat with it.
Guided breathing. Hands on heart. Just… being human for a minute.

Yesterday I missed the gym too because I went to celebrate my bestie’s birthday — life be life-ing sometimes.

Today I’m tired, but I’m still here. Still choosing myself in small ways.
If I get movement in later, cool.
If not, I’m still proud of me for slowing down and listening to my body.

✨Presence over pressure.
✨Grace over guilt.
✨One day at a time.
