My Formulate Experience

Hello babes, 

   I hope your day is treating you well! If you follow along on Instagram, then you know I keep my life pretty superficial. On my blog though, it's my little space and if you find your way to it, then I consider that enough to learn more deeply about me. So here I am. With what I'm trying to accomplish on this little space of mine and making Instagram my number one platform, just know this...I LOATHE the word 'influencer'. I would love to be considered as an 'inspirationalist' but is that even a word?! I do know this much, I look like a 5 year old without makeup, I'm super pale without fake tanner and I am losing my hair. Well, I was until I was introduced to FORMULATE. 

   I am a mother of two that suffered from PPD but never got it taken care of professionally. I just sucked it up and turned to God to get me through. Along with PPD, I also suffered from postpartum hair loss, you may ask how or where?! But let's just say I have hidden it well! It's mainly around the edges of my scalp and eyebrows. Though there aren't any bald spots, the thinning is definitely there. I have tried everything from staying on prenatal vitamins, Biotin scalp scrubs, Nioxin and even using Rogaine regularly. Although some of these worked, it never brought my hair back to it's full potential. 

   Now, onto my newest and favorite little secret, FORMULATE! It has been such a game changer for me.If you are wondering about it, you can click on the link above BUT I'm going to tell you all about my experience with them and how it has personally helped me. When you go to their site, you will be asked several questions for all your hair needs and wants. They even ask what area you live in for humidity purposes. All my southern girls with the frizzy hair issues, stand up! Once they formulate your shampoo and conditioner, they ship it out to ya and voila! So, I've had three shipments so far but that is only because the first two left this residue like feeling in my hair. I use them now for "treatment" washes and when I won't be going anywhere a few days. Formulate was generous enough to work with me in getting the right concoction so I can see this product to it's fullest potential. 

   Ever since starting this shampoo and conditioner duo, I have noticed my hair is thicker, healthier AND those thinning areas around the edges of my hairline are starting to fill back in! My husband even made a comment about my hair looking healthier than usual, I just did a #hairflip and responded with, "It's all in my Formulate, baby!" HA! Bless his heart, he has to deal with my cray the rest of his life. Overall, whatever your hair needs may be, I highly recommend giving this brand a shot! It will either do nothing for you or be a life changer like it has been for me. With thinning hair and being into beauty and fashion like I am, it can definitely take a toll on your self esteem and even depression. So, thank you FORMULATE for helping this mama regain her thinning locks along with adding some points back to my self esteem!
