Sunday Wash Day Vibes: From Chore to Crown Care with HNO Haircare
It’s your girl Tee, and you already know what time it is—wash day! But before you start groaning and reaching for that old bonnet, let me put you on. Wash day doesn’t have to be a dreaded task at all. In fact, with the right products (hellooo, Herbs & Oils Haircare Essentials) and a whole lot of love, it can turn into the ultimate self-care ritual.
Let’s make wash day something you actually look forward to. Grab your products, light a candle, turn on your playlist, and let’s get into it!
✨ Step 1: Set the Vibe
Lets be real, this isn’t just about hair—this is literally about a whole experience, okay? So before you even touch a product set the mood, relax, clear your mind, and create the vibe you been craving for all week!
-
Light a candle and make a cup of tea, better yet a glass of wine!
-
Throw on your favorite playlist
-
Tie up the kids (just kidding... kinda)
-
Take a deep breath and remember: this is your time
💆🏽♀️ Step 2: Pre-Poo Like a Pro (with HNO Oils, of course)
If you’ve been skipping this step... stop right now and read this twice. Pre-pooing is your hair’s warm-up before the main event, and it can be a game-changer in keeping your curls soft, strong, and happy.
Use HNO’s Last Call Finishing Oil or The Tonic to pre-poo. These are packed with goodness to hydrate, detangle, and prep your hair, especially if it’s been up in a style all week. Section your hair and apply the oil directly to your scalp and strands. Take your time—massage your scalp, and show it some love.
💡 Tee Tip: Pre-poo while binge-watching your latest fave—it makes the process feel way less like a chore.
🧼 Step 3: Cleanse Without the Stripping – Naturally Bubbly Shampoo
Let’s clear this up right now: HNO’s Naturally Bubbly Shampoo is NOT your average shampoo. It’s sulfate-free, gentle, and created to cleanse your scalp without stripping your natural oils. That means clean, healthy hair that still feels soft and hydrated afterward.
✨ Gentle cleanse
✨ Rich, luxurious lather
✨ Smells amazing
✨ Kind to curls and coils
Focus on your scalp—use the pads of your fingers to gently lift buildup and let the suds do the rest down your strands.

🧖🏾♀️ Step 4: Deep Condition & Detangle with Top It Off Conditioner
Now it’s time to give your strands that TLC. Top It Off Conditioner is rich, creamy, and loaded with ingredients that replenish moisture and improve elasticity—basically, everything your curls crave.
Apply it generously from mid-shaft to ends and detangle gently with your fingers or a wide-tooth comb. Let it sit for 15–30 minutes (the longer, the better if your hair is feeling extra needy).
Optional but bougie: Wrap your hair in a warm towel or use a steamer to really let that moisture sink in.
💦 Step 5: Moisturize, Seal & Style Like a Queen or King
After rinsing, blot your hair gently with a microfiber towel or T-shirt (no rough towels). Then spray on The Tonic for lightweight moisture and follow up with Last Call Finishing Oil to seal it in and add shine.
Style your hair however you love—twist-out, puff, braids, or just let your curls bounce free. Whatever you choose, your hair will be hydrated, nourished, and glowing.
