How My Daughter Got Her Hair This Long

Wash your hair with Redken Shampoo, then rinse.

✨ Pour a little of the Malibu C powder into your wet hand and add a few drops of water to dissolve it. Apply it directly to your hair, working a little at a time until the packet is gone.

✨ Massage it into your scalp, roots, and through the lengths of your hair for at least 3 minutes. This is the most important step because it allows the treatment to break down hard water buildup and fully detox your hair.

✨ Rinse thoroughly.

✨ Follow with Redken Acidic Bonding Concentrate Conditioner (or your favorite deep conditioner). Your hair cuticle is open after the treatment, making it the perfect time for your hair to absorb moisture and strengthening ingredients.

✨ Let the conditioner sit for several minutes before rinsing with water that’s slightly warmer than lukewarm. Finish with a cool rinse if you’d like extra shine.

✨ Gently towel dry, then apply Aveda Botanical Repair Strengthening Leave-In Treatment through your mid-lengths and ends before styling.

This routine leaves my hair feeling incredibly clean, soft, bouncy, and shiny. My roots stay fresher longer, my hair has more volume, and it feels like I just walked out of the salon. It also helps reduce tangles and gives my hair a smooth, healthy finish.

If you struggle with hard water, this combination has become one of my favorite hair care routines.
