2022 Empties Dump
It’s that time of the year again! The infamous yearly dump of empties post from so many bloggers, including myself. Empties posts are kind of like hitting the Best Sellers filter on some retail websites. It’s not what has the most top rated reviews but rather what people buy the most. In this case, it’s all about what products were thoroughly used until the containers became empty. It’s been a while since a yearly review of empties was posted. Remember the 2020 Self Care Empties post? Have a favorite empty? Drop a comment below or use #JustJenna on your favorite social platform!

Go-To Conditioner For Blondies
Bleaching your hair, especially if you have naturally dark hair, has it’s pros and cons. The biggest con that most blondies complain about is the damage that bleaching their hair creates. Dry, straw-like, rubberband breakage, and how weak the hair becomes. These problems require some intensive hair workouts and muscle building! Bleached hair is very high maintenance. Can you still bleach your hair and be a low maintenance person? The answer, yes! A satin pillowcase to sleep on and the correct conditioner are the key. Everyone has different hair types, so while some conditioners won’t work for some they will work for others. I have tried an endless amount of…

Most people have experienced flat hair at some point in their life. Fine, thin and thinning haired people nearly live the flat hair life. What do you do when hair remains flat no matter how many times you wash it, etc.? Enter the magic of root lifting/hair thickening products. I have tried a few different products in the past but gave up on them because they didn’t seem to work… until a little bottle entered my life as a hand-me-down. It sat in the bathroom cabinet for a while until one day I finally decided to use it. It was easy to use, simply spray on towel-dried hair and go,…
