It felt like I had been searching my whole life for hair products that did what they said they would. I tried EVERYTHING, from the cheapest of the cheap (remember Suave Coconut shampoo, I still die over the smell…it brings me back), to the expensive (Aveda, Wen, and all that kind.) I never found one line that did what I wanted, and never found a mix of products that did what I needed. I have thin, very dry hair, that has steadily fallen out for the last decade or so. I constantly bought new products to see if it would be the miracle I was looking for. Spoiler alert: I never found it.)
Until Monat.
My friend Jenny asked me to try it out a year ago and I first said no. I had been using Wen and I thought I loved it. Yet my hair needed a lot of product and styling to make it look passable, and it really wasn’t making my hair nicer (it actually fell out more.) The ends were dry and my scalp was oily. Not a good combo. Finally last November I was ready, and the first time I tried Monat I almost died. You first thing you notice is the softness, because MAN, does Monat deliver on that. Then you notice how quickly it styles, and how little products you need.
Monat works as a treatment system, so as it balances your hair and scalp and strips your hair of silicone’s and other yucky bi-products of most hair products, your hair just gets better and better.
The shine also came back, something I haven’t seen in a long time! I’ve noticed tons of new growth around my hairline, too (Monat is clinically proven to regrow hair!) It is also botanically based, with no parabens, gluten, GMOs, harmful fragrances and colors, harsh salt systems, sulfates, animal byproducts, and phthalates. I use this stuff on myself and my kids, so no yucky chemicals for us;)
I loved Monat so much I immediately signed up to sell it, despite side eyeing direct sales people for years. (I’m sorry! I get it now. It is the new age of work life. I’ve drank the Kool-Aid, I’m hooked!)
I can go three or four days between washes. I use four products only, blow dry and style less, and my hair looks and feels better than it ever has. When I say how happy I am with Monat, I actually find it is hard to express, because having hair we feel happy with seems so trivial, yet it is not. I love shampooing my hair, I love how my hair looks and feels, and to be 35 and be able to say this finally is pretty amazing.
Here’s my challenge to you: comment below and tell me what you have the most trouble with when it comes to your hair. I’d love to start a conversation and get you a sample of Monat to try. Your hair needs a summer Monat vacation! I KNOW you will love it, as I do.
If you’d like to chat about the Monat oppotunity (it’s crazy awesome!), email me at becauseofjackie(at)yahoo(dot)com, subject line MONAT OPPORTUNITY, and we can chat!
