Why You Should Always Do an Allergy Test Before Trying New Products (For Your Hair and Skin!)

Hey, friend! 🌟

I’ve gotta ask you – do you always test new products before slathering them all over your hair and skin? If not, this is your friendly reminder to take a minute to do a quick allergy test. I promise you, it’s the easiest way to avoid all kinds of unnecessary stress and irritation!

Whether it’s a new shampoo, conditioner, serum, or face cream, the excitement to try something new can sometimes cloud our judgment. But here’s the thing: skin and hair can be really sensitive, and even the gentlest formulas might not play well with your unique skin type or hair texture.

So here’s what you do: For both skin and hair products, apply a tiny amount (yes, just a dab) behind your ear or on your neck. Then, wait for 48 hours—this gives your skin the time it needs to react if it’s going to. If you don’t notice any redness, irritation, or weird sensations, you’re good to go! If you feel anything unusual, it’s probably time to move on to the next product. Better safe than sorry, right?

Doing this simple test before using a new product will save you from rashes, breakouts, or even allergic reactions that can leave your skin or scalp looking and feeling miserable. Believe me, you’ll be SO glad you took the extra time to check! 🙌🏼

I know, it might seem like a hassle, but I promise it’s 100% worth it. It’s all about loving your skin and hair in the safest way possible, so you can enjoy the glow-up without any of the setbacks. ✨
