If you’re pregnant, you probably don’t need us to tell you that pregnancy can do some pretty crazy things to your hair. For some lucky moms-to-be, it gets thicker and shinier. For others, it can get dry and frizzy and even thin a bit (eeek!). Watch this video to see what our expert says on why pregnancy wreaks havoc on your hair and what you can do to help it.

How to Make Over Your Beauty Routine for Pregnancy

One of our sisters at The Blush recently discovered how great baby products can be for adults. I don’t have much time to stock up on personal beauty products, so I’ve reached for the kids’ Burt’s Bees lotion or California Baby body wash in a pinch plenty of times. I’ve been pleasantly surprised at how well they’ve worked for me too! Now when we travel I can just pack one set of shampoo/conditioner (my fave is the Circle of Friends line). Using them not only makes my hair easy to comb but I come out smelling like bananas, how great is that?!

You’d also be surprised with all the ways Lansinoh nipple cream can come in handy. Another time, perhaps.
