$13 Wash Day Routine! Curls On A Budget | BiancaReneeToday

Can you really get a salon-worthy wash day for under $50? Last week I spent $1,000 on a wash day routine… so this week I flipped it and tried to build the most affordable wash day possible — shampoo, conditioner, one styler, and a diffuser — using mostly Sally Beauty finds. The results genuinely surprised me. 👀

Watch to the end for the $1,000 vs $46 curl comparison!

🛍️ EVERYTHING I USED:

Sally Beauty
▸ Cantu Sulfate-Free Cleansing Cream Shampoo (13.5 oz) — $6.49 https://www.sallybeauty.com/hair-care/shop-by-product/shampoo/color-protection-shampoo/sulfate-free-cleansing-cream-shampoo/SBS-459069.html

▸ Cantu Sulfate-Free Hydrating Cream Conditioner — $5.99 (often BOGO 50% off → as low as $2.99) https://www.sallybeauty.com/hair-care/textured-and-curly-hair-care/conditioner/sulfate-free-hydrating-cream-conditioner/SBS-459070.html

▸ Wet Line Xtreme Professional Styling Gel — 17 oz $3.69 / 35 oz jug $6.79 https://www.sallybeauty.com/hair-care/shop-by-product/hair-styling-products/xtreme-wet-line-styling-gel/SBS-443416.html

▸ The Unbrush Detangling Brush — ~$14 on Amazon

▸ Revlon Ionic Ceramic Hair Dryer + Diffuser — $32.97 at Walmart https://walmrt.us/4vAzSOt

💸 The math: Shampoo $6.49 + Conditioner ($2.99 on sale) + Gel $3.69 = about $13 if you air dry. Add the $32.97 diffuser and you're still UNDER $50 total. All sulfate & silicone free.
