Cause & Effect - Putting a demi-permanent color in my hair along with a relaxer, really started making my hair break off. A lot was coming out but you couldn’t tell because my hair is really thick. We wanted to salvage my hair, so we didn’t just cut it all off; but it does get shorter and shorter as the season goes on.

Salon Recovery - I’m always very careful with my hair now. I go to Phyto Universe salon in NYC. They don’t color and they don’t cut hair, but they do certain treatments and they style. The woman that styles my hair for the show, along with my stylist from Phyto, both ensure that I’m always using the right products.
