Let’s be real—my hair has been struggling. Pregnancy has completely changed my normal hair routine, and honestly, my hair hasn’t been the same since having Forge. It’s drier, more brittle, and I can already see the early signs of postpartum shedding creeping in. I knew I needed to get ahead of this before it got worse, so I started researching solutions, determined to find something that could help me maintain my hair and maybe even improve it.
That’s when I stumbled across Monat.
Now, here’s where things took an unexpected turn. In a moment of desperation (hello, hormones and panic over postpartum hair loss!), I went ahead and signed up—without fully understanding what I was getting into. After onboarding, I had a sinking realization: Had I just joined a pyramid scheme? I was convinced I had made a huge mistake and was now stuck with products I assumed wouldn’t work. I was honestly embarrassed I hadn’t even tried them before jumping in. My plan? Accept the loss, use what I had, and move on quietly.
Well… I was wrong.
After just one use, I noticed a difference. I wasn’t expecting much, but my hair felt softer, smoother—like it had life again. That’s when I decided to take a step back and really compare. Was this just a fluke, or was there something to these products? I put Monat head-to-head with my usual routine, determined to see if the results were real.
Here’s What I Noticed Right Away:
Less hair loss – I braced myself for the usual clumps of hair in the shower and on my brush, but to my surprise, there was barely any.
Stronger, healthier feel – My hair didn’t just feel healthier—it actually was healthier. Less breakage, fewer split ends, and a noticeable difference in elasticity (meaning it wasn’t snapping as easily when brushing or styling).
Lightweight but Deeply Hydrating – Unlike heavy conditioners that just coat the hair, this actually absorbed into my strands, leaving my hair moisturized without weighing it down or making it greasy.
Clean, Concentrated Formula = More Bang for Your Buck – I used half of what I normally would, yet my hair still felt completely nourished. Since these products are more concentrated than drugstore brands, they last longer, making them worth the investment.
Salon-Worthy Scent – I’m a sucker for good-smelling hair products, and these are next-level. The fresh, luxurious fragrance lingers in the best way—think salon vibes at home.
Monat Products I Tried First:
Smoothing Anti- Frizz Shampoo and Conditioner- A little goes a long way, and the scent is absolutely divine! They did a great job taming frizz, but what truly impressed me were the aftercare products—they took my results to the next level!
Bond- Fortifying Hair Leave-in Creme – The moment I applied it to my hands, I could tell this was a high-quality product. As soon as I worked it through my hair, I felt an instant difference—smoother, more nourished, and incredibly soft.
Rejuvabeads Split End Mender –This is a game-changer! It seamlessly mends split ends, leaving hair looking healthier, smoother, and revitalized. I've never experienced anything like it!
Unknot Detangler – I struggle with stubborn knots under my neck that usually take forever to brush out, causing major hair breakage. But with just a couple of sprays of this magic, my knots melted away effortlessly! Brushing was a breeze, and I barely lost any hair—even with so many tangles!
I was shocked. I wasn’t expecting this at all, but I am so pleasantly surprised and excited to continue using these products.
