8 Luxe Products You Need For A Very Hairy Christmas
At this point in the game, I've redirected my excitement for Christmas from the expectation of gifts to just enjoying the season and all that it offers.
(Christmas music's been bumping since late October. Just sayin'.)
Now, the few gifts that I do get are all things that will make adulting a smoother process on a daily basis. And you know what? The adult in me gets ecstatic when I open that new electric spiralizer (family, if you're reading this *wink, wink*). I could think of a million teeny-weeny things that would make incredible stocking stuffers, and since big chopping my hair this year, my whole wish list of hair products have, without hesitation, been added to the list of valuable stuffers that one could gift me via stocking.
However, if it's your generosity that's on ten and you think I deserve a little more than a couple travel sized Shea Moisture products plus a few sample size packets of Miss Jessie's in my little red bag, then you should maybe definitely keep reading to check out this list of fancy fly hair necessities that will make for a very hairy Christmas and an even happier new year.
Add these 8 luxe gifts to your wish list and hopefully someone who loves you will bless you:
Warm Slap by Grace Eleyae, $44.95.
Silk is a woke girl's best friend. Natural or on the creamy crack, you know the damage that fabric can do to your strands. However, when the winter comes, that all goes out the door because I'm putting warmth over everything.
Thanks to Grace Eleyae's Warm Slap, or satin lined cap, there's no longer a reason to choose between the two. Be warm. Be cute. Be conscious of your hair's health. The caps fit like a beanie style, leaving hair out up front, but if you have a full head of hair, I'm certain that you can get away with wearing it all the way on top of your head.

Tyler James Williams Explains Why His And Quinta Brunson 'Abbott Elementary' Characters Should Remain Friends
While Abbott Elementary fans are hoping that Janine and Gregory end up together, the show’s star has another take. Tyler James Williams plays Gregory on the Emmy award-winning sitcom, and he recently stopped by The Jennifer Hudson Show to share his point of view on his storyline with Janine, which Quinta Brunson plays.
“I hate to say it. I know that everybody’s always mad at me for this. I don’t necessarily want to see them together,” he revealed. “It’s partially an actor’s choice, but also somebody who, like, I read a lot of scripts all the time. I watch a lot of TV, a lot of film. I don’t think that we see displays of platonic love between two people often. I think it’s really easy to go right to they have feelings for each other, therefore they should be together. I like this dynamic of exploring withholding that and just actively loving each other where they are. That I like to see more.”
If you recall, they were co-workers who became friends but were secretly crushing on each other. They’ve had many awkward run-ins during and after school, like the unforgettable club scene where they were dancing nervously with each other in season one, and in season two, they finally kiss. However, it only made things even more awkward, and they decided to just be friends. Tyler further explained why he thinks it’s important to showcase that type of relationship on screen.
“I think it’s time for that. I think TV allows people to see things that could be their lives for the first time, and I think seeing a healthy friendship that is deeply caring about one another in a work atmosphere needs to be shown more than the relationship,” he concluded.
Abbott Elementary comes on every Wednesday at 9 p.m. EST on ABC.
