Hair Paint Shenanigans: Let’s Get Creative🎨

-

 

السلام عليكم ورحمة الله وبركاته أختي  مرحباً

Hey sisters, how’s it going this week? I hope y’all are feeling as amazing as I am! Thanks for coming back to check out what I’ve got cooking for you this time around. Let’s jump right into it!

So, I recently went through my product stash and came across these hair paints by As I Am. You might recognize the brand from my BGHCMP Series—if you haven’t checked that out yet, you definitely should! As I Am made it so easy for us to switch up our hair color without all the damage that comes with permanent dye.

Let me tell you, I dyed my hair with box dye back in 2018, and whew, I wouldn’t recommend it. I was going for that honey blonde look, but instead, I ended up somewhere between ginger and carrot top—LOL. It wasn’t totally awful, but the dryness, the texture change, and just the overall weakness in my hair afterward? Not worth it.

That’s why finding these hair paints was, and still is, a game changer. When I use them, I stick to the LCO method—Leave-In, Cream, Oil—for maximum hydration. Trust me, you don’t want to put this on oily hair; your strands need to soak it all up!

Recently, I tried the blue and gold shades, and let me tell you—obsessed! The gold gives more of a blonde vibe, and the blue came out looking absolutely stunning. The curl definition? Insane. I rocked it in flat twists for a few days, then switched it up with a twist-out. My hair stayed hydrated, moisturized, and poppin’ for a solid nine days.

Now, I’ll keep it real—when making wudu, I had to be extra careful. Instead of fully drenching my hands with water, I gently wiped my hair using the least amount of water possible. It took a little extra effort, but for the vibrant color and how real it looks? Totally worth it.

And here’s the best part: As I Am carries this product in 14 different shades for just $7.99 a jar. Yes, you heard that right—affordable and effective! Depending on your hair length, you can get 3-4 uses out of one jar, so a little goes a long way.

So, what are you waiting for? Check it out and let me know in the comments which color you’d try. And girl, don’t dye your hair—just grab some hair paint and thank me later! Ma Salaama 🌟





These are the two colors I used.

🌙Eid Getaway: Canada 🧳

السلام عليكم ورحمة الله وبركاته أختي   مرحباً   Hey Sista, It’s been a minute... Eid Mubarak to All! Ramadan—the most beautiful of guests—has come and gone. I pray it was merciful to you, rewarding, and full of light. I pray your fasts were accepted, your duas heard, and that Allah continues to shower you in His mercy. As for me, this Ramadan was one I’ll never forget. I met amazing sisters, shared heartfelt iftars, and reconnected with beautiful souls I hadn’t seen in a while. One highlight was attending Abaya Mall , a beloved event here in my city. When I say packed , I mean shoulder-to-shoulder, mashaa’Allah! Sisters were getting henna done, selling homemade sea moss drinks, pastries, and those viral Arabian perfumes and air fresheners (you know the ones that linger in the best way). Of course, the stars of the show were the abaya vendors—Baytul Hayaa and Covered in Modesty. (Sis, support your sisters—I'll link their shops below!) I left with a warm pastry and a bottl...

Blog Entry #??? Date: August 3, 2024 Location: Al Salaam City, Egypt As Salaamu Alaykunna, My Beautiful Sisters — Ahlan Wa Sahlan, Welcome! It’s been a while since my last entry, so I thought I’d try something new. Just me interviewing myself—reflecting and reconnecting with y’all in a chill, real way. Nothing too formal, just a little sit-down to catch up. Q: So, how are you? Where have you been? A: Alhamdulilah, I’ve been good. My travel cup is full and honestly, running over. It’s been beautiful. I’ve had to remind myself often— girl, be present , soak it all in, because soon enough I’ll be back home, probably missing it. I got to spend Eid Al-Adha in Toronto, Canada, which was special. Then not long after, I made my way here to Cairo. Now I’m in my final week in Egypt and just taking it all in. Alhamdulilah for everything. Q: What’s the most memorable dish you’ve made since we last heard from you? A: Definitely this salad I used to make almost every day back home. ...

السلام عليكم ورحمة الله وبركاته أختي   مرحباً   Fall Reflections It’s October 30th, 2025. It’s been officially fall for a month now. I haven’t written any blog posts in a while… I miss you all, and frankly, there’s been a lot on my mind. This season is by far one of my favorites, but I don’t think I’ve been doing myself justice. I haven’t taken my usual walks in nature or jumped and stomped on the leaves like I usually do. Thankfully, we still have some time,  In shaa Allah. I’ve gone through some serious changes recently. I moved, and with relocating comes— you guessed it— unpacking, redecorating, reacclimating, and pretty much the whole nine yards. It has been such a metamorphic experience. I’m slowly getting used to waking up in a new place and enjoying all this newfound peace here — it’s truly amazing. I’ve also been very occupied with my book club, which has been going strong since the summer. We’ve already read three books, and we’re currently reading  Whe...
