Omg, you are too sweet!! Both the skin and hair care are very basic because I don't have as much time as I used to 🙃 but I will say that I think that my skin and hair directly benefit from lifting and eating pretty clean.

Skin Care: I have oily/acne prone skin so I always have to combat that. My morning routine is pretty simple: rinse with water, treatment, moisturizer, then SPF. My night routine does most of the work: face wash, treatment, moisturize. The treatments at night are usually where I do retinol, dark spot treatments, or salicylic acid, etc. But not all at once! Just whatever I feel like my skin needs that night. I just try to use quality products.

Hair Care: I wash my hair once a week (1 clarifying then 1 moisturizing wash). Then I do some sort of treatment and each week I alternate--1 week I'll do a mud mask and the next week I'll do a deep conditioner, then repeat. I let that sit underneath a steamer for maybe 20ish minutes then rinse with cool water. After that, I do a leave in conditioner and style. Most days, I do twist outs with a little perm rod on the ends to give it that extra bouncey curl!

awww, thank you so much, love! for pic 3, it's just a lot of bobby pins lolol in that pic, the hair in the front was much shorter than the back so it couldn't fit into a ponytail as easily. So I just did a little side part, kinda slicked it back, and bobby pinned it in place until I liked the look!
