Hair It Ferst

 This week on Hair It First, we dive into greenwashing—what it is, why it’s everywhere, and how brands might be fooling you with “clean” claims. But don’t worry, we keep it real (and a little unhinged) with debates about flaming snack foods, a piece of toast that refuses to mold, and whether “ammonia-free” actually means anything. If you’ve ever questioned what’s really in your products—or just want a laugh—this episode is for you. 

 The girls kick things off planning their dream bunker (complete with slides and millionaire budgets), but quickly derail into a passionate—and hilarious—rant about hair products, buildup, and why mixing cheap shampoo with the good stuff is basically a crime. Come for the doomsday prep, stay for the unexpected masterclass in reading ingredient labels. 

 What do dolphins, NASA, and fraudulent Starbucks charges have in common? Absolutely nothing—and that’s exactly why this episode works. The girls spiral from wild dolphin conspiracy theories into heated debates about the moon landing, school half days, and the modern banking nightmare. It’s unfiltered, unpredictable, and unintentionally hilarious… just the way we like it.

 This episode is a full-blown rollercoaster. From Tessa getting emotionally wrecked by a fake miniature cow situation (we’re still not over it), to Glowcon karaoke plans getting wildly out of hand, to a deep dive into ancestry surprises and family chaos—this one has it all. Oh, and somehow we end up researching “sex chocolates” and making it worse. As always, we promise nothing… except laughs, oversharing, and a little secondhand embarrassment. 

Grab a coffee and settle in with Tessa, Michelle, and Monica as they talk about the messy, funny, and meaningful moments that led them to join FermaGlo. Between allergies, motherhood chaos, and honest talk about clean beauty, this episode is a reminder that purpose can show up right when you need it most.✨ Disclaimer: The hosts are not medical professionals.
