We’ve always known that mothers are resilient superheroes, but the last two years have multiplied and underscored this absolute fact. Between working, keeping up with the family, and becoming homeschool teachers virtually overnight, moms proved once and for all there is nothing they can’t do.
This spring, we’re hopeful as ever that we can resume our Mother’s Day brunches, dinners, and get-togethers, and we look forward to showering all of the moms in our lives with the love and appreciation they deserve. What better way to delight a hard-working mom on Mother’s Day than with a little self-care moment?
Whether you’re also a mom looking to send a little token of love, a partner looking to show a lot of appreciation, or a child hoping to send all the love, if you need a thoughtful Mother’s Day gift idea, Hair.com has you covered.

For the Mom Who Recently Reinvented Herself
As mothers, it can be easy to fall into a rut or a daily routine, and we’d be lying if we said we hadn’t made a rash decision to color our hair to spice things up! Whether you regret the move or absolutely love your new hair hue, keeping a good recovery system on hand is imperative to maintaining hair’s health after such a drastic change.
