No matter which way you fold it, life is tough for everyone in some shape or form during la quarantina. Some states are opening, while others remain, but either way, SHEisDOPE made a list of things to do at home.

So, there’s no need to go into detail of what we’re dealing with, but this guide is to help you find some normalcy and inner peace (while social distancing). Go ahead and grab your favorite beverage/snacks and let’s get to it.

Hair/Skin/Nails 💅🏾
We can’t stop by the nail salon nor see our hair stylists….SO WHAT? When did we become so self-inefficient? Once you’re in the correct head space, pick whatever body part you want to work on, and focus on that one part. Then, you can do another part on a different day. Others may feel safe to visit their local salons, but it’s up to you at this point.

Get that skin buttery smooth during the quarantina!

Shany has hella beauty products, but the nail art is cute enough to make you feel like you left a salon. Check out Shany’s nail polishes and nail lamps, too. Trust and believe that bae would appreciate it as well.

Own those curls and treat your scalp, honey!

2. #QuarantineAndChill 📺

If you’re looking for a good show, Insecure has returned! YES! Issa, you’re timing is phenomenal. Also, if you’ve always wondered about Madam CJ Walker, Self Made is entertaining, informational, and filled with hella, “Oh no she didn’t’s!”

All American is a little cheesy, but like Cheetos Puffs cheesy, because it’s addictive and so good! Taye Diggs plays a football coach and that’s entertaining in itself.

Insecure

Will Issa and Lawrence get back together? Who knows!?

The Banker

Being a black businessman back in the day is tough, and who doesn’t love Samuel L. Jackson? Great movie.

Self Made

The OG of hair products is highlighted and truths are told.

The Kitchen

If you can’t stand the heat, then get out of the kitchen…literally. Women as mob bosses….it doesn’t get any better than that!

High Fidelity

Revisiting your Top 5 heartbreaks can’t be the best idea during quarantine, but watching Zoë do it is just fine!

Little Fires Everywhere

Rich vs. Poor, Black vs. White and Kerry Washington’s cringy face, but worth a tune-in.

All American

If you like drama x football, this is for you.

Blow the Man Down

Two sisters and a body….what could possibly go wrong?

3. #QuarantineAndVibe 👽

If you’re looking for new vibes, plus some oldies, listen to this SHEisDOPE curated playlist. It’s woman-dominated, but if it’s a vibe, it’s a vibe. So, if you like Doja, Rico Nasty, and indie sounds, press play!
