Meghan Trainor is the kind of person that you’d meet in a bar bathroom and instantly become friends with. She just has the energy of someone who would hype you up as you put on your lip gloss in the mirror and tell you she thinks you look pretty. In fact, when I sat down to talk with her in a sun-soaked room at the Public Hotel in Lower Manhattan, she made me feel like a million bucks every few minutes—pausing to compliment my makeup, laughing at all the right moments, and exuding a warmth that’s no doubt part of the reason she’s risen to fame. 

I met Trainor right before her new book, Dear Future Mama, hit the shelves. The book is a funny, realistic guide for expecting mothers. It’s touted as “a TMI guide to pregnancy, birth, and motherhood from your bestie,” which couldn’t feel more true to Trainor, who is famously very TMI. We know quite a bit about her and her husband Daryl Sabara (of Spy Kids fame), like how they have two toilets in their bathroom to use at the same time. 

The “All About That Bass” singer’s transparent nature is part of the reason that Nexxus chose to partner with her for its Unbreakable Care collection. As Trainor is currently pregnant and experiencing hair damage, the partnership was a no-brainer. 

“[The Unbreakable Care collection] is taking care of the root issues of thinning hair and breakage and all this stuff that I’m dealing with,” says Trainor. “I was like, ‘I’ve needed this for so long. Thank you so much.’ I’m pregnant right now, so I need a product that will be here for me during this part and the postpartum. I’m glad I found it now. I wish I had it in my first pregnancy, but that’s okay.”

Since discovering the products, Trainor has been using the shampoo and conditioner from the Unbreakable Care line every day. “It’s in my shower, and I packed it and brought it to New York. That’s all I use now, which is great,” she says. “And the root spray is nice if I’m trying to do my hair and do a blowout and go be fancy somewhere or if I do a podcast or something.”

She finds the products especially helpful considering she washes her hair every day. “I went to a doctor years ago and was like, ‘Dude, my hair just doesn’t grow. What is it? What’s wrong?’ He looked at each pore, and [there] was guck blocking [them],” Trainor says. From there, she took the doctor’s advice and started washing her hair daily—something most of us have been trained not to do—and has had better hair because of it, particularly during pregnancy, when she noticed her hair getting more damaged.  

Hair damage is one of the many things that Trainor has dealt with during pregnancy. At the American Music Awards last November, Trainor felt like she won the night because she loved her look, but behind the scenes, she was dealing with another pregnancy side effect that isn’t often discussed: cramps. 

“I was cramping so bad,” says Trainor. “I texted my doctor sitting in the seats like, ‘Dude, are you sure cramping is okay because this feels violent.’ And she was like, ‘It’s because you’re in heels. Cramping is totally normal. It’s just spooky. You’re okay.’ So I didn’t feel great, but I looked great.”
