Shrinkage, tangles and fairy knots suck.
Omg! That is a lot of hair in my hand (because of tangles, you will see shortly) and yes, that is what I get for not washing my hair for over 4 weeks. For some of you, you say what is the big deal, I only wash my hair once a month anyway, well I don’t. I usually, if I am on my regular schedule, which is being off Mondays would wash my hair once a week, but for the past 4-5 weeks I have been working 5 days a week and doing things every day after work and on weekends, so instead of taking the time to wash my…

What should I do? This day came must faster than expected. I knew that it was coming, but boy did it come upon me quickly. Here comes the day; the day (days) that I will be looking like a chipmunk or like one of Eddie Murphy’s characters in one of his famous movies.

Try Something New Tuesdays 1
Hello All! I have been gone for so long and I truly apologize for that. A lot of things have taken place, but the biggest thing is that my website has been updated. While the site was being worked on, I thought to myself, self, would you like to do new features. I said sure and one of those features should be a chance since I am so daring:), to try new things, so with that the said there are more features and things that I wish to cover, starting with this one:Try Something New Tuesdays. I will probably be referring to it as #TSNT.

How to: Flat Twist Demo
Hello Curlies. If you are a regular reader, then you know that I regularly have a hair wash episode and this week is not any different. After a day of getting up early and getting hubby to work, serving at my church and then visiting with my other family, trying not to pass out from heat exhaustion all while having a monthly visitor that I frankly do not want:), I had to come home and do my hair. Last week, I attempted to do a bantu knot out, but it takes a good day before my hair completely dries, so I would usually keep my hair in whatever state it…

Cantu Define and Shine Custard
These are the results of using the Cantu Define and Shine Custard at a distance and I say distance because in person it sucks. Here is my pro and con list: Pro: High definition Con: No Shine and Crunchy and Flakes See below the video showing application of the custard and also the results of the scalp soother. True enough, maybe I put too much product in, but I did not think so, but you tell me.

Head and Shoulders Moisture Care Line
Almost every week there what I would call, “Wash Day” and this particular week I decided to use Head and Shoulders Moisture Care Line Cowash and then followed up with a Deep Conditioner. The cowash was thick and did the job. My hair had not been washed in a good week which is not my usual deal, so I used the cowash and it did clean my hair nicely. I noticed that it did not leave my hair dry or stripped after using it.

18th Annual World Natural Hair, Health and Beauty Show Overview and Haul(#wnhs)
Let me start off by saying, for those of you who do not know, I have natural hair and the texture is basically 4b which means usually that the curl pattern is much tighter and coily. I tend to have a challenge with maintaining moisture in my hair after I wash my hair and keep it twisted or braided for a couple of days. The 3rd-4th day, I find my hair dry and itchy, so today I attended the World Natural Hair Show in search of knowledge from different vendors. My day started off a bit challenging because I had not gotten a lot of sleep before and it had…
