Scarves not just for your neck


This isn't a secret and I'm sure most of you guys have worn a scarf around your head. I just want to promote the head wrap even more. Its just a good protective style (as long as you don't tie it to tight). You don't even need to really touch your hair when your do a head warp. Today, I did a co-washed and I didn't realize how late I was running. I didn't have time to condition and style. So I didn't know what to do with my hair. I grabbed a black scarf I bought from Walmart and I did a low bun head warp. Before I wrapped my hair I put my cantu leave in conditioner and my africa's best oils in my hair then wrapped it. Omgosh I feel that my hair got a nice condition. AND IT LOOKED CUTE.

My hair Reg

Since the big chop I had so much freedom with my hair. I can finally wash my hair as much as I want and thats a problem. I love getting my hair wet now. So I trying to make myself wait 3 days to wash my hair. Also I'm only going to wash my hair with shampoo once a month.
Evert 3 days: Co-wash

I bought VO5 Tea Therapy Clarifyinh conditioner: Vanilla mint teat
It smells soo good. I bought this at CVS but can be found all over. I only paid $1.17 plus tax, it is so cheap. So I'm going to use this as a co-wash because the texture is very light. I don't think you can get a real condition out of this product, so i would only recomend this as a co-wash product. I also add a table of baking soda because its a natural clarifyer and exfoliant.

Every other day: Mega Tek

Click the label that say mega tek on the right for further info.

Every other day: Oil ends with Afirca's Best Herbal Oil

I found this stuff in my bathroom and it was full. Also, I knew its been there for a while cause it was dusty. So I thought I could get some use out of this. Its not bad It doesn't smeel and I read the ingerdient and its full of diffrent oils. So I use to to moisturize my ends after a wash.

Every Month: Shampoo

I haven't found a good shampoo that I like yet. So, I'll keep looking but I know I'll only shampoo once. No rinse and repeat for me.

Happy Holidays

I hope everyones 4th of a July weekend was fun and everyone enjoyed themselves!

13th Review: Miss Jessie's Stretch Silkening Creme

So I was in ricky's again and was looking at the miss jessie products and picked up little bottles of miss Jessie's stretch silkening creme and miss Jessie's rapid recovery. I will do a separate review on the Rapid Recovery. Now I bought this for the stretching part, which it didn't do. Maybe when I have some length maybe it will work better. Between the miss jessie's curly puddy and miss jessie stretch silkening creme, I liked the curly puddy much more. The Strecth Silkening creme wasn't as thick, creamy and sticky as the Miss Jessie's curly puddy but that what I like about the curly puddy. Also it didn't have a strong scent. But I will have to put this in the Maybe Later.

12th Review: Coconut Cream Relaxer Update

Yes, I finally did the coconut cream relaxer and I'm making this my biggest longest review so far. If you are new to my blog I did brief review about the coconut cream relaxer. So go to the left side, and click Coconut Cream Relaxer under labels. I gave the whole synapsis about the relaxer. I the ONLY thing i will repeat is that it doesn't actually relax your hair like a chemical relaxer. It just helps with dryness and shrinkage. The only thing i changed from my recipe would be the lemon juice. I swapped the lemon juice for baking soda. Again baking soda is my new love but i still like green tea. The reason I decided to use baking soda is because of the BAKING SODA CONDITIONER TREATMENT, so i thought i could kill 2 birds with 1 stone and if it comes out nice I will continue to add it. I kept this on for 1 and 1/2 hours. A lot of people keep this on for longer but since I added baking Soda it made it more concerted , so I was a little scared to leave it on for over an 1 and 1/2 hours. While I had this mixture on my head, I had all these feelings. It might sounds cheesy but I was so nervous, and couldn't wait to see results. For the first 30 minutes I wrapped a warm towel around my head then I got hungry. For the last 20 minutes I wrapped a warm towel around my head. After I did a deep condition today I add so much moisture, only because I'm doing the mega tek.


*I don't remember if I stated this or not I only use and recommend Tropical Traditions Gold Label coconut oil and coconut cream concentrate. Here's a link http://www.tropicaltraditions.com/. So if your going to try this and you go out and buy goya or some other brand. Don't complain to me about the results.

My review: Making this was very easy. It wasn't difficult. The only thing I dislike about this product is how much the coconut oil and coconut concentrate, it was so pricey but worth it.
I do this treatment every 2 months, almost like a relaxer. BUT BY NO MEANS IS THIS TREATMENT A RELAXER. So I put this must try product in Make Again. I suggest you
try this treatment if you have shrinkage, bulk or course hair. After this treatment my hair was soft and had less bulk. I don't think it changed my curl pattern at all but that you decision to
make.
