Curling Creams For Natural Hair

-

Hey Sistas, we all want popping curls and when it comes to natural hair it is important to find the right hair products to make those curls pop. One of the best ways to see what products work is to watch hair reviews of people with the same texture hair using the products on YouTube. You can also get sample sizes of the products before actually buying the large bottle of the product. This is how I found the products that work well for me. It is hard to find the right products but once you find a consistent brand you like it is a good idea to stick with them. 

One of the first curling creams that worked well for me is the Cantu curl activator cream. It is creamy and made with pure shea butter. It is kind of thick but provides a good hold to the curls. You don’t need a lot of this product because a little goes a long way. When using this product make sure to moisturize it good into your hair so it want leave white residue. This product can be bought at your local store for around $7.00.

Another one of my favorite curling product is Shea Moisture curling gel soufflé. It is super lightweight and great for a wash and go. It does not add build up to the hair. I love the way and smells and how it makes my hair feel. It has pure coconut and hibiscus; the coconut helps oil penetrate deep into the hair while the hibiscus helps promote hair growth. My hair feels soft and it is easy to manage after adding this product in my hair. This product can be bought at your local store for around $9.78.

The last product that I love for curling my hair is the Aunt Jackie’s defining curl custard. It smells amazing and I love the purple tint of the product. It defines my curls and creates more volume for my hair. This product is also lightweight and doesn’t leave build up. I use this product mainly when I do my twist outs to help define the curls. It leaves my hair feeling so soft and manageable. This product can be bought at your local store for around $6.79.

All of these products are great on my hair. The key is to find what works for your hair. Bye Sistas!

Nighttime Routine

-
Hey Sistas, I have a video showing you how I take care of my wig while my natural hair is braided under the wig. It is important to take care of your weave and your natural hair while wearing a wig. I have had this hair for two years but the first time I wore the hair as a sew in. I let a friend make a wig out of it and this is how I have been wearing my hair lately.   At night rime I detangle my hair and add OGX conditioner and water to it.   I mix OGX conditioner and water in a spray bottle and I wet my hair all the way through. After I wet my hair all the way through I comb through it once again to make sure it is all detangled. Next I twist my hair up and I take my wig off at night and place it on a styrofoam wig head to dry overnight. In the morning I wake up put my wig cap on and place my wig on top of the wig cap. I also oil my natural hair at night with Tea Tree Oil to insure my real hair is still getting moisture. This nighttime routine is super easy and it leaves my w

Hey Sistas, many girls in college are natural and love their natural hair, but it can definitely be a hassle. There are those day where you just really don’t know what to do with your hair. Many college girls choose to wear protective hairstyles such as; braids, weave, wigs and twist.   Between classes, homework, work, and extra-curricular activities protective hairstyles are easier to maintain. I sat down with Dana Mitchell to talk about her natural hair journey and protective hairstyles. Q: When did you become natural? A: I became natural around 2015. I was tired of my relaxed hair and it was not growing how I wanted it. Q: How has your natural hair journey been? A: My natural hair journey has been great!   I will say going natural was the best thing I could have done. My hair has grown way longer and it is thick and healthier. Q: Did you transition or did you do the big chop? A: I transitioned; I did not have the guts to cut my hair. I was scared I would look fun

Hey Sistas, a wash and go is my go to hair style. It is super simple in the summer; especially for me I just wash my hair and go. The name tells it all; basically you wash your hair and go on with your day. Although, a wash and go is simple for me it is a harder for others especially trying to find the right products. A lot of products are not needed for a wash and go but you still have to attempt to add in something that will give your natural hair some shine and moisture. Here are the steps to achieve a  successful wash and go.  1.       First Co-wash your hair with a conditioner ( OGX Biotin & Collagen). Washing helps get rid of all the product build up. Using conditioner to co-wash helps moisturize your hair. Shampoo strips your hair of its moisture that is why it is importation to co-wash with conditioner.  2.       While I’m co-washing my hair I part my hair into section and detangle my hair with a wide tooth comb. A wide tooth comb really separates the h
