Hey Curlies, I finally got around to washing my hair this week and I decided on some curls using my knock of Curlformers (haha) with Eco Styler gel and Shea Butter.I washed using Shea Moisture’s Jamaican Black Castor oil Shampoo and deep conditioned with Eden Body Works Jojoba Deep Conditioner. I then let me hair sit a towel for about…
Hey Curlies, This is the first check in for the castor oil challenege. I have been applying castor oil to my egdes every couple of days. It does help my edges stay soft, moisturized and slicked down when I take my scarf off in the morning. I usually try not to brush or manipulate my edges too much to avoid…

Hey Curlies, I washed my hair a few days ago using my usual…Shea Moisture Jamaican Black Castor Oil shampoo and conditioned with TRESemme Naturals Conditioner, but that’s not the point of this post.

Hey Curlies, After a week of wearing my two strand twist updo, I decided to have some fun and let my hair down a little,literally. I untwisted my hair Sunday night before bed because I usually have limited time in the morning. Believe it or not, my twistout stayed fresh throughout the night. To achieve this style, both the updo…

Hey Curlies, I’ve been doing some thinking….and some examining. If you’ve read my last post where I talk about my latest protective style, you know I am striving to wear more two strand twists. I previously wore them often and want to get back into protective style mode now that summer is just about over. With that, I’ve been thinking…
Hey Curlies, I’ve noticed over the past few months, beside my mini twists, I haven’t been wearing twisted styles as much. I constantly find myself “doing” my hair. This is due to the humidity swelling up my hair throughout the day and ruining my style. Basically, I haven’t worn many styles that tend to last the entire week. At one…
Hey Curlies, Here are the bantu knots I promised. I don’t do this style often because this is one I can never get right (Yes, even I fail at hair styles). I was pleasantly surprised that my bantu knot came out wonderfully! I created about 10-12 bantu knots using Kandy Kurls Leave-In Conditioner. I’m not much of a gel person so…
