“Did you cut your hair?”
‘No, I did not cut my hair!’
“Is it the curls?”
‘Yep!’
That was the conversation I had with my friend when I got to work on Friday. She went right into it without even saying Hi when she saw how short my hair looked! The last time my hair looked like that, even my husband thought I cut it. My hair has been retaining moisture lately, and I love it. I discovered the wonder of lifting up my cuticles and letting the moisture in. It takes a lot of heat to get my cuticles to open up. Therefore, deep conditioning with heat has been making such a big difference. I am slowly learning which products work best for my hair. I try to stay away from ingredients that don’t work and add more of those that work, like water for example. Now let see how the wash day went.
- Pre-poo: I applied my TREsemme moisture rich conditioner to my hair. I left it on for a few hours after covering my head with a shower cap and wrapping it up with a silk scarf.
- Shampoo: I washed the conditioner out with TREsemme moisture rich shampoo.
- Rinse: No tea or coffee rinse this time.
- Conditioner: I conditioned my hair with V05 moisture milk conditioner for about 5 minutes.
- Deep Conditioner: I used Pantene Pro-V truly natural deep conditioner with heat for about 40 minutes.
- Drying: 80% dry with a T-shirt.
- Leave-Ins: Castor oil on my scalp, Extra virgin olive oil, and Shea butter on my ends.
Since my last braid out totally looked like a wash and go, I decided to do a bantu knot out this time. My hairstyles last longer now because my hair does not swell up and ask for moisture. Maybe one day I will get to just wash ‘n go! How was your wash day?
Well both of the looks look great on you girl! I think I have to try castor oil soon too
Thanks, Keke! If you are looking for thickness, it is the right product for you!
Love the hair and the make-up. Can't wait to see the wash n go.

Shrinkage is crazy! I'm glad your moisture level is onpoint
Great review. Lingerie mesh bags are a must have and have saved my bras from over-stretching the wash.

Love your curly hair. Curls can really make a huge difference!
Thanks hun. Yeah, it is so obvious when this dramatic change happens.
I love the lippy too, May! Thank you.
Thank you so much Cascia!
Thank you Tomi!
Yep! I am coloring you purple. Diana made me buy this lipstick:-)
I know, right! I really wanted to say, "what's it to you?" But she does not know much about black hair:-)
Okay love. I will! Thank you so much.
Girl, you made me buy it. I am glad you like it. I think it looks so good on you too.
I know. A lot of people think so too.
Thanks Jackie
Thanks kizzy
I am working on it, Neti!
You know Nerline, it IS a matter of trial and error when it comes to products. What works for one, doesn't work for somebody else. Everyone's hair is different and requires certain things. I'm doing the same thing. Glad you're noticing what works for your hair. Also, I had to get past what products I WANTED to work and WHAT WORKED FOR MY HAIR! LOL My hair and I like totally different things. Thanks for sharing this.

Your hair looks pretty with curls in it like that. I like all the "leave-ins" you applied to it.

Nerline you have me here in fits, lol, awww babe I love you 😉 kisses
You are so right. Sometimes you see a product working on somebody Else's hair, and you want the product to work so badly for yours. But our DNA is different:-)
Lol!
Thanks Beauty!
You have my heart:-)
Your keeps looking better and stronger by the. I am definitely taking notes. Beautiful!

Hi Lisa! Thanks for joining the conversation! Curly hair has a mind of its own! It doesn't always behave!
