New Ventures

I have not been blogging in a long time and I definitely miss it. I have been so busy with working, school, book club, bowling, social time, etc. The summer is approaching and my schedule is going to get crazier but I will maintain. This is my life and what I am bringing to the table in order to build a foundation to my future. There are some things that I will blog and I am excited to share it with the world. Until then, I wish you nothing but peace and blessings!

Kinky-Curly Review

So with all of the hype with Kinky-Curly hair products going on, I had to try myself to see what was all of the hype about. I tried the Come Clean Shampoo and the Knot Today Leave-In Conditioner. The products are sold at Target, Whole Foods, and online. The price does vary and I paid $9.99 for both the shampoo and conditioner. My verdict is that, both of the shampoo and conditioner worked wonders for my hair. The Come Clean Shampoo cleaned my hair very well and when I added the Knot Today Leave-In Conditioner, it was just the icing on the cake with my curls. It defined each curl and left my hair very soft and untangled. I am very pleased with the product and looking forward to using it more in the future. I have already used the Curling Custard and my hair loves that as well. I would most definitely recommend the products to all of my natural hair lovelies!

Peace and Blessings,

My Hair Relationship with EVOO

As most of us hair fanatics know, that we don't just use Extra Virgin Olive Oil (EVOO)just for cooking, we also use it for our hair. I for one swear by EVOO for my hair. Now that I have color as well as highlights, that is critical for my hair. I have to admit, that I am a product junkie and I have been trying different kinds of oils for my hair but, all of the time, I am heading right back to EVOO. It also helps my hair when it is humid outside to reduce the fizz. I take about a quarter size in my hand and apply to my roots down to the ends. It is light and it does not weigh my hair down.

Follow-Up Product Review

Follow-up (sorry that I am so late) to my experience with Shea Moisture...

Product ReviewProduct Review of Shea Moisture: As I was excited to try these products, sad to say, that I did not like them. The line is organic however, I was not impressed on how my hair turned out from it. It may work for others but, it did not work for me. It left my hair brittle-like and my natural hair is not like that.

Life of a Product Junkie - I am excited to try the following...

I have been reading the raves and reviews on the product, Shea Moisture. I have decided to try it out and see what all of the hype is about. There is nothing wrong with trying out new products in my book. Plus, I am a product junkie so it was in my nature to try it. I purchased the following from Target for $9.99 each. You can also purchase their line of products from Walgreens and I think Whole Foods too if I can recall.

The product review will soon to follow...

Shout out to my sister from another mother, Tiffani...I am going to try the puff girlie. I just hope it turns out right this time since this is my struggle style.
