"It Never Rains in Southern California"...YEAH RIGHT!!! Its raining soooo hard today. Its one of those day where you stay in and sip some hot tea, read a book, listen to some good music OR experiment with you natural hair!!!! Let me share some pix from the past week.
w/hat
WOW!!! I didnt realize how long it had been since I journaled. Well, LIFE has been happening so I havent been updating much. Although I have been taking pictures with my digicam. I have been wearing twist outs a lot. I got my hair cut and flat ironed which I wore for about a week. I missed my NATURAL! Recently I started the WET, STYLE n GO again (I dont shake anymore). Right now, I am into low maintenence hair so I have been thinking about another cut. Also I want a cut to disguise my longer strands. The truth is the strands always show up again anyway so what's the use? I am really trying to come to turns with my multi textured head and LIVE with it. So I am not going to fuss with it anymore. THE DIFFUSER (see products) has become my friend these days when I dont want wet head at work. When I first diffused with Glass in Dec 2002 I did not like the results and I was discouraged. I put the diffuser back in the box and didnt pull it out until May 2003. I used it with Proclaim Curl Activator & Proclaim Natural 7 Oil. I wasnt afraid to touch/shape my hair and I wasnt trying to fight the shrinkage. I loved the results this time. I have gotten my product rotation down. Here's the list.
Suave Naturals Conditioner - RINSE DAILY FOR WET STYLING
Kerna Moisturizing Shampoo - WEEKLY WASH
Kenra Mositurizing Conditioner - WEEKLY CONDITION/DEEP CONDITIONING
Proclaim Curl Activator - WET STYLING
Proclaim Natural 7 Oil - ADD TO PRODUCTS
Shea Butter - DRY STYLING
Fantasia IC Gel (for slicking when needed)
THESE PRODUCTS ARE ALL I NEED but I still occasional use Black N Sassy Creamy Set for twists and ponytails. PLUS I really really want to try the Aveda Elixir and Aveda Be Curly products. I buy Salon Selectives from Big Lots for $1.99. Ill do this until they dont carry it anymore. I bought a Revlon brush for detangling. Its NOT a Denman but it looks like it will do the trick. I am gonna try it out this weekend.
