Nothing too new on the hair mode except the fact that I looked at my desk stash, yes I have a desk just for hair and spa products LOL LOL. I looked to see what I have and I decided to retried few products to achieve a wet and go style to ring in the year.
My process: deep condition with Amazing Botanical's Honey Condish and Natural Girl Rocks Deep SOULutions deep conditioner and I let that sit for a day with the processing cap.
On late night of Dec 30th, I cleanse my scalp and hair with WonderCurl Detoxifying Clay Cleanser. Now that truly cleaned my scalp as I massaged it in then rinsed.
I followed up with 2 of my staple products Tree Naturals Rice Flower & Shea Leave in conditioner and Kinky Curly Spiral Spritz.
What have I noticed: Yes the rumor is true about the clay cleanser that it can leave some bits after you rinse out. I learned that the first time I used the product. However, this time I really took my time and moshed it in my hands and in my hair and scalp. That really helped. This clay cleanser left my curls POPPING!! **In the picture the top 2 pics are after I washed the cleanser out, hair still wet. The bottom 2 are my hair dry**
I have also noticed that my hair is so soft and the longevity of my curls without maximum frizz is awesome.
As you can see from this pic below. Day 2-3. I did refresh with the leave in and spritz I mentioned above, Its totally cold outside and I want to make sure my hair is well moisturized.
I think I will have to make sure to keep this process in mind, it is really working for me. And yes I did condition my hair before washing/shampooing... It may sound a** backwards to some, but it works better for me in the winter months. This is the 2nd time I have deep conditioned first with the same results > soft conditioned hair when dried. Try it and let me know your experiences. I still try different products as I am a product junkie.
I have tried another twist out which is why I had to condition/wash my hair before NYE as it was just a fail.My hair just does not prefer twist outs. I can use whatever setting product or just regular moisturizer and nawwww a big thumbs down. SO I just rock my own curls. The ONLY way I found that it works for a day is if I straighten my hair and you guys know thats a negative. I only do that once or twice a year. NO heat for me.
I am also doing my personal challenge of NO CUTTING my hair for a year.. trimming ends yes but cutting into a style..noooo. I started in November 2014, its January 2015..so far so good.
Color: hey thats a part of my life lol. Right now blue works for me. Going into my 2nd year of being blue. I was recently contemplating on going back red.. we shall see. I still use the Manic Panic line.. Love them! Anyhow, I just wanted to give a New Year update. Thanks for reading!
