There are currently three neutralizing shampoos in my hair product stash and it’s time to figure out which one is best. The showdown is between Design Essentials Milk & Honey Neutralizing Shampoo, Elasta QP Stop Action Shampoo and Mizani pHormula-7 Neutralizing & Chelating Shampoo. I will say that none of them are horrible, but there is a very clear winner…
I literally lost track of this relaxer stretch. I’m not sure how it happened, but I had no idea whether I had relaxed my hair in March or April. :/ That’s why every time I updated you guys there was a four week swing, lol. Thankfully after looking back at my social media posts last week, I figured out that I was…
One thing about me and my hair journey is that I am pretty consistent with what I do. And one of my main constants is protective styling with a bun. Before this summer, I was sure that I would be a bun wearer for life. But things changed abruptly after experimenting with a new protective style. I’m not even sure what…
Hey Guys! It has been a while since I’ve posted a video to my YouTube channel. To fix that, I posted my first Hair Product Haul video today. I don’t normally do these, but recently I’ve been purchasing a lot. And once I realized how everything was piling up on me, it was a no brainer that I should share…
After longer hair, the next most important thing a girl on a hair journey seeks is thicker hair. And we’ve all seen posts and videos sharing tips for thicker hair. But when you’ve made all the changes to your hair regimen and you’re still dealing with thin hair or the even more frustrating thinning hair, it’s time to dig deeper. When women…
If you’ve been following my hair journey for a while, you know that my hair journey focuses on treating my hair well once it’s grown from my scalp. And while I have dabbled in using growth aids here and there, I haven’t taken it too seriously. But at the end of last year, I started taking a multivitamin that had ingredients to promote…
I have been all about this flat twisted protective style lately, which has been such an easy way to get through wash day in less than an hour. I’ve been DCing or cowashing twice a week and retwisting my damp hair (Products I’ve been using: As I Am Coconut Cowash, Chi Infra Treatment, Biolage Detangling Solution or KeraMinerals Smoothing Conditioner).…
Last weekend was Memorial Day weekend. Did you enjoy the first unofficial weekend of summer? We didn’t do much of anything thanks to tons of rain, but I’m looking forward to a re-do. I’m preparing for a beach trip and as I pack things for our days at the beach, I decided I’d share what I carry in my beach bag. It’s a…
You may or may not have realized, but I am almost as obsessed and regimented about my improving skin care as I am with my hair care. It all started with acne scars in my mid 20s aka hyperpigmentation. Since then I’ve been very deliberate about the things I use in my skin care routine. And turning 30 did nothing…
With so many wash day posts from me lately it has been a minute since I’ve done an actual product review. And when I was contacted about reviewing NuNAAT Beauty’s new hair products featuring Brazilian Patauá Oil (pronounced pa-ta-wah) line, I happily accepted. I tested out their new line this past weekend so these are my first impressions of NuNAAT Brazilian Patauá Oil products.
