hey fellow lazy naturals, what do you do when you really wanna try a wash n go but have never had a successful one but you’re also not sure how much effort you wanna use to rake gel through your whole head so you’re thinking of a braid out or something instead but the first step is literally just washing which you haven’t done yet bc you got distracted after detangling and

Flaxseed gel >>> any prepoo or detangler

hey ashley! hope all is well. i think I’ve seen you mention that you have natural hair if so i have a quick question. what’s some of your favorite products? i’m newly natural and so overwhelmed with all the different brands and product lines.

hey babe! yes, i do have natural hair. congrats on taking the plunge 👏🏾👏🏾🙌🏾 it definitely is overwhelming at first, and there are so many products out there, it's easy to become a product junkie. however, ultimately, trying things are the only way you'll know whether something works for your hair. everyone's hair reacts differently to different things, so never feel that there are only certain products you should use or there is only one method you should be doing on your hair. do whatever works for you! 💜

now to answer your question. for reference, i would say i have fine, 4a hair (if you're into typing) that's normal porosity, and i have a lot of it. so as the years have gone on, i've had to modify my routine to try my best to prevent single strand knots and to cut down on washing time. as of now, every wash day i prepoo to detangle, i shampoo my hair in twists, i deep condition, and then i style using the LOC method. i have a mix of products i'm trying to use up, but i'll highlight the ones i come back to.

Brands I love and have been using for years: Melanin Haircare, Soultanicals, Miche. All black-owned businesses ✊🏾

Prepoo: African Pride prepoo, but I ran out, so the past couple wash days I've been using my big bottle of Aunt Jackie's Knot on My Watch detangler

Shampoo: honestly, this varies. I have a lot of different ones that I've been giving a go, because I've been trying to find a clarifying one that i like enough to keep repurchasing. I do like the Miche shampoo, and when it comes to clarifying, I've lowkey been using Mane & Tail lol (we'll see if I repurchase that one).

Deep conditioners: This is where I don't really have product loyalty, because I loveeee deep conditioners, and love to try all different kinds! When it comes to brand, I'm always gonna rep Soultanicals--been using their products pretty much since I first went natural

Leave In: I've been using the Melanin Haircare leave-in for years! You get quality ingredients and more bang for your buck. Also, they're in Ulta and Sephora now, so it's much easier to just go in the store and get when you need it. I also love the Soultanicals Mango Dip and have been using for years. Recently, I've also been using that Aunt Jackie's Knot on My Watch detangler because I bought a big bottle of it from Marshall's because why not, it was like $11 for a gallon lol. And it actually works pretty well!

Oil: I'm not picky, but I use Melanin Haircare/Miche/Ecoslay. I've used Melanin the longest and it's the best bang for your buck, but Ecoslay smells really good!

Cream- depending on if I'm doing a twist out or more of a wash and go, I use Melanin Haircare or Miche or Eden Bodyworks. Melanin is more of a butter, but other brands like Miche and Eden Bodyworks and have more definition and hold, if that's what you're looking for. I think I don't really have a favorite--I'm just using up my stash lol

Gel: I used to really love Wetline Extreme when my hair was shorter. But now that it's longer and tangles easier (plus, I think they changed their formula), it's just not doing it for me anymore. I would still give it a try--it may work for you! That and Ecostyler, though Eco made my scalp tingle ominously the one time I've used it, so I can't really speak to how well it works. Other people love it though. I also have used As I Am curling jelly from the very beginning of my journey, though it's definitely more of a lightweight gel. I've also been using Dippity Do because I got it at Marshalls for cheap with my Aunt Jackie's, and it works pretty well, though it also has a lightweight hold.

Good luck babe! Hope you find something that works for you--let me know if you have any more questions 💜

¿CABELLO LARGO O BRILLANTE? ¡AMBOS EN MENOS DE 2 AÑOS! 💁🏻‍♀️

Tener la melena como Rapunzel está bien, pero tenerla, además, brillante, sedosa, manejable y sin puntas abiertas, ¡es el sueño hecho realidad! 🥳

Mira esta cliente que, luego de 1 AÑO Y 4 MESES, ha visto su cabello crecer en la mejor condición. Si tú también quieres lograr esto, te dejo 5 tips que sí o sí debes seguir:

1️⃣ Incluye en tu rutina pasos ricos en proteína como la jalea, mascarilla de cacao, ampollas reestructurantes y Hair Gloss.

2️⃣ Aléjate de las herramientas de calor, los alisados y los químicos por un tiempo.

3️⃣ Toma mucha agua e incluye jugos verdes en tu dieta.

4️⃣ Siempre haz prepoo. Puedes alternar entre una buena bomba o Hair Oiling, pero nutrir tus hebras antes del lavado hace la gran diferencia.

5️⃣ Siempre finaliza con un sérum que cuide e hidrate tus puntas. Puedes usar el aceite de Argán o las gotas de brillo.

Comparte este post con tu amiga, la que quiere espera ver resultados a los 2 meses para que tenga paciencia y constancia. 🙃

Soo….. I impulsively took down the faux locs yesterday… because who would I be if I didn’t? Certainly not me…

Far left photo is of my hair right after takedown. I was very happy and surprised to see how much length I retained while my hair was put away. It falls right in between my shoulder blades, almost at bra strap. I think that I could be 2-3 inches away from bra strap length. I thought that my hair growth was becoming stagnant, but it is certainly filling out. When my hair was this length before, it was because of a few spidery ends that barely reached my back. I’m so glad that I chopped off those unhealthy ends. I was right when I said that the length would be back by the time I took everything out. Proper length check coming soon, since my ends are clipped and all. 🖤🖤

I sprayed water and conditioner throughout to avoid breakage during the takedown (second pic). I decided against the coconut oil prepoo, it didn’t feel necessary. My strands felt very strong and for some reason it was shiny when I took it all out. It obviously needed washing, but it didn’t need the intense care that my hair usually does when I braid my base down with globs of gel. My hair was extremely soft when I took it down, and I only needed the mask to help get rid of the got2b gel around my edges. I figured it’d help deep clean my hair/scalp after this long protective style.

Third pic is my hair with the AHC mask. I honestly didn’t do my best with the application because I didn’t make enough and didn’t really need it applied to my entire head. I just wanted it to get rid of any potential dirt/product buildup on my scalp and strands. After that I washed and conditioned my hair with Aussie moist for the first time, and I really like it! It’s a cheap shampoo and conditioner that has a nice lather and scent. 🖤

I blow dried my hair and pulled it back into a cute bun. Did my edges, tied it up, and went to sleep. I can’t believe I had the energy to do that after working so much for the past couple of weeks, but now I actually get to rest tomorrow instead of dedicating a full day to doing my hair….

My kinky straight wig is currently soaking in fabric softener, I’m trying to get the wig smell out and just clean it overall. I plan to bleach the knots tomorrow and **maybe** install it?? Who knows? Pics and stats coming soon 🖤

Como restaurar la hidratación tu cabello después de exponerlo al cloro

Hola, Curly el fin del verano se acerca y aunque todavía hace mucho calor, es posible que tú ya estés pensando en como hacer que tu cabello recupere el aspecto saludable que tenía antes de exponerlo al cloro. Aunque espero que lo hayas protegido de este con los consejos que ya he dado en este blog. Pero si no los has hecho y tus rizos están esponjosos, secos, opacos, sin vida, se enredan mucho…

It’s interesting that a lot of natural hair youtubers are going to back to relaxers or transitioning to wearing their hair straight 24/7

My new growth has gotten so out of control that it’s blending with the faux locs. I’ve had multiple people, including close friends of mine, think that this was my own hair, which is pretty cool. It was a nice flex in the beginning of the new growth phase, but now it’s definitely giving “you need a retwist.” My edges are begging me at this point.

I really **really** miss my hair. I think that the half inch that I snipped off has grown back, my hair seems to be at least 12 inches if I’m going by the piece that’s loose right now. I’ve been contemplating spontaneously taking this all down when I get off Wednesday evening, and just push through hair treatments and wash day Thursday. The plan is to do my takedown, use some coconut oil on my scalp and hair for some added strength on the strands, it’ll mainly act as a prepoo. Then I’m going to go in with my AHC mask, fully detangle and remove the shed hair. After that I’ll rinse, shampoo, and condition my hair. Stimulate the scalp with some tingly minty oils, and deep condition with the flax seed cap. Rinse, leave in, and blow dry. I’ll let it get some air for a while before I flat twist or braid it down, because I desperately want to have straight flowy hair right now.

I don’t want to damage my hair straight out of a protective style just for it to revert back in less than a week. I ordered a kinky straight lace front in hopes of getting my fix, lol. I plan to cut it into layers and dye the ends dark red. I want it to give alt black Rengoku…. I’m really hoping that I can pull it off. I didn’t really do well with my old lace fronts. Never glued them down, and I cut bangs into them so that the lace couldn’t be seen. Never ever bothered to bleach the knots. This time, I’m really going to try to do it correctly and melt the lace. 🖤

Like-

Ugh I really miss my hair, but I know that as soon as I finish taking it out I’m going to miss this style. It’ll be back soon…

O que é Pré Poo?

✨Leia agora tudo o que você precisa saber sobre Pré Poo✨ Oi xuxus ❤️ Hoje vamos aprender sobre o Pré Poo! 🧴 ▶️O que é Pré Poo? 📍 O pré poo ou pré shampoo é um produto capilar que deve ser aplicado antes do shampoo. Existem dois tipos : ▶️Pré Poo para limpeza: 📍 Ele foi feito para abrir mais as cutículas capilares, realizando uma microesfoliação, para que o shampoo possa limpar os fios de forma mais profunda, e tirar as sujeiras que possam ter ficado presas no nosso couro cabeludo. Ele tem a função de limpar, deixar os fios leves e manter o couro cabeludo livre de impurezas e oleosidade. ▶️Pré Poo para proteção: 📍 Ele serve para nutrir e selar as cutículas capilares, evitando que os elementos agressivos do shampoo penetrem e danifiquem os fios. Como resutado o cabelo fica mais forte e saudável. 🌸Ele é ótimo para quem tem o cabelo cacheado/crespo, pois são cabelos que tendem a ser mais sensíveis e podem ser bastante beneficiados por uma proteção à mais.🌸 ⚠️ O pré shampoo é maravilhoso e pode sim fazer diferença no seu cabelo, mas o seu uso não deve ser diário, pois ele pode sobrecarregar os cabelos e causar o efeito contrário: fios frágeis, opacos e quebradiços. O ideal é utilizá-lo a cada 10 ou 15 dias. Vocês fazem o Pré Poo? Me contem 👇
