Crotchet braid to end the harmattan

By
Well, I got bored with styling my hair daily so I opted for an elegant yet inexpensive protective style- crotchet with kanekolon hair.

I went with my two crotchet pins and taught the hair dresser what to do. The hair turned out so much prettier than the first crotchet I did. The hair used was Obaa Sima as compared to the Outre I used the first time. This hair was smooth and light so the hair wasn't puffy. I used one and half pack; the cornrow was painless! One thing I've noticed with the Tamale stylists I've visited is they know how to make their client comfortable. I didn't experience pain in general. The pain I felt was at the initial stage when she was trying to get the pin out of the cornrow. After she mastered that, it was smooth sailing. We took about 2 hours from start to finish. Her apprentices were pretty excited to have learnt a new hair style.
I'll curl the hair later on but for now, I'm enjoying the fake length lol.

How To Use Chebe Powder and Oil On Relaxed Hair

In case you have relaxed hair and wondering if you can use chebe powder the answer is a yes.



All you need is to be able to plait your hair or twist up. You can also use cornrows.
To prepare the chebe mixture, add a few tablespoon full to a creamy product. I usually recommend your moisturizer or butter for a good hold.

Shampoo and condition your hair well and apply the chebe mixture. Plait up the hair and leave it for at least 7 days before reapplying the chebe mixture.

When you are ready to wash out, which could be in a month or whenever you want, just shampoo the hair and condition as usual.

You can use the mixture again for another couple of weeks.

In case you need chebe powder or chebe oil, call or whatsapp 0541458372.

My 5 Step Skin Care Routine

I've been chilling with The Ordinary products a lot and it's been amazing delving into skin care over the past few months.

To start, I use an inexpensive face wash from Beauty Formulas and then follow with either Thayers Rose petal toner or Dear Klairs supple predation toner, then, The Ordinary Vitamin c 23% suspension wit HA Spheres 2%.

I allow the vitamin c serum to sink in. I don't follow up with any oil or moisturizer since the squalene oil in it is enough.

That's the routine for night and for day, I use Niacinamide rather than the c serum. The 23% suspension is gritty hence I mix with hyaluronic acid before application and I use it at night since anything else will pill when you use the serum.

During the day, I add a sunscreen and off to do my rounds.
2x a week, I cleanse and use The Ordinary lactic 10% with HA to exfoliate my skin. I cleanse, allow the skin to dry and put a few drops on the skin. I leave it and wash off in the morning.

My skin has been …
