3 Tips For Moisturizing and Sealing

By
Because the weather is pretty much dry, moisturizing and sealing is essential at this time of the year. 
Last night, I co washed and went to bed with the wet hair. This morning, my hair was dry and crunchy and couldn't understand why.

I skipped leave in conditioner and applied dark and lovely amla legend  oil moisturizer and then the cantu sheabutter hair lotion and sealed with coconut oil. Now, my hair was crunchy prior to the products and it was a not damp after using the lotion so I couldn't style it. It took about 10 minutes for the products to soak in but my hair was so soft and moisturized. The water from co washing had hydrated the hair before the moisturizing. My hair feels very thick and smooth and as a result I've learnt three tips that will take your moiayrizong game to another level.


  1. Moisturize and seal as soon as you wake up to give your hair time to absorb the products.I intend using a shower cap to facilitate the absorption. The products will be absorbed before you move out and you can style quickly .

  2.  You can use more than one moisturizer. Haven used two moisturizers simultaneously, I can definitely see the added benefits. Water based and oil based moisturizer is a good combination.


  3. Seal the hair with a tiny  bit of oil or butter to avoid oily hair. I used just a small amount of the coconut oil to seal and my hair wasn't weighed down.




These tips about moisturizing and sealing will help your hair to retain moisture.

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.

During the week, I prepared hibiscus infused in water and rinsed the hair with it. My hair, immediately, became extremely hydrated and soft. 
For the wash day, I deced to prepoo with aloe Vera oil using adyeam cap. 

It's been a while since I did this! I shampooed and condtioned and air dried. 
The only part that excites me is the front hair is gradually getting long enough to hide the damage done by the braids and weaves I wore; the edges would be less visible. 
**I'm actually 6 weeks post ** I have about 2 weeks to go before next relaxer and I'm just counting down to seeing the length I gain. I'm trusting the nature's bounty vitamin to keep working like this.
