Product Review: Creme Of Nature Intensive Conditioning Treatment

Image
Here's is what I think of the much raved about Creme of Nature Intense treatment. I purchased this with the intention of using it weekly. The word 'intensive' means that there is a protein element meant to strengthen the hair and stop breakage.  Unfortunately for me, I didn't notice this until after a couple of weeks.  Do I like it? How did my hair respond to it? Watch and leave your comments, questions or suggestions.

Whipped Sheabutter Using Blender

Image
After several months of laziness, I got around to whipping my almost 33oz bucket size of sheabutter! Most often, what you usually see is the mix being made with a hand mixer or an electric mixer. Well, have no fear! You can use your regular blender. How? Gather all the oils you want to add to your sheabutter. I used hemp oil, extra virgin coconut oil and almond oil.  In no particular order, I poured about 4 tablespoons full of each oil and added the sheabutter into my baby food blender-my big one is too big lol. Be sure to wash your blender well to get rid of pepper or other stuff that might not be pleasant on your skin Blend for some seconds and your whipped sheabutter is ready!

L.O.C or L.C.O Method for Moisturizing Hair

Image
The Liquid, Oil, Cream or the Liquid, Cream, Oil techniques have become quite popular among fellow hair bloggers as well as readers. The two methods all aim at keeping moisture locked in the hair. Liquid: any water based leave in Cream: moisturizing creams Oils: what you use for sealing in the leave in and moisturizer. Whereas the L.O.C stands for Liquid, Oil and Cream, the L. C. O represents Liquid, Cream and Oil. Basically, after you apply the liquid, you can either use a cream and seal with oil or use oil and seal with cream. Check out my video showing how I do this method. The L.C.O is considered an offspring of the L.O.C because it was only when some ladies realised that cream before oil works better for them. Personally, I haven't consciously tried both techniques but intend to dedicate two months to experiment with them. Because our weather tends to be dry most often, finding a method that helps the hair retain more moisture is an excellent idea. At the end of

New Protective Style: Cornrows

Image
--> I got the cornrows installed two days ago and it wasn't an easy task for the stylist.My new growth at 9 weeks post relaxer is awesome  but getting the comb through for the parts was a great challenge. If I'll get another braid, I will blow dry the roots to stretch it. That was my first time with this stylist and I'm hoping to "tune" her to healthy hair practices.com when it comes to handling my hair. I've finally discovered why I can't keep braid styles for more than 2 weeks; The pulling I feel on my head days after braiding even though the braid won't be hurting. Let me describe it; the feeling you get when you turn your head a day after braiding or the pull even days later, is just not fun for me! I get more conscious of something being on my head! Once I get that, which takes days to go away, all I want to do is get that style down! I have that going on right now and since I can't do my braids, it's going to be difficult solving
