PrePoo Fun!

I've been prepooing for a while now and I love it! I pre-poo with VO5 mixed with some oils before every shampoo.  I've never had a real reason for doing it, in fact, I don't even know why I started it.  If anything, I only did it to make my hair softer and more moisturized.  However, today I realized that prepooing for me is a great way to quickly detangle my hair.  I remember when I took my yarn braids down, I thought it would be a nightmare to detangle.  But in my usual lazy fashion, I just mixed up my pre-poo mix and put it on my hair.  Even after having my hair braided up for weeks, there were no knots after applying the mix, and I could easily run my fingers through my hair to detangle.  Besides the detangling properties of my prepoo, I also love the way it gives my hair movement and makes my curls pop.  Below is a picture of my hair today, after I applied my prepoo mixture to it.

Hair of the Day: Second Day Fab Twistout

After wearing my hair in the flat twistout yesterday, I decided to retwist my whole head again, so that it would be fresh for Mother's Day.  So that makes three times this week that I twisted my hair.  I don't like to handle my hair that often so this was very out of the ordinary of my usual once a week styling.  But at the end of the day, it was all worth it!  This is by far the best flat twist out I've ever had.  My hair has hang time in the front and it blows in the wind! I'll also be using my beloved Beautiful Texture's Moisture Butter to style from now on. 

Hair of the Week: Flat Twists to Fab Twist Out

I'll be doing two separate posts for this hairstyle.  Earlier this week, I did some flat twists using Beautiful Textures Moisture Butter.  I kept the twists in for the whole week and I redid a few in the front because they got a little frizzy.  Friday night I decided to add rollers to the end of my twists...lets just say that was a waste of time.  Anyways, I did the twist out on Saturday and it was fab! 

Classic Puff

 Lately, I've been appreciating the simplicity of the low puff.  Even though my hair is long enough to do a high puff now, I found that it's nice to do a low puff that doesn't require nearly as much pull and gel.  This was my hair this past Sunday.

Nothing But, A New Staple

I finally got around to using the Deep Conditioner that I searched high and low for, the Nothing But Intense Healing Mask.  Let me tell you...this is my new staple! I don't think I've ever claimed any product as a staple because nearly every product I've used works well with my hair.  This time, I can say that this product is especially great for my hair because I had a set goal in mind for what I wanted it to do and it did exactly what I had hoped for.  All I wanted was a dc that had some slip and left my hair feeling soft. After using it, my hair was so soft! I would definitely compare it to the results I got from my homemade Avocado Smoothie minus the extra curls.  I could care less about how curly my hair is, I just want it to be soft to the touch and moisturized.  This DC is awesome!

Hair of the Day: Puff-n-Twists

 This is the 6th day of my twistout and though I had already planned to put it in a puff, this time I added some flat twists.  The pics below are from yesterday and today.  Today I redid the flat twists to make them a little neater.
