My first night at the new house!

Sorry for the delay in postings!

I wanted to take the time out to apologize for there being so many delays with posting on the blog. I value all of my followers and my mission is to give you great content! I am in the process of moving and downsizing. This has taking up all my time and when I'm not packing I'm being a wife, mommy, and student. I will have new and exciting content coming up as I come to a close with my braids!! I can't wait, I have missed my natural hair so much and I can't wait to feel my curls again. Please hang in there with me, I will be posting just not as much! BUT I will be back stronger then ever! Stay Curly!

In addition to my blog, I am now a writer for Curly Hair Don't Care! How exciting? I will be posting original material for that blog as well as mine. The site launches Sept. 1, 2010 so check us out! I love blogging and am very excited about this new venture!!! Make sure you come and show us some love and keep showing love to Supernaturals!!! Stay CURLY!!!

Water as a moisturizer???

YES...ladies I promise you I still use water as a moisturizer with my braids, but on my natural hair it's even better!! Water helps the hair stay flexible and helps to eliminate breakage. I would suggest using water to add moisture to your hair every 2-3 days and then sealing it with a good leave in, butter, or oil! Don't make the mistake of using a sealant as a moisturizer. Water or water based products should be used to infuse moisture, THEN use your favorite sealant to lock in the moisture. I like to think of it as "watering the hair", like a plant!! My hair thanks me for it every time! Your goal is to retain hair and using water as a moisturizer, along with protective styling, will help you reach your "Hair Dreams"..happy growing!!!

New Jane Carter Product in September!!!

One of my favorite lines is introducing a new product this September...Jane Carter Solutions will be introducing their first Curl Defining Cream. If you know me, you know that I LOVE this product line. Jane Carter's Solutions products smell amazing and are so clean and moisturizing on the hair. I can only imagine what this new product will do. The web release says it will help define curls, the one product that her line was missing. For the month of August when you place an order on the Jane Carter website you will recieve a free sample of the new product!!!! Visit http://www.janecartersolution.com/haircareguru/?p=977 to find out more information on this new and exciting product.

Missing my hair!!!

The downside to braids is that after a while..you miss running your fingers through your hair...curls..ugh :( I'm missing my hair tonight! But I have appreciated these braids and they will be kept in until Sept. 1. Why then? Well we are in the process of moving and I want to be sure we are in the new house before I release my hair. I have had a ton of new growth which was the reason why I put the braids in...protective styling, plus with being home with the kids for the summer they have served their purpose! How long do you normally keep your braids in?

Could a Huetiful Steamer be in my near future???

Well today I watched a ton of YT videos on The Heutiful Steamer and I must say I'm intrigued. I mean anything that enhances the hair is a friend of mine. PrettyDimples and Taren916 put up reviews within an hour of each other yesterday evening and that got me to thinking and researching. 5 times more moisture to the hair!!!! Again...I'm intrigued. The price isn't bad either which was my initial concern. I may be able to convince hubby to let me shell out $114. It seems like it will pay for itself with a few uses! I might even be able to get rid of some conditioners instead of throwing them away cause I was disappointed at their performance! And then I heard it helps with detangling! Well if that's the case my 7 year old will benefit from it too! Anything that helps our journey is a friend of mine. I'll keep you all posted as to WHEN I make the purchase! Oh Mr. Fedex man!
