My First Hot Oil Treatment
May 24, 2011 By Leave a Comment
So after much research and many answered questions courtesy of Kandy (thanks girl) I decided to try out a hot oil treatment on the diva. I used my African Royale Hot Six Oil and poured a generous amount in a bowl and microwaved it for one minute. Then I wrapped a towel around the diva and used my hair dye brush to apply the oil to her scalp and hair, I worked in four sections. After her hair was covered in oil I put a plastic cap on and she watched TV for 25 min. Then I rinsed the oil out and shampoo'd and condish'd as normal. Then I applied a little Carol's Daughter Hair Butter and banded her hair for the rest of the day and night. This morning when I styled her hair I was amazed at how soft her hair was. My hand-in-hair syndrome kicked in and I couldn't stop touching her hair :) I am very pleased with the results and I plan to add this once a month to her hair care routine. Enjoy! … [Read more...]
Cornrow & Twist Updo
May 23, 2011 By Leave a Comment
So I saw this style over at Her Best Hair awhile back and have always wanted to try it out on my hair. Now my hair is way shorter than hers and I can't really braid my own hair, my arms get tired and as you may already know I can't part as it is so parting my own hair was almost impossible. I think this style should last a few days.I did this on freshly washed and deep conditioned hair and I used Carol's Daughter Hair Butter and ORS Lock & Twist Gel (very little)Enjoy! … [Read more...]
