Hello Ladies! There will be no activity from Diva Locks for at least a week, don't be so sad ;) the diva and I along with my mom are going on a little vacay to Vegas baby! Well actually the diva has her dance national competition so that's the real reason we are going but we are going to make a vacation out of it. The hubs couldn't take off work so he won't be going and JJ is going to stay home with him so it's a girls only trip. I am going to miss my men while I am gone though :( But we are going to have a blast and I will have lots of pics for you guys and a product review, and a swim care hair care routine so lots to look forward to dolls. I am going to be extremely sad that I am going to miss any giveaways going on during that time :( … [Read more...]
Vacation
Criss-Cross and Two Buns
Disclaimer: This style was something that I did in 5 min. it came straight from the diva's normal banded style she wears after shampooing. So with that being said please ignore the horrible parts I didn't re-part her hair for the style and when I banded her hair at night I don't go for straight parts.Sooo anyway I started this style on freshly clarified and deep condition hair that was sealed with Darcy's Botanicals Oil. Her hair was so super soft!Simple style two criss crossed 3 strand twist ponytails that connect to two 3 strand twist buns in the back.Enjoy! … [Read more...]
New Hair Brush
Hello Divas, So yesterday I was trying to find this beauty supply store that was apparently out of business or moved locations because it wasn't there (insert sad face here) I was going to buy some Joico K-Pak Chelating Shampoo as part of my newly developed swim care hair care routine (more on that in another post later). Soooo I had to go to the CVS that was right there since the beauty supply store was no longer there and to my discovery that CVS store had lots of great goodies I was like a kid in a candy store. I picked up some of this instead of the K-Pak (which CVS didn't have, mind you they had all other kinds of products by Joico just not the kind I needed)Ultra Swim Moisturizing Shampoo, I will do a review on this later, stay tunedI also picked up this lovely!Similar to the Denam Brush but a lot cheaper, I paid $4.29 and I picked up some hair clips for 50% (sale going on) I used this brush last night on damp hair after I detangled with my wide tooth comb and man … [Read more...]
Co-Washing
Hello Ladies, So I was at my local Wal Mart looking to use my coupons, Side Note: I think I am an amateur Extreme Couponer :) Anyway I had a coupon for Aussie Moist or Herbal Essences Hello Hydration, well I didn't buy either because I read the back of HEHH and saw that it contained Sodium Hydroxide so that is a big no-no then they were out of stock on the smaller bottles of Aussie Moist and considering I have never used it before I wasn't about to buy the big bottle. So I saw out of the corner of my eye in it's pretty green bottle Suave Almond and Shea Butter Conditioner so I bought the 32oz bottle for $2.84. I know, I know I am super late on this product but I was looking for a new co-washing conditioner. What is co-washing you might ask for all those lovelies who don't know its when you wash your hair using only conditioner and no shampoo. I like to co-wash about 2-3 times a week in between my weekly wash with shampoo. I am currently using VO5 Moisture Milks which I have a … [Read more...]

Two Braided Ponytails with a Zig Zag Part
Hello There!I didn't have a style in mind when I came up with this so I just went along and this is what came out! I first started with two angled cornrows going in opposite directions. Then I made a zig zag part going down the middle of the diva's head for two ponytails. I made 3 braids in each ponytail and then braided them all together and bobby pinned them to the other side of her head.Enjoy!3 braidsBraided togetherPinned across the head … [Read more...]
