Natural...changing lives beyond Hair Care!

Going Natural? .... No, Returning Natural! Yes!!

I decided to return natural indefinitely when my daughter started asking if she could get a relaxer like me. I don't know if many of you ladies have had that experience, but for me it just didn't feel right in my bones anymore to continue with relaxers. The process was not tiresome, but it was ENTERTAINMENT and INFATUATION for my baby girl that I did NOT find to be a benefit or value.


Going Natural changed my lifestyle in more ways than one, it helped me to discover and embrace myself and to learn how to love me. This choice helped to encourage my daughter to love herself and her heritage. She now asks for her hair to be out, curly, and twist-outs. Baby girl wants to Big Chop, but in my heart I know she is not ready, because when I trim her hair she has heart failure (figuratively speaking).

I would love to see her with a TWA, but when the time is ready. :-)

I personally have found myself wanting to eat differently, clean differently, and change my lifestyle completely because of being more informed of natural and organic alternatives. It's definitely a work in progress, but I can say I am dedicated to finding ways to incorporate a natural/organic lifestyle.

Henna

I just picked up my package from www.mehandi.com for Ancient Sunrise Henna (body art quality henna) RED.
This Henna states for dark hair it will not color my hair, but will give me highlights in the sun.

Henna is used to help make hair stronger, add color(varies), thicker, and glossy!
Right now it is 4:24pm and I am going to begin mixing my Henna!

I will keep everyone updated!!

Today is a wash n go...Curls products only

Tuesday night I washed my hair with Pantene Pro-V Relaxed and natural shampoo(needed clarifying badly). Then I used Curls Creamy curls to rehydrate my curls.
Secondly, I applied the Curls Coconut Curlada conditioner and massaged through my entire head. Bi allowed the conditioner to remain for 10minutes while I showered. I rinsed the conditioner out with like warm water because I wanted the cuticle to remain open for the next step.

When I rinsed the conditioner out, I curls Creme brûlée and Tropic isle Coconut Black Castor oil. Put a plastic cap on, tied a scarf on top and went to bed.

The following day I kept my scarf and plastic cap ON.
At the night I took the plastic cap off and rinsed my hair with cool water, I applied the Curls Coconut Curlada conditioner and finger detangled.

Next, I rinsed the conditioner out with Luke warm water. Then, I applied my sample of Curls Ecstasy Tea Conditioner in sections throughout my hair, I put a plastic cap on applied 2 minutes of heat(with cap ON). Then I put my scarf on and went to bed.


This morning I rinsed the conditioner out with cold water and applied Curls Goddess Curls (scrunched in sections)!!
