New Year, New Hair

My New Year's "New Year, New Hair" resolution is to be gentler on my hair and my family's hair. I have heard that keeping my daughter's hair braided was a "Protective" style but I didn't even stop and think what those tight braids were doing to her hairline until it started getting thinner and shorter. EEEK! I felt so bad when I realized the style I thought was protecting her hair was actually doing damage.

This year I play to co-wash the kids hair, meaning using conditioner to wash instead of shampoo. If I do use shampoo it's going to be gentle and hopefully SLS free.

I plan to pick gentler styles without so much stress on the hair.
I plan to use my fingers first to detangle my familys hair.
I will keep their hair moisturized and conditioned.
I will continue to study and learn the best and gentlest methods for my familys hair!!!


What are your "New Year, New Hair" Resolutions??

Hair with ROMANCE and Hydratherma Naturals review

For this style I used:
  • One willing Hubby
  • Rat tail comb
  • Small elastics 
  • Hydratherma Naturals Moisture Boosting Shampoo
  • Hydratherma Naturals Moisture Boosting Deep Conditioning Treatment
  • Hydratherma Naturals Amino Plus Protein Deep Conditioning Treatment
  • Hydratherma Naturals Daily Moisturizing Growth Lotion
  • Hydratherma Naturals Hair Growth oil 

My husband's hair and skin have been feeling dry due to the cold weather. His hair's feeling a little more rough than usual.



 
 So I ran hubby a hot bath last night with some sesame oil to soften his skin.





I washed his hair with Hydratherma Naturals Moisture Boosting Shampoo. He was happy to find that there was a natural scent and no perfume smell. This shampoo did not make his hair feel dry, after washing it felt like he had already conditioned his hair, it was so soft. My husband has a LOT of hair and it can take forever to rinse out with some shampoos, this one however rinsed our amazingly fast and didn't seem to leave any residue on his hair.

Here's what Hydratherma Naturals had to say:
Product Description and Benefits:

This stimulating shampoo contains multiple natural extracts including  Seaweed, Algae & Sea Kelp with a hint of essential oils that will get your hair healthy and keep it there. Delivers omega 3 and omega 6 essential acids to each hair strand which helps return the hair to its optimal 8% moisture level. Detangles, softens and hydrates the hair as it cleanses the hair and scalp. Infuses the hair with moisture without product build-up. Moisturizes the scalp, reduce dryness, decreases dandruff and regulates sebaceous secretion. We added high quality proteins to help prevent breakage and strengthen the hair. Superb for brittle, slow growing and chemically treated hair yet great for all hair types. Provides great slip. For use with other Hydratherma Naturals brand products


After rinsing his hair I towel dried it to take out the extra water. I then applied the Moisture Boosting Deep Conditioning Treatment. I smoothed it through his hair and left it in for about 10 minutes before rinsing.

Product Description and Benefits:

This deep moisturizing  conditioning treatment contains a combination of natural ingredients including Lavender Oil, Caramel, Orange Oil, Seaweed, Algae and Sea Kelp extracts which work to replace natural oils lost and increase moisture levels in the hair and scalp. Penetrates the hair shaft with moisture prevents breakage, restores elasticity and seals in moisture. Returns the hair to its optimal 8% moisture level. Strengthens and detangles the hair from root to tip without weighing it down. With just one use, you will see and feel a difference. Your hair will be left soft with a healthy glow. For best results, use with other Hydratherma brand products. 







After his bath I towel dried his hair and applied about a quarter sized amount of the Amino plus Protein Deep Conditioner. I was surprised that he didn't need more of the product, like I said he has a LOT of hair. Surprisingly a little products went a long way!

Product Description and Benefits:

This deep protein conditioning treatment strengthens the hair and prevents breakage. With just one use, you will see and feel a difference. This treatment contains an exceptional and unique complex of structurizing proteins, all of different molecular weights. These proteins penetrate deep within the hair shaft producing benefits like no single protein can.  Enriched with 10 amino acids, vitamins and botanical extracts. Strengthens each hair strand and protects the hair from harsh weather. Also provides sunscreen protection. Your hair will look and feel terrific. Superb for all hair types. For best results, use with other Hydratherma Naturals brand products.


Next we applied a quarter sized amount of the Deep Moisturizing Growth Lotion. Again, a little of this product goes a long way! I loved the way this products smells, a very light sweet, natural scent.

Product Description and Benefits:

ONE OF OUR BEST SELLERS! This new and improved natural daily moisturizing lotion is excellent for chemically treated or natural hair.  CONTAINS 5  NATURAL BUTTERS AND 8 NATURAL OILS....ALONG WITH GLYCERIN!!!! You can't beat the moisture in this product!!!!!!! There is nothing like it!  Now  contains more Emu Oil per bottle! This natural daily moisturizing lotion is excellent for chemically treated or natural hair. Use daily to soften and condition the hair while restoring a nourishing balance of moisture in the hair. Created with an exclusive blend of natural ingredients such as shea butter, olive butter, aloe butter, sweet almond    butter, avocado butter, olive oil, almond oil, jojoba oil, peanut oil, macadamia nut oil, safflower oil and glycerin.  This lightweight formula will penetrate each hair strand       immediately and prevent breakage. Seals in moisture. Makes hair soft, supple and easy to manage. Contains no mineral oil or petrolatum. A little goes a long way with this lotion, so use sparingly. Smells yummy but please do not ingest. For best results, use with other Hydratherma Naturals brand products.









The very last product I applied is the Hair Growth Oil. After applying these products Antonion's hair was the softest I have EVER felt his hair!! Detangling was so simple and his hair was extremely easy to work with. 







Product Description and Benefits:

Now contains more Emu Oil per bottle! This new and improved multi-purpose hair oil is excellent for chemically treated and natural hair. Contains a unique blend of 13 NATURAL OILS used to soften the hair, give hair a healthy shine and seal in moisture. Repairs and prevents dry itchy scalp and prevents breakage.  Only a small amount is needed. Great to use with scalp massages and can be used on the body also. You will just love it! Smells yummy but please do not ingest. For best results, use with other Hydratherma Naturals brand products.


After applying all the products I decided to braid my husbands hair. If you don't know how to braid you can find directions HERE.


If you are new to braiding the parting is really the hardest part. For simple straight back braids you can simply divide the hair in half using your rat tails comb.






Then in Half again

And divide those sections in half again


This is an easy way to get even parts















 
 
Doing your loved one's hair is an awesome way to express your love!!
Or even be romantic :)
Braids don't have to be perfect, mine sure aren't !!
It's more about the time spent together and the love you can express with your hands!
Have fun!
Peace & Blessings~ Jennifer

Revitalize those curls!

When Jamilah wakes up in the morning and takes off her satin bonnet her hair is flat!

 

At first when I started "Doodling" her hair (the style I previously posted) 
I thought it was ruined when she woke up and her hair was stuck flat to her head
Until....

 

We sprayed some Moist Curls Moisturizer by Curls in her flat hair.
I got her hair pretty saturated where it needed it the most and just gently shook it out. 
The front where she slept needed to be wet a little more and I had to re-wrap a few pieces around my finger to revamp the curls but basically this whole revitalizing took less than 5 minutes and she was good to go!

 

Yay her Curls are bouncy again!



 

Here she is with her Barbie dolls she calls "Princess Natural" 
because she has hair much like hers!

Blended Cutie Review & Style

For this style I used:






Here is what we started with one bed head of naturally curly hair

We co-washed her hair which simply means we washed with conditioner instead of shampoo.
This was the result, kinda wild! :)




I smoothed "Butter Me Up!" from Blended Beauty's Blended Cutie line through-out her hair.
This product is a great moisturizer for her texture of hair.
This is what Blended Beauty has to say:
A rich and gentle moisturizer for curls and kinks that are in extra need.This leave-in conditioning cream, is enriched with shea butter, aloe and chamomile. It is pH balanced for sensitive scalps, and tames frizzies while smoothing and softening those precious curls and kinks.


I then sectioned the hair with my fingers, this is NO way has to be neat you're just giving yourself smaller sections to work with!




Through a small (maybe 2 inch) subsection of her sectioned part I ran
"Down & Out Styles" by Blended Cutie from root to tip.

Here's what Blended Beauty has to say:
A gentle, moisturizing, conditioning and curl defining butter cream. Enriched with shea butter, chamomile and aloe, for smoothing, defrizzing and defining curls. Silk and Beantree create body and shine even on defiant frizzies. Wearing your hair down and out has never been easier!

This product has a little hold and moisturizes at the same time. It's great for doing styles like this because it doesn't have an stickiness or weigh down the hair too much...
Just the right amount to make her curls look great!





See the very first subsection done, yes the curls are much shorter but so well defined.
I did not use a comb, I simply ran my fingers through her hair while it was VERY wet
(here's where the spray bottle may be needed) and saturated with Down & Out Styles
When you run your fingers from root to tip with water and the D&O styles you will notice the hair will begin to part and tell you what pieces to wrap around your finger.

Just wrap the small pieces quickly around ur finger and slide it back out.
This adds beautiful definition to the curls.



Section by section work with about 2 inches of hair at a time, soaking with water then Down&Out styles and wrapping each curl around your finger.





See the difference between the hair I have done and the new piece I just brought down??


Yes you can see some of the product on the wet hair.
Don't worry, when the hair is dry this will disappear!
Aren't those curls pretty!!


The back is done!



See the difference! with just some water & Down & Out Styles her hair is Shiny, well defined and look and feels so healthy! Her hair is not sticky or crunchy, it's soft and curly!



Hope you enjoyed. Feel free to comment with any questions!

Thanks so much to Blended Beauty for allowing me to review your products!!

I am not my hair.....


I ♥ Big Hair!!


Mixed Chick Review :)




This is what we started with. My daughters hair is big and crazy when she wakes up if she doesn't wear her bonnet or wear her hair braided. Let's see how well Mixed Chicks can tackle this job!






Let's start with the Mixed Chicks Shampoo....

Here's what Mixed Chicks have to say:
even in the cleanest
environment, hair tends
to grab dust.  over time
dust and product residue
build up and create a
dulling effect.

MIXED CHICKS
shampoo
gets defiant locks
squeaky clean.  then,
once you have a clean
slate, follow with our
deep conditioner and
your hair is ready to
sparkle once again.



Mixed Chicks Shampoo has a nice light scent and smells sooo good! It cleaned Jamilah's hair nicely without making it feel dry.








Mixed Chicks Deep Conditioner


After washing I squeezed the extra water out of Jamilah's hair. I then applied a generous amount of the deep conditioner. I let it sit in her hair for a couple minutes before I used my fingers to de-tangle her hair. I then went over her hair with a wide tooth comb. She left the conditioner in for another 5 minutes and then we rinsed. 

This conditioner has a really great scent, it was thick but not too heavy and really made de-tangling a SNAP! 


Mixed Chicks Leave-In conditioner/styling cream:

What mixed chicks had to say:
a curl-defining formula designed for us.  
and when we say, "us", we mean "many."  
even if you aren't mixed, you may have
frizz and unruly curls.  MIXED CHICKS
you're black, white, asian, latin,
mediterranean, or any glorious
combination of the above, you'll love the
way these  non-sticky, lightweight,
products leave your hair inviting to touch.



Jamilah hair was so nicely de-tangled from the deep conditioner we didn't need to comb or de-tangle her hair at all. We loosely broke her hair up into four sections and twisted the leave in through her hair from ends to roots. The leave in made her hair soft and curly but did not weigh her hair down or make it appear greasy like many of the products we have tried before. 





HAIR SILK

What Mixed Chicks had to say:

have you ever watched
someone enter a room, or
walk down the street, and
their hair seemed to have a
silky sparkle?  MIXED CHICKS
hair silk  makes you and your
hair look more vibrant.  how?  
it's our light reflecting formula
that not only gives you added
shine, but prevents fly-aways
and splits
 

I really enjoyed this whole line but I must say this is my FAVORITE of all the mixed chicks products. This products made Jamilah hair just shine. Hair Silk defined her curls and made them shiny again without weighing them down or making her hair feel oily. I used it lightly through-out her hair and especially at the front where her little hairs look frizzy. Her hair was so pretty...and she was actually HAPPY to leave it down! (rare for her!)


I have curly hair that I sometimes straighten with a  flat iron. I used a tiny drop of this product in my wet hair before blow drying and really didn't even end up needing to iron it. I did lightly go over the front. Where the dryer normally leave my hair looking frizzy and "fly-away" it looked shiny and healthy! LOVE IT!!! 


The Mixed Chicks line did an awesome job with my 

daughters hair and I'm going to start using the hair silk for 

my own hair as well to define my curls or straighten without 

frizz.





Thanks Mixed Chicks
For allowing us to review your products!!!!

Teacher Cuts Off Girl's Braid In Front Of Class

I know a lot of other mommy bloggers and hair sites have already discussed this incident so at first I wasn't going to bother to post it. The incident, however, often come to my mind and I imagine how angry I woule be if a teacher ever cut my little girls hair.

Lamya Cammon is a first grade student in Milwaukee. Apparently the teacher was frustrated because she was playing with her hair in class so as a punishment she called the little girl to the front of the class and cut off her braid. The little girl cried as her fellow student laughed. I know some people are thinking that this is JUST HAIR but as we all know there is much more to hair then stuff that keeps our heads warm. Hair is part of us, part of our self esteem and our glory. This little girl was shocked and embarrassed by her teachers abuse.

So I bet you're thinking the teacher got fired or harshly punished. NOPE! She got a $175 fine, that's it! A slap on the wrist! I think she should lose her job and be made to pay for her offense.
I guess we now have to teach our daughters what to do if a teacher ever tries to cut their hair. Other mommy bloggers have suggested that they run to another teacher or principal and tell them what this teacher is trying to do. Perhaps shout "NO do not cut my hair" I always tell my children that if they are being punished in a way that makes them uncomfortable to tell the school to call me. I believe my children always have a right to reach out to me when they are in need, school or no school. That's MY child.

Beads, Braids and Beyond posted the following contact information should you wish to contact the school regarding this issue.

This is the schools address:
Congress Elementary School
5225 West Lincoln Creek Drive
Milwaukee, WI 53218

This is the schools email address:
116@mail.milwaukee.k12.wi.us

This is the school districts address:
Milwaukee Public Schools
5225 West Vliet Street
Milwaukee, WI 53208

A couple of resources :)

I am always interested on how to save money and use more natural products. Today I was visiting one of my favorite hair sites Happy Girl Hair and found THIS article about hair on a budget.


Happy Girl Hair also recommended some hair recipes from MotownGirl.com Check them out HERE Included are recipes for hair rinses, No/low poo shampooing, hair treatments and leave in conditioners. Think I'll try some out after the holidays and let you know how they turn out!

Lemme know what you think! Blessings~ Jennifer

Curly Like me

The author of one of my favorite biracial hair sites, Tightly Curly,  has written a book!


The following information was taken from her website at www.tightlycurly.com



Curly Like Me: How to Grow Your Hair Healthy, Long, and Strong
Teri LaFlesh
Publisher: Wiley (May 2010)
ISBN: 978-0470536421
WHERE TO PRE-ORDER:

Do you spend countless hours— and untold dollars—on weaves, perms, salon visits, and products that promise to “cure,” change, heal, or make your hair more manageable, only to end up even more frustrated? Do you wrestle daily with hair you can’t get a brush through? Do you struggle to keep from hurting your child when you comb through their tight curls? Would you like to learn how to grow your tightly curly hair long and make it happy?

If you answered “yes” to any of these questions, this is the book for you. It gives the information and techniques you need to take charge of very curly hair. You will learn how not only to care for your curls, but also to cherish them, all the while saving time, effort, and money.

Curly Like Me is a complete beginner’s guide to tightly curly hair care.
Within it you’ll learn:
  • Simple, easy-to-follow instructions with over 250 original photographs and illustrations
  • The proper care, best products, tools, and ingredients for curls

It gives you the secrets to growing healthy, long, natural hair without costly treatments, products, marketing misinformation, or styles.

Spacer swirl


From Curly Like Me author Teri LaFlesh:

I spent most of my life feeling that the hair growing out of my head was so unacceptable it had to be altered by any means necessary. I suffered with what felt like unmanageable hair that made me ashamed because it didn't look or act like the hair of those around me. I used brutal chemicals that I burned myself with repeatedly. The chemical damage left me with constant matting, short, crunchy hair that broke apart and covered my shoulders with little hair bits.

It took me thirty years to figure out what my hair had needed all along. No longer was I bound to what it should want—based upon a straight-hair-advice template—but to what it did want. My hair turned from oppressed and fractured hair that couldn’t grow past my shoulders to exuberant coils reaching well past my waist. Now that I understand how to care for my hair, it has become a unique feature I'm proud of. When I tried to force my hair into being something it wasn't, I was denying its true nature, and we both suffered. Since I finally learned to love my curls for what they are and discovered what they needed, they have thrived.

By using the information in my book, readers will have the keys to grow and cherish their stunning natural curls. Readers will learn how to enhance the curls they were born with and keep them healthy, and with the least possible amount of effort. Curly Like Me contains information I wish I had known from childhood about caring for my hair. My book is for anyone looking for simple answers to take care of their coils. No prior experience is assumed, so a person who has never combed a curl in their life will know how to groom a head full of tight coils smoothly. Curly Like Me is meant for people like me, who don’t have the time or energy to style their hair in elaborate, labor-intensive styles.

I strongly believe that if there are more examples of beautiful, natural curls out there, the more often curls like ours will be recognized as a lovely and viable styling option. One of the goals of this book is to see that people won't feel they "have" to straighten their curls anymore when they see numerous examples of how stunning their natural curls can look when happy and understood.

CURLS REVIEW!!!

Little does my daughter know that my secret desire would be that after using Curly Q’s from Curls she would love her curls so much she would wear her hair down to school. See we have always taught her to be proud of her natural beautiful curls but for some reason she still is very self-conscious when her hair is out. I went to see her holiday concert today at school and noticed one thing; she seemed to be the only girl with natural curls.



When our package from CURLS came today my daughter was so excited to see that Madison Pettis, the actress from “Corey in the house”, “The Game Plan” and “Are you smarter than a 5th grader”. She loves this actress and her beautiful hair and was definitely glad to see her representing CURLS.


Cutie Curl Cleansing Cream:
This rich and creamy sulfate free cleanser gently cleanses your angel's curls, hydrates, and conditions the hair all in one step! Produces a mild, gentle lather, as it is sulfate (detergent) free. Infused with Carrot Seed oil, Horse Chestnut, Sage Leaf and Arnica Montana Flower Extract, this exceptionally formulated cleanser with cleanse, hydrate and condition her hair all in one step! Follow up with Coconut Dream Conditioner, rinse off conditioner.

We took out her twists and got ready to use Cutie Curl Cleansing Cream. The first thing we both noticed was the scent. My daughter immediately said, “MMM that smells good enough to eat!!” along with comments about how it smelled like frosting, cake and eggnog. The smell was delicious. This shampoo had a nice light lather, which worked well through her curls. The one thing we usually have a hard time with is rinsing, a lot of shampoo’s tend to get caught up in her curly hair and take forever to rinse out. Cutie Curl Cleansing Cream rinsed out so quickly, I was very impressed.

Coconut Dream Conditioner:



Looking for a rinse off conditioner that provides MAXIMUM moisture and softness for your angel's dry curly tresses? Look no further, Coconut Dream conditioner is guaranteed to soften the kinkiest curl, moisturize the driest lock, and detangle the most unruly tresses.


After rinsing with warm water, I squeezed some of the excess water out of her hair and applied an ample amount of Coconut Dream Moisturizing Conditioner. The conditioner smelled very similar to the shampoo but maybe even a little better, if that’s possible. I smoothed the conditioner through her hair and left it in for 5 minutes before carefully detangling with a wide tooth comb. We then rinsed her hair and found the conditioner was very easy to rinse out as well and made J's hair feel so soft and silky.



Moist Curls Moisturizer/Detangler:



Moist Curls is the daily detangling liquid moisturizer you've been looking for! This hot seller detangles, revives, protects, moisturizes and conditions your angel's curls. Give her curls a boost while protecting them from the harsh environmental elements. For best result use daily on wet or dry hair.
NOTE: The sprayer is meant to spray in a stream (vs mist) to enable for quick saturation of Moist Curls to enable fast and easy detangling

After patting her hair to get some of the water out we applied the Moist Curls Moisturizer and detangled her hair with her Denman brush. This moisturizer had a nice light scent and detangled her hair very easily. The spray saturated her hair well, instead of the light mist of most spray bottles that take much longer to saturate the hair well.


Curly Q Gel-les'c (pronounced Curly Q Jealousy):

It isn’t a gel, and not quite a serum it’s Curl Gel-les’c (pronounced Curl Jealousy). This botanically based, organic curl styler imparts brilliant sheen, banishes frizz, and holds those twirls in place! Transform dry frizzy locks into the enviable curls that every girl dreams of, with Curly Q Gel-les’c!


Application:


Day #1 - Apply Curly QGel-les'c to freshly cleansed/conditioned hair, while it is still wet. Gently work through curls from root to end. Allow to air dry.


Day #2 - Refresh with Moist Curls Moisturizer, apply Curly Q Gel-les'c only as needed.

I then used Curly Q Gel-les’ C , I smoothed it through her hair, scrunched and let her hair air dry. Her curls looked great! There was no stiffness, her hair had a nice scent to it and looked shiny. Her curls were under control and not “too big.” I personally love her hair big but since she is self conscious about having her hair out I try to be cautious of this. After letting her hair dry with the Moisturizer and Curl Gel-les’ C her curls were contained, looking shiny, healthy and beautiful! She was very happy and started putting in her order for more products for Christmas! Best part, she was willing to wear her hair DOWN!
