Wet Banded Twistout ft. Oyin Handmade :)

1/27/2014

    Hey!  Today I'm sharing an updated wet banded twistout!  I like to do this when I want some stretch to my wet hair... I'm still not digging my regular wet twistouts as much so this works great.  Back then, I used to use hair ties but they started to snag my hair as they have changed the material. :/  So I'm now using satin scrunchies! They are safer on my hair and I don't have to worry about any snags or anything. 

The Process :)

Thou Art A Shield For Me...

1/26/2014

0 Comments

 
Good Morning! 

  Remember that no matter how many obstacles/people/trials may come your way, when living for The Lord, He will always look out for you. He ALWAYS wins! Always. 

(KJV) Psalms Chapter 3
3 Lord, how are they increased that trouble me! many are they that rise up against me.

2 Many there be which say of my soul, There is no help for him in God. Selah.

3 But thou, O Lord, art a shield for me; my glory, and the lifter up of mine head.

4 I cried unto the Lord with my voice, and he heard me out of his holy hill. Selah.

5 I laid me down and slept; I awaked; for the Lord sustained me.

6 I will not be afraid of ten thousands of people, that have set themselves against me round about.

7 Arise, O Lord; save me, O my God: for thou hast smitten all mine enemies upon the cheek bone; thou hast broken the teeth of the ungodly.

8 Salvation belongeth unto the Lord: thy blessing is upon thy people. Selah.

Aight I'm done! It took 20-30 minutes (I lost track of time lol!) on the cool setting
(which is actually a warm setting) on high speed to dry my hair 99 percent! My
hair was VERY VERY smushed from the dryer lol! But I was able to finger fluff it
like normal. The product combo worked great!  I'm out to get Supa Gabe!
BTW, don't mind the fact that I keep rockin this sweater lol!!! Hey it happens! :)

New Dryer

I'm trying out a new dryer... my hot tools hooded dryer is a pain to sit under lol. I have to constantly rotate and sit awkwardly to make sure all of my hair dries. So I hope it goes well with this bonnet dryer. It should eliminate the need to rotate.  :)

Have you ever tried this brand out? I ordered it from Walmart.com for around 38 bucks.

Adding Essential Oils to Water :)

1/21/2014

Picture
Quick tip: If you have fine hair or are sensitive to using lots of heavy oils on your
scalp, try adding a few drops of your essential oils to some water instead of a
carrier oil.  :) That way, you are still able to reap the benefits of some of your favorite oils. It also works nice as a hair refresher. Currently, I add about 5-7 drops to 2 oz of water.  I'll probably tweak this a little as I learn what works for me.  :)

Eden Body Works Coconut Shea Cleansing Cowash For Detangling?!?!?!

1/20/2014

0 Comments

 
  Alright, I'm sort of kicking myself for not realizing I had a GREAT detangler on hand in my stash!  I have been searching forever since the formula change of Tresemme Naturals occurred.  Nothing really detangled my hair as well as that conditioner until now. Enter Eden Body Works All Natural Cleansing Cowash!  The funny thing is that I have been using this for a lonnnng time now!  I just never used it to "break down" my wash and gos prior to cowashing lol.  This stuff works awesome for me both as a cowash and now as a detangler. :D  

From this, I learned to shop my stash every now and then.  Sometimes there may be a product in there that can be used in
different ways and in turn, save me the headache of trying to find other products to help me out.

I Can't Hold It! :)

Aight, today let's just praise Him! 
Why?  Because He's too good not to!  Think about ALLLLL the things He's done for you!
I bet you'll have a praise then. :)

(KJV)  Luke chapter 19 verses 30 - 40

30 Saying, Go ye into the village over ag...ainst you; in the which at your entering ye shall find
a colt tied, whereon yet never man sat: loose him, and bring him hither.


31 And if any man ask you, Why do ye loose him? thus shall ye say unto him,
Because the Lord hath need of him.

32 And they that were sent went their way, and found even as he had said unto them.

33 And as they were loosing the colt, the owners thereof said unto them, Why loose ye the
colt?

34 And they said, The Lord hath need of him.

35 And they brought him to Jesus: and they cast their garments upon the colt, and they set
Jesus thereon.

36 And as he went, they spread their clothes in the way.

37 And when he was come nigh, even now at the descent of the mount
of Olives, the whole multitude of the disciples began to rejoice and praise God
with a loud voice for all the mighty works that they had seen;

38 Saying, Blessed be the King that cometh in the name of the Lord: peace in
heaven, and glory in the highest.

39 And some of the Pharisees from
among the multitude said unto him, Master, rebuke thy disciples.

40 And he answered and said unto them, I tell you that, if these should hold their
peace, the stones would immediately cry out.

Hold and Shine Moisture Mist Changes

1/18/2014

0 Comments

 
    Ingredient Update: During Walgreens recent buy 1 get 1 50% off sale I order the Hold and Shine Moisture Mist which I've loved FOREVER. I noticed that the ingredients are
slightly different... The old one has the silk protein listed higher and the new one lowered it. That may be helpful to those who have protein sensitive hair. :)  The second difference is the newly noted hibiscus flower extract. I hope this product works just as good as before... especially since I have two lol.

    I also ordered my first BH Cosmetics palette! I got the 120 color 3rd edition (on sale for $15.95 for one) because it had lots of wearable colors for my personal taste.  Ya'll know I'm not that bold with color lol!!! So this is like a baby step into color. At first glance, I LOVE this!!! 

BTW the site now has this palette for $12.95! SMH!!!

New Avocado Butter :)

1/16/2014

8 Comments

 
    New avocado butter in da building!  I ordered another 12 oz size. My last
one is down to the wire and has lasted me over a year. I tend to pay about 12
bucks for 12 oz.

Note: I order the pure organic cold pressed kind not the extra virgin kind.
Apparently there are different kinds out there lol. But the one I get doesn't
need to be mixed with other things and isn't rock hard from jump. It is also
pretty much scentless. I may stir it up a little since it's cold out and it was
outside in the mailbox but that's about it.
