My Dominican Magic Deep Fortifying Conditioner Review


I had seen a few reviews on this product and was sold on trying it.  I have to say I was pleasantly surprised by the results I got after using it.  It left my hair extra soft, bouncy and very moisturized.  Today I'm 9 months post relaxer (haven't relaxed my hair in 9 months), and so far so good.  This product would be excellent for natural, relaxed and transitioning hair.  It really nourishes the hair deep within.  I'm so glad I gave it a try.  You can find this product on Amazon.  Next I plan to try the Leave-In.

Suave Natural Anti-Breakage Conditioner & Suave Natural Strengthening Light Leave-in Cream With Awapuhi Ginger


I received a sample of all three of these products in the mail.  At first I wasn't sure if I wanted to try them or not.  I didn't like the regular Suave Naturals.  Since I'm always willing to try something new, I decided to give them a try. First I tried the shampoo. After trying the shampoo, I wasn't very please with it. I'll try it again at a later date before I decide if I truly like it or not.  However, when I tried the conditioner I fell in love with it.  My hair was silky and easy to comb after using it.  Then I tried the  Strengthening Light Leave-In Cream. Instant detangling and it smelled so good. I did a roller set and let my hair air dry.  My hair felt silky smooth with lot's of bounce and body (It's always exciting to find another product that works so well on my hair, and knowing all I have to do is walk into Walmart or Target to get it is nice as well).  The next day I went out and bought the full size bottle of both the conditioner and the light leave in.  Looks like I have a new product line added to my regimen.  Suave has out done themselves on this one.

My Beautiful Textures Naturally And Babyliss Titanium Flat Iron


Today I decided to get my hair straight with the Beautiful Textures Naturally Straight kit, and by using my Babyliss Titanium Flat Iron.  I applied the Beautiful Textures Naturally Straight lightly on my natural hair as well as my relaxed hair.  My results turned out exactly how I wanted it to be.  I will continue to use the product because when used correctly, it's really good.  I set my Babyliss Flat Iron on number 35 which is perfect for my hair.  Tomorrow I'll post pictures of my finished results.

From My Video "One Of My Favorite Hairstyles"





It was so hot today I decided to wear a chignon.  My edges were a little puffy, so to control that, I added some Chi Silk Infusion, then sprayed a little water on my edges, then proceeded to blow dry my edges and nape with the Conair Hot Air Brush.  The item I'm wearing in my hair is called a Gale Barrette. It's sold at Mehandi.com . Here is the link:  http://www.mehandi.com/shop/barrettepale/index.html

My Review Of The Kanechom Goat Milk Conditioner

The Kanechom Goat Milk Conditioner has new packaging now.  It's no longer yellow.
I got a chance to try this product with both the Silicon Mix and by it's self.  With the Silicon Mix, even though the results was nice, it wasn't as good as when I used the Kanechom alone.  I'm glad I got a chance to use this product because it's been talked about for a long time.   As always, I did my roller set to get my results which was a half up/half down hairstyle that had lot's of bounce and body.

Products Used For My Banana Clip Hairstyle Video


As promised here are the hair products I used in my Banana Clip Hairstyle Video. Yesterday I conditioned my hair with the Suave Natural Infusion with Awapuhi Ginger & Honey Suckle. It's a new product that shocked me because it works just as good as my Dominican Products I use. Then I used the Suave Natural Infusion Strengthening Light Leave In Cream. What I like about the creme is that it leaves the hair silky and soft once wet or dry.  Then today  I applied the Aunt Jackies Curl La La leave in ( I absolutely love that stuff).  It keeps my hair so moisturized all day.  Then I applied the Garnier Fructis Marvelous Oil Deep Nourish 5-Action Hair Elixir to seal in the moisture.  The two work excellent together.  When I did a roller set yesterday, my choice was the purple because the purple rollers give me large bouncy curls.   The brush I used in the video was a Denman Brush.

Creme Of Nature Straight From Eden


Right now I'm doing a year long stretch (meaning I won't be relaxing my hair for a whole year). At this time I believe I'll be 9 months post relaxer in about a week.  I have this relaxer waiting for my use.  Lately I've been thinking that I may go longer than a year, I'll have to see when the time comes in September of this year.  This relaxer is suppose to be much better, more gentle than the usual relaxer on the hair.  If I should relax my hair at that time, (in September), It will be exciting to see how much my hair has grown.  Lately however, I've really been looking at my natural hair, and at the moment I'm just not sure when I'll be relaxing. If my journey does happen to get tough, I'll be relaxing my natural hair for no more than 6 or 7 minutes just to loosen the curl (if it's very tight). So far, the only area I'm seeing soft yet puffy curls is in the nape area.  The rest are wavy/S shaped curls.  What's helping me through this stretch is my attitude twards it. Last time I only lasted 9 months and 17 days.  Stay tuned to see what I do next.

My Review Of The Garnier Fructis Sleek & Shine Anti-Frizz Serum

Garnier Fructis Sleek and Shine is an excellent product.  Whenever I shampoo and condition my hair, I use this product to detangle my hair on contact.  When my hair dries, it's soft, bouncy and just over all healthy looking. It's a permanent part of my hair regimen.
