[10] Finished up by applying Shea Moisture's Curling Custard, Marguerite's Magic Restorative Cream and JBCO before puttung on my bonnet & scarf.
The next day (Wednesday), I didn't do anything special to my hair. I wore my normal fro and called it a today. But, in honor of Thanksgiving yesterday, I decided to be festive. I opted for something easy and fairly quick: bantu knots. I love wearing bantu knots and I think it's a versatile hairdo. Instead of wetting my hair, I did the bantu knots on dry hair. I didn't add any products because my hair was still moisturized from my LCO application the night before. It probably took about an hour to do all the knots and I must say I was pleased with the results. I think I did a good job, seeing as I didn't use a mirror during the process.

How did your wash day go? Did you wear a festive hairdo for Thanksgiving?
Until next time!

Your hair looks so nice and moisturized! When I had short hair, I could never achieve enough moisture! Also, how do like the elixir with the cayenne pepper? I have been using Njoy's Essential oil, which has sulfur in it and it works really well!

Hi Bree!
DeleteThank you! Believe me, it was a struggle the first four months. I think I finally found products that work for me. I'm in love with Carol's Daughter (Black Vanilla Leave-In and Marguerite's Magic) and Shea Moisture. I really like the elixir. I have to target my scalp with the ACV rinse because it can make my scalp a little itchy at times. But, I think it helps with hair growth. I'll have to try Njoy's Essential oil. I've heard great things about sulfur and I want to give it a try.
Thanks for the tip! I sent a request and got an invite to the Facebook group. I'm excited to network with other bloggers.
Thanks for stopping by :).
I also love Naturally Nelzy's tutorials.
ReplyDeleteWashed my hair two nights ago- after 10 days. I've been really lazy lately. I just co-washed with Hello Hydration, and moisturised & sealed with Cantu Argan Oil, Oyin handmade and JBCO. Hair felt amazing by the next day :)
I can understand that. I was tempted to skip my wash day this past weekend. I've heard a lot of great things about Hello Hydration. I might have to try the Cantu Argan Oil in the future. That sounds like a great wash day session :).
