My Shea Moisture Hair Color Experience

Last night I tried the Shea Moisture Color System in Light Brown and I love the results. I will have more detail about my review and demo on my hair channel. I'm just summarizing my experience last night. The whole process was fairly easy. The pros were there wasn't a strong scent, my hair is soft and moisturized, and the hair color solution detangled my hair as I applied it. The cons were the gloves coul have been thicker, one of my gloves riped, if you have thick hair you may need two color kits, I ran out so next time I will buy two. Other than that I will be using this product again. Sorry this post is so short I'm a busy mom, but check out my video later today😃

Shea Moisture Curl and Shine Review

Last night I tried the Shea Moisture Curl and Shine Shampoo. For it to be a sulfate free it had so much later, and detangled very easily. I put my hair in 3 sections and rinsed with warm water then I applied some shampoo in my hand then massaged it into my scalp. I really liked how creamy it was, and the smell was soft. I also have the moisture retention shampoo and that one is more creamy compared to the curl and shine shampoo. I like them both a lot. My hair felt soft and my curls were very defined. I applied the curl milk as my leave-in some eco styler for a slick ponytail. If you want to hear about the ingredients check out my video on my hair channel.

My Hairstyles I've achieved with my blownout hair

I must admit it was quite a shock getting use to my straight hair. I miss my kinky, coily hair but figured why not take advantage of my straightened tresses and style my hair. It's funny how without my shrinkage my hair easily fits in the styles below.

Celebrating African American Women and their Hairstyles❤

Last night, I thought of a great idea to re-create the hairstyles of talented African American women. Yes, I know black history month is over, but I would like to break tradition and celebrate African American women sharing a little bit about their lives and recreating their hairstyles. This will be an ongoing project for me throughout the year. Here are some of the women I've done so far, check out my instagram page to read about their lives.

My Blown-out Braid out style❤

Since my hair is stretched and straight I thought it would be nice to wear a fluffy braid out. When I thought of this hair style I thought of Tracee Ellis Ross so I didn't want a super defined braid out. I braided 4 braids in the front and 6 in the back with Karen Body Beautiful Love Butter. I didn't braid all the way down, but two strand twisted the ends. I left the braids in overnight and took down each braid the next day.Afterwards, I applied an oil to my hair. I didn't unravel too much because I wanted it to look like a loose braidout. Here are the results, it sure did feel good to have my hair out of a protective style.
