Little Girls Need Natural Hair Care Too!!


Here's my daughter showing off her freshly co-washed puff!  I co-washed her hair using Giovanni's Smooth As Silk conditioner.  Next, I applied Giovanni Direct Leave-in to her hair and added Shea Moisture Curl Enhancing Smoothie for moisture.  I used my Tangle Teezer brush to detangle and gently pulled her hair up into a puff.  Lastly, I put on her new pair of "pie slice" earrings we bought from Claire's and we were Done!! She was super excited and loved her new do!!


We need to make sure we're paying special attention to our daughter's natural tresses as well.  A good tip is to wash her hair when you wash your own or at least once a week.  In my opinion, the Tangle Teezer is a good tool to use when detangling because there's minimal wear n tear on the hair when using it. 

If you have some styles you want to hair that you have done on your little princess, feel free to email me at naturallycreole@yahoo.com and your story may be featured on my next post.  Don't forget to include pics!!

Playing Around On Wash Day

Just decided to play around in my hair before washing it...it was pretty stretched out from wearing the mini bun style shown in one of my YT vids.  I think I wore that style for about 3 days on an old twistout.



I think the style would work...what do you think??? ^_^

Magnolia Makeup!!


I DO NOT OWN THE RIGHTS TO THIS PHOTO

 I recently viewed a video on YT on a review of this these makeup products and immediately went directly to the site to check them out.  From what I've seen on the website and video these makeup pigments are highly pigmented!! And the cost for each pigment is very reasonable.  Ya'll know I had to give this company a shout out becasue they are based in my hometown ^_^  I will definitely be purchasing a few of their products soon.  Visit their website at http://www.magnolia-makeup.com
These ladies are definitely doing their thang!!

Apparently, I'm Not "All Black"

So I was at work yesterday and I overheard a conversation between this younger girl (about 17 or 18 yrs old) and her counselor. She tells her counselor, (referring to my hair), "Her hair is pretty, she has that good hair...but she's not all Black anyway!" I immediately responded with, "There's no such thing as good hair only healthy hair AND yes, I'm all Black." Then she said, with a smile on her face, "Oh, you heard me?"  Yes, I heard you!! I couldn't do anything but shake my head!! I so badly wanted to give her my natural hair 101 lecture, lol, but I was busy doing something else.

I know not everyone understands or even cares to understand what I have learned over the past year about different hair textures, hair care, protective styling, etc. But sometimes I feel that maybe everyone should receive a 1 hour crash course on natural hair, lol. Maybe then, some views would change and hair textures embraced!

**Disclaimer: I am not stating that every woman should wear her natural hair, nor am I against relaxers**

It would just be nice if everyone was well informed ;-)
