Hi there Chicas, Happy Sunday!!!. I am so very excited about this post. Yesterday was wash Day and I had so much fun with my tresses. Let’s get started.

Benefits of hot oil treatment

I started by taking down my weaves. I can’t believe I have had on them for a month. I was happy with the growth I had for the month with this Protective Style (1 inch) .

I proceeded to wash with Gentelle Hair fruits shampoo and condition with My Honey Child Conditioner. My hair was still in corn rows so I loosed the corn rows after washing.

I did an hot oil treatment first. For my oil mix, I mixed Coconut oil with Sesame oil, Palm kernel oil, Mustard seed oil, Castor oil, Hemp seed oil, Olive oil, Rosemary oil, Lavender oil, Tea tree oil and Peppermint oil in a bowl.

I boiled water and put the bowl with oil inside it to get it warm (not hot so you don’t burn your scalp😂). I put my hair in 3 sections and rubbed the oil from scalp to tip before putting on a plastic bag for 10 minutes.

DC ingredients mixed together

I then deep conditioned using a mix of egg (with white and yolk) , Argan oil Hair treatment oil, Argan oil hydrating mask, Mayonnaise, Honey, a little Leave In conditioner from Beautiful Textures and a teaspoon of Apple Cider Vinegar.

Conditioner from My Honey child

I put the Deep Conditioner in each section of the hair and put a plastic bag on for another 15 minutes.

I then rinsed my hair and dried a little before doing Bantu knots. For my Bantu knots I used only Cantu Define and Shine Custard. I then air dried for the rest of the day.

I took down the still wet Bantu knots this morning and packed the hair ready for work.

I plan to do a Tea rinse this night using Green Tea, Black Tea and Camomile tea. And I make Crotchet braids tomorrow.

I hope you enjoy my wash Day ’cause I did. Bye Chicas. Have a restful Sunday. 😘😘😘😘😘

P. S.  I didn’t comb my hair.  I just finger detangled.

How To: Healthy Hair and Weaves

Hi Chicas 🙋, It’s been a while. I feel like I might have been here a while.

Today’s post is about Healthy Hair and Weaves. I feel like this days I have been lazy with my hair care and I have barely taken care of the hair underneath the weaves.

I think that’s why some women prefer wigs to weaves. 🤔 With a wig, you still have much access to the hair and scalp underneath and you can still give your…

Hi Chicas, It is a beautiful Monday morning here. I don’t know about you but Monday for me means General Meeting and General Cleaning but that is for work.

It also means I could check out the movie selection for the week. I’m excited to see Assassins Creed in the cinemas come Christmas day.

Well this post is about my Bridal photo shoot for a soon to be opened Bridal shop.

Oh it was so much fun. I was the last model to get dressed. Partly because I assisted the other models in getting dressed. I have a talent for tieing corsets and that meant everyone had me dress them.

I enjoyed putting on make up and to have been the only “Natural Hair Bride” meant a lot. Its not like I don’t appreciate a good weave but hey, my hair is much better any day.

I don’t know  the name of the shop yet but I know they open January. I hope to gist you all about it.

Here my photos. Hope you enjoy the pictorial cues. Ciao ciao. 😚😘
