Life of a Curly GIRL :)

I love the hair!!

thanks Ladies

i tried using my giovanni leave in and i didnt get the same results....but i do understand you being leery about it....ive been using conditioner since I was transitioning and it hasnt had a negative effect on my hair to my knowledge, maybe it depends on products...

Muz wrote: The puff came out cute! I'm still leery about leaving in regular conditioner unless the bottle says you can use it as a leave in. I wonder if one could get the same results using an actual leave-in since I do love my Garnier Fructis now. . .

I've been trying to stop doing this as well. I read that it can eventually cause breakage and dryness. I don't know how true that is but I'm going to experiment with it and see what results I get.

@BrownSkinDiva... You puff looks good! Cant wait until my hair is long enough to pull into a high puff!

thanks for the info jlowman1....i appreciate it, im prob gonna lay low on using the condish like that...but i adored my wash n go results tho

Hey BSD

Just wanted to stop by and see what's going on with you. How is your exercising coming along. I think I'm going to take Sat and Sun off...from the gym. I need time to run errands and stuff like that.

Cute puff!!!

So are you going to wear your Fro Sunday? If so, don't forget to take pictures...

Have a safe and wonderful holiday!!

Hey Brownskindiva!

I'm feeling big hair, too...I just don't want it to be big & DRY...I'm working on that one!

As for a creamy-like leave-in, try Alba (botanicals) Leave-in Conditioner. It has decent ingredients...it's about $10 and sold at CVS (or probably other drug stores).

Lola is looking cute and I love the colors in that dress. Also congratulations on the fitness regimen and the weight loss!

thanks so much!!!

Lola, needs to try out a new leave in conditioner, she likes Giovanni, but she wants to try something new...i welcome all suggestions

Oh Em Gee, I cannot BELIEVE my one year naturalversary is coming up like next week or so. It seems like just the other day I was shedding a few tears in the chair while getting the rest of my relaxer cut off. It was really a life changing moment for me, not that Im trying to get too deep but I never realized how much folks acceptance of me actually meant. I was so used to folks complimenting my fresh wrap or how straight my hair was, so while I transitioned I stopped getting those compliments, its kind of like I sought them for validation. My process of going natural allowed me to do something for ME, not for anyone else other than myself. I had a good support system, but there were several folks who were not in agreement with my decision as well.

Im so glad I decided to go natural, for the wonderful naturalista community, learning more about myself, and most importantly loving my hair in its natural state and taking better care of myself.

^^^Thanks!!!

Congrats on your soon to be anniversary!
