I wrapped it put on satin scarf. I took it down 6 hours later and the ends dont seem sleek to me anymore. I put castor oil on the ends. The hair feels heavier now but it seems like the ends aren't all fly-away ends anymore. I wrapped it again and hopefully the thickness and weight will help with keeping my ends looking good.Aisakhttp://www.4usnaturals.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6619950971211244776.post-17187955942320618502010-12-14T15:26:47.379-08:002010-12-14T15:26:47.379-08:00I am going to a wedding. help! this weekend. am na...I am going to a wedding. help! this weekend. am natural medium textured. i want my hair to look good all night in this dry winter weather. i have Sebastian Potion Number 9, Aveda Damage Protection, Chi Silk Infusion. my question is do i need to buy aveda anti humectant and use this all sparingly?

How long did it take to get your hair that length from when you started to focused on the health of your hair? Also, does you hair smell/ can you prevent your hair from smelling while not washing it for a month after being outside and possibly exercising?Joy W.http://www.facebook.com/weems23noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6619950971211244776.post-14435106907882200292010-05-20T12:58:44.775-07:002010-05-20T12:58:44.775-07:00loooooove you!!!!!!!!!

(i don't know how slow I am in just finding that out..haha) Do you think that would be less damaging to the hair than the usual press and flat iron procedure? Thanks! :)Monicanoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6619950971211244776.post-88917317851564773072010-05-12T15:37:51.577-07:002010-05-12T15:37:51.577-07:00Thanks for asking that Garner, and thanks for answ...Thanks for asking that Garner, and thanks for answering Nikole!! I was so curious on how you straighten your hair without heat damage. I can not wait for your tutorial!!

I use regular old school flat irons, I like them better than the chi, or the kind that you can adjust the temp on. <br /><br />I will definitely do a straightening tutorial in the near future! <br /><br />I think I am borderline addicted to thrift shopping...lol When I see something in the store now I am like $20dollars? That's too much, I can get this for $3 elsewhere...lolMop Top Mavenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01015978415066958745noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6619950971211244776.post-12435959126886350702010-05-12T07:25:51.323-07:002010-05-12T07:25:51.323-07:00Nikole, your hair is beautiful!!!

Are you going to do a straightening tutorial? I love the versatility of our hair and your blog definitely displays that. I also appreciate the fact that you address those that love "Thrift shopping" like myself!!! :)Garnerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02475823032847131814noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6619950971211244776.post-17857691535723233872010-05-12T06:12:49.355-07:002010-05-12T06:12:49.355-07:00@Whit Thank You very much!
@frenchiexpoo Yes! Def...@Whit Thank You very much!<br /><br />@frenchiexpoo Yes! Definitely; I swear by that stuff!<br /><br />@Tobi Thank you so much!!<br /><br />@Shakira C If I need to add anything to my hair, it will be Vatika Oil only. That is really the only thing that doesn't make my hair oily and stiff. If you can't find Vatika Oil [which is normally in Indian Markets], you can always buy pure coconut oil from your local grocer. <br /><br />@toolieboo It is rather hard to do for me as well; I have found the best way [for me] is to use a widetooth comb to get the tangles out while blowdrying; and work with each section until it is about 80% dry. Once the hair is about 80% dry, go over that section with the round brush and the blowdryer to silken/straighten it out. <br /><br />@Alana Do you moisturize regularly? After you get a trim; pay special care to your ends. Moisturize regularly, and seal the moisture in w/some sort of oil. Castor Oil has been working great for me lately.Mop Top Mavenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01015978415066958745noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6619950971211244776.post-53054688478657006492010-05-11T12:25:25.837-07:002010-05-11T12:25:25.837-07:00I went to the salon to straighten my hair and I fo...I went to the salon to straighten my hair and I found that my damaged ends were really noticeable.They felt so raggedy!
