Sassy Southern Curls

Over the past few months I’ve really neglected my hair and got into some old habits. I was using excessive heat and pulling/tugging on my hair. I knew if I keep it up my cuticles would suffer.   Every since I saw the Green Beauty’s channel video on hydrolyzed wheat protein, I’ve been wanting to try it.    So what is hydrolyzed wheat protein?   Hydrolyzed or hydrolysis is a chemical reaction using water. A water molecule is added to split a large compound into smaller ones. The water molecule also splits during the reaction. Notice the water fragments attached to the two smaller compounds in the diagram. The key word here is WATER.  Water = moisture.  Our hair is 91% keratin protein. A protein treatment will patch up damaged cuticles and make your hair stronger/hydrated. Hydrolyzed wheat protein has a smaller molecular weight then other proteins. This allows for the product to actually penetrate the hair shaft unlike your traditional diy protein treatments

Products products products. Since my channel is mostly dedicated to product reviews and hairstyles, I thought I’d go into a little more detail on my favorite products for twist outs.   TGIN – Twist and Define Cream After seeing Charyjay’s review of the TGIN collection, I knew I had to try this line. The TGIN Twist and Define Cream is a lightweight cream that'll leave your hair feeling soft and moisturized. I also love the fact that they carry sample sizes.  Kiss My Knots Moisturizing Hair Creme Kiss My Knots is a fairly new hair company that I was introduced to this summer. The owner Elizabeth Nonie sent me her Moisturizing Hair Creme and hair oil to review.   This moisturizing hair crème is one of the smoothest stylers I’ve ever used. It has a light scent and a little product goes a long way.  Natural Love Hair & Body Buttercreame I received a sample of Natural Love’s Hair & Body Buttercreame in my INHMD swag bag.   Natural Lov
