Favorite Products for a Twist Out

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 Love has an array of scented buttercreams that can be used on your hair or body. This product left my hair feeling soft and shiny. The Bahamas mama scent I received was pure heaven.  Even better an 8 oz. jar is only $10.

Cantu Leave-In Conditioning Repair Cream



This may come as a surprise but I use Cantu Leave-In as a styling product. Because I leave my twists in for two days I still get definition. I also love that fact that I can run out to my local drug store to pick up this product.

Finally Approved for Breast Reduction

-
I'm super excited to announce that my insurance company finally approved my breast reduction. It's been a long and often times frustrating process but I was very determined. Below is timeline of when I started my journey and the steps I took to get my insurance approval.  2016  I lost a little over 20 pounds..without trying mind you but my large breasts remained OUT OF CONTROL. I was still wearing a DDD.  I begin experiencing back pain and taking otc pain medication. After a horrible and stressful Summer, I began to seriously consider a breast reduction. I also started seeing a chiropractor .  My then OBGYN gave me several plastic surgeon referrals. Nearly all of them didn't accept insurance and the one that did required that I go through several months of physical therapy. I put the thoughts of surgery on hold and continue to take my meds.  2017 I had alot going on this year. I'd gotten engaged the year before and was planning a Spring wedding.

Cypress Oil for Varicose Veins

Varicose veins are unattractive and can be very painful. I started to get small varicose veins in my late 20’s. Recently though the veins became inflamed and swollen. I work from home and sometimes stand up in front of my computer. This is not good for circulation in the legs. I took to the internet in search for a natural remedy.  Cypress Oil was the number one suggestion for varicose veins.  After reading about the benefits I headed immediately to my Whole Foods and picked up this vial for only $10.00. Cypress Oil is hemostatic and styptic. In other words, it promotes blood circulation. I applied five drops directly to my veins and made a buttercream . Two hours later, the pain had subsided. Right before bed, I applied the buttercream to my legs. When I woke in the morning I was amazed!! The swelling was completely gone, there was no pain and the vein coloring had nearly faded. I've been using essentials for a while but I’m very impressed at how effective this oil

The L.C.O. Method

-

One of the biggest challenges of having natural hair is retaining moisture. When I first went natural I instantly noticed a difference. It also didn't help that I lived in a dry area such as Phoenix. Many women use the L.O.C. (liquid, oil, and cream) method however more of us are leaning towards the L.C.O. (liquid, cream, and oil) method for moisturizing our hair. Honestly I just find that using oil as the last product makes more sense. I never really tried the L.O.C. method so I really never had a reason to switch over. I go into a little more detail on why I prefer the L.C.O method in one of my recent uploads.
