One thing all of us natural girls have in common is the dreaded wash day. Unless you have a twa, wash day can be time consuming. I find myself sometimes making excuses in attempt to avoid washing my hair. I finally give in like most of you. My motto for hair care has always been: keep it simple. However due to the thickness and length of my hair, wash day is nothing but that.   Here are the details: Detangle I detangle twice, once on dry hair and again on wet hair with conditioner. I typically detangle the night before and re-twist my hair in large twists. I don’t have a go to detangle spray but lately I’ve been using kwenCH’s Dale moisturizing spray.   Sometimes I just use warm water and coconut oil. Detangling takes me around 30 minutes. Wash I co-wash weekly, wash monthly and use a clarifying shampoo every 2-3 months. I use A LOT of conditioner. I’d say 75% of the bottle.

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.

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...
