Most of us would be lying if we said we wouldn’t moonwalk over our own mothers to buy something that could possibly give us locks as long, healthy and shiny as Cassie’s. Tell Mom I said that it won’t be be necessary (and remove the bejeweled glove.)
According to the rave reviews from almost everywhere, the Carol’s Daughter Monoi Repairing Hair Mask may actually be worth the $30 price tag. Thought it is not exactly “new” as it was introduced early last year, this product makes our product scoop list because we want to know if it’s worth all the buzz.

I know you’re trying to get your hair to grow in some places but to go away in others. At least I am. However, I have an aversion to pain so waxing ain’t gone work.
To my joy, some months back, I received some Miss Jessie’s Sudsy Slip Shampoo and a few other goodies from their brand. I’m not a fan of strong scents, even if pleasant so I had to re-gift most of it. I held on to the shampoo, though, because it seemed like it’d be pretty good to try.
It collected soap scum though because I was stuck on cowashing and trying out some other brands. But one day, [click to continue…]
some people say to get the best things in life you need a connection. that rich uncle with friends in high places or a friend of a friend of your sister who put in a good word for you down at the corporate office. we’ll we say, that’s true sometimes – sometimes you just need that connection to stay on the pulse of the goods and we are hooking you up with info on connect by phylia de m. and their dna hair therapy because hesitant or not, our interest is surly piqued.

Dry Shampoo. Sounds like an oxymoron doesn’t it? But, lately it’s all my friends and I have been talking about–mostly because most of my natural hair girls are product junkies and a lot of our discussions are centered on creams and butters and puddings…(SN: You ever compare your hair diet to your personal diet? Like what would happen if we only ate creams, butters, puddings? I feel a post developing here….) Ok, back to dry shampoo. Here are the basics….
What it is: A powdery substance or liquid spray that you apply to the scalp, allow to sit for a few minutes, maybe even massaging it into the scalp for cleansing effect. Finally, you comb or brush it out.
What it does: Soaks up oil and buildup without the use of H2O
How it works: Alcohol or talc powder, which soaks up oil, is the key ingredient.
I’m blessed to have strong resolve (Read: I ain’t got the money for all that!) when it comes to hair products. I am also blessed to have one particular bestie who can’t control herself in Sephora, Ulta, or Walgreens. And yes, I’ve had to talk her into emptying her online carts more than a few times. So, I nearly ALWAYS get to try the latest goo without breaking the bank, or at least I get a review I can trust.
This time though, I’m going in [click to continue…]
so technically, hamadi is not a new line and nor is their shea leave-in but it may be new on your radar so we’re including it on our new product scoop list. their leave-in is an all organic product with no preservatives and all natural ingredients. so if you are an “o” girl, then you are going to love this stuff.
according to the manufacturer, hamadi shea leave-in is a “must” for all curly haired tresses. this cream adds body and shine to fine hair without weighing it down and creates soft looks, straight of wavy, with no trace of stickiness. natural sunscreen in shea butter protects hair and scalp and dehydrated, heat-damaged hair will benefit the most from this hydrator, while all hair types can gain a silky, luminous texture.
we love the idea of non-sticky hair because [click to continue…]
with all the hype about natural hair and curls and curly girls, hair care companies are jumping on the curly hair train by the dozens. every time i open my inbox i’m face to face with another email from either a new, up and coming start up or an established company that has now gone the natural route. it’s business and it’s big.
i’ve tried so many products that i’ve lost count. part of that is my job as a blogger because i need to give you guys as much product information as i can. of course what works for me may not work for you but it’s a start at getting familiar with a product.
when i peak into my hair product stash, i notice a couple of things right away. firstly, there is that [click to continue…]
