After getting a sample of this product from Ulta I was completely blown away from the results I received after trying it for the first time. I was convinced that I needed to get the full size jar because of the way it left my hair. This product does come with a hefty price but I truly believe that it is worth every penny. ($48 for 16.9 fl. oz)

Wash Day 1. Shampoo with Nexxus Pro Mend 2. Condition with Nexxus Humectress 3. Deep Condition with Macadamia Natural Oil Masque (1hr) HAIR FELT GREAT! 4. I applied my leaves in & heat protectant 5. Blow Dry & Flat Iron I just trimmed my hair, myself ! When I was done with my washing routine I notice that my ends were DRY. Something I never notice. My entire head was still wet but my ends, they had dried up so quickly & felt rough. & out of no where I TRIM THEM I don't know why I decided to cut it I just did. Now I'm having a love hate relationship with my "cut". I love that my ends feel so much more better but I hate that my hair is back to the same length it always stays at & it's UNEVEN! I'm debating if I should go to the salon & get it cut evenly causing it to be even shorter or just wait. I don't know ladies help me decide please. Other then that I had a successful wash day being that I used NO product's that had...

Doesn't This Picture Make You Excited ; Lol :) Am I the only one excited for this season? seems like it. I've ask a few people how they feel about the fall season and I didn't really receive any good feedback. Some said its not the best because summer over, going back to school and winter is soon after. But I love the fall it's my FAVORITE season from the color changes in the leaves to the fashion and the holidays that come! I was planning on doing a fall series on my blog but I'm not sure how successful it would be but I want to try it out. I already have some ideas on what I can post like fall essentials and even ootd maybe ? I don't know though I do want to expand my blog to not only hair care but also fashion & makeup & this can possibly be my way of expanding it. But I know that the people that are subscribe to my blog subscribe because it's a hair care blog. I don't know I'm interested in what you ladies think. Also trying to...

My wash day this past week wasn't very good. My hair just didn't like anything I had put in it. I had done my first ACV Rinse which wasn't very good & I also decided to prepoo, which didn't turn out well either. (O9l1O) 1. Prepoo with Honey, EVOO & EVCO. I decided to prepoo so that I can find another type of way of adding some type of "protein" in my hair. I know that coconut oil acts like a "protein" & helps to mend the hair. I left the mix in my hair for 30mins. Once it was rinsed out my hair was difficult to detangle ! Like I didn't even want to put a comb in my hair. It felt hard and no where close to being soft or moisturized. It was just horrible 2. Shampoo with Nexxus Pro Mend Shampoo. I followed up with this shampoo to rinse out the mixture. 3. Condition with Suave Knock off of the Nexxus Humectress which I LOVE ! But this time it didn't really moisturize my hair very good like usual and it wasn't as soft. 4. I...

I was in need of a heat protectant being that I do use heat frequently and the one that I wanted wasn't readily available, so I went to my local BSS to get one. I decided to take you ladies advice to purchase the L'oreal Sulfate Free Shampoo but being that I was pretty excited to have found it I ended up getting the conditioner -___- like Really ? But its okay you can never have enough conditioner. The heat protectant that I'm planning to purchase is found only in Sephora so in the meantime I decided on this dove heat protectant not sure how good it is but I decided on this because I didn't like the tresemme heat protectant. The detangler & applicator bottle I decided to purchase on a whim. As for the Macadamia Natural Oil Masque I had wrote previously how I was in love with the deep conditioner and was going to get the full size jar. I purchase this two weeks ago and planning to do a review in another week so you ladies can know how I feel about it so stay tune for...

I realized that maybe waiting every two weeks to wash my hair isn't going to work out for me. My hair feels so much more better when it has been cowashed and M&S frequently. So every other week I'm going to cowash atleast two times that week and deep condition once that week. I'm still putting my regimen together but I'm planning to include this and see how it works around my school schedule and my hair. Today I decided to start this off & this is what I did: 1. Shampoo with HE Hello Hydration 2. Condition with HE Color Me Happy 3. Deep Condition with NTM Deep Mask 4. T-Shirt Dry for 10 minutes 5. Apply Leave In's NTM Silk Touch & Sealed with EVOO 6. Style (4 Twist) I'm not planning to shampoo weekly only when I decide to flat iron but today I just felt like I needed to today. I'm planning on getting a sulfate free shampoo just to see how I would like them. A ny Sulfate-Free Shampoo You Ladies Can Recommend?
