terressentials twist

This is a close up of my two strand twist. My hair was washed 2 days ago with the lavender mud wash, I then added my shea butter mix. My hair is ridiculously soft and I can't wait to debut my twist out this weekend. I am so excited to be able to use such simple products for my already simple routine :)

Terressentials Mud wash shampoo

I used this shampoo last night and have nothing but great things to say about it. I ordered the lavender kind in a 20oz bottle, it was $20 and $8 for shipping. When I first smelled it, I was kinda suprised. I had heard that it had a lovely smell, but I thought the smell was kinda intense, almost like a strong perfume. It didnt smell bad, it was just a strong smell lol.

I applied the shampoo to my hair that was in small two strand twist,  I put my twist in 12 braids. I must say it was kinda difficult to apply, I tried using just my hands but felt like I was wasting so much, next I used a baby sized brush. This didnt work to well either. Finally, I began dipping each braided section in the wash mixture. After I saturated each braid, I poured the remainder on my scalp and then massaged it in. To rinse it out, I just hopped in the shower and ran my head under the water.

While washing, my hair felt "minty" it felt like I had toothpaste in my hair, almost like a "cool burn" sensation. Im not sure what that was about, but I rinsed a second time because I thought I didnt rinse well. That minty sensation eased up and was gone by the morning.

Now, the best part. This stuff left my hair feeling so so soft. It felt like I pre-pooed, deep conditioned, sealed and all, lol. but is was just the shampoo. I didnt apply anything to my hair after because I wanted to see if the shampoo alone would keep my hair feeling soft and moisturized once it dried. In the morning , my hair still felt great :)

The website refers to "detoxing" your hair. I dont think I will have to because, during and after the wash my hair didnt feel sticky like the site said it may. Granted, I hadnt been using too many chemicals, so the wash didnt have much chemical/plastics to remove from my hair.

Overall this mud wash gets a 10/10! I cant keep my hands out of my hair lol. I am tempted to take my twist out and do another was tonight..... just for fun lol

anyways, heres a link to the site terressentials.com and for more reviews naptural85 of youtube has 2 videos on it

I will post a video soon of either my application or just my rambling and pics of my hair after the wash!

hair with bee mine curly butter and shea butter mix

It has been a long time of trying products for my kids hair. I ordered bee mine curly butter and daily moisture spray and received it a couple days ago. For my son, I washed his hair with breck ($ store) shampoo/ conditioner then I detangle with the tangle teezer and bee mine curly butter. His hair instantly felt and looked great. His little curls were soft and defined.the picture is second day hair for him, which we are normally not able to get.

For my daughter I just added the bee mine curly butter to her dry hair and detangled to put her hair in a puff. Her results were ok. I will have to try it again when her hair is freshly washed with nothing on it.

Later on in the day, we made a shea butter mix (unrefined shea butter, coconut oil, and olive oil) It only took about 10 minutes to do and the results were great. We tried it out in our hair and skin and it made both feel like velvet.

Once my terressentials mud wash shampoo arrives, I will finally be able to start my new and improved regimen. I am so excited and hope to see great results in my hair and m kids hair :)

products, products, products!

i have a serious problem lol. I have ordered quite a few products over the last few weeks.  I ordered my tangle teezer, bee mine products, and terressential hair wash. My hair wash comes monday! I cant wait for it.

I didnt just order these things "just because" I am on a serious mission to simplifly my hair products and find some products that will allow me to feel comfertable wearing "out"styles. I dont wear "out" styles too often because my hair never feels soft or fluffy enough and its also lacking movement. I assume, its the products that are just not working for my hair.

ok, i am too sleepy to go on lol. i will be posting a more deailed video of my recent purchases as soon as my terressentials arrives!

this weeks twist and aloe vera

I decided to twist this time around with ORS twist n lock gel. As I have stated before i have been having problems keeping my hair soft n moisterized...... on to the aloe vera

For the sake of boredom, curiosity, and the little scientist in me, I decided o extract some aloe vera gel from my plant and spritz my hair with it. I must say it felt lovely on my hands, when I put it in my hair at first it felt sticky and dry, but as I rubbed it in it began to make my hair feel really soft. I'm excited to see the results in the morning. I also twisted large sections of my hair and kinda pincurled it tonight for tonmorows style. I am hoping I will have some length and a nice curl to my twist . Oh yeah I have a video of my aloe vera extraction, will upload soon :) all for now!
