Shampoo Day

The J's swam all day Saturday, so their hair was rinsed afterwards. Because they arrived home late, there was no time to shampoo before church on Sunday and the 4th of July festivities. So, after the movies today guess what I'm doing...hair. I'll take before and after pictures and maybe take my first shot at a vid.

Until next time,

Cheers,

Bantu Knots...Second Attempt

O.K. Yesterday I did Bantu Knots on dry hair with EcoStyler, spritzing my hair with water and cocunut oil combo. It came out awesome. I've tried before on wet hair and it came out really frizzy. I'll try to post pics of the knot out soon. The intersting thing is I do this on the girls hair all the time without any product and it looks just as good.

Until next time,

Cheers

Staple Hair Products...

I've been experimenting with the J's hair as well as mine and reading various blogs regarding natural hair, specifically SistahChick (I love that blog). I can see how it becomes very easy to get caught up in the world of "products" and become a product junkie. Fortunately, I've not gone astray yet but below are staple products we're currently using for maintaining our healthy hair:
- Organix Nourishing Milk Coconut Shampoo
- Dr. Bronner's Peppermint Castile Soap
- Herbal Essence Hello Hydration Conditioner
- Giovanni Smooth as Silk Deep Moisture Conditioner
- Giovanni Direct Leave in Conditioner
- Elasta QP Glaze
- Aloe Vera Gel
- Shea Butter mixed with Essential Oils, i.e., Almond, Jojoba, Olive, and Coconut Oils etc. Our hair absolutely loves this stuff.

I can see a difference in the girls hair as it’s less dry and brittle. Now I do have other products that I've had forever such as Miss Jessie’s Baby Buttercreme and Curly Pudding but I haven't used them in a very long time. As far as other products are concerned, I placed an order for lil better butter last week and awaiting my shipment. I will let you know how that works on the girls hair as well.

Well guys, enjoy your holiday. Have fun and be safe!

Getting Back to Normal Soon

Wow, I haven't blogged in a while. I will definitely get back to it soon. What's been going on with me: Well, closed our store (physical location) and have been learning how to manipulate the online store (www.ShopDollarD.com).

In addition to that, my kids have been under the weather. I took all three to the doctor as they have three different ailments. Can you believe I left the doctors office with seven (7) different prescriptions. Anyhoo, they are doing much better.

So, needless to say, I've been a tad distracted and I haven't even mentioned all the sorority projects I'm involved in.

I'll get back to normal soon. Bear with me.
