Winter Wash and Go with You Be-Natural Curl Shaper *TIGHT*

Winter Wash and Go with You Be-Natural DiscoveringNatural

Last week, I used the You Be-Natural Curl Shaper Custard as my moisturizer and it did a great job at doing so. While I was reading the directions at the back of the container, I saw the steps for doing a wash and go. Normally, I don't do a wash and go in the winter because it is just too cold for that stuff! But then... I was intrigued when I wet a small section of my hair and applied the custard and my curls POPPED!
Hence why I did it today...

PRE- POO
I started by pre-pooing my hair with my new quick pre poo LOVE... Queen of Kinks Pre-pooing and Detangling Conditioner. This melts away any tangles in my hair.

SHAMPOO
I shampooed my hair in sections with the You Be-Natural Tangle Me Not Detangling Shampoo. This shampoo did just want it said. Now, after shampooing, I always use a rinse out conditioner, regardless of if I am using a conditioning shampoo.  I applied Trader Joe's Tea Tree Conditioner and started to work it through my hair after leaving it on for some minutes... following directions on the bottle!

Now.. not sure what happened, but after rinsing, I decided to oil my scalp and apply a little bit of oil to my hair. My hair felt tangled, stripped, and dry-wet. I think next time, I will skip the oil and see if it or the conditioner was the culprit. Didn't' like see the hair on the shower floor! No Bueno!

Still in the shower, I worked in small sections and applied the custard to my hair.

Update 1/23/2016: I rewashed my hair and only used the YBN Shampoo and TJ Conditioner, and my hair felt really good. So the culprit was the oil!!

    Your curls are really defined and your hair looks moisturized. That's a win / win.

What to do if it seems like your natural hair is not growing

Image
@breezyspuffs (IG) If it feels like your hair isn’t growing, the issue may not actually be growth itself—hair grows about half an inch per month on average. The problem may be breakage, slow growth, or factors that hinder visible length retention. Here’s what you can do to promote healthier, stronger growth: 1. Check Your Routine for Breakage Causes: • Reduce heat styling: Excessive use of flat irons, curling irons, and blow-dryers can damage hair. Try air-drying or using lower heat settings and always use a heat protectant. • Limit chemical treatments: Frequent coloring, perming, or relaxing can weaken hair, leading to breakage. • Be gentle when detangling: Use a wide-tooth comb and start from the ends, working your way up to avoid pulling and snapping. 2. Moisturize Regularly: • Dry hair is more prone to breakage, so keep it hydrated. Use moisturizing conditioners, deep conditioners, or hair masks weekly, and consider leave-in conditioners or oils like coconut

  @breezyspuffs (IG) Getting rid of split ends in natural hair involves a combination of good hair care practices and regular maintenance. Here are some effective ways to manage and reduce split ends: 1. Trim Regularly • Schedule Regular Trims : Every 8-12 weeks, visit a professional stylist or trim your hair at home with sharp hair-cutting shears to remove split ends. • Search and Destroy Method : If you prefer not to cut your hair often, this method involves trimming individual split ends as you spot them. 2. Moisturize Your Hair • Use a Deep Conditioner : Regular deep conditioning helps retain moisture, making hair less prone to splitting. • Leave-in Conditioner : Apply a leave-in conditioner after washing to maintain hydration throughout the day. 3. Minimize Heat Styling • Limit Heat Tools : Reduce the use of flat irons, curling irons, and blow dryers. • Use Heat Protectant : When you do use heat tools, always apply a heat protectant to minimi
