Curly Hair Wash & Go | Twirl Method

I am in LOVE with my wash & go hair today! Stepping out of the box, I decided to try something new, something different, something outside of my typical wash & go routine. Since Summer of 2012, I've been a faithful subscriber to one of my favorite curly hair gurus, SunKissAlba. Watching her YouTube videos has drastically changed the condition and health of my natural curls as I became more and more educated and knowledgeable on how to care for my type 3b curly hair. 

One of her latest videos featured an updated wash & go routine in which she used a twirling method. It basically involves taking pieces of your hair and twirling it with your fingers to create big, chunky curls. Once 100% air-dried, you can separate some of the curls to create volume. I gave it a try this morning and the results were too good not to share! 

From now on, this is the way I'm going to do all of my wash & go's. My hair is completely frizz-free and well-tamed. It has more volume and it's so bouncy! This is a great way to achieve amazing, beautiful curls without heat. Let me know if you want me to film an updated wash & go hair tutorial using the twirl method. Take care!

The Curly Girl Handbook (Expanded Second Edition)

Hi there! I've been hearing about this book for a while, so I decided to purchase it and check it out for myself. I haven't read the whole thing yet, but so far I am liking it. If you have curly or wavy hair, and you wear it natural, you may also want to get your hands on this book. Whatever your curl type is, there is a daily routine for it. I never knew what mine was before buying this book (I have corkscrew curls). 

It also came with an instructional DVD showing you how to cleanse, trim, and style your own hair. Healthy hair is my main priority, so I am obsessed with caring for my hair! I'm learning more about what my hair needs and doesn't need in this book. If you're interested in more information, check out my latest video on YouTube. Let me know what you think!

My New Hair Weapon

I came across this product through YouTube and after hearing so many good things about it, I decided to try it out. I had been using so many different hair products in the past, but none of them nearly compares to this one. I am absolutely and irrevocably in LOVE with this product! I have never been committed to a hair product so fast until now. It's so amazing how good it works! If your hair frizzes up on the regular, try this product out. 

I have curly hair, so all the hair products I blog about will be more geared towards my hair type. However, this may work on other hair types as well. This frizz-correcting serum is very light. It doesn't weigh my hair down at all. I use it right after I wash or wet my hair. All curly heads should invest in this product! You can order it from www.sephora.com.
