Hair of the Day - Wash & Go Puff with Flat Twists

Start by moisturizing your hair however you normally do. I use my DIY conditioning spritz and my Shea Moisture Deep Treatment Masque (I think that's the name) as a leave-in. Section off the front of your hair and take your loosened Ouchless headband, wrapping it around twice, and slowly bring hair up into the puff. Take the front section and, after detangling, divide in two. Add more of your leave-in for shine (if desired) and flat twist back, securing with bobby pins. Once the front sections are twisted, carefully bring them into the headband.

You can use gel to get the sides smoother. I prefer not to ... but to each his own :)
Enjoy!

My Pre-Poo Experiment!

So on my quest to find a way to increase the moisture my hair retains, I tried the pre-poo. If you've never heard of pre-pooing, it's when you apply a conditioner and/or oils to the hair prior to shampooing. The purpose is to ensure that something is left on the hair after shampooing and the hair isn't stripped of all its moisture and oils after shampooing. I always noticed that my hair is very dry after shampooing so I thought this would be perfect for me! Unfortunately ... it wasn't. My hair still felt dry after shampooing. But one thing I DO really like is the way my hair feels after I apply oil and let it sit under a plastic cap. So I'm actually going to be using this as a POST-poo from now on. It really helped when I was twisting my hair to have softened, moisturized hair.


Have a beautiful day!
