Keep It Straight

WINTER IS COMING!! The phrase is so played out right now but the threat is real. It's winter time which means winter weather in much of the US. Which means dry warm air inside to cause the frizzies and dry cold air outside to make you feel miserable. You've probably heard/read all the winter advise before but I thought I'd list out the "poh" girls version for those of us with a little less money in the bank/ more financial obligations than most.

Welp turns out my lovely bantu twist outs don't hold up very well in 30°C humid weather. Good to know for the summer eh?   I started using creme of nature conditioner. I love it for the slip and the deep moisturising effect. I made the mistake though of using it twice and my hair is like straw. The deep conditioning treatment I did though was *kisses fingers* so soft and easy to use.   I also did a weave (more of that in another post) and left hair out. I was very against that after the last weave but ego overrode fear of breakage. Afterall...it'll grow back right? Right?!   So lessons learned are...   1. Always check that the conditioner is light not heavy protein 2. Bantu twist outs don't last in humidity 3. 12 inches of hair is a lot! I can't believe people get longer. Kudis to them cos I dont know if I could.
