Momma got a break!

My best friend is about to finish cosmetology school the end of summer and wanted to get more practice braiding curly/textured hair. Took 5 hours but she did good! ☺

Baby boy's hair continued

I previously posted a picture of my son's hair dry. Here is a pic of it fresh out the bath with the miss jessies leave in conditioner and organix/OGX coconut milk serum.

Baby boy's hair

I figured since I've been talking a bit more about my son's hair and products I use on him, that I should post a picture of his hair for you to better compare how products may work on your hair too. I've previously posted a picture of my daughter's hair, so you can also now see the difference between both their hair types.

Argan oil review

I read many reviews of this product and how much people loved it, but I wasn't totally sold. I kept thinking it was going to be a very thin runny oil, such as coconut oil or tea tree oil. I ended up finding a small sample size at sally's beauty supply for about $3 so decided to give it a try. I FELL IN LOVE IMMEDIATELY! It was so silky and ran thru her hair so nicely. Surprisingly it was also decently thick! Most thick oils tend to be sticky in her hair and most thin oils tend to not moisturize her hair enough. But this Argon oil was the perfect mix of thick, moisturizing and slippery. Absolutely love this stuff! Not sure how much this big bottle cost since my mom bought it for us, but I don't even care, it lasts a while and works amazing! The smell is kind of manly in my opinion, not sure how to describe it, but it's not bad at all. I think this product would work well with any hair type, just have to use different amounts for texture and thickness of hair.

Baby boy's hair products

My son's hair is opposite of my daughters. His hair is very soft, silky and he also has looser curls. I bought some products to try on my daughter, which they worked fine, but when used on my son it worked great! Miss jessies leave in conditioner, if I remember correctly, ran somewhere between $15-$20 and the OGX coconut milk serum ran about $10-$15...Miss jessies alone left his hair somewhat crunchy, but his curls super defined. When I added the coconut milk serum to the leave in it created magic lol...his hair stayed so soft, no crunch, smelled amazing (more of a fresh scent than cake or floral), his hair didn't look greasy but it had a soft healthy shine. I'm not totally set on buying either product again since the price was pretty high and his hair stays well managed with either nothing or Garnier fructis leave in conditioner (for about $3), but as he gets older and if I keep growing his hair out I'll probally come back to these products again!

Mixed chicks review

So I've tried mixed chicks leave in conditioner on my daughter's hair when she was about 2 years old and absolutely hated it...her hair has changed alot since then and products I originally loved weren't working quite the same. I remembered one thing about the product that I actually loved was the slip, so I decided to give it another try. I bought a sample size to start and also bought their mixed silk...the 2 together is amazing in her hair! My fingers glide thru beautifully and her hair stays pretty well moisturized till taken out her styles. As shown in this picture, her hair was in twists for about 4 days and still super soft and shiny! The product is more costly than I'd like, about $15 for the hair silk and about  $20 for the leave in. But it works well with her hair now so I can't complain too much....the leave in alone smells not the greatest, but the hair silk has a better scent and actually smells pretty good when together (not sure how to explain the scent tho). If you like or need product with slip, I'd definitely give mixed chicks a try! Our other favorite products became too thick and sticky for her hair these days, so this is perfect for now ☺
