"As I am" review

I have tried their co-wash and loved it, so I decided to try another one of their products. I bought the leave in conditioner a couple months ago and it's about half gone but have still yet to decide if I'll buy it again or not. It smells amazing to me and detangles well, but it doesn't provide a whole lot of moisture for baby girl's hair. It does work well with a heavier moisturizer used with it tho. For a leave in it is a bit pricier, about $10 if I remember correctly. I'll give it ☆☆☆...it's not bad, just not my favorite. I'll add as well tho that my daughter's hair has different textures and curl patterns and it does work very good on the the hair around the outside of her head, which is silkier and 3c-4a curls (where as the middle of her hair is very thick and dry 4b-4c curls)

"It's a curl" review!

I purchased these 2 items a couple months ago for my little man, who is now 9 months old! His hair started curling at about 6 months old and getting a bit dry in the back so I decided to give these a try. I love that they both have a light, clean, baby scent. The shampoo gets a nice lather, which I like and it's also tear free (he doesn't sit still great so it definitely gets in his face and he has no problems). The moisturizer is a liquid,  which I wasn't expecting, but it's perfect for his hair. His curls are loose and very fine still so this works great for us. I give it ☆☆☆☆☆! We will be using these till his hair needs a bit more.

Zigzag protective style

Started with zigzag part down the middle of her head, then braided down sections and braided the loose ones together and binded in the back.  Quick, neat,  simple style :)

Simple braids and beads style

After her hair being in a poof for her dance recital all weekend I decided to do a simple protective style...I started with a deep condition and then used kids ”curls” products to style (moisture spray, custard, and oil). I actually have yet to decide if I actually like the custard for her hair, it doesn't seem to do much for moisture but I am head over heels for the cake smell lol... The beads I used I found at target a few days ago, they are actually rubber and amazing! They are so much easier to get over braids that are thicker in the back of her head. Also they seem like they wouldnt cause as much damage on the hair either. I always worry regular hard plastic beads will break her hair (I might just be weird tho lol)...anywho, I totally recommend them! :)
