YouTube Queens - Naptural85 and Kimmaytube Combined

Okay, I know I've been taking a break from this blogging thing, it's sooooo easy to "forget" about it. It in no way means that I have stopped experimenting with new methods of hair care. I am so in love with Naptural85, she is my ultimate hair inspiration. I love how simple her routine is and how easy she makes it look, because I have found it to be a lot harder to find what works well for my hair. If I can get the moisturizing thing in control, I feel like we could be hair twins!! I have almost kicked the product junkiness. One thing I have learned recently is that I cannot, I repeat cannot do the Wash and Go. As much as I would love to, my ends say NO, NO, NO. My recent trials with it has left me with weathered ends that badly need trimming. So sad.
Everyone knows about Kimmaytube and her success. I originally started off watching her, but everyone knows about Kimmaytube. Her channel can get kind of long winded, I like short, simple and sweet. The one item everyone raves about is her leave-in. The recipe is all over the internet so I will not bother reposting here. I tried it, and it works well in conjunction with the yogurt conditioner. My twist out was defined and soft and it lasted the whole week. My problem is consistency, I have trouble sticking to things. I really need to get a routine, I am losing length with these darned, crappy ends. They are my set back. I was thinking of getting my hair braided up for the summer, but I think I will try to stick with this for a month and get my hair done in July. That sounds like a plan.
Here's what I used and my results of the two methods. Enjoy!

Is Water Only Washing on your TO DO LIST?

What have I been up to in my life? Well, golly gee whiz, thanks for asking! Like many of you, I've been just living. I'm kind of tired of that routine so I've have been making a half ass attempt at sprucing up my life. HOW, you might ask? Nothing drastic, just small changes that I'm trying to get used to before so that they can become staples in my life. I don't want to do something that's a total 360 from what I'm used to, I'm easing into transition. Yes, just like when I was transitioning from relaxed to natural. Wait....I didn't transition, I wore a wig for 2 weeks and said "TA HELL WIT DAT, IF THEY DON'T LIKE IT, DEN DON'T LOOK!!" Shoot, my head was itching and sweating, I couldn't take, I cut t

Water Only Washing......Beyond 30 days

After a warm/cold rinse More than a year ago, I decided to for go using traditional shampoos and conditioners. I started whipping up my own hair products with some success, but nothing to brag about. Now I always have an assortment of butters, oils and essential oils, not to mention aloe vera, distilled water and honey. My bathroom cabinets look more like a pastry kitchen than a place to do your business! I wasn't exactly losing any hair and checking out new hair recipes was my quiet, me time. Through mostly browsing the web I happened upon the water only method after trying the max hydration method (MHM) for about a month. Though I liked some of the results I was getting with MHM, it didn't have the simplicity that I was looking for. I was basically looking to do nothing to my hair, but I still needed to look presentable #sistagotaJOB, so I found the simplest method for WOHW from an article on BGLH . I couldn't believe I hadn't thought of it before. Not sh
