Has anyone tried E'Tae products? My sister swears by it but since I'm not interested in straightening my hair, I'm unclear about what the benefits would be.

Ehhh....not sure how I feel about this outré big beautiful hair 4a wig. Didn't care for it long or medium or cut shorter. I think it's the density. I'd like the 4a in the density of the 3c and vice versa. And I picked out the curls too much in some areas. Will probably go back to the straight hair until Tuesday. Then I'll do a hot water perm rod set on this one after I finish picking it into a shape that I love.

They ain't fooling us. We call it prepoo.

I only use the caramel treatment, Its very good. I use it for prepoo and to put moisture back into my hair. I use it over lackluster DC's and on its own with damp hair

Sitting with this Henna/Amla/Horsetail/Nettle Root tea on my head. Had to let it airdry a little before covering with my plastic cap - the drippies were killing me!
Got my moisturizing DC mix waiting in the wings. Gonna airdry and then use a warm flat iron to seal the cuticles.
I've been reading up on sealing the hair with heat and it's something I'm going to try to see if it will help get me over the MBL hump.

I think I'm going to wear scarfs for a few weeks. Just tired of doing my hair and no longer want to be bothered. I think I'll cornrow it really small and maybe wash/deep conditiin twice a week. I wonder if my hair will become more hydrated.

@NaturallyATLPCH. Are you twist bunning on damp, wet, or dry hair?

Nothing worse than dull, greasy feeling hair.

I dampen dry hair with APB's leave in @victory777 . I put it in twists to stretch it, let it dry in those twists, then spray a little APB leave in to pull it back in a puff with some gel, then take sections, twirl then ends, then pin them.

I did not know Tangle Teaser was a British invention. The company is starting to sell a brush for curlies with longer teeth, but only at Sephora in the US right now. I will wait...

I have this one and I LOVE it. I loved the original, but I had to divide my hair into smaller sections due to the shorter teeth. The one for thicker hair works wonderfully and truly is for those with thicker/denser hair as I can detangle more hair in less time. I know that the TT has gotten a bad rep, but I love mine and I highly recommend it.

Thanks for the glowing review! Do you think the price will drop soon? I could get it now, but I am so cheap by habit.

I think I will stick to doing a protein treatment every 6-8 weeks. I just did two in the span of I think two weeks and my hair feels crispity crackety. I don't think my hair needs protein like that. Maybe I'll just stick to balanced masques.

I got mine on HQhair.com. $13.50, no tax and free shipping...BUT it takes a minute to get to the states. I think they are UK based? It took about 2 weeks to get my package but I could wait and it was worth saving a couple of bucks!

SOLD!
I had better take advantage on the favorable exchange rate now.
LOL! I hope it works for you!

On the Grow and Keeping it Simple
For the first time in 2 months, I took my twists down completely and washed my hair loose. My hair is in great condition and besides a few snags, detangling was pretty easy. I'm going right back to twists, I just wanted chunkier twists and to redo my parts.

the Paul Mitchell detangler generic version is amazing. It softens and detangles. It's funny because I bought it a year ago and didn't like it, but I decided to use it this week and I love it. What I do is wash twice with it.
This conditioner is effective and super affordable, it will become my cowash and possibly deep conditioner. I also want to go back and try the Tresseme perfecly undone conditioner because I remember it being super softening and it's even cheaper than the PM conditioner.
I tried pairing the cantu curl activator with the taliah wajid curly curl cream and it literally curdled in my hair. I've never had that happen with anything else ever, LOL.
If I ever do a wash n go again, I won't be using gel. Only the cantu curl activator or some other curl activator.. the cantu stuff actually does define curls and has a light hold.

It looks like Sheena has lost weight. I couldn't view the video in the item details.

Yes, but not since a couple of years ago. They shipped pretty quickly to me. I hope that everything works out!
