Finding Hidden Treasures**

Hey Ladies,

I know its been a few weeks but I am back to you with my topic on hidden treasures. I am simply talking about those products we used or had back when our hair was relaxed for those of us who once had relaxed hair.

 Reently I ran out of my good leave in conditioner and I was stuck with nothing as a back up plan or so I thought.  I use to be a serious product junky so I went into one of many hair product bags that I have and found a jar of Cantu Shea butter leave in.

The first thought that came to mind when I spotted this product was ugh? This stuff doesn't mix well with anything. Well ladies I am here to tell you that some products simply are so good they need not the help of the others being mixed with it. So I decided to give it a second chance.

I cowashed my hair with my matrix biolage conditioniong balm. Then I detangled with Lustrasilk Shea butter Cholesterol conditioner. Next I began to two strand twist my hair with the Cantu Shea butter and some melted raw shea butter.

To my surprise I got the best twist out ever. I got soft and thick luscious twists and my hair loves this stuff.  I believe I have found a twist out staple for now. You can find Cantu Sheat Butter in your local hair stores for a low price of $3.99-$5.99 not bad huh?

I must say this has indeed been a hidden treasure of mine remember just because it doesn't work the first try don't be afraid to try it again. You never know where your hidden treasures lie.

(Below are pics of my results)

Twistouts Take Practice Still Perfecting!!

Hey Ladies,

I was recently a judge at a college event and I saw this girl who had what I would like to call the perfect twist out!! Her hair was simply beautiful the twist perfect. They were thick, juicy , soft and very well hydrated.

As most of you know I love anything that involves beautiful hair and I just had to ask her how she achieves such a flaw less look. To my surprise everything she used I had in stock.

I imediately made plans to try my twist out style again. Previously I had not been a fan because they took so much time and never came out right but this time it was different.

Here what I used:
1.Shea Moisture Curling Smoothie
2. Cantu Shea Butter Leave In
3. Raw Shea Butter Melted
4. Water and Extra Virgin Olive oil in Spray bottle
5. Its optional if you want to section hair off in to 4-6 sections but its helps make it a bit easier I think.

6.Its up to you the size of your twist I like mine to be medium in size because I like big hair and I twisted my hair while it was damp just after I rinsed my deep conditioner off and I only used the water bottle to re hydrate hair that dried over time as I was twisting other sections of my hair.

Below are pics of my hair following conditioner and after I twisted. (Also you can pin your twist up and wear them for a few days!!
