NEW DO w/ Updates.. Oh & My 2 New Favorite Hair Products

 April 19, 2011... I decided to try something super new with my hair.. I always rocked a style with length so this go round I wanted to try something short and with some curls. My friend (who hair I been doing besides my own for last month) picked up some hair. Of course she changed her mind so I decided to take it and try it on myself. 

The Hair Info:  
Brand: Model Model
Style: 3 piece Spiral Deep #4 and 1b
Total Packs of hair Purchased: 3 
Price: $13.99 at my local Beauty Supply Store (SCORE)



I use 2 whole packs and 1 piece of the 3rd pack. Its took me abt 1 and 1/2 to complete this look. Here are a couple pics.. I must say I loooove this look on me. I will be rocking similar styles this summer.  So far so good. The hair style is a flexi rod style.

The START

Side View
The Back
Day 1
Day 2
Yes when the hair gets old the curls start to fall and frizz a little. I like the curly bush look so this works for me.
Day 5..Easter Sunday...w/ Torrance
****HAIR UPDATE April 26,2011 DAY 6 ****
Starting to get a bit bushy


This hair is NOT for a quick weave style. Its more for a wear NOW and take it off later..lol Again I did leave some of MY own hair out at the top. For the most part this style lasted for about 7 days (1 week). Using a silk bonnet to sleep in and adding a little bit of Wig Shine on the 4th or 5th day.
Yes.. I'm at work looking like this..lol so you know when I got home I took it OUT..
My Hair at the top...EEEEKKKKK


I think OVERALL with the humidity and rain may have also caused my hair to frizz/bushy. I'm still a fan of this hair and for the price you cant beat it..SO YES I will be rocking this look again real soon.. w/o my own hair out of course..lol
**MY NEW FAVorite THINGS**
 
Now on to the good stuff. While I was reading the May/June Issue of Juicy Magazine: w/ Nicki Minaj on the cover I discovered my new FAVorite Hair Product..
If you have NOT checked out Juicy Magazine please do. Its not called JUICY for nothing..lol
There was an article about Nicki Minaj and what hair products she uses on her hair. While rocking all of her many styles of wigs she needs to keep her hair healthy and prevent dry scalp. So since I am a huge Nicki (#teamMinaj) fan I decided to pick up this product and try it for my self..
The 1st Item: Ultra Sheen Ultra Care Hydrating Leave In Cream Conditioner 
Walmart: $3.49
I must say I have tried tons of different brands of Leave-In conditioners and most of them normally leave my hair super dry and brittle. Since I do have thick coarse hair I try to use products that are recommended by African American woman. Don't get me wrong it maybe some other products out there that may work for me and I have not found them yet.  
I'm in love with this product. My hair was easy to comb and blow dry. I didn't have a lot of dead hair or breakage. Once my hair was completely dry it had a little shine to it and wasn't NOT dry at all. 
Ladies you cant go wrong with this price so yes I recommend this product. IF you decide to try it let me know what you think. 
The 2nd Item: Doo Gro Anti Itch Growth Oil 
Beauty Supply Store $8


This item is amazing and it does exactly what it says. I have been using this product for about a month or 2 now and I looooove it. Especially with me wearing different wig/quick weave styles. Its a bit pricey but its worth it. Doo Gro has other products I would like to try in the future. If your interested check out there web site http://www.doogro.com/
