What’s Your Hair Cocktail

Every woman has her favorite mixed drink, but noone talks about their favorite hair cocktail. I surveyed my fab friends and asked for their hair regimine.

Hair Type 1: Naturally curly, very thick, permed for several years, decided to go natural!! Wants to flip between straight and curly.

Shampoo – Deva Curl No-Poo: non-drying, no lather, but very moisturizing, a whole new way to no-poo ur hair!

Condition – Deva Curl One-Condition and Mixed Chicks deep conditioner once a week.

Leave-In Conditioner: Mixed Chicks Leave In or Humectress by Nexxus – or sometime a lil of both. Great detanglers

Styling: Curls Soufflee (also tried milkshake): http://www.curls.biz/curly-hair-products/Curl-Souffl-p-16149.html or Miss jessy pudding, its a lil too heavy for me.

Hair Type 2: Straight, extremely thick, permed for several years, decided to go natural, wants to stay straight!Shampoo- Paul Mitchell tea tree shampoo. Or the generic version of it that they sell at sallys. I love it because it smells great and it tinglesConditioner- tea tree conditioner. It tingles too

Styling: carols daughter black vanilla leave in conditioner. My hair has a tendency to look dull so I use a teeny bit of carols daughter hair elixir while it’s still wet. Right now I am using a combo of the Mixed chicks leave in, miss jessies curly buttercreme, and carols daughter hair milk.

Deep condition once a week with miss jessies rapid recovery treatment (thanks to Alicia)

Straight hair- carols daughter black vanilla leave in conditioner and a dime size amount of the healthy hair butter to moisturize. After blow drying and flat ironing I use d’zire hair gloss. A high watt blow dryer. I use bluebird 2100 watts and the infamous chi

Somebody Pull Out The Hot Comb – Pull On My Weave ?!

Who thought THIS was a good idea?! This video is going to single-handily wipe out the entire male race. ATTENTION ALL MEN READERS: Do NOT follow this advice. Women have lots of great things to pull on, but weave is NOT one of them.

And to the particular men in this video. What was going on in your head? What were the casting call details for this gig:
- Must love weave
- Must have the ability to remain extra greasy.

I especially love the moments at 1:30, 1:57, and 2:10, when the men go into a Yaki-induced trance and touch the hair ever so softly.. LMAO

If you take nothing else from this, please know that you should always look for the silver lining. Pulling on my weave might be a bad idea in most cases, but for our friend Tamika, it might help a bit if someone pull on her weave though… from the FRONT! She’s got a little Vivica Fox going on.

Speaking of look a likes – Tamika kinda looks like a cross between Big Mike and Kim.. HEY Professor Ogulvie…..LMAO!
