It's All About the Hair

Hair, hair, and more hair.

I am determined to take better care of all the hair in my domain.
We discovered http://www.blendedbeauty.com,
a website dedicated to biracial hair products.

Just what I needed to get a better handle on all this HAIR!
Apparently we have a type 1, a type 2, AND a type 3.
It is a fly away, frizzy, dried out mess. :(
Erika did the initial shampoo and
THEN
we went for the deep herbal conditioner.
She enjoyed the beauty treatment.
This is a shower cap that I brought home from a hotel last year.
She kept it and, sure enough, it came in handy.
After combing her hair out, we looked on the web and
found a tutorial for twists and gave it a try.
The deep conditioning worked.
We have never seen her hair look so good.
The twists were fun to do and pretty easy
after I twisted everything in the right direction.
I bet we will do even better next time.
This whole process took about four hours.
Soon enough we will be straightening
and I won't be on duty anymore.
I think I will be sad.

  1. I love twists, we do them a lot. They also look great when you take them out of the bands. We usually let her wear them loose for a day or two. We think they look a little bit more grown up then braids.

    Thanks for leaving a comment on my blog. I know another Jennifer Peterson that is an adoptive mom and I always assumed you were her. Now I know there are two. Blessings to You.
