I am definitely a self proclaimed product junkie. I love all things beauty, and ever since I started on my curly hair journey I have collected quite a bit of curl goodies. I absolutely love trying new products and I have been lucky enough to have been gifted many of them by hair companies looking for reviews. I like to mix and match stylers from different brands, and I definitely think that trial and error is the best way to find out what works on your curls, and what doesn’t.
Generally I wash my hair with either a no lather or low lather shampoo 2 or 3 times a week and use a very thick conditioner. On days I don’t shampoo, I usually wash my hair with just conditioner. Using a lot of different products can sometimes cause build-up, so whenever I get flakes or itchiness I use a clarifying shampoo, focusing just on my scalp. I try to remember to deep condition my hair at least once a week I normally apply the deep conditioner on my hair when its dry and cover my head with a shower cap and leave on for about 15-20 minutes and then rinse. For stylers, I always start off with a curl cream, followed by a gel, then a mousse. I rake the products in, and distribute them with a styling brush. I usually scrunch my hair with a microfiber towel and diffuse on medium heat & finish diffusing on the cool setting. When my hair is completely dry I scrunch out the crunch with a hair oil. Sometimes I will finish with a curl and shine hairspray.
