Product Spotlight: Moroccan Argan Oil
I often get asked what I use in my hair and/or asked advice on the do's and don'ts of what to use on your hair extensions. My advice is pretty standard no matter the texture, length, curl patterns etc. Generally I advise to stay away from oils, because of their tendency to weigh down the hair. But there are always exceptions to the rules. I was in Sally's one day buying Caruso Steam Rollers (another post for another day) and on the phone simultaneously with my friend, who was so excited about me being in Sally's and about this product she recently purchased that she wanted me to try....Moroccan Argan oil. Well I had recently read really good things about Moroccan oil on a few natural hair blogs and wanted to try it but hadn't ordered it yet, so it wasn't really a hard sell. Anywho I buy the oil, take it home and try it out.....um yeah....IN LOVE. Let me tell you, the oil feels a little thick when you put it in your hands, but when you rub your hands together it's really thins out and feels a little silky. When you put it on your hair, your hair immediately absorbs it. There is no oily residue, no greasy look, no stringy oily mess....good stuff right. Reading the back of the bottle that is exactly what it promises, it creates a natural looking sheen on your hair. Its so light that you can put a little on daily if you so desired. The best thing it is all natural, derived from Mother Nature herself, the oil is from the Argan Tree native to Morocco. The price isn't too bad....right around $10 but you get a good size bottle and a few drops go a long way. It also works really well on skin and has a mild, sweet, nutty smell. And I almost forgot to mention how soft my natural hair and my hair extensions are after using it....Loves it! Try it out let me know what you think.

Color me Beautiful!
I posted a few months ago about getting a closure and color...well I never installed a closure but I did take the plunge into a little color. I wanted to go as light as I could without changing my base color and without looking like a skunk with dark hair and blond highlights. So I went to visit my stylist and she hooked me up with a fabulous new install of Virgin Indian Rem Kinky Deep Curly It took me a day or so to really feel it, but now I think I am in love.
What's funny is, I had a similar color yearsssss ago but this time I like it a lot more, the highlights are thinner and aren't as orange as my previous highlights. Anywho while I was getting my hair highlighted I was all up in the products she was using so I could dish to those home hair scientists that may want to try to highlight their own hair. NOTE: Try at your OWN RISK!!!....I am not a stylist and do not advise you to do so but hey if you are a do-it-yourself type of girl.....here is what I spied.
My stylist used ION Color Brilliance powder lightener and ION Sensitive Scalp 20 volume developer which you can get at Sally's Beauty Supply. I don't know the ratio but she pretty much mixed it in the bowl, applied to sections of hair with a color brush, foiled and sat me under the dryer for a few minutes. AGAIN...NOTE...these are not exact directions so you may need to investigate a little further before trying at home.
