Juicing for beautiful hair....

I've been keeping this a secret but I can't hold it in any longer! Juicing is my new favorite pastime. Today, I'll share a drink recipe that tastes delicious and is ultra healthy for the hair!

Coppola Keratin Repair Serum-video review

Yes, it's that time again! Time for a video update. This go around I'm coming at you with a rave about my new favorite product in the whole world. I used my Coppola Keratin Repair serum for the first time last night and, let me tell you, life is good. This stuff does exactly what it says and (best of all) there's not even a hint of stiff hair burdened with protein overload. I didn't use high heat to set the Keratin serum in but I still feel like my hair benefited.

Remember, the main three qualities of healthy is strength, moisture, and elasticity. It appears as if this product is able to feed the hair with at least 2 of the 3 qualities. I talk more about the product in this video.....

roll em!

Detangling Combs Rock!

Yes, it's that time again. I've posted another video update on Youtube that I wanted to share with you all. Today I'm all excited about my detangling combs. Tangles have been my achilles heel for a while now and today I feel like I've been set free from the bondage of those nasty tangles. I talk about two different types to detangling combs, each effective in their own way. I am really confident about the possibility of extending my stretches with the help of these babies!

Any ways enough talking, check out the vid:





I also thought I'd post another vid of a fellow hair journey traveler who also reviewed the Conair comb. Notice how easy the comb glides through his freshly washed natural hair.



For those of you were are as intrigued about the Ouidad comb as I was, here's some more info:




The Ouidad comb is available at Sephora or at Amazon.com

Steam Deep Conditioning Video

I didn't expect it but I got quite a few comments from my steam pre-poo video. In that video, I parted the hair section by section while in front of my facial steamer. A couple people mentioned that it looked rather labor intensive. While I do agree that doing it section by section does take a lot of time and effort, it also has it's benefits.

Well now it's time to reveal how I used the same facial steamer, along with my hooded dryer, and converted it into a replica of an honest to goodness hair steamer.

You guys might remember another post from the good 'ole days when I tried, desperately to create my own version of a steamer with my caruso kit and a plastic bin. Well those days are no longer because I've now graduated from this to this:

Steam Pre-Poo Treatment Healthy Hair Video

Recently, I posted about my new and improved wash day experience ever since this facial steamer came into my life. I figured that mere text wasn't enough to detail the intricacies of readapting a facial steamer for hair benefits.

So I made a video......

Watch and enjoy!

Sharing my Hair Regimen!

I've published yet another video. This one focuses on my basic hair care routine. For me, the biggest area of focus is my wash and set. This step lays down the foundation for which I am able to further build upon. There will be more regimen-type videos to come. For now, check this one out and feel free to ask any specific questions..

Braidout Tutorial!

I've posted my latest video tutorial on Youtube. This episode is all about the braid out. I share my technique to working to manage the new growth prior to the actual braiding process. Braidouts are a lifesaver at the end of your stretch. It's one of those styles that works with your new growth, not against it. I know there are a million braidout tutorials out there already but I thought I'd share anyways.

Enjoy.

Heatless Hairstyles Episode 1: The "loose flowy waves"

Time for another relaxedhairhealth video!

In this episode, I attempt to recreate the lovely soft wavy curls that I often see emulated in other youtube vids. But instead of using the all-to-common curling iron, I recreated using my steam curlers.

I attempted this heatless hairstyle as an alternative to resorting to the evil curling iron. I wanted to prove to everyone that yes we can create fabulous styles without compromising our desire to remain (direct)heatless.

So here it is, hope you love it!

A simpler way to rollerset

Today I'm presenting the third installment of my youtube video series. Rollersetting can sometimes be difficult to perfect. You have to worry about perfect parts and flawlessly smooth hair in order to get the look you want.

If you are struggling with trying to perfect your rollerset, try this underhand method and see if you like the results.

Minimizing damage from a Dominican Salon blow out

Update time!
I wanted to follow up on the technique I described in my last post about how to wash the hair without producing a bunch of tangles in the process. A few days back, I decided to visit the Dominican Salon for a blow out. I actually despise getting a blow out because of the massive amount of tangles I would incur from the wash. Top that off with a busy stylist, a small tooth comb, and voila! (tons of damage).

This time I chose to be proactive. I washed, detangled, and conditioned my hair at home. When I got to the salon all I needed was a rinse and rollerset. Even though I got plenty of stares, walking in with wet hair, it was all worth it.
I think this was one of my best Dominican Salon experiences ever.

Let me tell you more about it via video.
