Curly Girls

I know it seems like this has turned into a curly hair blog but really, it hasn't.  What I love about blogging is that there are no rules.  It's the truest form of freedom to express oneself without worrying about grammar, punctuation or staying on topic.  So I write about what is interesting, important or aggravating to me at any given time.  It just so happens I am currently obsessed with curly hair at the moment.

There are SOOOO many products out there to choose from.  Slowly but surely I am trying them all, which is a daunting - not to mention expensive - task.  Shea Moisture products remains my favorite product line so far although I STILL haven't tried Mixed Chicks yet but soon.

I've had a few bad experiences with my curly hair.  Consistency is the biggest problem.  Sometimes I get nice chunky curls that sit properly on my head and other times the front right side of my hair won't curl or I somehow must have messed with it too much while it was wet and I get that disturbing "web" of frizz over my beautiful curls.

Then again I am still experimenting so maybe that would account for it.  Either way my hair is being more conditioned by this process than ever before so I'm curious to see if it's in better shape by the time the cool weather comes and I wear it straight more often.  All I can tell you is that you need to be very generous with the product, especially if you have thick hair.    On one of the videos I watched it said you should hear a certain squelchy sound and that's how you know you have enough product in your hair.  It's true.

So stay tuned for more ...
