Onyxcabelo: Coconut Oil, Kerala, and Me
http://onyxcabelo.blogspot.com/2013/02/coconut-oil-kerala-and-me.html
Coconut Oil, Kerala, and Me. So, I have mentioned in the past that I actually do like coconut oil for my hair, however, I have a difficult time using oils because of how it makes my hair look. If you're not familiar with the effects of oil on my hair, you can read more about it in my " My Hair Hates Oils. Ok, so if you are not familiar with the women of Kerala - and I wasn't until I started to do a bit more searching around - they are said have some of the most amazing hair. Thick, healthy, and long.

20 drops Peppermint EO. 10 drops Rosemary EO. 10 drops Lavender EO. 2 Tablespoons Frac. Coconut oil. 1 Tablespoon of Hemp Oil. 1 Tablespoon of Castor oil. Apply to scalp after washing and conditioning and enjoy the cooling. If you tend to have an oilier scalp, apply just a few drops of this combination to the palm of your hand - take your finger tips and dab them in the oil, then massage well into scalp. You can also use it after a water rinse by simply:. 3) Apply your preferred conditioner - let it sit.

Onyxcabelo: Honey Part Deux
http://onyxcabelo.blogspot.com/2013/01/honey-part-deux.html
I decided to talk about my experience with honey and touch on a few questions that inevidably come up whenever I mention honey to my friends and family. But isn't honey sticky? Yes, yes it is. But once you add water to it or a water based product, the sticky quality of honey seems to simply "melt" or mix right into the product. It no longer has that sticky, viscous property and tends to blend quite nicely. Don't believe me? But won't it attract bugs? But does honey really attract bugs? In that case, yes,...

It Just Goes to Show That. The only real expert on your hair is you. I know this probably is common sense for some, but for me it has become a new relevation, my new mantra. I have been natural for over a year now, and I honestly thought that I had a real handle on my hair and on hair in general. I've never considered myself an expert by any stretch of the imagination, but I felt pretty confident in recommending products for a person's hair, simply because these products worked so well for me. To be simi...

MIA, But Only for a Short Time:0). Unfortunately, I've been unable to post to my blog the last couple weeks because my mom has been in town. As some of you know, she's been having quite a few medical problems, so she's in town so that I can take care of her for a few weeks. This has left me with very little extra time on my hands. So, thanks for bearing with me, and I will be back shortly. View my complete profile. Question from a Sistah? Tanika Ray's Hair. Revealed? AfroVeda - The NATURAL Choice!

I stumbled across Sunshower's fotki while on NC.com. I spotted her avatar right away, and just knew I had to see more pictures of that gorgeous head of hair. After strolling through her album, I decided to contact her directly and see if she would be willing to share her amazing hair journey with us. She has graciously agreed! 1)When did you decide to go natural? If there is a story behind your decision, please share it. 8221; ©Men on Film.

I can not believe it has been this long between my last post and now:0(. I can only say that life has taken me on a wild journey, left me a bit weathered, but grateful to be able to get back to doing what I enjoy. I will be posting more details about my life adventures in the future, perhaps they will help someone else who is going through the same or perhaps it will help me to get a different perspective from those of you who would to share your thoughts and experiences.

I know that I have previously talked about my hair. Oils, and this still holds true to this day. If I apply pretty much any type of oil to my hair, my hair responds by frizzing to such an extent that my curls are no longer existent.I mean, at all. As my hair gets longer I am finding that I need oil if I want to maintain, what I would call, a barrier or slip between one strand of hair and another. Why would I want to do this? Why do I care? Dry, straw city, ya'll. Ok, so enter my beloved, sweet almond oil.
