| | What's new on Luvbenet2-- I'm a redhead now!'s "Photo Albums" pages Recently created and updated albums: | | - June 2008- Curls return after flat iron! Hurray!!
- So, I washed my hair!!! Needless to say, I was THRILLED to have my curls return, but my hair wasn't so well-received by my co-workers and students!! I can't tell you how many times I heard people tell me that they like it better straight!!
It pisses me off that my hair is such a topic of conversation at my school!! Everyone else is allowed to do what they please, but when I change my hair, everyone feels entitled to comment!!!
So, I was sooo nervous that the flat iron might damage my hair, but thankfully, this wasn't the case!! I did see two straight strands, but that's mimimal! Just the same, I don't plan to do this again anytime soon, unless I get a "doobie". The curling iron and flat iron are now off limits for me!
********************************************************* How I do my hair:
1.Deep condition once a week with Hair Mayonnaise.
2. Clarify every two weeks with Nexxus clarifying shampoo.
3. Co-wash every day or every two or three days with Trader Joe Nourish. I wash my hair in the shower.
4. Detangle with Nourish conditioner using a denman brush.
5. Rinse with cold water.
6. While still in the shower, I add Cantu leave-in and IC aloe vera gel. After applying, I re-wet my hair again with the cold water. This helps eliminate "conditioner clumps" and white specks in my hair.
7. I shake my hair from side to side.
8. I don't touch my hair again with my hands. I continue to shake it from side to side to keep the curls loose.
9. I don't use any expensive products (Miss Jessie's, Kinky-Kurly) because I can get the look I want and lots of moisture with these products. I don't plan to change anytime soon. These products have worked better than ANYTHING else I've tried, and my hair is NEVER dry.

| | | - ASCAP Awards
- My boyfriend is a producer, and last summer he received an ASCAP award . He produced TI's "Why You Wanna". The ceremony was in Los Angeles, and he took me and his Mom out there to see him get his award. It was my first time in Cali, and I had a a ball. I totally see myself living there. I took a ton of pics, and thought I'd share them with you.
