Many of you have asked what my hair looked like when it was shorter… what it looked like before henna. Your wish is my command: The pics range from 11/2007-10/2006 (from top to bottom- the most recent ones are first). My hair in 2006 was just below shoulder length. This is 11/2007 after several henna treatments- I used SheaMoisture to…
Although most mornings I wake up to a frizzless, still curly, 2 or 3 day old twist-n-curl, other mornings, I’m not so lucky. So, what do I do when I can’t salvage the style, but have somewhere to go?Turn it into a Twist-n-Curl Puff!!! Several CurlyNikki readers have asked how I create this puff, so here ya go 😀 What…
The life of a PJ…I’ve tried 4 products on this line. Overall, I’d probably give it a 6 out of 10. It’s very easy to get on the ground at Whole Foods, or Vitamin Shoppe, and if you’re in Atlanta, Urbanbella. Please find general info and my review of each product below: Nourish and Shine I’m a HUGE fan of…
Aubrey did it again!!! I purchase from Whole Foods or Vitamin Shoppe for $8.39. It’s usually cheaper at Vitamin Shoppe. The consistency is not as thick as Aubrey Organics Honey Suckle Rose (AO HSR), which makes it easier and more fun to use. For the most part, it is a mainstay of my deep conditioning routine. I usually mix it…

I’m loving my Micro Heat Cap!!!!! It has totally replaced the need for my noisy Ion Hooded Dryer (which was only used for DT’s). I don’t know about you, but my hair needs a little heat in order to allow the conditioner to penetrate the shaft. It comes with 3 gel packs that you must slide into the cloth pockets…

If you’re looking for an outstanding deep treatment ladies…this is the one!!! I purchase from Whole Foods or Vitamin Shoppe for 8-10 dollars. It’s usually cheaper at Vitamin Shoppe. The consistency is VERY thick, so thick, that it’s a nuisance trying to get it out of the bottle. Although it lacks slip (my favorite thing in the world), the moisture…
-How long have you been natural?I have always wanted curly hair, my entire life. But it was on October 26, 2006, when I got the last of my texlax cut off, that I became truly natural. This was the last of 3 “little chops” done over 14 months. Before that I had been fully natural since age 15 (with a…
-How long have you been natural?I did my last “BC” in August of ’03. So, I’m just over 5 years natural. Not counting the 14 years I was natural before relaxing as a 9th grader. -What is your regimen?I try to keep things simple, although I get the itch to experiment now and again. I co-wash 3 times a week….
