I tried Blue Magic Cholesterol in My Henna Gloss Last Night!
And it was fire. That’s all. That’s the post. I mixed organic henna with cooled, super-strong black tea (two bags in 8oz of water), but only poured in some… you add small amounts until you get the cake batter consistency you want. I then whipped in the orange magic lol and applied to my hair immediately without gloves.
It felt wrong, like illegal, to apply henna with no gloves, but I trusted that the color hadn’t had the chance to release. I only left it on for 2 hours with a microwave heat cap (I had it on for about 20 minutes only), and then promptly rinsed and styled using The Doux Foam for the first time. I was really excited about it after seeing it everywhere and it being everyone’s favorite and I can see why.
On my wet hair, it kept my strands smooth and detangled, defined like crazy, and it smelled great (tho I’ve come to feel guilty whenever using anything with fragrance these days– knowledge ugh), but this morning my twists were hard, like gel hard. Like me trying to help my son, who is only in the 4th grade, with his math homework- hard.
But I stretched it a bit with my FHI blow dryer (tension style- just hold random patches of curls and blast for short durations to achieve a bit more length), and we worked it out! I really loved the slip of the Blue Magic Cholesterol (just don’t look at the ingredients- think of it like a bag of chips lol).
I forgot how much I loved cholesterol treatments back in the day, like Queen Helene. I tried one from Hollywood Beauty a week or so ago that I didn’t even tell you about. Nope. At any rate, I must go record. I’ve spent the day in prayer- went to church this morning, rested a teeny bit, and now… showtime 🙂 I love you!

p.s. OH! But the henna gloss tho! It was smooth textured (not lumpy which some conditioners encourage), went on easy and rinsed easily in the shower. And the best part- it stained my hair tremendously for such a short time and really conditioned my hair. The fragrance was delightful, smelled like teen spirit lol but it again, fragrance is the devil now. I love y’all!
