Fantasia IC and I go wayyyy back, lol. I started using it in 2006 after finding Naturallycurly.com. Primarily, I used it for wash-n-go’s…I didn’t wear puffs or twist-outs very much back then. After about a year of globbing it on, my already dry ends took a turn for the worse! For the life of me, I couldn’t figure out why…this…
-How long have you been natural?I’ve been natural 13 months now. My last relaxer was almost 2 years ago and I haven’t looked back since! -What is your regimen?I co-wash every day with Suave conditioner. Once a week I deep condition with Diez en Uno, my favorite Dominican product. I then brush with my Denman and seal with castor oil….
-How long have you been natural?6 years -What is your regimen?My hair routine is quite simple. I never apply heat, I use natural products, and manipulate my hair as little as possible. My fingers are my primary styling tools and I experience very little breakage. After getting suggestions from fellow hair twins, I finally found products that work with my…

In my PJ glory days, I loved trying out new curl creams, moisturizers and stylers. I gravitated toward these two when I was attempting to wean myself off of drying gels (yes, even the ones that don’t contain cones and alcohol can be drying). I thought, how perfect , something that will hold my hair, but moisturize it too! What…
-How long have you been natural? I’ve been 100% natural for about 5 months now. I BC’d in May 2008 after a year long transition.-What is your regimen? It varies. There are two ways that I wear my hair the majority of the time. First, is twists/twistouts. When I’m wearing my hair like this, I wash with Suave Tropical Coconut…
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…
