REVIEW, PHOTOS AND SWATCHES: Shea Moisture Deep Conditioning Masque!

Hello lovelies I am back with another review on a product that I mentioned in my September Favs Post, and this time I going to be reviewing the Shea Moisture Deep Conditioning Masque.

So when I went looking for a new deep conditioner I am not going to lie I already had this brand in mind because I had heard so many good things about it so I really wanted to try it.

So the first thing that struck me about this conditioner was the packaging of course. It comes in a really nice container the only thing that I did not like is that it needs to be bigger so they can put more product in it because I am already out ): On the side they have the ingredients and the story of how Shea moisture got started which I though was really cool (:

Next thing that attracted me to this conditioner was the smell. It is unmistakably raw Shea butter which should be obvious because it is right on the package. I do not smell much if anything else at all besides that so I would say that if you do not like the smell of Shea butter I would not recommend buying this product.

So lets get into how I use this baby (: it's very simple really. First I add some coconut oil to the masque, on the label it says to use olive oil but I like coconut oil better so that's what I use but you can use any oil I believe. Next I separate the front and back parts of my hair and tie the front part up and split the back part into two sections. then I just take the mixture and complete saturate my hair in sections with it (: then once I have done that I take a plastic bag and tie it onto my head and then I wrap my scarf around that to really lock in the heat so that the moisture penetrates my hair shaft. Then after about 2 hours I hop into the shower and rinse my hair. I do not wash the masque out I only rinse and I do not over rinse I would say about 20 seconds for each side of my head then I just dry it and style it as usual.

Now on to my feelings about this product....I love it. I love the way that it makes my hair feel. I love that my hair has a shine to it after wards and I love that I can tell that my hair is moisturized. Also I have noticed that after using this masque I do not have to use as much product in my hair which I like (:

So overall I will most definitely be purchasing the product again and I recommend it to everyone with hair no matter what type (:

Okay guys well that is it for this post!

Be safe and I will see you in my next post (:

P.S. I am doing this post on the bus on my way to iFabbo (: for anyone who is going I shall see you in a few hours!

My Morning Curly Hair Routine For Wet Hair To Get Soft Shiny Curls!

Hello everyone so I am going to tell you guys about my current curly hair routine. It changes pretty much every month but I want to show you guys what I am currently doing to get my hair the way it is.

It is very simple for two reasons. Number one I am lazy and I do not like to do a lot of things right before I go to sleep and that is usually when I style my hair for the next day. And number two I do not like to use a lot of product in my hair because it is so thin and it will weigh it down.

So enough of my rambling lets get on to the tutorial!

So what I believe is the most important part of my curly hair routine is my deep conditioning treatment. I use an all natural conditioning treatment for my hair click here if you would like to see it! I do this routine twice a week because I absolutely need to keep my hair moisturized because if I do not my hair will look like big frizzy mess. So I make sure that I do this treatment twice a week and this is also important because the only days I wash my hair during the week are before I am about to deep condition.

So after I do my deep conditioning treatment I hop out of the shower and detangle my hair using my paddle brush. Then I towel dry it so that it is not soaking wet but it is still pretty damp. Then I take my spray bottle and I fill it halfway with water then I take some coconut oil and some of my leave in conditioner,

Right now I am using the Garnier Fructis Sleek and Shine Intensely Smooth Leave-In Conditioning Creme,

And I re wet my hair with this mixture. After I have re wet my hair I comb the mixture through my hair and make sure that every single strand has been moisturized. Then after that I take some of my Coconut Milk Nourishing Anti-Breakage Serum, click here to see my review, and I simply scrunch my hair all the way up to roots continuously until my hair is nice and curly.

Once my hair dries I have soft, bouncy shiny curls.

And that is really it for my morning curly hair routine, I also do this routine when I was too lazy to style my hair the night before. So it really has a dual purpose (:

Well I hope that you guys found this helpful or at the very least interesting (:

Be safe and I'll see you in my next post.
