UK Ladies - Shea Moisture @ British Curlies

Source - Here

I have been eyeing up this brand for some time now, but never got the chance to try any products because I could never find anywhere to buy them.
Well British Curlies is now a stockist of shea moisture yay!
 The deep treatment masque sounds pretty good, I'm tempted to get spending but I know I shouldn't.

I would love to hear if any of you ladies have tried any products from the shea moisture range and your experiences with them. 

Finally Got My Relaxer, Results After 6months

I have been wanting to do this post for this long!
My laptop was in for repair so I wasn't able to do any blogging, but without further or do...
This post is my official relaxer update, my last relaxer was on the 29th June over 6 months ago, the transformation of my hair is amazing (for me anyway), my hair just looks so much better.
Check out the pics...

For this relaxer it was a little different, I went to a new stylist and they advised me on changing from the mizani butter blends to affirm fibreguard, my experience with mizani was good, I never experienced no burns, It gave my hair some straightness but I also had a lot of texture, and you know that phrase 'If it eint broke, then don't fix it?' hmm ye, I was a little reluctant to change relaxer because there was nothing wrong with the mizani butter blends, but I thought to myself, she's a stylist she must know what she's talking about right?

I told the stylist I still want some texture to my hair after it's been relaxed, so I won't know how straight the relaxer got my hair until my next wash on Sunday, which I'm pretty nervous about lol. But so far so good, I do not have anything negative to say about the relaxer, I experienced no burns, my hair feels pretty soft and moist which is good.

Im feeling pretty confident about my hair journey in 2012, even though I still haven't got my staple products, I'm still able to grow and retain my length, I'm positive that my breakage problem will be eliminated soon, so my goal for 2012 is to really maintain and improve the health of my hair, and enjoy the lengths that come with it.

I'm not sure whether I will be stretching for this long again, I was even considering relaxing my hair myself for my next relaxer, but because of the cost of mizani butter blends or the affirm fibureguard, going to the hair dressers might be a more affordable option for my small budget, unless I change relaxer again.

Happy New Year

Happy New Year !
I'm so excited to be entering this new year with so much more knowledge and information

about my hair and haircare in general.

I cannot tell you how grateful I am to be a reader of so many amazing blogs, you have all taught me something valuable which will/has contributed to my hair journey.

When I created this blog was really when I properly started my hair journey, and I was actually serious about wanting to care for my hair. Since then my wants for my hair have completely changed, my priority is know longer getting my hair to certain lengths (don't get me wrong, I love the fact that my hair is getting longer) but, this year for me is going to be focused on getting my hair really healthy and eliminating my breakage and my horrible ends situation. 

I am happy to share that my breakage problem has gotten a lot better, I remember times last year dreading to detangle my hair because of the amount of hair I know I was going to lose, but now although I still hate detangling, I'm learning different methods to keep breakage at a minimal.

That's it from me,

I hope you all had a lovely Christmas and a happy new year
take care
