WOC: The Hair Thread

[DILLIGAF]

For those that are curious about Bee Mine Products I use the Bee Mine Curly Butter for styling. I find it gives a good but not hard hold when doing twists and braidouts. I am a protective styler not because I believe it holds some magical secret to hair growth and retention but because I'm lazy. I will find the time to do my makeup but spending long amounts of time on doing my hair is a no go for me. I also use the Bee Mine Luscious Balanced Cream Moisturizer. If my hair is ever feeling dry this brings is right back without being greasy. I just wish I was able to get Bee Mine on the ground. My sister is lucky to live in Atlanta so she can get it at Sage Naturalceuticals. I'm not a fan of wash and go's because of tangles and the fact that one side of my hair is clearly a wave pattern rather than a curl.

My dear Hubster has already taken over my modified Denman for his bone straight hair, he now has decided that his overgrown goatee needs to be brushed with my Tangle Teezer -_-

Guess I have to buy another TT as well.

What oils are you using? something that will get water on your scalp/ hair then seal with an oil. They say that coconut oil is close to your naturally produced sebum. See if that makes a difference. Just remember all oils are not created equal!

 

[MissTT]

So you're saying she should may spritz her scalp with water first and then use the coconut oil? I need to keep working on my scalp, too, but it's much better due to sagehen's advice.

Btw ladies in this thread make sure to let me know if you'd like a Sephora Friends & Family code b/c the list is probably gonna be shut down soon.

Yes - the idea of oil is to seal in the moisture that you put there. I also want to suggest jojoba oil if you can find some.

I perfer jojoba over coconut only because I don't like smelling like suntan lotion lol

 

[MissTT]

I need to get some jojoba myself. I need to get some more neem, too.

Never used neem. I've seen it at Whole Foods and I've heard great things about it.

 

[MissTT]

Works well for my itchy seborrheic dermatitis, but it's stinky.

I have dermatitis as well what's Neem? And I need to get some jojoba too!

 

[MissTT]

Neem oil can relieve dry and itchy scalp, dandruff, and the symptoms of scalp psoriasis.
