My best puff ever- Natural Hair

So for a year and a half I have tried to avoid the use of gel when doing my puff. I wonder why now. Last night I co-washed my hair, detangled with leave in conditioner and coconut oil and then added Eco styler gel and brushed my hair back. I secured my hair with a double ouchless head band. Then I applied my scarf to help keep my hair in shape, I then removed the head band (it is not stretched out enough to use in that fashion) I used a simple ribbon to tie my hair in the shape it was in with the doubled head band. When I go up this morning I removed the scarf, took out the ribbon and then reapplied the head band. I don't know why I haven't done this before it was so easy and the best it has looked. I am looking forward to more lazy days :) Pictures below.


Products used: Organix Moroccan Argon Oil conditioner; Shea Moisture- Restorative conditioner leave in or wash out, I left it in; Coconut oil; Eco Styler Gel.

Product review- Curls Unleashed Curl Defining Creme

The last time I completed twist outs I used a new product- Curls Unleashed's Curl defining Creme. It states that it is great for controlling your curls and to minimize shrinkage. It is also supposed to be good for use when doing shingling, twistouts, coils or freestyle.
I was disappointed my hair felt hard and dry when it completely dried. I also didn't notice any change in the shrinkage amount with my hair. It did however look very good and pretty when it was wet and untwisted. I may try it again for wash an go styles but will have to add something for moisture retention.
I usually use Shea Moisture's Curl enhancing smoothie, and will continue to use it form now on.

Naturally yours,
