Product Review | got 2b Oil-licious

A few weeks ago Walgreens had a deal which involved you getting a coupon for the amount you spent on several products. One of those products that I purchased was got 2b Oil-licious Triple Oil Golden Shimmer Conditioner by Schwarkopf. I was excited about the idea that I may see some shimmer in my hair and that it was triple oil. It also claims to repair, strengthen, provide anti-frizz benefits, and glisten.
My basic read on this product is that I am glad it was free.

Pro: I love the smell (its creamy and sweet)
        Water is the first ingredient
         I love the way it leaves my hair smelling great
         I have noticed more shine in my hair

Cons: It contains alcohol
          The three oils it brags about are near the bottom of the ingredient list
           It is artificially fragranced
           It provides no slip (I finally found out what that is and this doesn't have it)
           My hair feels no more moisturized after it is applied
           I didn't notice the shimmer at all

I will finish the bottle but I will not purchase more in the future. I am glad that I was able to try this out as I had seen it from time to time and wondered. I do really enjoy the fragrance as my shampoo is naturally fragranced and it doesn't last very long. I think this conditioner is meant for someone that is looking for a light moisturizing conditioner as it mentions being non-greasy, I need EXTRA moisture. I don't mind grease :)

I purchased this product with my own money and receive no compensation for my view on the product. All views are expressly my own.

Waterfall ponytail (with a twist) tutorial

I had a date a few weeks ago the best part of the date was my first visit to P.F. Changs and this hairstyle. I did the typical thing: played in my twist out too long and waited until the last minute to try to do something with it. This style was relatively simple and I'm proud of myself for creating an original style. It's simply a ponytail with a twist in the front and hair added from the back. My hair is too thick to pull it all back without too much strain on the edges and all of the hair disappearing in a fight to escape the ponytail holder.
The things I used to create the style were: ponytail holder, Bobbie pins, hair clips, Shea Moisture Curl enhancing smoothie, Giovanni direct leave in, oil mixture, water, gel, and a scarf.  I don't know how my date felt about my hair but he asked for another date so it must not have been too bad. ;)


Check out the video below for instructions.

 

And see the pictures of the style as well.

Hair of the week

#hotw

If you're natural and like me you do your hair each week thinking if your weekend plans. This weekend I'm going to a performance for the International Association of Blacks in Dance with my bestie. So I want something cute and versatile. I live my twist outs but the main problem with my twist outs for me is the front.  As my hair gets longer it doesn't seem to lay the way I want and easily frizzes due to me touching it more to get it to behave. 

I decided to attempt a middle part though it's really not my thing. I wanted my hair to frame my face and stay out if my eyes. So here's the style if the day.
