Today I will be sharing my friend Emily's very simple routine using two amazing products. While I have not tried these products on Ms. Bree's hair or mine, Emily sure is a fan of these products and is definitely enjoying her curly hair thanks to the results she is able to accomplish.
THE PRODUCTS:
1. Oyin Handmade Hair Dew- Daily Hair Quenching Lotion; and
2. Nuance Salma Hayek, Blue Agave Curl Cream.
From Emily...
Hello friends: I have a very simple routine for my wavy/curly hair but since adding/switching the two products pictured above. I am having so many more GREAT CURLY HAIR days, therefore, I thought I would share this with all of you.
I usually wash and condition my hair with whatever is in the shower at the time (I know, I know...).
Lately, it has been Clear Intense Hydration. After drying my hair off with a cotton T-Shirt, I use a tiny bit of Oyin Handmade Hair Dew Daily Hair Lotion, as my leave in - this stuff is so great I don't even have to crunch my hair. My curl pattern just appears. This thing is a miracle in a bottle once you find the amount that works for you. For my curl type, too much of it will weigh my hair down A LOT. Another plus, it smells delicious!
Their claim: "this creamy, conditioning leave-in is light enough
for every day. it's great on 'naked' hair immediately after a cleanse,
or as a way to reinvigorate tired hair all the way through your hair
care cycle. for seriously protective hair experience, try using hair dew
on moist hair (or over a quick spritz of one of our Juices herbal leave-
ins) and then seal ends with one of the Sugar Pomades before gently
manipulating hair into a protective style like braids, twists, or an updo.
days of moisture, sheen, and hair happiness!"
As my styler, I use this cream from the Nuance brand (Salma Hayek at CVS). I apply about a nickel size amount to my curls while my head is up-side-down crunching up my curls and that's it.
It gives me a soft - not crunchy hold (you know what I mean!). If I want a little extra volume I do use a diffuser on low heat; however, the picture below is just air dried hair (about 60% dry). Anyway, I highly recommend these products because lets face it we could all use more great hair days!
