BBH has two styles and three beautiful colors to choose from.  

My daughter is a 3T now but the 4T shirt fitted nicely on her. 

The shirt was delivered in a nice little package.; it was not wrinkled at all when I received it.  BUT what I really liked the most was the handwritten note from Chloe, it added a nice personal touch and it felt like it was "a friend sending another friend a present".  It really can't get any better than that. 
My daughter liked the fact that the picture on the shirt looked like her when she wears her curls free… "look mami Big Hair just like me".   
Now I have the feeling I have to get one in blue because my son is now wondering where is his BBH shirt?!

BBH offers many other tips and ideas.   You have to check her website out!  BABY BIG HAIR NOW!

TO GET MS. BREE'S TWIST OUT LOOK:


  
I co-washed her hair with conditioner only, this time I used (my old and beloved) Herbal Essence "Hello Hydration".

After lightly rinsing her hair I applied my other beloved product, Bee Mine Lusious Moisturizer with a few drops of Argan Oil and sectioned her hair into four sections.  Then I banded each section.

The next day I sprayed a little bit of water, applied Bee Mine Curly Butter and did 16 twists.

I came across this amazing technique and I decided to give it a try.   

Make sure you check out "KandyLandKurls" and her post "How to Elongate your Twist Outs".  It worked perfectly for us!!

A Huge Hair Day!

This past weekend we celebrated my first curly top- "6th Birthday"... My little man surely is growing up! 

Lately my husband has asked me to let Ms. Bree's curls out and free!  I know my daughter is a very busy little one and she truly hates her hair touching her face.  When I asked Ms. Bree how did she wanted to wear her hair to the birthday gathering....she replied.. "LONG AND DOWN".

So here it is... "LONG AND DOWN STYLE"



HOW TO GET THIS LOOK:






1. I washed Ms. Bree's Hair with Shea Moisture Raw Shea Butter Shampoo;

2.  After I have applied the Shea Moisture Raw Shea Butter Conditioner, I detangled her hair by using a wide tooth comb.

3. Then I rinsed out the conditioner.

4.  While her hair was still wet I applied Bee Mine Luscious Balanced Cream Moisturizer (Coconut Cream Scent-uhmmmm) and Bee Mine Curly Butter (also Coconut Cream Scent! Who me, a coconut fan??...)    As I said on my Product Review...the only mistake I made with these products is that I DIDN'T BUY THE BIG JAR! 

5.  I used my fingers to make sure the products were distributed evenly on her hair (using the raking technique).  Ms. Bree has a combination of curls, (some curls are more defined than others), on those curls that need extra help in order to dry nicely, I curled them using my fingers ("finger coils").  

6.  I left the towel on her shoulders so her outfit wouldn't get wet.  It took approximately 4 hours to air dry and these were the results:







AFTER 3 HOURS OF PLAYING:

(How we love the southern humidity! NOT!!! Ms. Bree's Hair is like mommy's hair and humidity is our worst enemy and our curls get frizzy quickly.  The difference with using the Bee Mine Products is that her curls were still looking amazing!!! The hair never got "crunchy" or "greasy".  




After the celebration was over, I carefully sectioned her hair (using only my fingers); sprayed a little bit of water and applied just a dab of Bee Mine Luscious moisturizer before I braided the section into a lose braid. 

At the end we had about five lose braids. 

Put her satin cap on, gave her a quick bath then Ms. Bree went to bed.

YES.. ALL NATURAL CURLZ!!

WOW can you believe a little girl can have this much hair!?

I meant to post this yesterday but since it was my birthday, the day got crazy pretty quickly.    Ms. Bree is finally rocking her natural curls!!.  

I'm so happy I was able to accomplished this!!  It was very simple and it didn't take two hours of styling.  I accomplished this look by using:

1st: Kinky Curly Knot Today to detangle the hair and 
2nd: Kinky Curly Custard to style it.  I made sure the product was evenly distributed it by using my fingers.  

I wish I could have let her entire hair loose, but she didn't feel like having lose hair around her face so as you can on the pictures below, I divided a small section from ear to ear and did a lose braid.



This is the first time I let Ms. Bree go to school with her hair loose so I was a little bit scared of how she was going to look like at the end of the day. 

But I'm happy to say that after an entire day at school plus playground, her hair looked beautiful! So we decided to try for Day #2.!

Before Ms. Bree wen to bed, I carefully grabbed medium size sections and loosely braided the hair (at the end we had about six medium size braids).  Then the satin sleeping cap went on.

DAY 2:

This morning, I carefully removed the braids, lightly sprayed the hair with some water and applied more Kinky Curly Curling Custard to the sections that started to look a little bit frizzy.

AND THIS IS WHAT SHE LOOKS LIKE TODAY!!



Let's see how she will look this evening! So far her hair is not greasy, crunchy or tangled.

Bands out & Big Hair In!

This is going to be a very short post.  I decided to do something simple and not do a style that required for her hair to be in braids or twists for several days.  My husband likes to call this "the girl with the four puffs". 

BANDING THE HAIR:




  • After washing Ms. Bree's hair with Curly Q's Curlie Cutie Cleansing Creme;
  • I detangled her hair with Herbal Essence None of Your Frizzness then I lightly rinsed it out (to see a more detailed description of our detangling process, please visit our "Washing/Detangling Routine" tab;
  • I applied Bee Mine Luscious Moisturizer all over her hair;  
  • I made sure that the hair was free of any knots and tangles.  
  • Once the hair was detangled, I divided her hair into eight sections, then banded each section by using cloth covered bands.
  • I let Ms. Bree go to bed with her hair banded.    


BANDING IS A FUN STYLE TOO! 



    

As all of you can see, Ms. Bree loves to play with her hair and banding allows her to do just that.   

She went to school with her hair banded and the hair still looked nice at the end of her school day. 
(If I do her hair during the week, I always make sure I coordinate the color of her bands with the outfit she is to wear the following day.) I know, don't judge me, I'm weird! 

THE RESULTS!




I finally took the bands out on Saturday before we went out, and put her hair in 4 big pony tails.  I applied a little bit more of Bee Mine Luscious Moisturizer to each section and added a white flower on each end (optional).  


All ready to have fun!

LET IT LOOSE!




LOVE FREE HAIR!!!

This week was definitely busy but it was also very fun.  

Grandparents were visiting and while the boys took a deep see fishing trip, the girls got all dressed up and decided to take a stroll through the downtown area.  Since the kids started school Monday, it was our last opportunity to do fun things with the grandparents.  VACATION is definitely over!

Ms. Bree loves her hair loose and free so i decided to do just that.  The weather was wonderful so I thought, Why not?  

We accomplished this look by using Kinky Curly Curling Custard while her hair was wet and by braiding it.  (To get this look please see my Step by Step instructions Tab.  It is very easy to do!!

We got a lot of compliment and she looked beautiful rocking her curls!
