Hair Grease
I don't know if you have ever been recommended to use grease on your kids hair. I have been raised to always grease my scalp to prevent my hair from being dry. After doing research for a few months, I have found that hair grease is not good for thick curly hair. Most hair grease contains petroleum and mineral oil that coats the hair, which blocks your pores. The moisture already in your hair will stay awhile, but when you apply other moisturizers it cant get in. So we have ditched our hair grease, and started using Natural Oils like Olive and Coconut Oil. Honestly, after using natural oils I don't miss it the classic hair grease. I like being able to run my fingers through hair, without tons of icky sticky grease all on my hands. It feels so much better especially since I know it's much healthier. If you are unsure if your hair grease is unhealthy or not, check the first few ingredients the one's listed first contains the higher amount of that ingredient. If it says PETROLEUM or MINERAL OIL stay clear from it.
Sock Bun
This is one of my favorite hairstyles, I think it looks so elegant and the funny thing is, you need a sock to get this style.
Instructions:
1.) Start with moisturized, detangled hair.
2.) Lightly brush all of the hair into a simple ponytail, and use a hair tie to hold the ponytail.
3.) Buy a sock that is similar to your hair color, so we used a dark brown sock.
4.) Cut a hole at the sole of the sock.
6.) Put the sock through the hair, that is in the ponytail.
7.) Now, smooth the hair evenly around the sock so that the sock is no longer visible.
8.) Use hair colored hair ties to wrap around the sock to form a bun.
9.) Repeat step # 8 as many times as it takes to secure the bun.
10.) The hair that is out of the bun you could either tuck it in, or twist it around the bun, and secure it with either a hair tie or bobby pin. We chose to twist the hair and secure with another hair tie.
11.) Add a cute flower or accessorize.
Time: Approx 10-15 minutes
Products Used:
-Bee Loved Hair & Scalp Moisturizer
-Bee Mine Curly Butter
- Wide Tooth Comb
Happy Valentines Day!
N had a Valentines Dance at school, so I did a Braided Ponytail with some cute pink and white accessories and pink beads from the Curly Princess Hair Boutique.
Start with moisturized hair.
1.) I started braiding in the the back of her hair, by making a part and braid going up, towards the center of her hair.
2.) I continued braiding going all around her hair.
3.) I secure all of the braids into a ponytail holder.
4.) I added Tri-colored pink beads to the ends of her hair.

Braid Out With No Products
I have decided to do a braid out without using products.
I think it came out pretty nice, just a little poofy.
The night before, I had put 4 braids in her hair, two on top and two on the bottom.
In the morning, I unraveled the braid and placed the top half of the hair into a pony tail, and I left the bottom out.
