Growing Long Hair the Healthy Way
I was sent the Amla Legend Billion Hair Potion to review by Soft Sheen Carson. It promises fuller, thicker hair growth but a true review would take weeks, if not months, of consistent use before I would feel comfortable commenting on those promises. However, what I decided to do is discuss the ingredients found within the product.

I watched a recent video from one of my favorite You Tube hair vloggers, Sista with Real Hair on grapeseed oil for hair, its benefits and how different "cheap" grapeseed oil is from gourmet oil.

My last relaxer was on 11-25-11. Before that touch-up, I had told you that I was planning to self-relax in this post, but decided to visit my "home stylist" when I went to NJ for Thanksgiving.

So, my new hair regimen (at least until further notice) is as follows:Detangle and … [Read more...]
I didn't post about a wash day last week...did ya notice? I don't always give the deets of every single wash but...last week I didn't because I didn't wash. *gasp* Even after the spraying of hairspray for the bow bun style, I didn't wash!

My hair felt moisturized most of the week but by … [Read more...]
Thank you all for being followers! As you know, I have been loving the incorporation of ceramides into my hair regimen. Whether it is an ingredient in a product or if I add my beloved hemp seed oil to a product or directly to my hair, I definitely think my hair has been reaping the benefits. If you are new to L4L and curious about what ceramides are, check out my previous post on it here. Anyway, I realize the oils that contain ceramides … [Read more...]
Hello Ladies! Many of us have heard of the infamous "Kimmaytube Leave In Recipe" popularized by Kim Love, of YouTube. She is a natural haired beauty vlogger.

She has been natural for many years but never retained much length until she began to study and understand the … [Read more...]
