Glycerin Mix Update!

OK. I used it on my hair and my daughters hair today and our hair is still moisturized even after I wore my stocking cap and wig. I am so loving this mix! My daughter's hair is so soft! Her hair always soaks up whatever I put in it. I only added about three tablespoons of the WN lotion in it. I keep her hair in braids and ponytails. I could not believe how soft and moisturized her hair was tonight before wrapping her hair up for bed. I have found a new moisturizer and guess what! I made it!!! Tell me about a mixture you made that works wonders for you....Until next time....

The Summer Heat and Its Downfalls!!!

When the temp gets in the upper 90's even hitting 100 is terrible. My hair has suffered from it tremendously. My hair gets incredibly dry and I get very lazy and the two don't mix. When I become lazy I neglect my hair. So I don't moisturize like I should. Even though I wear wigs they can cause you to sweat ALOT. The stocking cap does not help at all but I have to use it due to the combs snagging my hair without it.

Well I just made a mixture Im going to use on my hair until relaxer day. It consists of Glycerin, water, and Wave Nouveau Finishing lotion. I was going to add some peppermint oil, and Rosemary oil to it but the smell of peppermint was to over powering with only 5 drops so I decided not to add it this time. I just used it on my braids and my daughters hair and I can say dry no more! I did add a lil bit to much to my hair cause it started running down my forehead...lol. Now I know just a few squirts is all I need. It feels ok but Im going to see how long it will stay moist before applying it again. If your interested in the measurement of each product let me know. Until next time....
