Even though I don’t necessarily care for their products, Miss Jessie’s website has pretty neat hair styling tutorials. They include coil outs, twist outs and shingling. The tutorials are pdf files with pictures included. Of course they recommend their products, but you can substitue whatever fits your needs (and budget).If you are thinking of trying Miss Jessie’s, it’d probably be a good guide on how to use whatever you order.
Another thing to watch out for is the suggestion of heat for some of the styles. Not a whole lot of heat, but there are a few times I see it recommended. Big props to Miss Jessie’s for having this available for free!

just tried the curly pudding from miss jessie’s for the 1st time, i was very disappointed. it lefted my hair very hard and dry. i will be sticking to my homemade products from nw on. i do like the tutorials.
I agree with you K, her tutorials can be very helpful. I don’t know about the products either. I only tried the Curly Pudding once and my hair was left wet ALL day, not to mention the ingredients. That was a while ago, so I don’t know if they reformulated her products since.
When one uses the Curly Pudding, they should go under the dryer as shown by the YouTube video they made.
However, I purchased the Curly Buttercreme, Love It! I have nappy 4B hair and nothing except the in-expensive Tiwsts N Loc’s Honey Wax which is made with 100 percent honey way and aloe vera, which gavme some hold but a lot of moisture due to the honey. But the Curly Buttercreme gives both hold and moisture. Next I will do the Curly Pudding and apply it as they say and go under the dryer. If you have 4B hair, it is definitely worth a try, get the sample jar. And if you are 4B get the Twists and Locs Honey Wax it also contains Lanolin and Rosemary made by Nature’s Image. A lot of products do now work for 4B. On my experience, these two products work — Twists N Locs and Miss Jessie’s Curly Buttercreme.
