Thanksgiving Hair

We had a good Thanksgiving. My hair has been on my mind all week, but, despite intending to put twists in, I have been wearing the puff.

Very Old Puff

Ug, lazy Kcurly! Seriously, I’ve also been fighting a cold for 2 weeks. My child and I keep exchanging it.

For Thanksgiving, I decided to kill two birds with one stone. I wanted to try out my JC Wrap and Roll and I wanted to do a overnight “quick” twist out. I just got a new batch of Frank Juice in the mail. I usually do my twist outs and styling in general with creamy products. For a change of pace, I did a twist out with both of these (the JC Wrap and Roll is a foam).

I could tell a difference because it was not as easy to detangle/smooth each section. I’ve heard of people using Frank Juice to detangle, but, uh-uh, not I. (I still love you Frank Juice). Anyway, I did a few big twists and slept in it overnight.

Ovenight drying is such a joke. I mean, I’ll read all of these tutorials from people who dry overnight. That never happens to me. Maybe the ends might dry, but most of my hair is usually still damp. I will say this: Using two liquid products really helped it to dry more. It wasn’t completely dry, but about 75 percent.

I used a diffuser to get the rest of it dry and then let it airdry a bit more whilst I wrestled my 3 year old into some clothes. The result was a soft, fluffy, somewhat shiny, twist out-fro. I liked it. Most importantly, it didn’t take long to do.

Getting ready to leave for dinner

It smelled heavenly. I was a little worried about how it would smell when I was doing my hair the night before. Both products have unique smells, but they meshed well together and weren’t overpowering.

I’ll be trying the JC Wrap and Roll on a rollerset at some point but here’s the description.

Wrap & Roll is the best soft mouse, setting and wrapping product available. It dry’s clean, and soft without any residue. It is great for air drying color treated, and damaged hair. The natural glycerides, essential oils and moisturizers leave your hair soft and shiny. For setting or wrapping, dryer time is cut in half. Apply Wrap & Roll liberally to wet hair, and then let it dry naturally, or wrap/set as usual.

Ingredients:

Deionized Water, Anthemis Noblis Flower (Camomile), Symphytum Officinal Leaf (Comfrey), Equisetum Arvense (Horsetail), Urtica Dioica (Nettle), Rosemarinus Officinalis (Rosemary) Leaf, Humulus Lupulus (Hops), Lawsonia Inermis (Henna), Certified Organic Essential Oils: Lemon, Grapefruit, Coco-Sultaine, Glycerine, Glyceryl caprylate, methylisothiazolinone (preservative)

So I’ll be updating whenever I do this rollerset.

Second Day Hair Reflections: My hair feels a little dry. Probably not something that I would experience had I used something creamy. However, it felt moisturized without any residue yesterday.

Just another note: I’ve further updated the Black Friday discount list.
