Product review: Colora Henna
Last week, I decided that I was going to use henna for the first time — Colora Henna, specifically. I’ve always wanted to try it, but the time commitment was especially painful to me. I don’t have six hours on a Saturday to wait for henna to do its magic. On Friday, I did have…
Product review: Kimble Ginger Cream conditioner
When I went to New York last year (it feels just like yesterday!), I was on a mission to find some Kimble Hair products. I wanted to get their Hair Butter, Bounce Back Curl Revitalizer and the Ginger Cream conditioner. When I walked into Target, I really did expect to come out with arms full…
Product review: Carol’s Daughter Hair Milk and Lisa’s Hair Elixir
Carol’s Daughter’s products have always interested me — even before I decided to go natural. So when the Relaxed Chick wanted me to swap some products back in November.

Product review: Giovanni Direct Leave-in Conditioner, Weightless Moisture
While I was in New York, I was able to get my hands on Giovanni Direct Leave-In Conditioner, Weightless Moisture. I had been searching for a good leave-in conditioner. I had been using Infusium 23 Frizzology and I HATED it. Why? It didn’t do anything. I would spray and spray and spray and still –…

Winter protective style #1: Braids
Yesterday, I finally got my hair braided as part of the Healthy Ends Challenge and as a winter protective style. As the weather’s been getting colder waiting until the end of the month to get my hair braided felt like forever and a day. Normally, I would let my braider wash and moisturize my hair,…

Product review: Herbal Essences gel and VO5 Hot Protein treatment
As I told you, dear readers, last week Shoppers had a sale on a number of products, including Herbal Essences. So, I did do a little shopping and picked up some Herbal Essences Body Envy Weightless Volumizing Gel fused with white nectarine and pink coral flower. Sounds nice, but I my expectations were low. On Saturday…
Product review: Live Clean Exotic Nectar Argan Oil restorative conditioner
This is how the story goes: my sister and I went to The Ex (annual fair in Toronto) and there were a slew of people hawking skincare and hair care products. Most I wasn’t interested in, but we did test argan oil. Didn’t like the vendor, but loved the oil. It didn’t feel oily or…
