Hello to all of my lovely naturals,
I hope that everyone is getting ready to enjoy their New Years celebration because I know I am! You will hear a lot of naturals talk about ACV (apple cider vinegar) When we choose to co-wash our hair there will eventually be build up and it is suggested that an ACV rinse will get rid of any build up. ACV is also know to help with frizzes and make your hair shiny. I don't know about you all but when I first started out natural I had like 3 things in my regimen and now I am up to about 7 UGH but hey when you know better you do better. Anyhoo I have used ACV before and I just didn't see the results that the others are talking about. I mean I did not hate it some people say that afterwards their hair feels stripped but I am pretty sure that they are not diluting it. When you co-wash your hair with non-organic conditioners then you are placing silicone's in your hair which leads to build up (unless you have a silicone free conditioner) Check out my post on silicone's for more info. Since I co-wash my hair I know exactly the feeling when you have too much product on your hair and when that time comes I wash my hair with my homemade shampoo (check that post out its delightful and easy/cheap to make) and that usually does the trick. Now if you notice product buildup then you really need to rinse/wash the product out of your hair. So after I co-washed my hair I used 1/2 cup in about 3 cups of warm water and poured that over my hair and let it dry. No your hair does not smell like vinegar once it dries you can not smell it. At the time I did not have product build up but like I stated before I really did not notice any difference. I suggest that if you have product build up skip the co-wash and just rinse it with water and then apply the rinse. Give it a try and tell me if you noticed any difference....Oh and Happy New Years!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Is Getting a Relaxer a Lifestyle or a Hairstyle
Hello to all of my lovely naturals,
Well in my many years of being natural and not being natural this is a debate that I often find myself into and I have come to notice that people get angry over this issue. I know that I am guilty of praising natural women and barely noticing non naturals...but that doesn't mean that I don't compliment a fly hairstyle its just that I get super excited about a dope natural doo. In most African-American households little girls get there hair relaxed as young as 6 because their Mothers complain that their hair is not "manageable", actually I know of a girl that had a relaxer put in at 2 and she has a permanent bald spot. Before we start shaking our heads at these practices we need to understand where the Mothers are coming from. Think about it if your hair was deemed "unmanageable" at the tender age of 6 or, for argument sake before you were 10. This means that you never learned to "manage" you hair so to your Mother who has had her hair relaxed all of her life you hair is "unmanageable". I say this to show that our hair in our natural state is "unmanageable" when using tools for people with no curls or when compared to bone straight hair. You will often hear natural women say that they never knew beauty until they were able to see their natural hair. If you have never even had the opportunity to see or touch your natural hair and then you go natural it is an eye opening experience. If all that you know is your relaxed hair then I would consider your relaxer being a lifestyle choice for you, I know calling a relaxer a lifestyle sounds silly but I consider being natural a lifestyle for most. I can remember times when I would opt out of going out because I needed a "relaxer" or when I was a young natural and I insisted on putting my hair in 2 strand twists because I could not imagine going outside with my hair unkept. Those actions are taught not by my parents (whom did not let me relax my hair until I was 14) but by society. If we teach our children at a young age that their hair is beautiful,curly,thick and so on and so forth then we will not have teenagers and adults running to the salon in order to avoid that dreaded kitchen showing its face. By teaching our children that our hair is beautiful then we will change the negative connotations behind getting your hair relaxed. I have been natural, gone to a relaxer, and gone back natural and have no shame...because getting a relaxer is not a lifestyle for me it is just a hairstyle. I have seen my hair "managed" it and decided that right now I want a change like I am sure that many of you have done. If you have not witnessed your natural hair with you own two eyes or touched it...I suggest that you try it you might like it and if not then change it up but at least try it. Oh P.S. my number one irritation is if your hair is falling out or not growing stop relaxing it and watch it grow like wildfire

Hair Serum Recipe
Hello to all of my lovely naturals,
I remember using serum when I had a relaxer and all that I can remember is that it was super expensive and it smoothed my already straight hair. It was like $10.00 for that little bitty bottle. Now that my hair is natural and I am always looking for something to better define my curls by smoothing out the frizzes it is worth taking another look into. I am not all that familiar with the ingredients in hair serum but I am pretty sure that they contain chemicals and since I am not that into chemicals I decided to make my own. I have not tried it yet because I have to first henna my hair, but I will be trying it on this new hairstyle that I plan on posting on youtube. So I will let you all know the results in a couple of days.
Hair Serum Recipe Smoothes, Softens Coarse hair
Ingredients:
3 ounce Coconut Oil
1 ounce Castor Oil
5-10 drops fragrance or essential oils (optional)
Directions:
Mix oils in a 4 ounce bottle then store in a cool dark place.

Coconut and Honey Hot Oil Treatment
Hey all my lovely naturals,
I am back....boy oh boy the holidays are always so chaotic so I had to take a week long break...but I am back and better that ever ; ) So with the break I had a chance to sit back and think about how the weather was affecting my hair and what was working and what was not working. One of the things that I realized is that it is so hard for me to keep my hair moisturized so I will be looking into different methods to keep it moist. Oh and I really enjoy having my hair in protective styles. Now between Christmas eve and Christmas I went to 4 parties...exhausting but def fun. Needless to say my hair smelt like smoke (which I was excited about) forcing me to wash it..I like trying out new things when it comes to my hair so the smoke forced me to try this new hot oil treatment. Some of you might remember that about a week ago I started giving myself hot oil treatments again. I like hot oil treatments because I don't wash/rinse the oil out I keep it in my hair and then style...this works perfectly for the winter time and especially when you are going straight into a protective style. Last time I used extra virgin olive oil, castor oil, and coconut oil, but I thought this recipe was worth a try. The only thing is that I am nervous about coconut oil freezing in my hair (which it will do) but other than that I liked the results and will use it in the future. I am not sure if it will replace my evoo because I am obsessed with it but its a nice change. Here is the recipe

4 tbls Coconut oil
2 tbls Natural honey
Directions:
Place coconut oil and honey in a small plastic bag and place the bag in a hot cup of water for 1 minute to warm. Apply to hair, wrap hair in a towel for 20 minutes. Wash then dry hair
Remember that I do not wash the oil out of my hair...my hair loves it so try it both ways and see what works for you.
try it out and let me know if you like or if you have any hot oil treatment recipes that work for you

Organic Conditioner Review
Hello to all of my lovely naturals,
In my never ending search for natural products I decided to try some homemade conditioner. I am not really sure how I felt about it I tried a conditioner that added texture to your hair, but it didn't really appear like it had more texture and it didn't really feel moisturized. Let me show you the recipe before I continue:
1/4 ounce organic plain yogurt
1 egg yolk
1 smashed avocado
Okay so I mixed this up and placed this on my hair for 40 min and rinsed it out. I mean it was not bad but I didn't feel like it made my hair feel extra moisturized nor did it help to define my curls. Oh boy and the biggest factor in me not liking this homemade conditioner was that the egg white partially cooked in my hair, leaving behind little bits of egg. So I walk out of the bathroom and my husband was like..."wait what's that in your hair, I mean its all over your hair" he was referring to the little strings that the avocado had left behind in my hair. Needless to say I will not be trying this one again...but I do have this recipe for mayo conditioner. Don't get me wrong I love my Shea Moisture Organic Raw Shea Butter Deep Treatment Masque, but I also love to try new things. This however was a FAIL but hey on to the next..Do you all have any homemade conditioner stories that were positive or negative? Please share.
Always,

Stylin n Profilin: Individual Braids Placed in an Up Do
Hello to all of my lovely naturals,
First I would like to do a quick update on my lip gloss...okay its just alright so back to the drawing board. Now last week when I did my hot oil treatment I placed my hair into individual braids instead of my usual two part twists. Once I got tired of the braids I took two braids and with some whipped shea butter I placed them into twists and twisted those into bantu knots. I let the knots stay in for a couple of days and then I unraveled those and placed my curly braids into a nice up do...check out the pics below and then check out my video on youtubehttp://www.youtube.com/watch?v=desKjK62v7s let me know what you think.

Homemade: Super De Duper Easy Cranberry Lip Balm
Hello to all of my lovely naturals,
So for those of you who know me, you all know that I am a pretty natural person. I am addicted to a couple of products that aren't natural and it drives me crazy so I have made a list and I want to find natural solutions for these addictions. Now I have been addicted to lip gloss since I can remember. I love it, if anyone in my immediate circle has some awesome lip gloss they know to keep it away from me because I will steal it. With that being said it bothers me that I am putting all of these chemicals on and in my mouth. So I have found a recipe for natural lip gloss right now I am letting it sit but it looks and tastes pretty awesome. I wanted to share this with you because doing things naturally is not hard yes it takes more effort then going to pick it up from the store in some situations, but knowing what you are putting in and on your body is totally worth it. This took me all of 7 min to make and I already had all of the ingredients except for vitamin e oil, I exchanged that for castor oil.
Below you will find the recipe check it out, try it, and let me know. I got this recipe from mybeautyrecipes.com awesome site! and I will fill you all in on the results later on in the week.
P.S fresh cranberries cost about $2 they are on sale now because of the holidays and whatever you don't use you can place in the bottom of a glass vase/container with water and place on display for the holidays!
Ingredients
Mix all the ingredients together in a microwave-safe bowl (bowl may also be heated in a pan of water on the
stovetop).
Stir well and gently crush the berries. Cool mixture for five minutes and then strain through a fine sieve to remove all the fruit pieces. Stir again and set aside to cool completely.
When cool, transfer into a small portable plastic container or tin.

Don't Forget the Hot Oil!
Hello to all of my lovely naturals,
So I must admit that I have been forgetting to do my hot oil treatments, well today I set aside the time to make sure that I did mine. Well if you all know me at all then you know that I did some research. Now I have been giving myself hot oil treatments for years now, but I have been doing it my own way. What I mean by that is that I don't wash the oil out I give myself the hot oil treatment after my wash and conditioning. This has always worked for me but I wanted to know if there were others out there that felt the same way. Some people suggested to just rinse the oil out and all the others suggested to wash it...keep in mind that the people that say wash it out are relaxed or have very straight hair. Since oil weights straight/fine hair down then maybe they don't want any excess oil, but I love oil and so does my hair. To continue on with my research I asked a couple of natural ladies and relaxed ladies the one natural lady said that she was not really sure why we are washing out this oil. Another relaxed lady said "hey do what works for you". So that is what I will continue to do because washing out the oil is just crazy talk to me. Oh and my friend who is also natural was like "Well Verano, you know you are addicted to oil" Haha and she is totally right! Now that I was sure that I was doing what was right for my hair, I decided to experiment with what type of oils I wanted to use in my hot oil treatment. Check out the recipe below.
2 parts Olive Oil
1 part Castor Oil
1 part Coconut Oil
Warm this up in a pot..I don't like using the microwave because the heat is not evenly distributed. Oh and watch the oil because it will burn and keep in mind that you need to make sure that you have enough oil to cover your whole head..BTW this was too much oil for my hair but that is okay you can reuse.
So I parted my hair into four sections and within each section I parted into four sections. I took these sections and combed them and then massaged the oil into my scalp on down to the tips of my hair. After I completed each section I twisted into 2 twists. Let this sit for 15 min if you are going to rinse/wash out if not style as usual. I really liked the way that this made my scalp and hair feel. The only thing that I am skeptical about is that I have been hearing a lot of freezing coconut oil horror stories. If you don't have these oils (shame on you! ; *) then just use olive oil. Don't forget that during the winter dry months that we need to fully moisturize our hair. Oh and lucky for you naturals I am pretty sure that I need to clip my ends so I will post a demonstration vid on that in a little bit. Do you have any recipes for hot oil or do you like to leave the oil in also? Drop a comment and let me know!

Stylin n Profilin: Braid Out Up-Do for the Holidays
Hello to all of my lovely naturals,
I know that everyone wants to look their best on the holidays, so this is one of the hairstyles that I plan on rocking this holiday season. To attain this hairstyle I co-washed my hair and braided it in plaits and applied my whipped shea butter. The next day I took the plaits down and swooped the bangs then pinned the rest into a fro hawk. After that I secured the bottom of the hawk with bobby pins and let the rest hang out in a fluffy poof. I love it and I hope you will too check out the pics below.

Curl Defining Frizzies Free Gel
Hello to all of my lovely naturals,
Hey so in my never ending quest to stop using chemicals on my hair I have run into an awesome natural gel!!! and I love it. This weekend I put my hair in an afro puff and wanted to slick the sides down so I used this...it worked perfectly on my hair, I wish that I had thought to take some pics but I was was too busy to be thinking about that. So check out the recipe try it and tell me what you think.
Boil and strain flax seeds – they produce their own sticky gel. Add some coconut oil for shine, and you’ve got a curl definer with hold, so none of the crunchiness.
Thanks,
Verano

Henna Update
Hi ladies well I have been applying henna to my hair for about three weeks now...yes I am doing it once a week. I am pretty sure that I am going to change to every two weeks not for any reason in particular but just because it is time consuming. So I really love the results not only is my hair shiner but it is smoother,softer and stronger. I have not had much color change but it looks as though it is turning a light brown, which I am thankful for because I did not want to go red. When I first blogged about my henna experience I was using the henna/cassia mix that is made by light mountain (whole foods) and my major concern was the loss of curl pattern that I have heard people complain about. Once I washed my hair I noticed that my curl pattern was the same but maybe just a little looser but the good thing about cassia is that it is not permanent, it lasts up to two weeks in your hair. After a couple of washes I was back to normal. Because I knew that I wanted to do a full henna application I was afraid that after repeat applications I would not like the results. So whats a natural girl to do?! Well I searched the henna blogs and forums and women were talking about mixing their henna with alma to retain your curl pattern. That is just what I did I mixed half henna with half alma and my hair is back to normal but it is a little wavier which I like. I think everyone should at the least do a cassia treatment once a month because it is like a deep conditioner for you hair and trust me you will love the results. Check out the pics below of my braid out and tell me what you think.

Tips on How to Retain Your Hair and Even Help it to Grow
Hello to all of my lovely naturals,
Hi guys!!! I apologize about not blogging yesterday it totally slipped my mind I had an event to attend...So I have a lot of friends who are concerned about loosing their hair or making it grow in certain spots. If you can remember a couple of posts back I touched on making your hair grow by applying aloe vera juice/gel to it. Well after some research I found a couple of oils and herbs that will promote hair growth. The amazing thing about these oils and herbs is that you probably already have them around the house or in you hair product arsenal and you can apply them topically.
Basil: Promotes hair growth
Grapefruit Oil: Promotes hair growth
Peppermint Oil: Promotes hair growth
Cypress: Promotes hair growth
Sage: Promotes hair growth
Saw Palmetto: Promotes hair growth
Keep in mind that these herbs and oils have other delightful benefits but I just wanted to point out that they promote hair growth.You can get these oils at any health food store,use them and let me know if they work for you!
