I’ve see several promotion for Chris Rocks documentary title “Good Hair”. I think this is definitely a topic up for debate. I’d like to share my opinion on this topic. My hair is super think and up until a few months ago I’ve wore relaxers, weaves and extensions. I never thought of my hair as bad hair but I have compared it to women who’s hair may appear to be more manageable because of their softer or more wavy texture. Since beginning my journey to natural hair I have really grown to love my hair and how easily it can be managed with the right products and techniques.

I think what many women fail to realize is that once you learn your hair type and learn what it takes to get it under control the idea of bad hair no longer exist. As I am transitioning to natural I am learning that there are more natural ways to achieve that sleek frizz free look that we want. I am loving getting my silk outs, which I have yet to learn to master at home. I think “Good Hair” is healthy hair, and with the right care and technique anyone can have it. Stop comparing your hair to what you see and start loving and learning your hair.

I wanted to share a clip of the Chris Rock documentary “Good Hair” and I welcome your comments and your opinions on this issue.

These mohawks are modern and totally fierce. Some of these looks you can achieve at home on your own. Others you should consult with your stylist.

Post your comments on these colorful looks!

I was talking to my sister last night about how my stylist has totally disappeared. Well not completely we tried to exchange service and it went all wrong, but that’s an entirely different blog for another day. The bottom line is that now I am without a stylist..again. As our conversation progressed we realized you really need to have at least two stylist that you trust in your hair. It never occurred to me before, and I’m sure some of you reading this is like well duh. Never the less now I know. So here is what we came up with about why you should have at least two stylist.

1. Variety – Unfortunately all stylist cannot do it all. So although you may love your stylist, she may not be able to give you all the hot new looks you want.

2. Healthy Hair – One of your stylist should definitely be on top of keeping your hair healthy.  Even though you want to die your hair 3 different shades of blond, it may not be the best idea. Make sure that you are seeing a stylist this is recommending safe and healthy hair care.

3. Time and Schedules - I know all too well how my stylist would just take weeks off at a time, what am I supposed to do then? Go to my other stylist (notice I did not say backup stylist, you want to make sure you treat your stylist equal)

4. Career Level - One of your stylist ma Make sure you can always afford to get somethine done to your hair. This means making sure you can afford your stylist.y be at a level in their career that demands the high cost for that fresh new do. It’s great to make sure you can not break your budget  trying to get Rihanna’s latest bob.

5. Drama – This is how I learned my lesson. You never know when issues will arise between you and your stylist. Hopefully your stylist is professional enough to not loose you as a client over it. But in the event that you discontinue your relationship with you one of your stylist, you won’t be stuck having to deal with you hair.

These looks are easy to do yourself and maintain. If you are transitioning from relaxed to natural try different looks until you find a style that fits your personality and your lifestyle. If you’ve been rocking the same look for a while, change it up a bit.

I just finished sampling the Soft-Sheen Carsons line Oil Therapy. I must say I was very surprised at the results. I personally used this product on my own at home and couldn’t wait to share my experience. Before we start, just let me tell about my hair. It is very thick, even though it’s relaxed I still have a hard time maintaining it on my own between salon visits. So I was a bit skeptical about this product not having any knowledge of it prior to this review.

I started with the Ultimate Recovery Shampoo; washing my hair as usual using my hands to massage my scalp and get a deep clean. The first thing I noticed is that my hair got softer and didn’t get tangled. I have a relaxer in my hair, and one thing I noticed when I wash my hair between salon visits is that my hair gets hard and tangled, the Ultimate Recovery Shampoo has changed the way I wash my hair. My hair felt like I was using a conditioner.

After using the shampoo I used the Ultimate Recover Conditioner. This product really added additional moisture and left my hair feeling very light. I then used the FeatherLight Oil. This product is like using a hot oil treatment that you don’t have to let sit in hot water before you use it. While my hair was still wet I evenly massaged a bit from scalp to tip, and put on a plastic shower cap. This oil treatment has alot of good stuff in it like coconut, olive oil, avocado, and jojoba oils really good stuff.  This only stayed in for about 3-5 minutes then I rinsed it out. At this point I couldn’t belive the texture of my hair. It was soft, moisturized, and had a nice healthy sheen.

The last product I used was there Dry-Scalp Leave-In Treatment. I used this just on the scalp in place of using any heavy oils. I don’t blow dry my hair so I just gave myself a wrap to let my hair dry. The next morning I woke up to soft, shiny, manageable hair that was ready for me to flat iron or style as I pleased.

I hope this review has helped  give you an inside experience on the Soft-Sheen Carson’s Oil Therapy line of hair care products. I was very impressed with the results. These products are also very affordable at just $3.99 per item.
