But then I guess a relaxed girl can also do the same and save money. I get girls asking me what i use all the time, and i always tell them it's not about the product but the technique I use. I like to experiment with different things, so I don't really have a staple or the holy grail product.

Folks are attracted to shiny/bright packaging- parabens and cones in pretty dresses? Yes please. Lol. Smh. A friend scrunched up her face when I mentioned I used shea butter and olive oil in my hair. I guess she was expecting to hear abt Motions and Pantene Pro v or something.Gerihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11326345886576571752noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6143366796764247140.post-401661074880566882012-07-03T19:30:09.049+01:002012-07-03T19:30:09.049+01:00this is encouraging thank you very much

But it is not expensive at all.<br /><br />However the one excuse i hate hearing is " I can't go natural because my hair is so hard, you are lucky you have soft hair" Makes me want to scream MOISTURISE, MOISTURISE YOUR HAIR. <br />Ok im done ranting......Natural Girlnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6143366796764247140.post-77661574715022662302012-07-02T16:11:10.558+01:002012-07-02T16:11:10.558+01:00Less is more....
