Miss Jessie Loves The Kids!
It's official....Miss Jessie got the seal of approval from the hubby!
In my household, Sundays are known as "Hair Day and Night" for my girls.
I have a 7 yr old (Ashlyn) and a 2 yr old (Ava). Both with different textures. Ashlyn has 4b hair and Ava has 3c. Because of the different textures, both girls need different products for different needs.
Tonight I used Miss Jessie's Curly Meringue on Ashlyn's hair. I needed something that would give a good hold for the two strand flat twist and two strand twist that I was doing on her hair.
For Ava, I used Miss Jessie's Baby Buttercreme. I needed something that would provide good moisture and shine, yet prevent major shrinkage.
OUTCOME
Of course I knew (based off personal experience) that the Curly Meringue would do the job on Ashlyn's. But the shocker was how well the Baby Buttercreme took to Ava's hair. Normally when I do Ava's hair (after being freshly washed) her hair would soak up all moisture and her beautiful long ponytails would shrink up to short "pig tails". But this time, her hair was super soft, very shiny, and this time LITTLE SHRINKAGE!!!!!
Miss Jessie gets the seal of approval from both me and the HUBBY!!!!!

It's Okay To Share!
I got a secret to share! Well...its not my secret, but my hubby's, (I know...bad wife). My hubby LOVES Shea Moisture Curl Enhancing Smoothie!
He said that it gives him more moisture and shine than any other male hair care products that he has used in the past!
This is hilarious to me because since the beginning of my journey, he has always referred to my products as my "fruits and berries."
Look who's using "fruits and berries" now...LOL!
Guess it's time to start hiding my good stuff...LOL!
Natural Hair Care....There's an APP for that!
I would first like to start off by saying, "GO BUCKEYES!"
Okay...now that's out of my system....
I decided to search through the Android Market to see if there were any apps for natural hair. Believe it or not, I came across a nice amount. One that caught my eye was called "Curls On The Go" by NaturallyCurly.com ( if you're not hip to the website...get hip)!
I love it! I would recommend this to anyone with an Android or an iPhone! Here are a few reasons why I feel it's the app to have!
1. It tells you what type of hair day to expect based off your hair type and the weather forecast in your area!
2. Recommends products based off your hair type.
3. No need to search for hours on YouTube looking for hair tutorial done by people with your hair type. This app will pull up pics and videos of people with similar hair type.
4. There's a Salon Locator (I didn't see any I was familiar with...but its still great to have that option)!
5. And it provides tips and tricks!
So what are you waiting for???? Download the app! Oh...and did I mention its FREE!!!!
