As I Am, Five Finger Method

Today is wash day

 Half up with a bun













I find out that the best thing for my hair is to let it be, by finger detangling and not disturbing its original curl pattern I have less frizz, no more poof ball (you know when you leave the house looking all cute and by the time you get to your destination the hair grew into what it wants to be), I no longer am afraid of the rain, wind, or humidity because my hair keeps it style. The only time I detangle is when I am about to wash my hair or when my hair is wet with conditioner. I no longer us combs nor brush and I am happy with my discovery of the five finger method ( well ten finger method). I do have frizz by the end of the week but its still cute and I can work with it.

Even though this is consider a braid and go because I do set my wet hair in braids to dry and help with elongating my curls, I can still do so many different style with my hair, and I have pictures to prove it.

Morrocco Method NEW Styling Dragon Pomade

 I normally do not do a review on a product until I've test it out for a month or so, its been a week now that I've been using MM new Styling Dragon Pomade and I just love it. First lets talk about the scent it smells like chocolate a very natural faint coco butter scent. The texture is creamy and soft to the touch and this blew me away it melts on contact when you rub your hands together, a little is needed to achieve the style you desire, it is not oily no residue is left on my hair and I use this  to slick back my edges that speaks a different language from the rest of my hair (its unruly) but this pomade turns those unruly naps into curls and I have no BUILD UP. I don't know about you but this is big I was so impress I purchase another jar for back up (call it what you may product junkie).

The ingredients are all natural Morrocco Method would not have it any other way, I use this product to seal my twist or braids on wash days and as I mention above to slick my edges daily.

Winter Hair

If you take a shed hair and stretch it and it pops with out stretching its dry yep that's what was taking place with my hair 3 weeks ago so I knew it was time to try some new leave-in and technique.

The list below are a few things that I've changed up and add and its doing the trick
1. Huetiful steamer once per week every time I wash hair
2. Aloe vera juice on clean dripping wet hair
3. My version of the Kimmay tube leave- in
4. MM pomade to seal it all in 
5. Camellia oleifera oil to keep it moisturized until its time to wash (I rotate between this and MM Euro oil)
 

Morrocco Method

Morrocco Method is the business I use everything MM in my hair.

MM has a 5 elements system that has 5 shampoo, and 2 conditioners along with a few oils, gels, finishing and moisturizing sprays. But today I will be talking about cleansing not styling, I try to wash my hair once per week sometimes it goes to every 2 weeks because I don’t use a shampoo that lathers any more. MM shampoo does not contain any foaming agents to strip our hair of it natural oils, so I rotate my MM cleaning cream each time I cleanse and then follow with a conditioner, detangle with my fingers and sit under my huetiful steamer with a few drops of EO thanks to (Hey Fran Hey). Now that colder and darker days are approaching I know I have to change it up a bit I loved my summer style and it was my staple for summer my braid and curl but now I am back to my wash and braid.

This summer I did a lot of snipping off split ends and damage because it needed to be done if I intended to move forward with  healthy hair.

Frustrated with your curls

I know how it gets, too much work to wash my hair I just don’t know what to do with my hair. HELP

I say wash your hair every 2-3 weeks if it’s taking too much time and your tired of being a slave to your hair, dirt will not kill your nor will it damage your hair and depending on your product usages you can get away with washing monthly. If your one to wash your hair 2-3 times per week I do hope your using condition and not shampoo, that's very striping for your hair it’s like someone who has oily skin and use harsh detergent EWW to cleanse guess what your face will produce 3 times more the oil to replenish what you just now taken away and over production of oil is not good for your skin, scalp, or hair.

Change it up, watch you tube and get creative with your mane, how cool is our hair you can do so many things with it no joke. My loved style at the moment is a braid and curl with a side part it comes out something like Corinne Bailey Rae hair.
