Twisted With Design Essentials

Hi beauties!

The March curlBOX was filled with goodies by Design Essentials. I plan to use the complete system this weekend when I wash my hair but I had to try out the Coconut & Monoi Deep Moisture Milk Souffle. 



This product has a great consistency to it. It has a lot of slip which works well for me since I typically work with dry stretched hair. Yesterday I decided on a half crown flat twist with some lift that came out really nice.







I ended up being really lazy last night and slept with my hair just like this.  In the morning I had a nice chunky twist out going on. My hair was still very nice and moisturized from the Moisture Milk Souffle which made my hair prep super simple.   I just rolled twisted and tucked the hair to get today’s look. Love it!







Can’t wait to try out the rest of the Design Essential products in the March CurlBox this weekend. Stay tuned!

Retro Hair & Menswear

Good Morning loves!

I’ve been out of commission for a bit because I’ve been under the weather but I’m trying to work my way back into some normalcy! Today I’m wearing this retro hairstyle paired with a mens Claiborne button down and a charcole blazer both thrifted from the Good Will.  I am absolutely in love with this look. What do you think?





A Surprisingly Amazing Combination

Seriously, who would think to combine Dove and Dark and Lovely products? curlBOX of course! So, this morning I decided to take these two new products I got from my February curlBOX for a test drive. The results were like POW!

The Dove Quench Absolute Supreme Creme Serum really served as a great moisturizer. I almost always work with dry stretched hair, and this product did a great job giving my hair some moisture before I started styling.

As for the Dark and Lovely Defining Gel and Moisture Butter, well, let me just pause so I can collect myself to say…A-MAZING! I absolutely love the texture of this stuff. It really is the perfect blend of Gel and Butter. I can definitely tell that this will be a great product for twist and braid out definition, or even rod sets! My hair is so silky with this product. Love love.

The style is a total of three flat twists meticulously placed to form this great shape. I’ll do a recap of this week’s styles but I can already tell you that this is my favorite look of the week.

Here are a few more pics.

LottaBody Curls

Hi loves!

So, I fully intend on doing a YouTube video unboxing my very first curlBOX but I couldn’t wait to share these beautiful curls I achieved using one of the products that was included.

I’ve been wanting to try Lottabody products for a while so I was thrilled to find the Moisture Me Curl & Style Milk as one of the curlBOX products this month. I decided to try out the product with a flexi rod set. Check out these amazing curls! Very excited to do more with this product in the future.
