Happy Birthday To Bee!

6 July has come around again...that means it's my birthday!!

A few things have changed since this time last year.. Some of which are that  I finally got around to starting a blog to share my passion about healthy hair care and my natural hair. And I'm seeing life through different lenses ( no seriously, I also got new frames for my specs hehe), more grown up than last year but still with more growing to do.

Deep Conditioning 101: What, Why, When, and How

Hi Doves!

Let's talk about deep conditioning. I know i'm preaching to the choir to those in the bloggosphere, but I've got new readers who are interested in hair care for the first time. Even if it's the same gospel being preached over and over..... and over again, and even if only one person sees this for the first time and learns something, I will be more than happy!

Buckle up folks, it's going to be a long post.

What is deep conditioning?

Deep conditioning is when you use a conditioner with ingredients that penetrate the hair strand, strengthen, nourish, soften, smooth the cuticle and moisturise the hair. The deep conditioner may perform one, some or all of these functions depending on the type you use. Most deep conditioners state that the product should be applied and left on the hair for at least 15-20 mins.

What's Up with My Hair?

 Hi Doves!

As promised, here is the update on my hair.

I'm still wigging it. I really love the access I have to my hair whenever I want it. At the same time it's in a protective hair style. Double plus! So i'm actually looking into making an afro wig. Like a weave I previously had done. Just need to purchase the hair and wig cap and I'll be good to go.

Man I miss that weave ...
