Hi, my name is Sue

I have been wanting to do a roller set for a LONG time now because I have not done it since my transitioning days. Granted, it did not come out exactly how it did back then but good enough for my first time on completely natural hair. 

my hair was freshly co-washed and still wet when I applied my moisturizer and setting lotion using these size rollers.

pay close attention to the hat, because that is where the disaster took place. If it wasn't the granny stuck to my head curls then it was the hair that decided not to dry. Although I was so ready to just wash my hair I refused to let the greatness of the front go to waste. Pinning it up and separating the twists I was left with a great updo! 

xoxo, Cae

Braid Take Down!

Taking down braids can be a true pain but don't let the frustration cause you to treat your hair like crap! I've taken down braids on my permed hair but dealing with natural hair is an entirely different story. If you did not have your hair blow dried or straightened before adding extra hair take extra care during the take down.

What you'll need

spray bottle with water 

cheap conditioner

wide tooth comb 

rat tail comb

clarifying shampoo

deep conditioner

leave-in conditioner

(Your hair WILL shed more than usual, remember that our hair sheds about 100 strands a day)

1. Part your hair into about 6 sections making sure not to make them too big.

2. Lightly spritz your hair with water and add a generous amount of conditioner from root to tip.

3. Starting from the bottom to the top begin to detangle your hair with the wide tooth comb. Once it begins      to feel easier to detangle switch to a rat tail comb.

4. Twist the section up once you are done detangling.

5. Head to the sink or shower and shampoo your hair section by section making sure to remove all build up. Twist hair back after each section is thoroughly rinsed. 

6. Deep condition! I used the same deep conditioner in my previous post but I added an egg for some extra protein!

7. Wash that bad boy out with a conditioner (I really want to try Pantene's Co-Wash Cleansing Conditioner)

8.  Add your leave-in, detangle once more to make sure you have all shed hair out. 

9. STYLE AS USUAL!
