Water Challenge!!!!!!!! Thirsty much??

A few days ago i decide im gonna Challenge my self to drink water. Yes it sound silly, everybody drinks water right??? Wrong!!! Ask yourself these questions:
How much water do i drink?
How often do i drink it?
Am i consistent?
Is is everyday, one in a blue?
Is is only when I eat?

By the answer to your question you can tell if you need to do a water challenge.. why you ask??
Because Water is good for you

The functions of water in human body are vital. The water:
  • Transports nutrients and oxygen into cells
  • Moisturizes the air in lungs
  • Helps with metabolism
  • Protects our vital organ
  • Helps our organs to absorb nutrients better
  • Regulates body temperature
  • Detoxifies
  • Protects and moisturizes our joints
Every cell in your body needs water from head to toe. That is why it is so important to drink enough fluid. Take for example, brain consists of 90% of water, if you do not supply enough water to your body, your brain cannot function well, and you will get headache or migraine. Hence, next time, if you feel fatigue and headache, it may be the sign of dehydration

Especially if you doing a Hair journey like me, You need water in your life

This is my challenge:

WEEK 1- DRINK AT LEAST 2 BOTTLES OF WATER A DAY
WEEK 2- 2 1/2 BOTTLES OR 3
WEEK 3- 3 BOTTLES
WEEK 4- 4 BOTTLES= 8OZ

BY REQUIREMENT ITS BEST TO DRINK AT LEAST 8OZ OF WATER PER DAY. I have 16.9fl oz bottles so 4 bottles

HOPE THIS WAS VERY INFORMATIVE AND MOTIVATED YOU
GOOD LUCK TO ME AND YOU!!!

Hair Question....Answer

This is a nice conversation/ hair update with me and my Bff. I love when ppl ask question because it urges me to do more research, help them and see also what else i need to add to my regimen. Alright here we go...


What hair products do u use again? And where can I find it?


 - Well i use numerous products for now. I have a previous post about my hair regimen down below {wink wink). Im still on the search for a moisturizing shampoo with no sulfate and no mineral oil, until them im using treseme, it does have sulfate but it does not strip my hair of moisture. For conditioner i rotate the treseme for hair breakage and the VO5 moisture milk which i use for cowashing. And i always add EVOO or coconut oil to my conditioners for extra moisture.
Sulfate- strips your hair of all moisture and anything you previously added to it
Mineral Oil- Block any moisture from nourishing the hair and scalp. its pointless to have a moisturizer with mineral   oil. yuck!


I was watching one of ur vids with te castors oil and stuff*the one with the castor oil and what is evoo?


EVOO- extra virgin olive oil
Coconut oil- open your pores nourishes the scalp. good for hair growth.


Oh ok ... Ur hair looked mad healthy lol since the wedding (July) it grew bak a lot !!! But I really like the oil treatment u were doing shampoo wise I'm still using the biotin shampoo from GNC it's really good..


After my braids my hair got weak again but its back to normal, I condition once a week nowBiotin is good for the hair, im gonna look into that.

I haven't permed it since the wedding (July)!!! But I need to start treatin it Bc it's growing but it's mad dry o I kno I need some kind of moisture


Dryness=Breakage.
you need oil treatments, deep conditioner. and moisturizing and sealing your hair every night, but i only do it every other night if i have a weave in i oil my scalp with Castor oil or Wild growth oil.

U perm ur own hair or u get it done


I do everything my self except for trim.


Oh never mind I messed myself up tryna perm I think that's the only thing that I won't be doing anymore! Do u wrap/set urself too if so how? 


I stretch my perms last time was 4 month, i had braids in so my hair got tangled. now im going for 3 minimum i don't wanna risk it. i don't know how to roller set so i used to blow dry, flat iron and wrap but since my hair journey i haven't used any heat on my hair so i wet wrap. first time i did it it came out very straight and shiny.


-I have a couple links on my blog about building a regimen, whatever i can do do help let me know.


-my first step into all this was watching YouTube videos so good luck

4 month Post relaxer!!!!

Hello, I know its been a while.

i had decided to put senegalese twist in my hair because of all the new growth i was getting due to my JBCO (yay). my senegalse twist which i did my self are down to my lower bak :). I took them out on Saturday night because it about that time. it really helped me strech my relaxer because idk how i would have been able to do it. I AM 4 MONTHS POST RELAXER!!!!. My hair is finally back to normal after so much treatment and manipulation.
This is what i came up with after my research...
-them out and detangle,
-do a prepoo with conditioner, avocado oil and olive oil. leave it in for 1hr and do my wash with V05
-do either a deep conditioner with oils added or an oil treatment. and leave it over night.
it was a whole lot more but this is what i actually did. It kinda work for me but i need better.

This is what actually happened

i took my braids out. I detangles with a water spray bottle and it worked. then i mixed my pre-poo treatment: olive oil mezani conditioner, and JBCO, i mix it and warm it up and apply to my hair and left it in for about an hour.

rince in out and shampoo my hair with treseme clarifying 3x i towel dried my hair and mix my deep conditioner; treseme conditionner, mezani moisture, olive oil, avocado oil, and JBCO i warmed it up and apply to my towel dried hair and this is where it got real for me.....
My whole head was knotted, i let it sit for an hour and rinsed it out but it had already done damage so i had to sit there and detangle and watch my hair come out my scalp.
i apple coconut oil and JBCO.

Right now
my hair is nice and moisturized i went and got cream of nature moisturizer with argan oil, i had a bread out every two night i moisture and seal:)

hope this can help you.
One only learn by doing! so Do!
