Short hair update: 2 months

Can you believe it's already been just a bit over two months since I big chopped my hair?

My hair is about 1.5 inches long, I usually flatten the curls with gel

Up to now, here's what I've learned:

-I need to wet my hair like, all of the time. It LOVES moisture
-I LOVE henna. I buy the one from Lush. I also love ghassoul clay.
-I am a product junkie
-The hair DOES grow. And the more it grows, the more I am loving the curls.
-I still do not want to use heat on my hair.
-EcoStyler gel is my best friend
-People do look at me differently
-My eyebrows need to be on point all of the time. Same thing for my makeup *sigh*
-I cannot compare my hair to anyone's. It is my own. And I think I may have 3 "textures": 3c, 4a, 4b
-The more natural the product is, the better. My faves up to now: Extra virgin coconut oil, olive oil, Jamaican Black Castor oil, Curl Junkie Rehab deep conditioner.

My 5 favorite products/items this summer

I get a lot of questions about this! I could go on forever about my new/old favorite products but decided to limit this article to my top 5.

Check out my faves this summer:

1. Herbal Essences Hello Hydration Conditioner

Dude. This works like MAGIC! Not too long ago, I heard about this thing called Co-Washing (washing your hair only with conditioner, it really works) and I tried tons of conditioners and was not impressed...I also wasn't down to pay more than 10$ for a conditioner I would be using almost every single day. After reading this article on CurlyNikki, I decided to try the HEHH and was pleasantly surprised! It's super cheap (about 6$ for the biggest size) and worked wonderfully on my short hair. It moisturizes my hair completely, makes it a bit too easy to detangle and also works well as a deep conditioner. I strongly suggest it. 

Available at pharmacies, Wal-Mart etc.

2. MAC Girl About Town super bright pink lipstick

Again, something I discovered by accident. Those girls at MAC are really good at making you buy a dozen articles when you only came for two! I love this lipstick & think I will be re-purchasing it, especially since it adds the perfect punch to any simple outfit. Oh, and Beyoncé wears it so it's obviously awesome. Hehehe...

Available at MAC Stores
