Hello beautiful people who decided to listen to what I have to say :)!!!!!
Okay so to the point...I have been wearing my natural curls for the past 2 years now and I still don't feel completely comfortable in them :( I'm sure most of you curly girls know how I feel! My curls are about a 3b or 3c i think and I can see a million others girls with curly hair and wonder why the heck mine doesn't look like theirs! I feel like I'm all alone in the world of curls and I have no one to talk to and so I decided to talk to you guys! I just want to know if I'm all alone in this feeling or if other people feel the way I do!
A little background information...I have had a relaxer in my hair for the past 10 years and I would usually get them twice a year, I decided to stop putting them in my hair in August 2006. I went through the phase of just trimming the ends every two weeks to try to get rid of the relaxed hair as my natural hair grew out and I did this for about a year and a half before I decided I couldn't take it anymore. I couldn't take the curly hair with the straight ends it was driving me insane, all i wanted was to have my curls back...so one day I said enough was enough...lol! I woke up one morning February 2008 to be exact and I just grabbed my curls one by one and cut off all the straight ends...now I wouldn't suggest anyone else doing this because I ended up with hair so uneven its not even funny :)! After cutting all the straight ends off my hair was just below my ears (when all my life I have had hair to the middle of my back) so this was a really weird transition that was going to take some getting use to. I just told myself I was going to embrace my natural curls and learn to like the new found me...well let me tell you that still hasn't happened, I can say that I am a little more comfortable now that my hair is no longer ear length because it is now shoulder length but I'm still not feeling like my hair is where I want it to be!!!!!
My cousin told me about this product called Mixed Chicks back in Feb. 2008 and so I ordered it online! I have to say that this product was my life saver!!!!!! I absolutely love it!! I have tried everything under the sun on my curly hair even before I got the relaxer and nothing and has ever worked like Mixed Chicks! It really holds and defines my curls while leaving my hair soft and feeling great! The only thing that I have noticed with Mixed Chicks is that my curls seem to be smaller! So for now this is my number 1 product for until I find something better...if there is even anything better!
I have tried Miss Jessie curly pudding, meringue, stretch silkening, baby butter creme, and rapid recovery and they did nothing for my hair but make it feel greasy and like there was some sort of plastic film over it! Now maybe it's because I'm not using the products correctly but I tried using them several times with different amounts applied each time and still my hair feels tangled, greasy and like there is a film on top of it! Even after applying water to my hair I could still feel the film like product preventing water from seeping in! Not a good look guys! So I will never use this product again and its sad to say because I spent a ton of money on it!
God Bless,
