Hey now !!! Guess what ??? I just got that extra dark castor oil by Sunny Isle!!! Do I love it ??? Or do I LOVE IT!!! Man... can I just say that this was probably one of the best purchases that I have purchased in a hot minute!!! Some people have complained about the coffee / ash/ earth lik fragrance, but I <3 the way it smells!!! I noticed right away that my hair held more moisture with the coating of the thick oil on both my roots and the ends of my hair!!! It has been stated in various vlogs and blogs alike that this particular dark version of the well known oil is supposed to be able to grow your hair. But more than that, it is supposed to decrease the amount of split ends that one experiences, gets rid of dandruff and keeps the hair well hydrated. That in and of itself should promate that ability for the hair to grow.


Sunny Isle Extra Dark Jamaican Black Castor Oil

So, what I plan on doing is monitering how well this works on my hair by looking at how long I can keep my hair in the double strand twists before removing them. What I have planned on doing is spraying my scalp and hair nightly with a mixture of water and oils that I have mixed together in a spray bottle. With this new routine, I am trying to make sure that my hair remains moisturized daily. With summer getting ready to take off in full hot as hell strength, I have to make sure that my hair does not dry out in the process.

I still do not plan on straightening my hair to see exactly what the length is, but, I am pretty sure that it is below bra strap at this point. ( From some side pieces that I was detangling, the hair stretched to the side of my breasts and stopped there ... in the middle I would say) I might have to get one of those shirts that have measurments details on them so that in the mirror you can tell how long your hair is. LOL.

Fruit of the month:

Ranier Cherries

Cherries ladies and gents!!! If you have not picked up a bag of cherries yet... you need to take your self over to the closest grocer and pick up a pack!!! They are especially sweet this time of year, and they are packed with nutients, antioxidents and so much more good stuff it is imporssible for me to write it all. It is also known as a super food!!! Does it help in hair growth??? I have no idea, but there is no way it could hurt!!! I am going to pick up another pack as soon as I am done writting thig here blog!!! LOL

So anywho, that Extra Dark castor oil is a big YES on the list of items to add to the regular routine!!! I purchased the 4oz bottle from http://www.outerbeautysupply.com . Actually this site has a great deal of awesome products for people with natural textured hair!!!

Well, that is all I have to share for now!!! I hope you enjoyed the post!!! Like always, I hope to see you back again soon!!! Til then...

Goals, Achievements, and Great Lengths!!!

Howdy Ladies and Gents!!!



I decided to start a new Blog since we are now looking at year two from the original goal of achieving waist length hair!!! Okay, so let's face it ... I am starting this Blog some 3 months tardy!!! BUT... in my defense, I have learned soooo much new information that I can now share since my hiatus.

But, first... I am just going to make this post. Brief and to the point.

Currently my hair rests just below BSL ( Bra Strap Length ). My current goal is to achieve waist length hair by April 2014. Well in order to meet that goal I would have to have about 4 - 6 inches of new hair growth. At this point, I believe that goal is possible. Mainly because I have a completely better understanding about what I have to do in order to maintain both the health and strength of my hair.

In the months to come, I will be discussing some of the new products I have placed into regular rotation as well as some of my go to low manipulation hair styles. As often as possible I will talk about various foods and oils that will promote better health and how to visually see a difference in your hair skin and nails by eating an drinking healthy organic produce and beverages.

I will also start divulging information that I discover about Ayurvedic hair care and what that means for the health of your hair.

In the mean time ... here is a hair chart with some important information on how to grow your hair... and for folks like me ... pay particularly close attention to the curly hair part!!! (^_^)

Until next time...
