Organic vs Economical

Fantasia as well as most Gels have protein in it… This is what makes Kinky Curly Curling Custard well worth the price but when you’ll be using it daily which do you choose???

Information about Protein: The very nature of the hair relaxer is to break the protein or cystine bond in the hair. This is that the hair can straighten. But once you become Au Naturel, Is too much protein bad for your hair? http://www.hairfinder.com/hair3/protein-treatments.htm

I wash at least 5 days out of the week, applying gels only on wash days. I only apply gel on soaking wet hair therefore my hair is soaked with water (this is what you do before you go swimming, presoak your hair with water so there is little room for the chlorine to soak in), before I apply other products… I always put what I call a base on first (Vegetable Glycerine by Now), then I apply the Gel. Doing it this way, I haven’t experienced any dryness or breaking.

I like them both, so I’ll be keeping one of each ;)

The Journey Continues :)

Biotin is a water soluble B vitamin (By water soluble it means u cant overdose becuz any excess is ejected from your body in your )

It may or may not make your hair grow faster ( It does for me but some people say it doesnt work)

But It Will make it thicker (Definitely)

I take the highest dosage, 5,000 mcg (Can be found at walmart 4 like $3.00)

Take one a day (or however many u want but i just take one)

No real side effects but your facial hair will get thick as ……..believe me……

Dont buy any shampoo that claims it is better becuz it has biotin in it………because biotin isn’t even absorbed well through the skin…..

What I think has helped my hair grow:

-Making sure my ends are knotfree and split end free.
-Making sure my hair is moist on a daily basis
-Taking a multivitamin
-Co Washing(using any quality conditioner and leaving it for an hour or so)
-Using coconut oil gently on scalp once a week
-Wearing protective styles(not messing with it too often)
-New way of trimming(check out ladykpnyc)
-being patient

Hey everyone!

Ok, I’m back with yet another vid

I promise you once I learn how to transfer my actual moving video from my DV camcorder onto my PC, I’ll make some more vids. ;)

This vid is especially for my napptural sistas who may be discouraged about becoming or staying napptural.

Hang in there! It takes time and patience, but the results are amazing!

If you have any questions/concerns, go to my website, http://www.fotki.com/akamsnikki

I have way more pics, product info, updates, etc. on there!

I’ve received A LOT of inquiries about the song on the video! Hot song right?

Well, it’s called “Every Phase of Light” by The Suns of Light aka The Boys (Dial My Heart, Lucky Charm, Crazy)…

You can check them out here:

Make sure you get the album “Mission” (the album where you can find the song) here:

Shout out to The Suns’ father, Mr. Abdul-Samad, for rekindling my old school girl memories of his gifted sons via YouTube!

If you don’t have their albums, I implore you to get them now!

Thanks for stopping by!
