New Style: Banana Clip Pin Curl Style

I saw this style on a fellow Hairlista and I instantly fell in l♥ve. I like this style because:

  • It's easy to do
  • Low manipulation
  • Cheap
  • Classy
  • Great for those stretching relaxers.
I did this style on air dried hair. I moisturized with S-Curl No Drip Activator and sealed with Hot Six Oil. I used 2 bobby pins per curl (6 in total) after securing the banana clip. I added a little muff in the front for style :)

I am 10 weeks post relaxer in these photos so don't mind the kinky coils! LOL

How My Hair Therapy Wrap Broke! ;(

(gel pack on the left is the one that burst. The gel pack on the right was not affected by the heat)

Truth be told, I put my Hair Therapy Wrap in the microwave for over 90 seconds without intervals. I don't' know what I was thinking. Upon removing it out of the microwave, the gel packs were swollen like a balloon ready to pop. I was so nervous. Lo and behold, one of the gel packs burst open (left side near my ear). Since then, my Hair Therapy Wrap still works and I've used it but it's NOT the same! When conditioning, I feel like my left side doesn't get as hot as the rest of my hair. Ladies, learn from this experience! It's suggested that you leave the Hair Therapy Wrap in the microwave for 60 seconds with 10 second intervals.

In the meantime, I've been using my heating cap (from Sally Beauty Supply) and my Hot N Gold hooded dryer. I've had this heating cap for years and it still heats up VERY well. It makes my hair extremely soft and conditioned. I always use the highest setting to get the job done. In the meantime, I will continue to use my heating cap until I purchase a new Hair Therapy Wrap.

Tropic Isle Jamaican Black Castor Oil Shampoo With Shea Butter

Promises: Gently Cleans & Conditions Hair, Restores Moisture & Promotes Healthy Scalp. Tropic Isle Living Jamaican Black Castor Oil does not contain Sulfates, Alcohol and other potentially harmful chemicals used in commercial shampoos. It's 100% Natural.


Directions: Not listed on the bottle.

Ingredients: Jamaican Black Castor Oil, Pimento Oil, Aloe Vera, Lavender and Lemon, Rosemary Extract, Shea Butter, Organic Saponified Oils of Coconut, Olive, Jojoba, Vegetable Gum, Glycerin Extract.

The Truth: Overall, Jamaican Black Shampoo is great! It's sulfate free, moisturizes and cleanses the hair very well. At first I didn't like it because it left a weird film/greasy feeling on my hair making it feel coated yet moisturized and soft at the same time. It was so foreign to me, but after getting the proper knowledge and finishing my wash day regimen steps, I noticed that my hair was noticeably thicker, fuller, and moist after air drying - not just on my wash day, but days later too. I highly recommend this shampoo for relaxed ladies but especially for naturals (both adults and kids).

Tips:
Prepoo with Jamaican Black Castor Oil first then shampoo.

Price:
$10.99 USD 8 Fl. Oz

Hairlicious Rating: (4/5) Very Good
