Here are a few photo's showing the results of a Braid Out done on Dry Hair using S-Curl No Drip Activator to moisturize and Hot Six Oil to seal. I braided my hair and in the morning I unraveled the braids and put it up into a Banana Clip.

Lavender Jamaican Black Castor Oil - Love it or Hate it?
Castor Oil Challenge Tuesday, November 24, 2009Lately, many have been inquiring as to whether or not I've tried the New Lavender Jamaican Black Castor Oil and how I like it. I'll be more than happy to answer those questions:
Have your tried the Lavender Jamaican Black Castor Oil?
- Yes, I have.
Do you like it?
- Yes!! It's a fabulous product :-)
How long have you been using it?
- For about 1-2 weeks now.
What do you like about it?
- The scent of course!! As soon as you open the bottle and take a sniff, you barely smell that over-barring burnt smokey scent. The lavender smell is very relaxing. I find that when I apply it, my hair smells very fresh and clean. The Lavender scent lingers for few hours. However, I've never had a problem with the original scent (I guess I just got used to it).
Would you replace the Original JBCO for the Lavender JBCO?
- To be honest, no. I think I will use both but alternate between the two. I've never had a problem with the original, so I don't see the need to replace it.
Overall, how would you rate the New Lavender Jamaican Black Castor Oil?
- I give it 2 thumbs up!! I also like how the label reads "No Salt". That's a bonus!

Tiara Smith, a fellow Hairlista Diva, is hosting a NO HEAT Challenge on Hairlista.com. She is inviting everyone to take part and motivate one another! Check out her YT video below:
This challenge will last for 6 months. You are to use absolutely NO HEAT!!! No flat iron, curling iron, hot comb, or blow dryer. If you are not aware, excessive use of heat is one of the most damaging things one can apply to the hair (especially to relaxed hair).
With that being said, we are going on a HEAT STRIKE! Put those hot tools down and let`s get healthier hair together.
I will definitely be joining this challenge :-)

Promises: Our Burdock Root Butter Cream is a light, water based leave-in for fine haired naturals, straight styles and those looking for a light penetrating moisturizer. It conditions and softens while nourishing the scalp. Leaves hair healthy, soft and supple!
Directions: Rub a small to moderate amount between palms and distribute throughout wet, damp or dry hair. Leave in and style.
Ingredients: Distilled Water, Olive Oil, Extracts of Burdock Root, Nettle and Oatstraw, MSM sulfur, Vegetable Glycerin, Wheat Extract, Cetearyl Alcohol, Cetyl Alcohol, Stearyl Alcohol, Stearalkonium Chloride, Vitamin E, Lactic Acid, Maltodextrin, Phenoxyethanol & Ethylhexylglycerin, Essential Oil Blend.
The Truth: I've been using Burdock Root for a little over a month now and I must say that it's a great "protein/silicone-free" moisturizer. It actually softens and moisturizes my hair so well without a greasy weighed down feeling. What I love most about this moisturizer, is that it has a perfect blend of some of my favorite ingredients i.e. Glycerin, Wheat, Fatty Alcohols, Stearalkonium Chloride etc. all working together to combat dryness and breakage. It has a very creamy texture but easily dissolves into the hair once applied. You don't need a lot of product to get the job done, it's very concentrated. The "citrus-y" scent kind of reminds me of lemons, however, the smell doesn't linger in the hair for too long. I've tried this moisturizer on wet, damp and dry hair and I must say that it's phenomenal for braid out's when done on wet/damp hair. The next day your hydrated waves will have a fierce pop with added softness & shine. I love it.
Tips: Great for baggying, braid outs, twist outs, buns and straight styles!
Price: $16 USD
Hairlicious Rating: (5/5) Excellent
