Three things

[pinkchocolatedaisy]

What three things (be it a product or technique) have "saved' your hair or improved it or benefited you in your hair journey?

I'll start:

1. Bunning. At first this was a challenge for me but then I realized I have to properly and completely detangle my hair (and for me that meant to not give up washing/dc-ing in sections)....

...which brings me to my next item

2. Using a seamless comb

3. My beloved Joico Moisture Recovery treatment balm for DCs.


My hair is softer, I have no knots or tanlges and soo moisturized.

So, what are you three?

3. Coconut Oil (love it!!)

i wouldnt say these things saved my hair but they help my hair.

1: shea butter. there are several other moisturizers that i love but shea butter is the best.
