I agree I think too many leave ins...I have 4a hair I think(now that have seen the blog for 4a) I use the Kimmyatube leave in recipe (youtube) and then brush it back w/ water. I tie a silk scarf tightly around my hair. If I must use gel on edges I use IC Fantasia. The Ecostyler makes my hair too hard

Yes, indeed! I actually made her recipe, the one with the KCKT, aloe vera, etc, and haven't tried it yet. I need the power of the EcoStyler for this hair, girl!

Ooops I didn't see the pic above.....Cute I'm glad it worked...just remember when applying products less is sometimes more

Thanks so much, drkc01!

Which products did you use?

Hi, closer; I used Cantu shea butter leave-in, Taalia Waajid Mist Bodifyer, HS 14n1, and Giovanni Direct leave in, and a little castor oil. Too much, I know now!

Hi op(i'm so slow at reading smtimes) but i was gonna say your hair looks like mine before i slick it down. Now i see you have deeper and more waves than me naturally.
You did a great job both times (you just didn't know it). The first time you could have wet tht hair down (w/spray bttle) and layed it down..scarf and go (even though you probably had too much product)
Congrats "Major accomplishment"!

Cool; yeah, BlaqBella, I thought about that, but considering all the products, I just wanted to start over! Thanks; it's good to know that it wasn't a total fail the first time like I thought it was!!

Your hair looks just like mine in a wet bun and when mine looks like that I usually think it looks cute! LoL!

ROFL, Mdmommy99!

Pretty! Your hair looks really nice.

Thanks very much, Miss Tress!

It turned out great! What did you do? Have you tried with just ur hair too?

Thanks, Jina Ricci! I went back in and redid it with a few squirts of HS 14n1, a few squirts of setting lotion, and the EcoStyler, and just in case, some Softee gel, too! I haven't tried it with just my hair since I'm transitioning and still have about 3-4 inches of relaxed hair. I saw a bun tutorial where the lady wrapped her hair around and made a nice bun, but I haven't tried that yet. BTW, your hair is Gorgeous!
