1. What is your name and where are you from Tiana, Tuscaloosa, AL 2. Why did you decide to go natural and how long have you been natural now? I had a lot of breakage in my hair due to perms and me not taking care of it. I’ve been natural for 1 year and 9 months. 3. How did you transition? I grew out my perm with sew-ins and cut off the last 3 inches of perm that was left. 4. What is your regimen? I wash every week. I regularly wear twist outs, the classic Afro puff, and sew-ins. 5. What are 4 products you use regularly? Pink Oil Moisturizer, carrot oil, olive oil, and Eco Styler Gel. 6. What advice would you give to someone transitioning or to a new natural? Keep your patience and dont ever go back to a perm! 7. Where can we find you? Instagram:@one_unique_girl  https://www.facebook.com/tiana.lavender.7?fref=ts https://twitter.com/Im_Uniqu eT

      1.   WATER 
 There is no better hydrator than water. Don't be shy, your hair loves it!
       *Tip : after conditioning, rinse with cool water to lock the moisture into your hair cuticles.
       *Tip : I use a (water + aloe vera juice ) spritzer to moisturize between washes

           2.   Coconut Oil

       3.   Jojoba Oil

Olive Oil

Olive oil is great for the hair. It contains the acting antioxidant vitamin E. It leaves your hair stronger and with a beautiful shine. Extra virgin olive oil is always the best to yous because it has been cold pressed and doesn't contain chemicals. You can find extra virgin olive oil just about anywhere these days. Check your grocery store or organic food stores. Here is a great pre-treatment you can follow: Treat it like a hot oil treatment. Sit it into a bowl of warm water for a few minutes Apply oil to dry hair. Be sure to cover scalp as well Afterwards, apply a shower cap and wrap it with a warm towel for approx. 30 min. (or cover with shower cap only and take a shower) Remove cap and preoceed to shampoo and condition as usual BTW, did I mention that you can buy some right here from this site?
