So, it's been a hot minute since I've done a hair care review and now that summer is rapidly approaching (even though the weather is a bit of schizophrenic), now is the time to shine. I'm going to review a variety of hair care products. While it'll be for everyone, my main focus will be for those with Type 3 and Type 4 hair.
Are you ready? LFG!

I often get comments on Bear's curly hair. He's never had a haircut, other than some trims here and there. I always tell them the same thing - you need to find products that work for your child's hair, and stick with them.
I try to do Bear's hair three times a week, and do it under 20 minutes, if possible. It used to be ten minutes, but as
I think I spoke about this detangling brush before but I think it's time to give it another applause.
Detangling Bear's hair is half-chore and half-no-thang. I try to do Bear's hair every couple of days so the amount of time to detangle his hair is minimal. Sometimes, I have to skip a couple of days and then we're both in for a very bad time.
After testing quite
Okay, so I wash my hair pretty often, say about 2-3 times a week. I wash Bear's hair just as much. Needless to say, we go through a lot of shampoo and conditioner.
While I have my splurge faves, I also want to share some really amazing cheap finds! Now for sake of what is actually considered to be cheap, we're going to go with products that are less
Several weeks ago, my old high-school friend, Stephanie, sent me a care package. I meant to do this review sooner but then the pandemic happened and I also got a job. Crazy.
Anyhoo, let's talk about the Monat hair care system. It's not available in any store. Not Ulta. Not Sephora. Not even Macy's or anything high-end.
I have to keep it real with y'all. Monat is a MLM
It's been a while since I've done a curly hair post so here it is!
I've been trying different products lately to get a desired curly hair look for Bear. He's never had his hair cut (though he has had trims), and I regularly wash and detangle his hair.
But sometimes, it takes more than water and a brush to get through it:
I decided to do something new
It's unofficially summertime and if your child has curly hair, it's a trying time! While our hair (Type 3 and Type 4) is rather resilient, it can also be rather problematic at times.
Here are some tips to keep your (and your child's!) hair looking fresh this summer, no matter what your hair type is:
Moisturize, moisturize, moisturize!
I cannot stress enough how important it is to keep your child's hair moisturized.
Hey Fam,
I know it's been about a minute since Bear and I have done one of these videos but hey, this was super fun to do! In this video, we used the vast majority of Shea Moisture products (as we are Shea Moisture brand ambassadors 2018).
We used the Coconut & Hibiscus Detangler, and the Coconut & Hibiscus Curling Cream. I washed Bear's hair with the Fragrance-Free Shampoo & Body
A question I get a lot (and from adults, surprisingly!) is how I manage Bear's curls. I would love to say it's just a magical thing and he naturally wakes up like that every morning, but no. I have to work at it.
Here is what I use and the various tips that could help you. I've also included my Bear's curly hair playlist for you to check out!
