So You Want More Bounce In Your Curls?

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! Know thy

This is Why Aunt Jackie's Might Be Right For You (Kids Edition)

As I continue to experiment with Bear's hair, I love trying new products. I've heard a lot of great things about the Aunt Jackie's brand so I decided to give it a whirl for both me and Bear. The results weren't all that great for me but for Bear, it was a miracle worker. Let's get right into it. Consistency: It's a cream so it's thick. Smell: Very light. Honestly, there really isn’t

Is Curl Renew Good for Your 'Do?

I recently tried Curl Renew on Bear's hair in another attempt to see what is the best spray for his curls and potential frizz. I have to admit, this is a fun experiment because his curls are well, super curly and there are a lot of products on the market for him. (So, all you curly-haired fans, this is a treat for you!) Now we know the player, let's review

Is Cantu Amazing For Your Curls?

Cantu Beauty has a new (well, new to me) product in their line that I happily test-drove on Bear's hair. I did use the product on my hair but I don't think I had the same results as his (and when I mean by the same as in my hair still frizzed up pretty bad). Now, I have to say this before you read on, Los Angeles (and pretty much

Irresistible Pretty Boy on Fleek: Sensational Curly Hair #biracial #mixed #hair #productreview

  I've been getting a lot of questions on Bear's hair care routine and the products I use. Since I'm often trying new products on his hair, I decide to share my tips, tricks, (and some misses) as well as rave about some products I've used. Let's go! Figure out your child's hair type. Biracial/mixed and curly hair often comes in different curl patterns and textures. Once you determine your child's

This is Why L’Oreal’s EverCurl is the Paramount

[caption id="" align="aligncenter" width="100"] Click on the picture to purchase [/caption] So, I've been on the search for the perfect shampoo for Bear. He has super curly hair. If I had to put him into a category, it'll be 3A/3B hair type. This is a child who does a lot of things with his hair - he pulls on it, he wipes his dirty hands on it, he has no qualms

Biracial Hair Care Review: Is As I Am Full of Magic?

Let me begin with a preface for those who are new to the blog: I often use hair care products that wouldn't be typically geared to biracial/mixed and/or curly hair. I want to show what products work best for curly hair as well as what I typically have in my armory. It's one of the benefits of being a naturalista - whatever I use on my hair, I can

Why Bear’s Hair is full of Wonderful

So, I have a lot to catch up on this blog. Yeah, believe it or not, despite how often I post, I actually have a bit of a backlog! I guess I'm full of ideas (or full of it, take your pick). Never mind that! This is a long-awaited video of Bear's shampoo and deep condition routine. I was actually requested this video a while ago but I could never

Biracial/Mixed Hair Care Review: Curl Junkie

This is a special review because I'm not reviewing a typical product one would use on children's hair. I'm in the experimental phase with Bear's hair, however, and as long as he's still little, I'm going to test drive what works on his hair and what doesn't. (I purchased this from CurlMart so even though the above link is Amazon, you might find a better deal at CurlMart.)  Anyway, let's get
