Eco Styler Custard

So in my last post I mentioned mixing my beloved aloe vera gel with my eco styler argan oil gel to stretch it out. Well I stumbled upon this video by MakeupanBeautyJunkie who made an eco styler custard! so you know I jumped up out of my bed and made mines! 

Now the actual mixing starts near the end of the video.

Eco Styler Custard:

1 cup EcoStyler gel 
1 tablespoon Extra Virgin Olive Oil
1 tablespoon Coconut Oil 
1 tablespoon Aloe Vera Gel

I Got out my Argan Eco Styler, Coconut Oil, Vitamin and more Argan Oil and my Aloe gel. I mixed the two oils equally to make the one tablespoon, cause I did not have Olive oil and I wanted to try out these two.

I do not have a hand mixer so I used .......my hands... and mixed all of them together. I did however add a bit more Aloe to mine

Custard!!!

I used an old honey jar.

I began twisting on freshly washed hair...... and let me tell you, I L.O.V.E this stuff. I just want to thank MakeupanBeautyJunkie for this man!!! THANK YOU!!! NO CRUNCH!!!! SHINE! SOFT, YEAH!!!!!

(please don't mind my food...and the bears)

My hair never go that dreaded crunch feel and it never got frizzy and tangled after a few days like it always got when I used plain gel.

These pics are six days later. By now, I would have to pull them out because they would have been a mess.

They shrunk but it's all good.

I'm going to see how long I can keep these twists in to really see how good the custard is.

Until then,

Peace.

So Twisted

Hello Hello!

So I recently got a package from my mom with some much needed hair products, but it looks like some unscrupulous person used out some of my Anwaar Conditioner!!!!!............ I got my Anwaar products and a sample size of Miss Jessies Baby Buttercreme (not seen a good review of this product but I will still try it) Shea Butter , Argan Oil and aloe vera gel! all of which were bought at this amazing store Earth Elements in Jamaica.

I decided to twist my hair this time and used my remaining Anwaar condish and a protein deep treatment I had (I can't remember the name)

All knotted up

I was cleaning out my closet when I found some old KeraCare products

So I decided to use this shampoo. I really could detangle my hair with this stuff, and my hair and scalp were not stripped. #approved. I had that shampoo, plus the salon size one in my closet for years and never used them.. hmmm

Putting in the deep treatment (plz look away from my skin. Swiss food and water did me dirty)

That Anwaar conditioner is the business. 

After using the KeraCare shampoo, my hair was coiling up all over

Next I added my coconut oil and then started twisting with the aloe vera gel. I need this gel in my life forever now....nothing else will do. My twists never felt this soft and I did not get the dreaded crunchy feel I normally get from other gels

 A lady in apartment building told me she loved my hair and asked if I would give it to her...now I hope that was just a case of lost in translation because otherwise...it would be creepy and now I must avoid her in the hallway.

I wore them for a week and pulled them out, this is second day hair since I pulled them out

Seeing that the gel container is small, I may just mix it with my Eco Styler gel and see how that works out for me.

So until then....

Peace.
