Her Hair, His Glory: The Little Ones

Matthew 19:14 But Jesus said, Suffer little children, and forbid them not, to come unto me: for of such is the kingdom of heaven.




Praise the Lord!

Here is my next introductory feature for Her Hair, His Glory! My little Ladies and their beautiful glory! I get a lot of my style ideas from two other blogs, KJBraids.blogspot.com and BeadsBraidsandbeyond.blogspot.com . Either I do some kind of variation or just get inspiration from them.

My daughters, ages 3 and 5, are very excited about their curly hair. Which makes mom utterly thrilled. My goal is to instill this love in them now, so that they will not have the internal struggle that I had growing up.

In general, I have no product of choice, which I hate by the way ! I am using what I have and evaluating the lasting effects on the styles i do for my girls.

As a routine:
1) We generally wash hair every 7-10 days , sometimes more often depending on circumstances
2) Deep conditioning every two or three weeks, it's something fun we do together. I lather their hair in the conditioner and let them sit under my hooded hair dryer for 10 minutes :)
3) Silk or satin scarves every night are a MUST! It really saves the hairstyle for the week.
4) Detangle right after washing hair and ALWAYS Style hair wet... It's just something I love to do and it saves me MEGA Time. I have more kids than hands :)
5) All styles I do are always two strand twists, flat twists, or finger curls


Products I've used for styling
1) Usually a leave- in conditioner, Sunsilk Anti-poof
2) Organic Root Stimulator Twist and Loc Gel
3) Herbal Essence Conditioner (Yes, I just leave it in ! ) Has great hold and shine for me :)
4) Miss Jessie's Curly Pudding and Curly Meringue
5) Kinky Curly Custard
**Product reviews coming soon

My prayer is to make styling and caring for their hair a wonderful experience, so that they cherish it, just as God does.

Ciao!

Her Hair, His Glory: Ebay Flowers and Headbands

Image
Praise the Lord ! Just wanted to show everyone a new hairstyle. My mother-in-law sent me some flowers and headbands from E-bay and I have been experimenting with them and different hairstyles. Tell me what you think! I love how the girl's hair turned out! This was a "curler" week. That means that I not only did a two-strand twist style, but I also put rollers on the ends of the hair to give them added body and curl. My product of choice for these styles is Twist and Loc gel on very wet, freshly shampooed hair. After styling, the ends were curled with rollers and then the style was set using a hood hair dryer. My girls were so excited and so was I! To maintain this style, simply tie a silk scarf over the hair at night and remove in the morning :) Easy! Total styling time ranged from 45 mins ~ 90 mins including washing, (deep) conditioning, detangling, and styling. Then dryer time was approximately 20 minutes. Just FYI for those who were wondering. I surveyed my neighbor,...

Hey there! So apparently I took a two year hiatus from blogging. Which I find interesting because, I haven't taken a "hiatus" from life! In these short two years, I have managed to have three more children...a set of twins and a singleton, help my husband finish his PhD (yes, by the way, I am now officially married to a Dr. and we now have more band-Aids in our house than I think any individual will EVER use! LOL ), become a free lance copywriter for a Malaysian company, perform the national anthem in our community parade of nation twice (oh , and I was officially asked to do it again this year! So excited!), and in between all that I managed to take care of my family. Anyway, just wanted let you know that I am BACK! And there is so much to catch up on ! So Follow Me... the day in the life of 2LT Mom :) Ciao!  2LT Mom This is a picture from a recent wedding we attended ... that's all six of my kiddos and our little friend, Red :)
