Curly Hair Care: The Best and Worst Shampoo for Curly Hair

Previously on Curly Hair Care: The series was introduced!

Hey Guys!! Everyone's hair care starts with a little shampoo and conditioner. Whether you shower at night or in the morning, shampoo and conditioner are always the first products to hit your hair before styling. For girls with curly hair, the right shampoo can really make a difference in frizz control. Today I am going to talk about some shampoos and conditioners that I have found to be perfect for taming the wild beast.

Recommended Shampoo:
Garnier Fructis Fortifying Shampoo for Curly, Dry and Unmanageable Hair.
This shampoo comes in  a green bottle and the product is like a light green transparent color. The bottle sizes range from the normal to the huge ones with the pump. This product is my holy grail shampoo for curly hair. Personally, I had tried many shampoos that were designed to tame frizz but this is the only one that I noticed made even the slightest bit of difference. Reality is, the right shampoo alone is not going to tame frizz. However, it is a very good place to start. This shampoo feels light in the hair and does not leave any residue or sticky feeling after showering. In addition, it is not heavily scented. Some people may prefer a more odorous shampoo however, you must keep in mind that the chemicals used to make those flavors may not be the best for taming frizz. This shampoo contains several natural ingredients such as Aragon Oil which I find to really help fight frizz.  Although I do recommend using a conditioner in conjunction with the product, you could just lather up with this shampoo and be good for the day. This product is a drug store product and it is also available at local food stores and target so it is not that expensive and easy to locate. I will provide an online ordering option at the end of this post.

Recommended Conditioner:
This should not come as much of a suprise but the Garnier Fructis Fortifying Conditioner for Curly, Dry and Unmanagable Hair is most deff the conditioner I recommend to you. This product comes in a green opaque bottle and the actual product is white. It leaves the hair feeling so soft and it really helps keep the grid down in the morning. This works wonders in conjunction with the shampoo I  just talked about and again, it  is decently priced at target or your local food or drug store.

Shampoo and Conditioner I would. NOT Use:
The packaging of shampoo and conditioner usually state what kind of hair they are meant for. My biggest caution is not to purchase a shampoo for wavy hair if you have curu and Unmanagable hair. The stuff they put in it is different and it will not do as good of a job as a specific shampoo for your hair type. I know that that is kind of obvious but it's super easy to just go to the store and pick out a shampoo of a familiar brand and not look to closely at the label. Also, I know that many people think that in order to control their curly hair they need expensive shampoo and conditioner from that salon. Honestly, you do not. If you want to purchase the expansive stuff and it works for you and you can that's great but if you can't afford it, you are not doomed. The Garnier line of hair products is honestly so amazing that you really do not need to spend the money. After all, the more expensive Dosent have to mean the better.


Okay that wraps it up for this post. Now that spring is here and school is warping up I have so much more time to come back and blog and I am so much more inspired to do so so stay tuned for a new post very soon!

Project Runway 10-15-15 Recap Review

Previously on Project Runway: The designers gave members of the Project Runway crew a makeover. Hey guys! Welcome to this week's Project Runway Recap Review! We are getting closer and closer to fashion week each episode and the competition is getting tight. At this point, any of the designers could go home. Last week was packed with drama...but...its a new week, and a fresh slate, so lets get started. Challenge: The five remaining designers will make an outfit inspired by the New York City bridges (Queensborough, Brooklyn, Manhattan). The designers were assigned a bridge from the black bag of doom. Each designer created a textile with a 3-D printer that they had to incorporate into their garment. This is an Avant Garde challenge. Thoughts In The Workroom:  I'm not so sure what I think about 3-D printers...comment down below and let me know what you think about them (in general, not just in fashion). Candice made a good choice not using black again this week. Designers wh...

Special Post- Inner Beauty- The NJ Sharing Network

Hey guys! I have always intended for this blog to be totally dedicated to beauty and fashion, however, this post is going to be a bit different. Well, I mean, it does kind of fit because all the beauty on the outside does not matter if you are not a beautiful person on the inside (which I am sure that all of you are). Recently, my little sister (Linda) had a kidney transplant. She received her new kidney from an organization called the NJ Sharing Network. The NJ Sharing Network is an organization which connects donor families with recipients. I wanted to help give back to the organization that gave my little sister so much...so I created a team for their annual 5K run. My team is called Linda's Home Team. Last year, my team raised around $3000 dollars for the NJ Sharing Network. This year, we are hoping to surpass that. It would mean the world to me if you guys would follow the link below to my page and give a donation to my team. Every penny counts. I love all of my re...
