I find it unfortunate that we, black women, have to explain to the masses our hair decisions.
SMH honestly!!!!. and its not even a big deal!

i skipped around that vid for a shot of gorgeously relaxed hair now that she's no longer natural. I don't think she's into hair care, but into wig care

I have been meaning to thank you about tipping me off to the Oyin Hair Dew, GSO, and Oyin Whipped Pudding Combo!
Wow! Moisture on Ten!!
Thank you!
Ummm... DoDo & MileHighDiva - PLEASE share! I absolutely adore oyin products, and if there's a way I can mix my beloved hair dew with some grapseed oil and the whipped pudding, PLEASE share!

I'm sitting here waiting!
The thing about watching all of these natural hair 'gurus' on YouTube, is that you are seeing only what they want you to see, which is a very controlled image. Every video that has been uploaded has been planned and edited to create a specific kind of content. You watch a video of someone doing a twist out, and their hair is just soo easy, so shiny, so full, so soft looking; but, for all you know, their hair feels crispy, it took them forever to get good enough results that were worth filming, it didn't last as long as they said it did, etc.
When you go natural and expect everything to just work for you--instantly--in the way that these videos make it seem like it does (and it doesn't! it takes lots of practice and patience) it's easy to become disillusioned. You watch a video of a wash and go, and the woman says her hair is soft and moisturized, and is plugging products from left to right, but what she doesn't mention is her hair feels broken dreams and she's only pushing those products b/c she's getting paid to. It's a lot of smoke and mirrors.
Not everyone is out there creating a fantasy that only exists when a camera is on. Just be realistic when it comes to your hair. Even on here, you can't really compare yourself to someone who has years of experience under their belt, if you have only just started. There is no shortcut for something like that. And that goes for all heads of hair, not just natural hair.

I just layer the products. I apply Oyin Hair Dew, then Grape seed oil, and afterwards seal the ends with the Oyin Whipped Pudding. The softness is amazing!
I don't have any Oyin pudding. Maybe APB pudding will work? DoDo MileHighDiva, thanks for sharing.
I can't tell you how many women I've met that can't do anything with their hair and want to go back go relaxing. I wish I could do public presentations about natural hairstyles that anyone can do. But I have no idea if that's legal with out a come stolons license.
