Vacation Hair

I am not sure what other people do with their natural hair on vacation but I usually opt for twists with extensions.  Well, for my last trip (a cruise) I decided to wear my hair out and it was a hot mess.  My hair was in a cute twist out for the day of boarding but by the end of day one it was a shrunken afro and not the look I wanted.  I did not bring a ton of products with me since it was unexpected.  I have been to the beach for vacation in the winter and had no problems with my hair getting dried out.  For my last winter vacation to the beach I had used Crisco.  For this trip I used Miss Jessie’s Baby Buttercreme and John Frieda gel.

I washed my hair with conditioner while on the cruise and hoped that would help.  It didn’t.  My hair was looking more dried out after the cowash.  I gave up and put my hair in puffs and buns for the rest of the trip since I had the foresight to take a banana clip and some Marley hair.

If you have some tips for beach hair that does not shrink up to a tiny afro, let me know.
