I tried a twist out using Curl Prep Sweet Buttah and although it came out pretty defined and moisturized, it was too frizzy from my take down.  I wore a wig for a few days after setting my hair in twists and took down the twists after 3 days.  I should have separated the twists more...

Have you ever wanted to try Ayurvedic herbs on your hair, but you do not want to buy or mix your own herbs?  I have a solution, an Ayurvedic Herb Shampoo Bar.  I finally tried my Chargin Valley shampoo bar sample and it was surprisingly great.  It lathered, way more than I expected, and...
