No Curl Friend Of Mine #curlfriends

Press Sample.  All opinions are my own.
Hello, Fireflies!

There are many types of curly hair, from waves to kinky - and I have about 3 or 4 types on my head alone!  I have curly ringlets that go from my temple, all the way around the nape of my neck and up to the other temple.  The next layer up is curly, but not as tight - more like 1/2 inch barrel curls.  The curls get a little looser until it reaches the crown of my head, where the hair that grows out isn't curly at all, really, just wavy. All of it is thick, almost coarse, and heavy.  My hairdresser says I have enough hair for three people!

So, I know the difficulties of finding the right curl product.

Hello, Fireflies!

Hair curlers, you might ask? But you already have curly hair! Why on earth would you review hair curlers?

Curvaceous Curls! #Redken

Press Samples.  All opinions are my own.
Hello, Fireflies!

When I was growing up in the '70's, I wanted Farrah Fawcett winged hair.  Desperately.  I didn't appreciate or understand how to take care of my weird hair - so thick, with tight coils at the nape of my neck, loosening to ringlets and then waves near the crown.  Since then, there's been a proliferation of moisturizing and curl-loving hair products, I'm happy to say.  Some work better for my type of hair than others, because not all curls are the same.  So, I was happy when Redken sent me some products that I think were tailor-made for my hair!

I Love My Curls, But Sometimes I Want To See A #NuMe

Hello, Fireflies!

I love my curls, but that doesn't mean I don't want to change things up now and again.  I've tried different tools to change my hair, but I'm loving the NuMe Silhouette straightener - not only because it works, but because of some really thoughtful design elements that went into it!

My Curls Are Ready To Party! #royallockshaircare


Press Sample.  All opinions are my own.
Hello, Fireflies!

Today's post is for the curlygirls like me!  Whenever I wear my hair in it's naturally curly state, I may only get one or MAYBE two days of it looking smooth before the curls break apart too much.  Sometimes, a little spritz of water can help put them back together, but then you're introducing humidity which can induce frizz.  I've tried different products over the years to bring life back to 2nd or 3rd day curls, but I think I've found the best one yet, and it's time for a party!

My Curls Deserve To Be Treated Like Royalty! #curlyhair


Press Sample.  All opinions are my own.
Hello, Fireflies!

Having grown up with thick, curly hair in the 80's, I may not have needed as much Aqua Net as the other girls to get big hair, but it was frustrating trying to find products that calmed my frizz and held my curls.  There just wasn't anything available in the drugstore that was made for curly hair.  Consequently, I am always on the hunt for that Holy Grail curly hair product that gives me soft, defined curls - with no crunch, and no frizz.  I may have found it in Royal Locks Pro Curl Cream!
