Today’s hair of the day is also a review on a great new product that I had the pleasure of trying. I was gifted this product for being a runner-up in a giveaway that All Things Curly had a few weeks ago.
This great product that I want to talk about is Coco Curls styling aid cream. OMG this stuff is so awesome. It has a nice creamy consistency and the smell is out of this world. It’s like a sweet combination of vanilla, honey and creme brulee all rolled up together!
I was starting to get tired of doing the same ol’ wash-n-go or twist out, so I decided to revisit a style that I did a lot when I first BC’d (big chopped). I washed and conditioned my hair then applied my Giovanni direct leave-in condition, massaged my scalp with my JBCO (Jamaican Black Castor Oil) then applied a small amount of natty moist all over my hair.
Next I took small sections of my hair to work with and applied the Coco Curls styling aid cream and finger coiled my hair. I made sure that each section was damp before I applied the cream. This makes it easy to help coil the hair.
The next day I uncoiled each finger coil and then wore them out like that. I always like them as they get older. To refresh them each day, I apply a bit of jojoba oil in the palm of my hand and gently rub all over. Once in the shower, I re-wet my hair petty good then shake all the excess water and roll out! I really love how this style turned out and I’m even more impressed with how well the Coco Curls cream did as a moisturizer and a styler. Check out the pics below to see how well the oils held up and how defined they are. This definitely a product I plan to purchase in the future.
