Customized Hair Care from Formulate

January 3, 2019 by Alisha 4 Comments

*I was provided with product for review.  All opinions are my own.*

I’ve been natural this go around for over 7 years!  And during this time I’ve probably tried just about every product none to man.  Thankfully I’ve finally mastered what works good for me!  Can I get a curly girl AMEN!  Even my 16yo has mastered her holy grail list of products to maintain her curls.  Which leads us to the youngest, crazy curly girl in our household.  

Morgan has the thickest and curliest hair out of the three of us.  What makes it even crazier is that due to us all having different textures and lengths, none of the same products work the same on us.  Morgan’s biggest issues are maintaining moisture and frizz control.  Now that she’s getting older sometimes she wants to wear her hair out and all I’m envisioning is my baby walking around looking like she got into a fight with humidity and it won!

 

When Formulate contacted me about doing on a review on their customized  shampoo and conditioner I was a bit skeptical.  First I wanted to make sure that it could be used on all hair textures because I’m lucky enough to have a very diverse group of readers and 2nd I was concerned about the price. But we’ll get to that part at the end! [Read more…]

Restore the Luster to Your Hair with Living Proof Timeless Collection from Ulta

February 29, 2016 by Alisha 2 Comments

*Disclosure:  This post was sponsored by Ulta as part of a Blog Blast Activation for Influence Central. I received complimentary products to facilitate my review.*

As much as I would like to tell Father Time to let Sybil (my hair) and I just be great, I realize that is no longer an option.  We constantly torture our hair in the name of beauty. As those pesky greys advance at an alarming rate, the gap between coloring our hair gets shorter and shorter and we find ourselves exposing our hair to chemical processes that strip our locks of their natural luster and splendor. We can enjoy the beautiful hair reminiscent of our youth, and protect our investment in it, too, using a regimen of products that cater to our hair’s current needs.

I’ve been coloring my hair for so many years that I didn’t realize how much grey hair I had until I started letting some of my purple hair grow out.  Lawd!!!  I had no clue all of that was hiding up underneath there.  And I promise you as I get older, those hairs grow at a rate that is quite possibly faster than the speed of light…seriously!

Since I can’t reverse time or slow down the aging process, I can at least use products on my hair that will help combat some of the stress I put on my tresses.  Available only at Ulta Beauty, the Living Proof Timeless Collection includes not only shampoo, conditioner and plumping mousse but it includes a pre-shampoo treatment as well.  All of my naturals can definitely relate to a pre-poo!  Even those with relaxed, naturally straight or multi-ethnic hair will love using a pre-treatment shampoo!  I also love that it’s formulated specifically for color treated hair!   [Read more…]

Jamaican Mango & Lime Pure Naturals

February 24, 2016 by Alisha Leave a Comment

This post brought to you by This Post brought to you by Jamaican Mango & Lime. The content and opinions expressed below are that of Coily Locks.

I’ve been natural for over 5 years…this time!  14 years ago I went natural and it was basically because 1) I was saving money for my upcoming wedding 2) I got tired of spending an entire Saturday in the hair salon 3) I wanted to try something new!  Back then the products available were sparse and not many salons in my area of Nashville knew how to deal with natural hair unless you were coming in for a blow-out.

Fast forward to today and the options are endless.  It’s so nice that I can just go into my favorite beauty supply store or even mass chain store and pick up products for my hair.  Along the way there have been several hits and misses when it comes to products, but I was happy when I discovered Jamaican Mango & Lime Pure Naturals.

Jamaican Mango & Lime Pure Naturals ​ is the line of moderately ­priced hair care products that deliver a “360 degree Moisture Miracle” of intense, lasting moisture to every, single strand of hair because its Moisture Miracle 360 °™ Blend ​ of Pure & Natural butters, oils, natural extracts & vitamins that penetrates & surrounds every dry, thirsty, overworked strand and locks in 360 degrees of intense, long-lasting moisture.  It’s nice when can find a line that carries everything you need to help your hair maintain moisture (which helps with length retention) as well as products for endless styling options.

LuxeOrganix Conditioning Shampoo Review & Giveaway

December 18, 2015 by Alisha 4 Comments

One of the first things I discovered when I went natural was just how bad using shampoo was for my coils.  It’s not that shampooing your hair is the worst thing but those that contain sulfates are what strip your hair of the oils that it actually needs to help keep it healthy.  And if you’re like me with purple hair, then those sulfates will not only strip the oils but also the color!  Yea…ask me how I know!  -_- lol

I recently had a chance to try out LuxeOrganix Cleansing Conditioner Cowash and I LOVED it.  Refresh your hair and liberate it from the daily grind of everyday shampooing, while igniting your senses with this gentle, luxurious Refreshing Mint #CoWash Cleansing Conditioner. Enhanced with natural essential oils and botanicals that won’t strip your hair, color or scalp. Designed to protect and preserve your hair’s natural oils, while still gently cleansing and providing your hair with enhanced moisture. Hair styling becomes easier with this premium cowashing treatment. Woman Owned Company, Made in the USA with the highest quality ingredients.

I usually just cowash my hair with regular conditioner so I was pretty excited to try out this conditioner.  I recently got a sew-in and it was suggested by my friend Maria to just use conditioner to cleanse the hair. Here’s how I was looking before: [Read more…]
