ROCKING A FEDORA HAT WITH MY TWA!

TWA hair

First of all, "what is a TWA you say"? To be honest, I learned what this terminology meant only a few weeks ago. I never knew what it meant specifically, I just gathered after a while, that it had to do with shorter natural hair. Finally after seeing this term being used so much  I wanted to really know what it meant. Here it is: T-Teenie, W-Weenie, A-Afro. Tweenie, weenie, Afro  What does that mean to us natural chicas'? Tons of wash and go's, paired with a ton of Gel. What does that equal? In the winter time, it means a head cold. Do I want a head cold? Absolutely not!

With that being said, I decided to begin finding other ways to grow out my TWA the healthy way, without it breaking off in the cold, as well as me getting a head cold from trying to look decent. That's when I first considered wearing a Fedora as a great alternative. Fedora's are a great alternative in the Fall/ Winter months as they provide protection from the cold weather. You can moisturize your hair to the fullest, throw on a stylish fedora hat, and be out the door within ten minutes. It's so quick simple, and healthier.

Do you use Fedora's or any other types of hats as protective styling?
If so what types?
What other protective styling methods do you use for you hair in the winter?

MY NATURAL HAIR CARE REGIMEN

Ooooyyy! There are so many products out there. Now with the big boom of Curl Box, I don't know what to do. The thought of having a monthly service that sends you all the newest, cutting edge products for natural hair is amazing. However, when you have a closet full of products ,what do you do? I was able to narrow my regimen and products usage down to a few things that I will share with you.

 First and for most, let me start off by telling you that I have always taken vitamins for my hair. Now that my hair is natural, I almost feel a sense of wanting to do even better by my hair. Compared to before, I have now added MSM, and Horsetail to my regimen of vitamins that I take daily for my hair care. 

Those are the vitamins that I use...now for the products...I use Tresemme Naturals nourishing conditioner to co-wash, and condition my hair. I Co-wash twice a week, and deep condition with it or something else once a week as well. When I need to clarify my hair, I use V05 Clarifying shampoo. I clarify my hair once a month to get all the build-up off of my scalp, and start anew. To style I will often use Cantu's Shea butter, Doo Gro growth oil, as well as Eco styler Gel With Olive Oil. 

Those are the products that I use, and this is typically the end result...

So, what do you think?

Do you use any of these products?
Do you take vitamins for your hair?
Have you seen any difference while on the pills?

Let me know!
