I met the lovely Levine at Natural Hair Week a few days ago and she is now featuring on my blog!

I asked her about the products she uses:
I don’t use many products in my hair, I shampoo with any non-sulphate shampoo (right now I'm testing out Cantu naturals creamy shampoo), and then I do the LOC method for moisture.
This is a texture shot of her hair when it's completely dry.

I work on damp hair and I use Shea Moistures raw Shea butter restorative conditioner, then seal that with coconut oil, then I add a bit of Shea butter for softness and style!
I know that it's really expensive to get Shea Moisture products in the UK (I/my friends buy a ton load when we’re in America lol) so an alternative is the Cantu leave in repair cream or the Dark and Lovely Amla conditioner.
Also, I would not recommend anyone with thick hair ( mine is quite thin, although I'm a master at disguising it!) to use coconut oil, its way too light! In the same way, those with thin hair like mine should stick to lighter oils, only heavy oils , e.g olive oil in the winter.The picture on the right is a twist-out, her #1 fave style!

"Don't over manipulate your hair."
This young lady certainly takes care of her hair. Her dedication and time spent on making sure that she does it the proper way says a lot about her character...Her hair resembles the natural and real person she is > as seen in her photos. I'm a man so I wouldn't use so many products on my hair but I understand its a lady thing so I wouldn't totally get it. I just hope her bed/pillows doesn't get oily cause of the hair products she uses. Otherwise she's beautiful and I love her hair.

DeleteA lot of time, care and product goes into taking care of natural hair, depending on thickness and texture but she is doing a great job at that! I usually wrap my hair with a silk scarf at night to keep the product away from my pillow and to seal in moisture. It really does work! She really is a lovely girl :)
