Skuurpot: My hair meets Dr. Miracle's Curl Care range

I love my hair and I have always worn it natural. I must confess that I am not a die hard #naturalista nor do I dedicate my time to the #teamnaturalclub.  Without digressing too much from the point of this post, I believe that every woman has the right to wear her hair however she wants to as long as she is enlightened. I discovered a long time ago that straight hair/weaves do not work for my look so I decided to stay natural. The power in my hair is that it has its own personality. I love watching it go through its different phases. Many black women are concerned about the manageability of natural hair. I totally believe that once you understand your crown, then it wont be that difficult to manage. It might just surprise you. A good regimen and care for your locks, and your hair will be alive and smoking. Not all products work the same for all hair so it is important that you discover what works for your hair. I have extremely thick thirsty hair so it needs optimum moisture. I am not fussy about hair growth nor do I find myself drooling over curly hair to a point that I cannot accept the natural state of my hair. In my opinion, over-classifying our hair types falls within the same region as when we classify our hues (yellow bone etc...).

I came across the Dr Miracle's Curl Care Range and decided to give it a try. What attracted me to the  product was the fact that it is Sulphate and Paraben free and has all the natural products like jojoba and coconut oil. The packaging looks really good compared to the usual Dr Miracle packaging. The entire range pretty much has every product you would need for a complete regimen but I decided to purchased the Rehydrating Shampoo, Nourishing Conditioner and the Soft Hold Creme. I also wanted to buy the Weightless Moisturising Creme but they did not have any in stock (It is quite difficult to get as I looked at different clicks stores and still out of stock).

The product smells really good and I couldn't wait to get it into my hair. Starting off with the shampoo, I loved the feeling on my hair and the smell was divine. It has a menthol scent which can be felt on the skull, you know, the tingly kind of feeling? After rinsing my hair I was delighted that my hair was not stripped which is great for me. I do not shampoo but cowash my hair because most shampoos strip my hair of its moisture. My hair totally loved this shampoo and it is for keeps.

After rinsing my hair and gently towel drying it, I put a fair amount of the Nourishing Conditioner on my hair. I normally stay between 15 and 20 minutes with my conditioner but this experience was quite uncomfortable. The tingling hair on my sculpt was unbearable. I know some people who would love the feeling but it is not for me. I really need to find a way to bear it out if I am to continue using this conditioner. After rinsing, I quickly forgot about my tingling woes as my hair felt awesome.

The Hold Creme is meant to be applied while hair is wet and is designed to hold and define curls. I applied a fair amount on my hair (it is very thick so use sparingly) from root to top. My twist out was defined and my hair looked healthy and felt soft.

PS: While I was twisting my hair, I noticed cute tinsy winsy curls, you know, the kinky kinda curls? I know this could mean something big to someone out there. But they look super cute.

These products are for keeps and I am glad I stumbled across them.

Does my English bother you?

Is my writing not good enough for you? Quite frankly, I write how I speak and maybe that is good enough for me. English has never been my natal tongue so how can I be expected to perfect this language which was never part of my roots? You judge me based on my chains? English has been forced into our DNA so bad that we have no other reason but to utilise it; but can we please utilise it on our own terms? Can I write however I want with no one telling me that the Queen will not be pleased with how I am butchering her language? Well, I guess they should have thought about this moment before they turned us into pseudo-whatchamacallit - I shall slay this language for all my intended purposes. I write how I speak and that's ok!
