How do you get your curls so defined? My hair is almost the exact texture as yours, I think, and I just can't seem to get them as wonderfully defined as yours. Your fro is my fro's role model.
Thanks darling!
I would say my hair is a type 4c. Which means no curl pattern, though I have some coily sections here and there. I get my curl definition from twist/braid outs. No wash and go’s over here. I’ve notice that my hair holds the most definition when its been moisturized properly. I don’t use any products that have hold in them. Though I did use Miss Jessie products when I first BC and they worked for curl definition.
So to recap water and a moisturizer(using Shea Moisture’s Curl Enhancing Smoothie at present) then I braid or twist my hair down. Once dry voila!
Hope this helps!

I hate it!! But I didn’t realized until last year that not everyone thinks of it as a negative word. Some people have no problem describing there hair as Nappy. But I think that unlike the other N-word you can use nappy in either a positive on a negative way depending on what you saying.
Last night my dad’s fiance came over for dinner. We’d been waiting a couple hours for her to show up. When she finally arrived, she seemed really relaxed for a person who’s rather tardy. She made it clear right off the bat that she’d just gotten a “fresh relaxer”. “My hair was starting to look…
