ACV rinse
So I have tried the Apple Cider Vinegar rinse before but I must say this past week after taking those twists out, I REALLY understand what the buzz is about! If your the type that's not into shampooing a lot or at all, I would definitely suggest this.
ACV mixed with water is sooo good for cleansing the scalp and eliminating build up! It also helps the products marinate with your hair and scalp :) This past Wednesday when I shampooed, I followed up with the ACV. After I rinsed that out, I followed up with a quick conditioner to get the smell out and then I used my deep conditioner. (I love that Pantene Pro-V Curls Series Deep Conditioner!)
After I was done with everything my hair felt soooo SOFT! Like I really felt the difference! If you haven't tried it make sure you do! A little ACV goes a long way so don't overload! I use like 1 tablespoon of ACV with maybe 2 cups of water...just a rough estimate.
Just a week
Well I only kept the twists in my hair for one week...idk why...I'm trying to think of something new to do. I took one picture of how it looks after I took the twists out. I wish I would have used my digital cam instead.
Maybe one day I'll try it again. Until then, this summer I'll be brainstorming!

Twists
Sooo I finally did the twist...Talk about tons of work! From washing to detangling to blow drying to twisting...MAN! Am I happy with the results? The back looks better than the front. The front of my hair is shorter than the rest and harder to twist so I'll have to keep some parts pinned back. Here are some pictures:
This was before I finished the front
Tons of shrinkage the next day
Not showing a full frontal view lmao
I got the products
About a week or two ago I ended up going to Target specifically looking to see if they had Miss Jessies or Jane Carters. Unfortunately they didn't so I just picked up a few other items that I needed. I also ordered shea butter from Pretty Dimples and it smells like strawberries :) Nice smooth consistency as well.
As you can see I finally found Giovanni's Direct Leave- In conditioner! YES! For my deep conditioning i decided to try the Pantene Pro-V Curly Series Deep Treatment and Neutrogena's Triple Moisture. The Tresemme' conditioner is pretty awesome for detangling and plus it was on sell! Over all I'm happy with my pick ups.

Urban Serenity
While I was on twitter this past week looking through the #naturalhair forum I came across Urban Serenity. On Urban Serenity you can buy some awesome accessories created by Ashly :) All for a reasonable price too! I ordered 4 pair of earrings for $3 each, and she gave me a pair for free! Another ultimate plus is that it didn't take a year and 5 months for her to actually ship out my order!
