Why does your hair get all of the attention?

You have probably spent countless hours and dollars on natural hair techniques and products, but what about your skin? If you're trying to drink more water and eat healthier, kudos to you! But like hair, skin needs nourishment inside AND out.


If you rely on lotion to moisturize your skin, I'm sad to tell you that's not enough. In fact, you might be harming your skin, especially if you use lotions whose ingredients are varied and hard to pronounce. If you're wondering why, think about it this way...lotion is to skin what conditioner is to hair. So, if you're careful about what you put on your hair, why wouldn't you be careful about what you put on your skin?

With that in mind, Wash Day has finally launched an all-natural soap line! All soaps are made by me and contain only the same oils and butters you find in all-natural hair products! Some are scented. Others are not! 
And they feel so good on the skin!



If you haven't stopped by the Wash Day Etsy site in a while, there are some minor changes, but three of several new soaps to be posted weekly are there for you to try! And, stay tuned because new batches of soap are made every Saturday and will be uploaded as soon as they're ready for the public!

Hair's Summer!

The time has arrived to unleash the kinks and curls and wear your hair OUT! Sometimes, ye' old twist-out can get tired, boring and predictable so try this on for size!

I've debated having layers cut in my hair, but have figured out a way to manipulate my hair to make it look like I have layers when I actually don't! And it freshens up the twist-out look!


So, I washed and conditioned my hair as usual prior to twisting finger-size sections of hair. The catch is, I did bantu knots on the top half of my hair and the bottom is just regular two-strand twists. I let it dry for two days (that's my average drying time now) and gently untwisted. BUT, I didn't separate them. And if you're digging my shine, I get maximum shine without the greasy feel via my Bounce Butter. Did I forget to mention that Bounce Butter will maintain your curls and coils for a full week without reapplication and your hair will move with every step you take?! If you haven't gotten your hands on it yet, take it from me, Bounce Butter is a summer must-have!

Bounce Butter is available at https://www.etsy.com/shop/HairProducts.
And stay tuned. I've been cranking out more soaps!
