My last update consisted of me ranting about how I’m going to start straightening my hair more… Well, guess what? After all the noise I made I straightened my hair once… for my birthday. It’s just been so much easier for me to rock a co-washed ponytail lately. It only takes 5 minutes, and I just can’t resist… And I’ve been too lazy to do anything else
The only other staple hairstyle that I’ve been wearing is a flat twistout (pictured below)… Maybe about once or twice a week. Sometimes it turns out great, other times it looks like… blah. But it always looks better than the ponytail, lol.
One issue that I’m dealing with is if I should attempt to define my curls or leave them as is. My best friend suggested that I use a list of products and some scrunching method. Honestly, I don’t have the time and it seems like too much work. My fro hairstyle looks fine too me… I’m really in love with it! It takes me all of 5 minutes to do my wash and go in the shower, but I might give her suggestion a try at least once in the future.
Last, I’m still dealing with single strand knots. The only solutions I know to combat them are too keep my hair stretched or start using heat. Decisions, Decisions. And before I forget… HairMilk.com is going to undergo a huge change sometime during the first quarter of next year. That means more frequent postings, features, videos, and a few other things So stay tuned! For now… Please join me on Twitter @hairmilk… And that means I’m actually tweeting and not just using it for an additional blog feed ( *coughs*, that last one was for Tocarra. Ha Ha!).

The Review I’ve been walking past this conditioner for years despite the great reviews I read about it. But being on a self-imposed hair budget made me reconsider. And I’m so glad I did… because this hair product has quickly become one of my staples.
I strictly use this conditioner for daily co-washing (skip the shampoo step and apply conditioner), and it delivers! It smells great, moisturizes my hair, and produces amazing curl definition without any work on my part. The bottle design is perfect for getting every little drop of your 79 cents out, and the consistency is just right for me. It’s not thick like Aussie Moist Conditioner, but not as runny as its Suave’s Natural counterpart. It’s sort of in the middle which makes it easy to apply to my hair.
Last, for this conditioner to not contain any “cones”, it provides amazing slip. The other ingredients may not pack a big punch, but I knew what I was getting into when I purchased it… so no complaints here. If you co-wash your hair often, I highly recommend VO5 Moisture Milks conditioner.
