*DETAILS*
This is my natural hair, no extensions added. My hair was recently blow dried. Basically, I braided my hair at night into four braids, and then pinned to the sides so that the hair stays stretched out. I tied my hair down, and then left it tied down overnight. I only applied a small amount of cantu shea butter, the smaller the amount of product the more fluffier the hair is, and I looove BIG hair.

Alicia is it possible for you to comment or do a video on how u maintain your hair when you work out?

[aliciajamesmusic]

@keelioness I work out with my hair in braids, knots or twist.

[fizziedama]

hw do u keep your ends frm drying while its blown out? What moisturizer do u use bcz my hair is so curly, when i blow dry it and try to put cream on it, it gets bck to curly. thx

[aliciajamesmusic]

@fizziedama I use Cantu Shea Butter Leave In. When my hair is blown out, I usually do braid outs, twist outs, bantu knot outs, so when I apply the moisturizer, I apply a small amount to the hair, twist it up, and let it set overnight. I also apply oil to my hair every night.

Hey Lady!! Did you put a heat protectant on before blow drying?? I ask because the hair looks so conditioned and healthy, not dried and crispy :o) I would like to try this!

[aliciajamesmusic]

@nkreseknowledge Thank you! Yes! I use Cantu Shea Butter Leave In Conditioning Repair Cream!

I love our hair texture!! I'm not into bone straight look....looks good on people born with it naturally.

You make the most simple things look so beautiful and elegant...and people act like natural hair is soooo complicated.

The four pinned up braids is a hairstyle in and of itself.

I think I've hit the LIKE button 60 times !! you have ABSOLUTELY BEAUTIFUL HAIR ! I'm having a set back on my hair right now and you're my main inspiration on Youtube =)

[EnChristosEime4life]

Your hair is really healthy and i see that it looks like you've just had another growth spirt too. Looking at your roots. I have learned that massaging the scalp with an essential oils mixture really boosts hair growth.
