Yes - Twist outs! I'm in the process of "summerizing" my hair. When I cut my hair back in December I started wearing it straight... A LOT. Blow drying and flat ironing, at least every week or so. This was the main reason why I decided to try the Shea Moisture Deep Treatment Masque. I was deep treating my hair every time I washed it since I was frequently blow drying and flat ironing. However, all that has stopped and now I am trying "train" and tame those pieces that have become harder to curl (due to the excessive heat damage) - the back/bottom of my hair has straight ends.
I've been washing with Cantu's Moisturizing Shampoo and conditioning and styling my hair with the Masque. I Love LOVE LOVE this product. It is my main product staple right now. With my hectic schedule it definitely helps.
My twists are usually done in small 1" sections. This allows my curls to look more like my natural pattern:
(Please excuse the school bathroom pics!)
I have to say I'm missing my long hair these days...
What have you been up to?

The twist out looks really great! I am have been asking around for a good shea butter product. I use the Cantu products too, and love them, but my scalp is crying for some love. Any suggestions? See my latest post.
Wes!!!!!!! Will you be posting more now (keeping fingers crosesed that's a yes)? Your hair looks gorgeous! I wouldn't even know it was heat damaged.
I really LOVE the cut you have...I'm sure you miss the long hair days but this cut looks so cute on you...I love it!
I'll have to try out this product when I got to Target :)
Thx!!!
Who cut your hair this time? The cut looks great!
I check you blog at least once a week hoping for a post. We miss you!

I am so happy you're back posting. Missed your post.
If you're battling heat damaged or heat "trained" hair, and would like more of your natural curls to spring back up then try doing a deep protein treatment (instead of deep conditioning/moisturizing treatment). Taren916 on youtube has some great vids about her recent heat damage & protein treatments she did to revive her curls.
So glad you posted this review. Just saw this line and other lines in Target over the weekend and can't wait to try them all!
Hi ladies! I miss you all too!!!
Darn, I forgot to look for this while I was in the States last week.
Have you heard of/tried this product? http://www.growafrohairlong.com/index.html
Any thoughts? It's sold in large sizes so it's an investment; wonder if it's worth it.
I love all of Shea Moisture products! They work great for my hair and the prices are reasonable too.
Love the cut!
since we dont have Target up here in Toronto (yet.. soon!) when i went down to Deleware last i saw this and picked a jar up to try.
i LOOOOOVE this! so so so much! my hair has this shine that lasts!! and it feels a bit stronger (still dealing with some extreme heat damage due to a careless hairdresser). When Target makes its debut north of the border here, im hoping that this line comes along with it!
and your short hair looks great btw!
Your hair looks great. I love the cut!
It's B1G1 Free @ Walgreens this week so GO STOCK UP NOW!!
Just wanted to pop in and say I'm loving your blog. I don't remember how I stumbled upon it but I am getting married next year and need to figure out what to do with my hair which is also curly. I'll be reading!
Hi wes how did u acheive this look? Did u air dry, how did u apply the product?
Love the hair! I follow ur blog and am excited about seeing more updates with your new cut. My hair is about the same length,I'm almost 2yrs into being completely natural and have trouble with styling...please help!
Oooh I must get this!! Guess I'm taking a trip down to the states this weekend!!

hey long time, i can't believe you cut your hair. It looks nice. i like the shea products but the scent is a bit perfumy.
nice curls..i miss mine..had them straightened..
My hair hates this stuff but your hair looks great.
wish my hair would turn out like this!
I was online checking out different blogs and came across yours, I felt compelled to comment and tell you how informative and very well written it is !! Keep up the good work and I look forward to reading more soon !!
Wes, where are you? Come back.
Okay, I am so late on this, but I must say that I am dying to try Shea Moisture products! They are now available at my local Walgreens, and that's a plus because it seems that the good products are hard to come by. Will def be giving this a try. Thanks for the post! Your hair looks fab with or without heat damage! XOXO
