For those of you who may have misplaced the "steps to styling" your curly hair down, here you go!


1. Section hair

2. Quarter size gel in each section

3. Rake gel in, while holding on to the ends of the raked section; shake the hair.

4.Clip and dry

5. De-crunch

MOVING

I have mixed emotion on this... My husband is being re-located to Seattle Wshington we will be moving in a matter of weeks. I am excited for the new adventure and to meet new curly's on that side o f the conitient! But, I will miss all of those who have been a part of my life here in Virginia.
I will be coming back to virginia every 10 weeks to do haircuts!!! I can't leave my curly's stranded. For some of my clients it has been 7+ years and I truely would miss not seeing them. Plus, our move west is suppose to be short term 2-3 year deal?! Then potentially be back.
I already have my return date of Nov. 7-9 IF things turn out, I will have a curl gala on the 7th. Otherwise, I'll be working in the salon on the 8 and 9th. I am in search of an assistant. If anyone knows of someone interested in curly hair and assisting; I'd love to meet her/him.

Once I get settled in our new place I will post my views on Sodium Laurel Sulfate and other such ingredients in products that are not so good for the hair.

From one Washington area to the next!! Here we come!
