⚠️New Video Alert⚠️ Recorded a requested video on my routine using my own DIY mixes which, you can find on my YouTube channel (link in bio). So I start of washing my Hair with my DIY Raw African Black Soap Shampoo, hydrated my curls with a DIY caramel hair softener mix, and then proceed to do the LOC method using my DIY Spray/Cream leave in conditioner, sealed with my DIY coffee bean infused almond oil and finish with setting this braid out with my Hibiscus Flax Seed Gel. All my recipes can be found on my YouTube channel as well. • • #diy #diyhaircar #diyproducts #rawafricansoap #africanblacksoap #naturalshampoo #africanblacksoapshampoo #diyleaveinconditioner #leaveinconditioner #flaxseedgel #fsg #hibiscusflaxseedgel #teamnatural #teamnaturalhair #naturalhair #naturalhaircare #braidout #curls #melanin #african #blackgirlmagic #healthyhair #healthyhaircare #naturalhaircare #diyhaircare #diyhaircaretips #curlygirl #curly #kinks #coils
Whenever I’m feeling my #African Roots extra hard I #bantuknot my hair. I Love this style that originates from the Zulu people. After a few days I rock a Bantu Knot out: 2 for 1 winning!! • • #teamnatural #naturalhair #teamnaturalhair #bantuknots #africanpride #myafrica #melanin #teammelanin #melaninskin #naturalhairstyle #protectivestyle #naturalhair_ #teamnatural_ #bantu #zuluknots #africanhairstyles #hairstyles #protectivestyles #protectivestylesfornaturalhair #3c #4a #kinkycurly #kinky #kinks #curls #curly #curlyhair
2nd day of the year. On my daily rotating list of gratitude I had #espresso ☕️. Wishing you all a wonderful New Year of gratitude in 2021. Anyone else a coffee lover? • • #teamnatural #naturalhair #teamnaturalhair #natural #kinkycurlyhair #kinkycurly #longhair #longnaturalhair #curls #curly #coffee #newyear #lhdc #melanin #african #3c #4a #washandgo #curlygirl #curlyhairdontcare #curlyhaired #naturalcurls #naturalhaircommunity #naturalhairdaily #naturalhairstyles
⚠️New Video Alert⚠️ I have a simple Flaxseed Gel (FSG) Recipe on my YouTube Channel that involves just TWO main ingredients. Flaxseed gel not only provides a crunchy-less and sticky-less hold but also provided shine along with nourishment to the hair and scalp thanks to its Omega 3 fatty acid and Vitamin B content. It can even help with scalp irritations and itchiness! My recipe involves 🌹 💦 and 🌰 oil. Check out the full video for all the details, Maicurlies! • • #flaxseedgel #fsg #flaxseed #rosewater #gel #hairgel #naturalhairgel #diyhairgel #diygel #teamnatural #naturalhaircare #diyhaircare #teamnaturalhair #teamnaturalhair_ #healthy_hair_journey #melanin #3c #4a #4b #4c #kinkyhair #kinkycurly #kinkychicks #natural #teamnaturals #hair #curls #blackhair #blackhaircare #naturalhair
and while it doesn’t involve a lot of ingredients, it is still packed with nourishment for the hair AND still does an excellent job at providing shine, definition and hold (without any crunchiness). I have a few videos and posts about other FSG recipes that are more intricate and involve a lot more ingredients here and even a protein FSG to make a strengthening Gel). They also include more details about the benefits of using FSG for the hair (you know I have to give props to the fact that this gel is ALL natural, doesn’t include any chemicals and actually provides nourishment to the hair)! FSG has a relatively short shelf life in general and should ALWAYS be stored in the fridge, especially since I don’t use preservatives, nor do I add ingredients that help to extend the shelf life in this particular recipe (to keep it simple).
Finding my zone and allowing myself to flourish and grow ✨ • • #teamnatural #naturalhair #teamnaturalhair #art #fluidart #artist #acrylicpainting #acrylicart #acrylicabstract #acrylicabstractpainting #acrylicabstract #melanin #melaninpoppin #melaninqueen #brownskingirl #brownskinbeauty #african #africanartist #painting #lhdc #fit #fitness #melaninmagic #melaninfit #curls #curly #3c #4a #
While they are natural and a healthy addition to incorporate into your hair routine (providing strength, shine and so much more, with henna being a great natural way to add a red/reddish orange undertone to the hair) it is always best to be informed. If you have black or dark hair, you will notice a subtle red undertone to the hair which is more noticeable under direct sunlight (not really visible indoors). If you have light brown hair, you will notice a reddish brown undertone to your hair and if you are blond, you definitely will get an orange tint to your hair. For grays and white hair, you will get a golden orange/fiery orange tone to your hair.
⚠️New Video Alert⚠️ You’ll find the full recipe and how to on my channel (link in bio) of how I make my own DIY frozen henna bars.

Errand day prepping done (mental prepping is required for errand days). Hope you all are staying safe and keeping well. (Ps my hair needs some henna and tlc, who’s pulling up to help out? 😅) • • #teamnatural #naturalhair #natural #teamnaturalhair #curls #curly #naturalhairstyle #melanin #melaninpoppin #melaninmagic #melaninqueen #african #naturals #fit #fitness #naturalskin #muscat #oman #henna #hennahead #hair #skin #mixxedfit #mixxxedchicks
Days of errands are EXHAUSTING during this whole ordeal, but I find silver linings like, when it’s about to rain! I plan on laying down on my balcony when it comes. I did just do my hair using @curlsandpotions curling potion ( I LOVE their line). If you use MAICURLS you will avail to my discount for you at their shop!

Challenge accepted. I usually don’t participate in online “challenges” however, too many of my beautiful soul sisters tagged and it’s for a good “challenge” so why not. Tagging all women (especially my sisters of colour). #challengeaccepted #womensuportingwomen #womenempowerment
Been away doing things I enjoy: art, accessories and curls. Still working that New Years resolution too (despite the chaos of the world 🙏🏽). • • #teamnatural #naturalhair #natural #curls #naturalhair #art #teamnaturalhair #acrylic #acrylicpour #acrylicart #fluidart #colour #artandcurls #artist #accessories #handmade #handmadeart #naturalhairstyles #naturalbeauty #melaninpoppin #melanin #melaninmagic #melaninonfleek #painting #paintingoftheday
Balance and tranquillity: 2020 motto. I started the year thinking that would be my motto BEFORE realizing life would take the turn it has for all of us. So for me 2020 is definitely a year of Balance and tranquility. I hope all of you are staying safe out there, and to those having to put your life in potential jeopardy for the rest of us, I am grateful for your service. • • #headwrap #headwrapstyle #headwraps #headwraptutorial #teamnatural #teamnaturalhair #melanin #naturalhair #naturalhairsistas #melaninonfleek #african #africa #melaninpoppin #melaninpopping #protectivestyle #melaninpopin #handmade #jewelry #protectivestyles #bbloger #youtuber #blogger #natural #curls #earrings #accessories
