Leave-In Love

If you are new to #naturalhaircare on YouTube and haven’t made it over to Kimmaytube’s channel, stop reading and head over there now. You specifically want to watch her video about her leave-in conditioner concoction.

This is the second time I’ve done it and I love the soft, moisturized feel of my hair. I also styled it with just the leave-in and no additional curl cream. I put my hair in two-strand twists. So far the hold is great. I’m so impressed. If this works, I can save hundreds of $$ in curl creams and styling gels.

I copied her exact recipe, but she encourages viewers to adapt it to their own hair needs. If they have another conditioner they like better, use that. And you can probably swap out the jojoba oil for olive or coconut. And maybe use aloe vera gel instead of aloe vera juice.

She’ll break it down for you, but here’s what I’m using:
2 tbsp of Kinky Curly Knot Today
2 tbsp of Aloe Vera juice
2 tsp jojoba oil
2 tsp castor oil.

I put it on after I’ve rinsed out my conditioner _ in sections, of course. Twist it up, let it air dry and untwist with fingers dripping coconut oil (or EVOO). Viola. I will twist them back up at night and see how it goes.
