    How are you so good at keeping your hair untangled and unmatted? This is my number one issue. No matter how much I detangle it always seem to clump back together 😕. Your hair is very beautiful and thick BTW 😍😍

    I LOVE ORS products and ever since going natural they’re all I use. I swear by me they’re why my hair has grew and been healthy lol they should hire me to be their advertiser. I want to relax and knowing you still use their stuff and your hair looks AMAZING oh yea I’m omw lol. Plus they’re Black owned and we’re the only company that did my hair any good. ❤️❤️

    You talking about the petroleum/mineral oil in the moisturiser reminds me of Amla oil. My hair loves that so much but the primary ingredient is mineral oil. :( I'm trying NOT to use it but my hair is like "but this was working out so well for us."

    Do you put anything to moisturize your hair during the week or just completely leave it alone?

  • @kristenstikes

    @kristenstikes

    I use the same products to moisturize and seal through the week. Sometimes the DIY leave in, ORS Olive Oil Moisturizing Hair Lotion or Carrot Oil Creme and oil.
