Loc Creme w/ ingredients

Good morning,

Loooong time no post...trying to work on that but, this post is to show off my Mixtress abilities.

This pic is on Loc Creme for my loc client that I have. I used some products from the beauty supply store but, stopped when reading the ingredients.





My creme ingredients are:

• Aloe Vera juice
• Herbal infused water (burdock root, comfrey root, lavender, and sage)
• Soybean oil
• Grapeseed oil
• Sweet almond oil
• Castor oil
• Horsetail butter
• Grade A shea butter
• Oat protein
• Calendula extract
• Honeyquat
• And a natural preservative called Tinosan SDC

It may seem like a lot of ingredients however, each serves a purpose for the hair growth, shine, and health. All of the oils and horsetail butter are light and absorbs easily. The shea butter is in there at a small percentage and will not weight the hair down.

Its a 8 ounce jar of goodness. I call it "Loc Creme" because I am using it on my loc clients however, I used it on my natural hair has well.

That's all for now, more to come...

Thanks for reading,

1st Annual (unofficial) Holiday Client Appreciation Gifts!

I know it has been awhile since posting (or tweeting). I have been very busy and in a "funk" because of certain past clients trying to break my spirits. However, THEY WILL NOT GET ME DOWN! I just don't understand why people take my kindness for weakness. In lieu of those situations I am going to be putting together gifts for my best clients!

The gifts will include:

• Liquid Black Soap
• Whipped Hair Creme
• 1 pair of earrings
• Thank you Card

I really appreciate you because you are the reason why I have not stop doing this. I would like to have all of this done by Christmas however, that may not happen more like December 31st/ January 2nd. When I make the first batch I will take a photo of the complete package.

The gifts will not be delivered through the mail. An email will be sent to those clients selected for pick up.

Until next time!

Holiday Gifting

Last year, I was on a roll with making bath & body products. Now, I was thinking of doing hair care items. Since, I am in that field that makes much more sense. I will be making the products that I have used on myself.

First, I will be making Black Onyx it has dual usage as a shampoo and a full body wash. Second, Creamy Locs for those who have locs and/or twists styles. Third, Whipped Creamy Pudding a moisturizing cream with light oils for everyday use and other natural hair styling. Lastly, Island Gold a conditioner that can be left in or act as a deep conditioner infused with herbs that promotes healthy hair.

These are the 4 things I will start with first. I have decided to leave them un-scented because everyone may not like what I like. However, if I get a collective poll on the scents then maybe.

They will not be for sale but as gifts. I will selected 5 winners through facebook or twitter. You'll have to answer the trivia questions regarding me and the info that's on my website, www.loveofhair.com.

You have to make sure you are a fan on facebook and/or following me on twitter. I will post 5 questions and the first person with the correct answer will receive the gift. Only one (1) gift per person. A message will be sent saying "You are the winner!", then you'll have to give me your address so, it can be mailed to you!

I feel really good about this. The products are handmade and all natural! The ingredients will be listed. That's all for now. Off to start ordering supplies and picking the trivia questions.
