I’m into 2 months since I began CG and it’s becoming a lifestyle for me. I tell my kids, family and friends how bad shampoo does to your hair and the only people that listens to me are my kids… LOL. Now they co-wash their hair and my little one used up my Honey Coco Mango soap. Now only if we incorporate exercising into our lifestyle, we’d be fit curlies  . But that’s a whole different story.
I’m still in a learning process with the whole CG thing; different techniques such as scrunching the crunch, plopping, pixiecurl, in what order to apply styling products, etc. Experimenting with different products to see what works best for me and such, this can be very overwhelming. I mean, I HAVE the curls, but lately they’ve been frizzy and flat on top.
As far as frizz goes, I read somewhere on NC.com forum that AVG can make hair frizzy. I’ve been using that since I started CG cuz it helped enhanced my curls and I’d wear it under LaBella Max Hold Gel. So as an experiment this week, I decided not to use AVG and used LOOB instead as a curl enhancer under HETT, plopped for a couple of hours and I didn’t even have to diffuse and I must say I had the best 1st day hair ever. I frizzed by the end of the day but not as much as I did using AVG. I only got 3 day out of that combo. And best of all, I had the best curl formation from the roots and volume thanks to my Denman D3 brush!
I might have to do a deep treatment to fix the frizz. Or maybe add protein into my routine. Not sure but I might have to post on NC.com and ask for advice.
