That would be Joico's Joiwhip Mouuse. I put ALOT on. If you think you have enough, add more. Then I flip my head over and take a paper towel to scrunch my moussed curls. They come out in perfect unfrizzy curls. I dry with a diffuser and they come out soft and silky. If you air dry then it comes out crunchy.

Their site is mixedchicks.NET...whatever you do DO NOT go to the .com of that address. ack! Lots of good product suggestions. [frantically making notes] Vanessa, what is the lipstick previously recco'd that stays on forever??!! I missed it. :-( Darcy – my niece (who now refers to herself as a mixed-kid) likes the Mixed Chicks products.

(they still shower regularly, of course, they just don't wash their hair.) as a wavy/curly haired white girl, i don't wash my hair more than 2x a week. maggie, you have beautiful hair. :) carrie – you can always mix some conditioner with water in a spray bottle and use that as a detangler. aloe vera is a good idea too. both are much cheaper and at least as effective as the pre-packaged detangler they sell.

You alway look so lovely. Thank you for ponying up about the hair. Because I wanted to ask, but was afraid of the Nazi comments. Now. The lipstick please. Seriously. Beautiful!

Looked great! Thanks for not saying your naturally curly hair just naturally always looks great. Sometimes I feel like I have to hide the fact that I need product to make my hair do what I want it to do (and what I know deep down it wants to do too) because it somehow disqualifies me from having 'real' curls. Real curls are still real work. The tips are really useful because now I'm in the land of straight German hair and there is no selection of products to choose from. Your products are going on the shopping list my Kraut husband is taking on his business trip to San Francisco. (His penis by the way was the first uncut one I'd ever met, and heavily influenced my opinion on the topic. Personally, I'm anti.) ;-) The first thing I noticed in that video was your hair.

Okay, I'm new here and I have very-wavy-bordering-on-curly hair, but there's no way it would air dry in less than 6 hours and it's only chin length! When it was your length, 20 hours, easy. How is it possible? More importantly how is it fair? Wait a minute… your hair air dries?
