#Silicone-free shampoo for natural curls

[lunarw0rks]

omg… what would Val think if she walked into her bedroom and saw the reader like 3 fingers deep into themselves and trying not to cum? (They were waiting for Val to cone back)

warning(s): nsfw (18+), (f.) masturbation, fem!reader

CRAVINGS | VALERIA GARZA

you were supposed to be napping, relaxing, or organizing the bookshelves if boredom ever got that severe. anything to keep you occupied while valeria was out.

the long halls of the adobe-style fortress were lonesome, and the security guards assigned to you weren't much for conversation, if at all.

besides, all it took was a text message. within the hour, one of the humorless brutes delivered your craving on a platter. sometimes it was valeria's favorite tea because it reminded you of the warmth only you felt. or the leftovers from dinner the previous night, reheated by the chefs — and tasting just as good as it was fresh.

but today, it wasn't food you were craving.

it was her; in more ways than one.

her pillow still smelled of her coconut-scented shampoo, reminding you of how it tickled your chest when she lay on it. and the indent of her body still left on that side, reminding you of the touch you missed.

you couldn't take it anymore, even after a power nap and a movie you paid little attention to.

against the golden, silky sheets, you writhed. your fingers worked tirelessly on the verge of cramping from how long you'd been at this game of desperation. deep inside, you curled and pumped them until you got close — then withdrew them completely.

eventually, she had to open the door, didn't she?

any minute, perhaps any second. the wet sounds echoed off the walls, and so did your whimpers. every ounce of self-control kept you from going on and on, pulling multiple orgasms from yourself until you were in tears.

but you couldn't. you were doing so good for her.

and you never climaxed the same way you did with her — as if her touch was laced with her own product. either way, valeria had you hooked, and knew it.

after a few deep breaths, you composed yourself and sunk your fingers inside your entrance again, clitoris twitching despite not being touched. you stretched yourself out deliciously, imagining the magenta silicone of valeria's strap in their place.

how she'd probably be gripping your face and pounding it into your needy hole mercilessly, or forcing you face down into the sheets when especially merciless.

at first, the flashbacks aided you in getting off—or almost getting off—but now, they only reminded you that the fingers inside you weren't hers. not her hot pink manicure with the nails trimmed, managing to hook against your g-spot every. time.

you were close again, this round quicker than any of the last.

arousal dribbled from your entrance, soaking into the silk below you. so desperate, that you ignored the strain of your legs as you held them open, or how you had grown dizzy from tossing your head back violently.

valeria sighed and trekked through the halls, her natural powerwalk causing any of her employees to dart at the sight of her. a long day, filled to the brim with ungodly amounts of boredom; she almost started to miss the bullets, the thrill of car chases and bombs.

twisting the key into the rickety lock, she expected your slumbering figure behind the door. or how you'd always be binging a TV show she had no interest in.

instead, you were anything but relaxed.

your eyes pooled tears. legs spread wide. soaked onto the sheets.

your dominant arm reaching down, its fingers slowing to a crawl when you noticed her. and how you whined; a familiar sound ringing through her ears.

you weren't pleasuring yourself; you were edging. how your eyes darted up to her when she opened the door, begging for approval to finally come undone.

she shut the bedroom door hastily, not wanting any of the guards posted to get a free show of what was hers. you were goddamn lucky you caught her on an under-stimulating business day, otherwise, tonight would've ended in more tears.

you kept thrusting your digits, slow enough that you weren't going to risk wasting all the build-up. though, spotting her bisceps in that tanktop wasn't making it easy.

valeria stepped closer to the bed and removed her vest, then her holster, "poor thing." she muttered, acting as if she was paying you no mind. it was all a game. "all three fingers, nena? you must be dying."

pathetically, you nodded your head, spitting out some sort of answer. once again, you needed to remove your fingers to prevent climax. if not so delirious, you'd be proud of yourself for going on like this so long.

your eyes followed her, hearing the unzip of her boots. and then, your head perked up when you heard the familiar grind of her nightstand drawer. the nightstand drawer, filled with all of her favorite toys and straps.

finally, a brief moment of clarity after who knows how long.

the tears blinded your vision, but you caught a glimpse of purple in her movements.

the same hue as her favorite strap; girthy and ribbed, able to make you cum at record speed, even when not edged — which wasn't often.

luckily, you had removed your fingers because the sight of the toy had you salivating; even your core clenched as if craving the luscious fill of it.

"on your knees," she snapped her fingers, and you scrambled into position within seconds, like a dog that had been recalled by its owner.

you ogled the oversized toy, starved and drooling.

"i want you to get it ready for your pussy. i don't care how wet you are." valeria ran her finger along one of the veins to drive you mad, pink nails contrasting the purple.

"boca abierta, perrita."

Do you have any tips to take care of slightly wavy hair (2a I think ?) please ? And resources too. There’s so many information about wavy / curly / kinky hair and the CGM and the likes, I have not idea where to begin.

Sure! Okay, I'm guessing from this phrasing that you've already read me talking about CGM and are interested, but not sure where to start? So I'll answer along those lines.

First of all, don't listen to YouTubers. Those people are lunatics. They'll be like "Here is a simple video showing you how to do a CGM wash! So first we cowash with a special cleansing product, then we cowash with a conditioner, then we use a detangling spray, then we use a hair mask for three minutes and seventeen seconds before rinsing with coconut water, then we condition with an organic conditioner, then we use a curl cream, then we use a curl custard, then we use a mousse, then we use a gel, then we use a shine spray, and then we add a leave in conditioner! Next up, here's a fifty minute video about the drying process! Love your natural curls uwu like and subscribe" MA'AM WHAT IS NATURAL ABOUT THOSE CURLS

But they can really end up confusing you. So steer clear until you have a handle on the basics! Unless you're looking up a specific technique and need to see it to understand - that's the one time YouTube is useful here.

What I did was I found a Facebook group that was about CGM in the UK specifically. I did it because until I wrapped my head around product ingredients, I wanted to get a list of UK products I could use. As luck would have it, the group I found is run by CGM trained hairdressers who are friends with Lorraine Massey (the CGM founder) and therefore know all the up to date advice and guidance. Their albums are full of both instructions and lists of CG friendly products, so that was mega useful.

I also got the CGM handbook for Christmas. For the most part, that was good - it was especially useful for my sister and cousin, because there's a chapter on how to do the method on kids, and both of them have since birthed curly haired children while having straight hair themselves and as such neither knew wtf to do until I photographed the pages and sent those along. BUT I will freely admit that her styling recommendations in that handbook for wavy hair are absolute dogshit. So there's that.

But ultimately, the biggest advice as you start is KEEP IT SIMPLE. Buy one (1) conditioner, and one (1) styling product (a mousse or a gel). Remember that the first step is transitioning your hair anyway, and that will take probably a week or two, and possibly up to six. Be patient. Don't expect perfect results overnight. Part of this stage is getting used to what natural curls look like - there will be a little bit of frizz, but pictures of curls in the media are always of frizz free tonged curls, not natural ones, so you need to get your eye in, so to speak.

If you're in the UK, I'd recommend you start with Sainsbury's own brand apple conditioner, or Alberto Balsam silicone free raspberry conditioner. Use it to both cowash and condition, because cowashing literally just means 'wash with a conditioner instead of shampoo'. At this time of year, the weather is getting hot and dry, so I'd recommend a glycerin-free styler like Shockwaves Tuff Stuff (the mysteries and mayhem of glycerin and dew points and curls are fascinating, but too complicated if you're new and trying to unknot your brain, so I shan't explain them here.)

Recommended procedure:

Cowash by rubbing that conditioner onto your roots for a few minutes, thoroughly. It doesn't need to be hard, but it does need to be thorough. Rinse it all out.

Put conditioner onto the lengths and ends of your hair. Gently detangle - you can use your fingers. I use a wide toothed comb. The important thing is to be gentle, and let the conditioner lubricate the process. This step takes the longest, btw - the rest is actually very straight forward.

The longer your hair is, the more I recommend you flip your hair upside down for the rest of this process, to help with volume; but you don't have to. HMU if you want an explanation of root clipping instead.

Put your hair back under the water and gently scrunch it from end to root as the conditioner washes out. Pools of water with conditioner should collect in your hands as you do - keep scrunching it back up into your hair until it runs clear. This is a technique called 'squish to condish', often written as 's2c'. It helps encourage the curl, and hydrate the hair shaft.

Squeeze the excess water out of your hair using the same motion.

Get your gel or mousse. You don't need too much, especially when starting out. Get a lil blob and rub it between your hands, until it coats your palms. Then gently scrunch that in, squeezing the water out as you go.

Use either a microfiber towel or a supersoft cotton t-shirt to further gently scrunch the excess water out. There's an appallingly named technique called 'plopping', which is where you wrap the hair up in the towel/t-shirt without disturbing the curls, and that's worth looking up; it's the equivalent of wrapping straight hair into a towel turban to take it from wet to damp.

Diffuse or air-dry! If you don't own a diffuser, look up how to use a colander or sieve, they work in a pinch. Also look up hammock diffusing, which I swear by for longer hair if that's what you have. DON'T FIDDLE WITH IT WHILE IT'S DRYING. Try to touch as little as possible. You will make more frizz the more you disturb it.

And that's it. It sounds more than it actually is in practice. My hair is super long, and the washing takes half an hour, most of which is detangling. Drying does take a while, but I personally find the trade off is more than worth it, because I only need to do it once a week now, rather than every other day like I used to.

And lastly, accept that your hair will never look the same from day to day, and that's part of the fun! Enjoy the process. The more you do it, the easier it gets.

(Also it will grow like a weed now so be prepared for that)

Do you have any product/technique suggestions for curly hair that do not contain coconut oil? It's such an annoying allergy to have but I get horrible hives and dandruff from it and I've literally found 1 conditioner I can use that's actually good for my hair and doesn't contain coconut oil. I know coconut oil is like liquid gold for curly hair :')

The stuff I use is "not your mother's naturals" brand (GODAWFUL name lmao what were they thinking) matcha green tea and apple blossom conditioner. Got it at Target. No coconut oil, and more importantly no silicones.

Technique wise, I subscribe to the Curly Girl Method more or less -- I only use shampoo (dandruff shampoo in my case) on the roots, and the rest of it I scrub thoroughly with conditioner only. I run a detangler through it when it's saturated with conditioner. Then I sort of squish more conditioner into it? Like a scrunching motion instead of a combing motion, if that makes sense.

After I rinse that out, I pat/squeeze most of the wetness out with a towel. I scrunch in some hydrating gel (also silicone free), and then "plop". (god, I hate the names that CGM folks call things.) Basically I lower my hair into an old t-shirt and wrap it up so it dries on top of my head instead of hanging down, so the curls have more bounce. You can find tutorials online.

Hope this is helpful! This is what I've come to with my own hair after a LOT of trial and error.

Pros And Cons Of Shampoo Bars

If you're thinking of swapping your liquid shampoo for an eco-friendlier alternative, shampoo bars might be the solution. They’re becoming popular for their benefits but also have some drawbacks. Here’s a breakdown of the pros and cons to help you decide.

Shampoo Bar Pros

Travel Friendly: Easy to pack and spill-proof.

Long-lasting: Typically outlast liquid shampoo.

Natural Ingredients: They promote hair health by eliminating residues from traditional shampoos.

Fewer Additives: Many bars use naturally derived ingredients.

Gentle Cleaning: Leaves hair clean without drying it out.

Shampoo Bar Cons

Build-up Potential: High concentration can cause build-up if not rinsed thoroughly.

Tangles and Frizz: Long, porous, or curly hair might experience more tangles and frizz.

Hard Water Issues: Performance can decline with hard water.

Shorter Expiration: They have a shorter shelf life.

Storage Problems: Bars can become mushy if not stored properly. See Shampoo Bar vs Regular Shampoo

FAQs

Are Shampoo Bars as Effective as Liquid Shampoo? Yes, but they require an adjustment period. Initially, hair might feel waxy or sticky, but natural ingredients will improve hair health over time.

Can Shampoo Bars Damage Hair? Usually, they are better for hair since they lack parabens, sulfates, and silicones. Choose a bar suited for your hair type, and consult a hairstylist or dermatologist for advice.

Are Shampoo Bars Good for Curly Hair? Yes, many bars hydrate curls without weighing them down. For best results, lather the bar at your scalp rather than your ends.

Is SLS Harmful to Your Hair? Sodium lauryl sulfate (SLS), found in most bottled shampoos, can cause an itchy scalp and hair loss. It’s not necessary for cleaning, making SLS-free shampoo bars a healthier choice.

How Often Should You Wash Your Hair with a Shampoo Bar? Washing too often can strip natural oils. Oily hair may need daily washing, but dry or normal hair should be washed 2-3 times a week. Always use a conditioner to keep hair hydrated.

Switching to shampoo bars can benefit both your hair and the environment. Consider the pros and cons, and make an informed choice for healthier hair care.

Nourishing Your Crown: The Importance of Hydration for Natural Hair with Blair Botanicals

For those embracing the journey of natural hair, proper hydration is not just a necessity but a cornerstone of healthy, vibrant curls and coils. Blair Botanicals, a trusted name in natural hair care, introduces a range of products specifically curated for starter locs. Let's delve into the significance of hydration for natural hair and explore why Blair Botanicals' products stand out as the best for nurturing and styling starter locs.

The Essence of Hydration for Natural Hair:-

Natural hair, known for its unique textures and patterns, requires consistent moisture to thrive. Unlike straight hair, curly and coily textures have a tendency to be more prone to dryness and breakage. Proper hydration not only keeps the hair soft and manageable but also promotes elasticity, reduces frizz, and enhances overall hair health.

Blair Botanicals' Best Products for Starter Locs:-

Hydrating Shampoo: A gentle, hydrating shampoo is the foundation of any natural hair care routine. Blair Botanicals' Hydrating Shampoo is enriched with botanical extracts and natural oils to cleanse the hair and scalp without stripping away essential moisture. It lays the groundwork for healthy starter locs by promoting a clean and balanced environment for hair growth.

Moisturizing Conditioner: Following up with a moisturizing conditioner is crucial to infuse the hair with hydration. Blair Botanicals' Moisturizing Conditioner is formulated with nourishing ingredients that penetrate the hair shaft, providing essential moisture and leaving starter locs feeling soft, manageable, and ready for the next steps in the styling process.

Loc and Twist Butter: As starter locs progress, they require special care to encourage a well-defined and controlled appearance. Blair Botanicals' Loc and Twist Butter is a game-changer for styling. This buttery formula not only provides intense hydration but also aids in shaping and defining locs, making it an essential product for those in the early stages of their natural hair journey.

Rejuvenating Hair Oil: To lock in moisture and add a layer of protection, Blair Botanicals offers a Rejuvenating Hair Oil. This nourishing blend of natural oils, including jojoba and argan oil, helps seal in moisture, reduce frizz, and promote a healthy scalp. It's a versatile product that can be used for scalp massages or as a finishing touch to add sheen to starter locs.

Blair Botanicals' Commitment to Natural Ingredients:-

Botanical Extracts: Blair Botanicals prioritizes the use of botanical extracts known for their nourishing properties. These extracts, derived from plants like aloe vera and chamomile, contribute to the overall health and vitality of natural hair.

Natural Oils: The brand harnesses the power of natural oils, such as coconut, jojoba, and argan oil, which are renowned for their ability to moisturize, condition, and strengthen hair. These oils are key components in Blair Botanicals' products, ensuring a natural and effective approach to hair care.

Free from Harmful Additives: Blair Botanicals' commitment to natural hair care extends to being free from harmful additives such as sulfates, parabens, and silicones. The brand's dedication to clean formulations ensures that their products enhance the health of starter locs without compromising on quality.

Conclusion:-

Hydration is the lifeline for natural hair, and Blair Botanicals' range of products for starter locs is designed with this fundamental principle in mind. From cleansing to styling, each product caters to the unique needs of natural hair, providing the essential moisture required for optimal health and beauty. As you embark on your journey towards flourishing, well-hydrated starter locs, trust Blair Botanicals to be your partner in achieving and maintaining the vibrant and nourished natural hair you desire.

hiyah ! so i noticed that you talk alot abt the CGM and cowashing on your account, so i had some questions for my fave welsh not-quite-a hair expert :)

when you cowash, do you use a cowash with cleansing agents(surfactants, chelators, etc) or is it just plan conditioner?

do you think this method is a good idea for people with tight curls ? i have what the girls might call a 4a (i dont understand the hair typing system and im fine w that lol) and all the chatter is that the CGM isn't good for tight curls, as the sebum isn't getting all throughout the hair shaft unless you wear your hair pressed all the time. so basically, i've been told shampooing is necessary for people who have coily hair lol

how often do you do things like maintenance cuts? do you trim your hair at home?

are you an expensive products enjoyer or do you prefer cheaper hair products? i myself dont have a lot of hair so im willing to drop £24 on redken shampoo, but my conditioner was like £10. i do want to try the redken conditioner but i really cant stand thick creamy products at all.

what's your favourite way to style your hair? i used to do wash and gos but now i just wear it unmanipulated all the time.

tysm for answering ! i hope the weather is lovely in wales today :)))

'Tis plain conditioner, as long as it's CG friendly. Surfactants are super drying and therefore BANNED

I really couldn't answer this, I'm 2c/3a. I know there are people who use it to great effect, and people who think it doesn't work.

So, the closest properly CG trained hairstylist to me is in fecking Frome, which is a trek and a half, so I have it properly done once a year. The rest of the time, I trim my own fringe and that's about it. However, there is a section in the CG handbook that explains how to do a maintenance cut if you want, and I think a lot of people do that.

LOL cheap. My conditioner is £1 a bottle (Alberto Balsam silicone free raspbery). I tried the expensive Boucleme one once, just to see (£17 per bottle), and actually my hair didn't even bloody like it.

I let it do its natural thing tbh, I'm very lazy. That said, on special occasions I French plait it at one temple to do a fake undercut, and that's nice.

Thank you! It's fecking freezing. Good luck with your keratin strands.

THE PERFECT STEPS TO CLEAN YOUR 13X4 WATER WAVE WIGS

Hair care doesn't stop at your natural tresses. If you're a proud owner of a 13x4 water wave wig with an invisible HD lace front, you already know it adds that extra oomph to your look. But, maintaining it? That's a whole other story. It's not as simple as dunking it in a bucket of water and slapping some shampoo on it. No, no. Your wig needs tender loving care, just like your natural hair. It's high time we debunked the myth that wig care is a daunting task. 

So, brace yourself! This essential guide will walk you through the process of washing your water wave wig with an invisible HD lace front the right way. Let's banish those wig-care woes and ensure your wig not only looks fabulous but also stands the test of time. No more fretting over frizziness or tangles. This guide will be your go-to resource for keeping your wig looking its absolute best. After all, a well-maintained wig is the cornerstone of any wig lover’s collection. Let's dive in, shall we?

1. Pre-Washing Preparations for Your 13x4 Water Wave Wig

Before diving into the washing process, take the necessary steps to prepare your 13x4 water wave wig to ensure optimal results:

Gently Detangle: Remove any knots and tangles from the wig by using a wide-tooth comb or a wig brush, starting at the tips and gently working your way up to the roots.

Inspect for Damage: Check the wig for any loose strands or damage, particularly around the HD lace front. If any repair is required, consider consulting a professional wig restorer.

2. Washing Your 13x4 Water Wave Wig

Follow these guidelines to properly wash your 13x4 water wave human hair wig with an invisible HD lace front:

Fill a basin with lukewarm water and add a mild, sulfate-free shampoo designed for human hair wigs. Mix well to create a soapy solution.

Submerge the wig in the water, gently massaging the shampoo into the hair, focusing on the roots and the lace front. Avoid rubbing, as this could lead to matting or breakage.

Rinse the wig thoroughly under lukewarm running water until all shampoo residues are removed.

Apply a moisturising, silicone-free conditioner to the wig, starting from the mid-shaft and working down to the ends. Avoid applying conditioner to the roots or lace front, as this could weaken the knots and adhesives.

Let the conditioner sit for 2-3 minutes, then rinse the wig again with lukewarm water.

Gently squeeze excess water from the wig, using a towel if necessary. Refrain from wringing or twisting the hair.

3. Drying and Styling Your 13x4 Water Wave Wig

Proper drying and styling techniques are crucial for maintaining the integrity of your water wave wig:

Lay the wig on a clean, absorbent towel and gently blot to remove excess moisture. Do not rub the hair.

Place the wig on a wig stand or mannequin head to air dry at room temperature, away from direct sunlight and heat sources.

Once the wig is completely dry, detangle and style the water wave pattern using a wide-tooth comb or fingers. Avoid using heat styling tools, as this may alter or damage the natural curl pattern.

4. Maintenance Tips for Your 13x4 Water Wave Wig

Regular maintenance is pivotal in prolonging the lifespan and appearance of your 13x4 water wave human hair wig with an invisible HD lace front:

Washing Frequency: Aim to wash your wig every 2-4 weeks or as needed. Overwashing may strip the hair of its natural oils, while infrequent washing might result in product build-up and odours.

Store Properly: When not in use, store your wig on a wig stand or mannequin head in a cool, dry environment, away from direct sunlight.

Regular Detangling: Frequently detangle your wig using a wide-tooth comb or wig brush, preferably after each use. This reduces the risk of matting, tangling, and breakage.

5. Preserving the HD Lace Front

Preserving the lace front of your water wave wig is crucial for maintaining its natural appearance. Be mindful of the following steps:

Gentle Handling: The lace front of your wig is delicate. Practice caution while washing, applying, or removing the wig to prevent any damage to the lace.

Clean Regularly: Regular cleansing of the lace front helps maintain a fresh and natural look. Follow proper washing techniques, as mentioned above, to avoid weakening the knots and adhesives.

6. Sleep and Exercise Considerations

While wearing your water wave wig during sleep or exercise is not ideal, some precautions can help minimise potential damage:

Sleep: If you must sleep with your wig, wrap your head with a silk or satin scarf to reduce friction and tangling between the hairs. Alternatively, use a silk or satin pillowcase.

Exercise: If you choose to exercise with your wig, consider wearing a moisture-wicking wig cap beneath the wig to protect it from sweat. After exercising, allow the wig to air out and ensure it is thoroughly dry before storing.

Following these extensive guidelines on washing, drying, styling, and maintaining your 13x4 water wave wig with an invisible HD lace front will ensure that your wig remains in excellent condition, allowing you to enjoy its elegance and beauty for an extended period.

Hair Smoothing Treatments Near Me

For those who are a little squeamish about a traditional hair smoothing treatment that contains formaldehyde (it's a gas, and it's not good for you), there are non-toxic options out there. The best part about the new wave of hair smoothing products is that they actually make your hair healthier. They reduce frizz, strengthen strands, and can even create some volume. The Upper Hand salon in Brooklyn, NY offers a variety of smoothing treatments that are safe for you and the environment.

One of our favorites is the ion Keratin Smoothing Treatment. It reduces up to ninety-five percent of frizz and leaves your hair soft, smooth and with a luxurious texture. It also seals your color in, extending the life of your color and keeping it vibrant and shiny.

Another great option is the Brazilian Blowout, which uses breakthrough technology to offer a customizable smoothing treatment. This treatment is a more permanent option that can last for ten or twelve weeks, depending on your hair type. It's a little different than chemical straightening because it doesn't break down the bonds of your hair to make it straight. It simply seals the cuticle with a layer of keratin, and it works on all textures from loose waves to tight curls.

It is important to note that a keratin smoothing treatment only lasts for up to ten or twelve weeks, so if you want to maintain your smooth look longer you'll need to use a sulfate free shampoo and avoid heat styling tools. You should also avoid beach-wave sprays, which are often loaded with sulfates and salts that will cause your hair to break down prematurely.

Most at-home hair smoothing treatments near me do not affect the bonds in your hair, and they just coat the strands with a silicone barrier to keep humidity out. These types of products, like Tresemme 7 Day Keratin Smooth Heat Activated Treatment, usually only take away a few stray frizzes and can be found at your local drugstore for $10.

The beauty of salon-based keratin treatments is that they're customized for you by your stylist, and they'll leave you with a beautiful result that will last for up to eight or nine weeks. These salon-based treatments are also a lot safer than the at-home keratin products because they're not containing any formaldehyde.

A great time to have a keratin smoothing treatment is right after you've colored your hair or had a chemical service. The keratin will help to seal in the color and extend the life of your color, as well as eliminate frizz and add shine.
