Today its all about hair on the blog!
Join me as I share my weekly hair routine with you all and show you how I go from this......
 

  

 

 To this....

 

 

Let's Begin!!!

 

 

 



 

 

This is how my hair looks in its natural state and when I am in dying need of a shampoo.  Its time for a wash, so I decided to take some pics and show you my usual hair routine.  Nothing fancy here.  Just the basic - shampoo, condition, moisturize, and blow dry.  Simple as 1..2..3.. right?

 

 

I recently purchased the Dove Advanced Hair Series ~ Quench Absolute For Curly, Course Hair and I must admit, I LOVE these products!  I consider my hair to be course and curly and this product works amazingly for my hair.  I love the smell also.  Sometimes for me its hard to find a shampoo that doesn't dry out my hair and leave it feeling tangled and matted in the shower.  With this product, I was able to shampoo with ease and my hair felt soft and detangled in the shower.  It was like I could run my fingers through my hair to detangle!  Like magic for someone with my hair type.  The Dove brand has some really good products and if you have hair similar to my texture and you are looking for a good shampoo and conditioner to use, I highly recommend these products.  Trust me, they do work well for course and curly hair!

 

After shampooing and conditioning in the shower, I always detangle using a wide tooth comb.  I detangle while in the shower, but I follow up with a comb through after I get out of the shower as well. 

 

I then use a leave in conditioner or moisturizer of choice and then comb through to evenly distribute the product.  I usually use Cantu Argon Oil Leave In Conditioning Repair Cream or Shea Moisture's Curl Enhancing Smoothie.  I typically alternate between the two.

 

 

Nice and creamy product that leaves my hair feeling soft.....

  

 

I always concentrate on my ends

 

 

 

 

And then I lock in the moisture with good 'ole Olive Oil!  A natural product that works wonders for natural hair....

 

 

 

 

 

And Voila!

Shampooed, Conditioned, Detangled, and Moisturized! 

 

 

 

 

Next, I section my hair off and then proceed with blow drying.

The blow drying process can take anywhere from 30-45 minutes for me.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 Brushing the hair with a paddled brush and applying heat is what straightens the hair shaft

 

 

 

 

Can you spot that little gray strand that has been there since I was born...

LOL

 

 

I like using this Garnier Fructis Sleek & Shine serum after blow drying.  It leaves my hair soft with a bit of shine!

 



 

 

 

I do not flat iron my hair after a wash and blow dry, only because I like my hair to look full with a bit of texture.  I always sleep with my hair wrapped at night and in the mornings I am good to go!

 

 

Finished look!

 

 

Hope you all enjoyed!!

:)

 

 

Until Next Time......

*********************************

 

 

I was able to ask Renee' Franc a few questions about her career and what "Success" means to her.  Renee's hard work ethic and strength is the true definition of success, and I am truly delighted to feature Renee' Franc and her brand here on HumbleBeauty's "Beautiful Success" series....

 

 

HumbleBeauty:  What do you love most about your career?

 

Renee' Franc:  What I love most about my career is the opportunity to be creative and to see happiness.  That's where I get my joy, seeing other people happy with their event or whatever I come up with.  Just to see the look on their face like, wow this is nice because I like to cater to that person.  And when I have nailed that, I'm pleased and I am happy.  I know that God instilled that because anytime I do an event and before I come up with a design I pray and ask God to give me vision and direction.  I don't want it to be about Renee' Franc, I want people to see the glory in it and how He took this girl and did good for her and gave her this gift that's from God.

 

 

 

 

 

 

HumbleBeauty:  What drives and motivates you?

 

Renee' Franc:  I lost my mother in 2012.  It was a sudden death, it wasn't expected, she wasn't sick to our knowledge.  So the losing of my mother, it inspired me because a lot of the talents and the gifts that I have are from God, but they were also instilled by her because she was an awesome cook and an awesome decorator, so I had no choice but to pick it up.  She was my biggest cheerleader and just knowing that she is looking over me, it motivates me.  I am doing this for her.

 

HumbleBeauty:  How do you overcome obstacles?

 

Renee' Franc:  Faith and just keep pressing.  Knowing that I dedicate my business back to God, its going to prosper because I dedicate it back to him.  I pray and I look for guidance to hear Him, that helps me get through it. 

 

HumbleBeauty:  What does success mean to you?

 

Renee' Franc:  Success to me is when someone can reap something from Renee' Franc.  Where I plant seeds and I see a harvest for the seeds and not just financial seeds.

 

HumbleBeauty:  What advice would you give to other women who are on their path to pursing their dreams?

 

Renee' Franc:  My advice would be, no matter what it looks like, no matter how hard it gets or if you want to quit, keep pressing, praying, and giving it your all.  Just have faith.  Surround yourself with people who are going to uplift you and push you and not allow you to give up!
