During my
visit to The Natural Hair Week a few weeks ago I happened upon the Motions
stand a while having a natter with the staff.
I have been
aware of motions for some time but I had never really tried any of their
products, however the company has re-branded and launched a Natural textural
textures range, which contains a heat styling range and a Natural textures
range.
During our
convo I mentioned to one of the consultants that I would be taking down my box
braids, washing and deep conditioning my hair and how I was not looking forward
to it. One of the consultants then introduced me to this little gem:
Pre-wash
Detangling Butter
which is one of the newest products in the Motions Natural
Textures range.
I was
instructed to me to gently finger comb
my hair then apply the product to the hair wait 15 minutes then comb out.
I think I
can handle that.
As Motions
were selling four products for £10 I decided to treat my hair to the following:
Natural
Textures Moisturizing Cleanser
Natural
Textures Deep Conditioning Masque
Natural
Textures Smoothing Conditioner
Instead of
going straight home after the event to rake out my braids and properly sort out
my hair I ended up going out for dinner and drinks and rolled into my house
around 10pm leaving me little time for me to take out my braids, wash and deep
condition my hair as I had an appointment with a hairdresser to get my hair
Crochet braided at 12pm the following day.
Once I took
out the braids it was dumb late so unfortunately I wasn’t in a place to vogue
and take pictures :(
As
instructed I finger detangled my hair then I added the Pre-wash Detangling
Butter massaging it into my hair then I left it for 15 mins then combed in
sections with a wide tooth comb starting from the ends and working my up to the
roots.
The product
was creamy and had a lovely smell to it and I found it worked really well to
detangle my tresses.
All I can
say is wow! Combing out my hair after taking out my braids has never been this
simple.
I then
rinsed my hair and washed it with the Moisturizing Cleanser. It lathered up
well and also smelled nice.
As I had my
hair in the braided for around 4 weeks previously I was eager to give it a good
deep condition.
I found the
masque to be quite thin in consistency and I was concerned that I would end up
using the whole tub on my hair but I found that a little went quite a long way.
When I
applied the masque to my damp hair in sections before combing with a wide tooth
comb and platting into a loose braid.
I then
covered my hair with a shower cap I then had a hot bath to compensate for not
sitting under the dryer.
After
getting out of the bath, and putting on my PJ I decided to leave the
conditioner in a little bit longer and ended up falling asleep with it in my
hair. Not great for my pillows but not the worst thing that could happen.
The
following morning when I rinsed out the conditioner my hair felt lovely an my
hair soft (moisturised) oh and let me mention that when I applied the masque my
curls suddenly popped into cutest tiny ringlets I wish a took a picture.
Before
After
Again
apologies for the lack of photos it was dumb o’clock in the morning.
While my
hair was still slightly damp I moisturize and sealed with Creamy Hair Lotion by
Cantu and Coconut oil and braid in sections and braided into chunky braids.
