My Castor Oil Challenge results were featured on HairliciousInc's YouTube Channel!

The challenge ran from April 22 - August 22.

I began the challenge on April 20, 2009 and continue to use Castor Oil today. It will forever remain part of my regimen.

Part 3 will begin on Sunday September 2 and run through Sunday December 2. This will be the final challenge in 2009.

Grow It: How To Grow Afro-Textured Hair To Maximum Lengths In The Shortest Time by Chicoro

I was recently contacted by the beautiful Chicoro, the author of the book Grow It!: How To Grow Afro-Textured Hair To Maximum Lengths In The Shortest Time. As a thank you for featuring her wonderful book in Build Your Natural Hair Care Library promotion at the top of the blog, she's sending me one of her beautiful tote bags.


As a special thanks to beautiful Chicoro, she deserves a blog post of her very own.
