i use it as part of my ceramide oil mix. i love it. walnut oil is one of the true ceramides (the others being sunflower, kukui, hemp and wheat germ). ceramides have really helped my hair.

well i was rocking the fugly braids since the last time i posted. going back to mini braids tomorrow. keeping those in for 6 weeks.

i use the oils and powders. using amla, bhringraj, brahmi.

i trimmed my hair the other day. my ends weren't as bad as i thought. right now i am rocking some big fugly braids. not sure when i will go back to the mini braids.
