<br />
<span style="color: #990000;">Hi fellows :) This is a poem i was sent and thought of sharing since i liked it. It did not have the authors name so i have no clue of who is the author.</span><br />
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
<br />
Today, upon a bus, I saw a very beautiful woman<br />
And wished I were as beautiful.<br />
When suddenly she rose to leave,<br />
I saw her hobble down the aisle.<br />
She had one leg and used a crutch.<br />
But as she passed, she passed a smile.<br />
Oh, God, forgive me when I whine.<br />
I have two legs; the world is mine.</blockquote>
<br />
<br />
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
I stopped to buy some candy.<br />
The lad who sold it had such charm.<br />
I talked with him, he seemed so glad.<br />
If I were late, it'd do no harm.<br />
And as I left, he said to me,<br />
"I thank you,you've been so kind.<br />
It's nice to talk with folks like you.<br />
You see," he said, "I'm blind."<br />
Oh, God, forgive me when I whine.<br />
I have two eyes; the world is mine.</blockquote>
<br />
<br />
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
Later while walking down the street,<br />
I saw a child I knew.<br />
He stood and watched the others play,<br />
but he did not know what to do.<br />
I stopped a moment and then I said,<br />
"Why don't you join them dear?"<br />
He looked ahead without a word.<br />
I forgot, he couldn't hear.<br />
Oh, God, forgive me when I whine.<br />
I have two ears; the world is mine.</blockquote>
<br />
<br />
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
With feet to take me where I'd go..<br />
With eyes to see the sunset's glow.<br />
With ears to hear what I'd know.<br />
Oh, God, forgive me when I whine.<br />
I've been blessed indeed, the world is mine.</blockquote>
<br />

<div style="font-family: Georgia; font-size: 15px; line-height: 19.9375px;">
<br /></div>
<span style="font-family: Georgia;"><span style="font-size: 15px; line-height: 19.9375px;">Now if someone is reading this and has no feet, ears or something else. Don't worry. The world is your as long as you are grateful with what you have and fulfill your special God-given purpose of existence.</span></span></div>

she/he knows herself/himself better than i do...you then get that 70% belief the person had for you and lower it into a 30% or sometimes even deplete it.All this happened without you nor i taking notice and that's the sad part of it.Instead you should enhance the 70% into a 100% without being prideful.That keeps both positive and you keeping a balance that's healthy to your esteem.I hope this was helpful to someone.</span></div><div style="background-color: white;

</div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;">This is a valuable lesson I’m in the process of learning. I believe it would be a great mind opener for you too so it’s good to share.<o:p></o:p></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;">Have you hear before these little kids stories when small. Some portray a valuable lesson. Today I’ll share one of those stories. I might add in some things because it’s kind of hard to remember a story exactly the way you were told but a story is always a story however you say it. Then I’ll unlock a food for thought…<o:p></o:p></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;">Once upon a time there was a shepherd that found a stray cub, he took it and decided to grow it with his sheep. This cub was there growing slowly into a lion. But hey, there’s something that didn’t look normal. He grew with lots of love from the shepherd, lived with the sheep’s and started behaving like one. Some time passed and things seemed to change. The sheep’s while eating grass in the field used to panic all of a sudden and rush back to their shelter. He used to follow them without knowing the cause. One day he thought “Why are all these fellow sheep running away, let me go see”. He went up front and saw it was because of a tiny, to him, looking creature; a wolf. In a twinkle of an eye his lion instincts awakened “Is this causing all these?” said in his heart and suddenly he started roaring. Yes, a mighty lion! The wolf of course couldn’t stand him and run away.Victory! Wow this was so easy, isn’t it?<o:p></o:p></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;">This who we are. Through Jesus Christ we have been given power over the devil. We have to realize that. Let’s look at the story of David to add to this. We are going to read from the book of 1<sup>st</sup> Samuel 17:1-26 (ESV) pay special attention to the last words of David in verse 26.<o:p></o:p></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;"><br />
</span></div><br />
<span style="background-color: #ffd966;">1 Now the Philistines gathered their armies for battle. And they were gathered at Socoh, which belongs to Judah, and encamped between Socoh and Azekah, in Ephes-dammim. 2 And Saul and the men of Israel were gathered, and encamped in the Valley of Elah, and drew up in line of battle against the Philistines. 3 And the Philistines stood on the mountain on the one side, and Israel stood on the mountain on the other side, with a valley between them. 4 And there came out from the camp of the Philistines a champion named Goliath of Gath, whose height was six[<a href="http://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=1+Samuel+17&version=ESV#fen-ESV-7623a">a</a>] cubits[<a href="http://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=1+Samuel+17&version=ESV#fen-ESV-7623b">b</a>]and a span. 5 He had a helmet of bronze on his head, and he was armed with a coat of mail, and the weight of the coat was five thousand shekels[<a href="http://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=1+Samuel+17&version=ESV#fen-ESV-7624c">c</a>] of bronze. 6 And he had bronze armor on his legs, and a javelin of bronze slung between his shoulders. 7 The shaft of his spear was like a weaver's beam, and his spear's head weighed six hundred shekels of iron. And his shield-bearer went before him. 8 He stood and shouted to the ranks of Israel, “Why have you come out to draw up for battle? Am I not a Philistine, and are you not servants of Saul? Choose a man for yourselves, and let him come down to me. 9 If he is able to fight with me and kill me, then we will be your servants. But if I prevail against him and kill him, then you shall be our servants and serve us.” 10 And the Philistine said, “I defy the ranks of Israel this day. Give me a man, that we may fight together.” 11 When Saul and all Israel heard these words of the Philistine, they were dismayed and greatly afraid.<br />
12 Now David was the son of an Ephrathite of Bethlehem in Judah, named Jesse, who had eight sons. In the days of Saul the man was already old and advanced in years.[<a href="http://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=1+Samuel+17&version=ESV#fen-ESV-7631d">d</a>] 13 The three oldest sons of Jesse had followed Saul to the battle. And the names of his three sons who went to the battle were Eliab the firstborn, and next to him Abinadab, and the third Shammah. 14 David was the youngest. The three eldest followed Saul, 15 but David went back and forth from Saul to feed his father's sheep at Bethlehem. 16 For forty days the Philistine came forward and took his stand, morning and evening.<br />
17 And Jesse said to David his son, “Take for your brothers an ephah[<a href="http://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=1+Samuel+17&version=ESV#fen-ESV-7636e">e</a>] of this parched grain, and these ten loaves, and carry them quickly to the camp to your brothers. 18 Also take these ten cheeses to the commander of their thousand. See if your brothers are well, and bring some token from them.”<br />
19 Now Saul and they and all the men of Israel were in the Valley of Elah, fighting with the Philistines. 20 And David rose early in the morning and left the sheep with a keeper and took the provisions and went, as Jesse had commanded him. And he came to the encampment as the host was going out to the battle line, shouting the war cry. 21 And Israel and the Philistines drew up for battle, army against army. 22 And David left the things in charge of the keeper of the baggage and ran to the ranks and went and greeted his brothers. 23 As he talked with them, behold, the champion, the Philistine of Gath, Goliath by name, came up out of the ranks of the Philistines and spoke the same words as before. And David heard him.<br />
24 All the men of Israel, when they saw the man, fled from him and were much afraid. 25 And the men of Israel said, “Have you seen this man who has come up? Surely he has come up to defy Israel. And the king will enrich the man who kills him with great riches and will give him his daughter and make his father's house free in Israel.” 26 And David said to the men who stood by him, “What shall be done for the man who kills this Philistine and takes away the reproach from Israel? For who is this uncircumcised Philistine, that he should defy the armies of the living God?” </span><br />
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;">Can you see the lion awakening in him? The spirit of the living God enforcing him with supernatural power to crush down the enemy and do what was said impossible? You can read on that chapter to see David’s victory through God.<o:p></o:p></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;">That’s my great lesson .At times when I see others giving up on things I’m struggling to do I think in the manner of…”If they can’t do it why should I even try? It’s just impossible.” A loser without even trying …Do you see yourself in my words? May God deliver us both! <o:p></o:p></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;"> So now where’s the point? The point is don’t lose before the battle, try hard and then trust not in yourself but in God who never fails. If he wills he can do some miraculous thing through you and what you thought impossible or unattainable will happen right in front of your eyes! Of course there is a preparation one has to make (which we might discuss in another topic) before even thinking of trying what you are afraid of. But in short I learned to not allow the fiery thoughts to stop me from taking the plunge, of course we are all human beings no one can be totally fearless but with God’s help we can all improve and do better. Finally when you get that victory, if God permitted you to do so, <b>give him the glory and thanks</b> because people will praise you for the accomplishment. But we both know who did it :) Let me know if this article was of help and you enjoyed it. I would be happy to. If you didn’t get the victory then stay calm God may be taking you to another direction better than yours.<o:p></o:p></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><br />

<div class="MsoNormal" style="color: #b45f06;"><span style="font-size: x-large;">Robot life-A Christians way to conscious interactions.</span></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="color: black;"><br />
</div><div class="MsoNormal" style="color: black;"><span style="font-size: small;">written by Flower princess</span></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="color: black;"><span style="font-size: small;"> please do not plagiarize </span></div><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="color: black;"> </span></span><br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="color: black;"><br />
</div><div class="MsoNormal">Recently I’ve realized that our lives have started becoming automatic. We are leaving less consciously. This is a lesson first to me and then to you, if you accept the truth in it. From waking to eating to sleeping and so on. <b>We do things without paying attention. Why?</b></div><div class="MsoNormal"><br />
</div><div class="MsoNormal">1. It seems normal and in fact in this world who wants to be abnormal?!</div><div class="MsoNormal">2. It is easy. Once you get used to it, it just happens instantly.</div><div class="MsoNormal">3. We haven’t realized or take notice of this fact. Life is moving so fast to notice.</div><div class="MsoNormal">4. Life is getting automatic; everything is being set on autopilot.</div><div class="MsoNormal">5. The fear of being mediocre. Not so good for the people around you.</div><div class="MsoNormal">6. it’s comfortable.</div><div class="MsoNormal">7. You can’t control yourself anymore or maybe you have no choice.</div><div class="MsoNormal">The list can goes on to the reasons why things are happening like that.</div><div class="MsoNormal">But you know what I’ve realized?</div><div class="MsoNormal"><br />
</div><div class="MsoNormal">In doing so </div><ul style="text-align: left;"><li>We lose our lives.</li>
<li>We forget that our true home is with God.</li>
<li>We become ‘religious’ in the bad sense.</li>
<li> We forget the purpose of our living or creation.</li>
<li>We look normal in what’s not normal and remain just another ordinary person.</li>
<li>We conform to our surroundings, whether good or bad.</li>
<li> We become emotionless.</li>
</ul><div class="MsoNormal">And the most important is…</div><div class="MsoNormal">That’s what I’m going to analyze now.</div><div class="MsoNormal">Let’s think together.</div><div class="MsoNormal">When was the last time I said good morning and really meant it?</div><div class="MsoNormal">When was the last time I said bye, sorry, hello, love you, God bless you, a compliment, gave a hug e.t.c and really meant it?</div><div class="MsoNormal">These are just some examples but think of sentences you frequently say or things you do.</div><div class="MsoNormal"><br />
</div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: large;"><b>It’s easy to say I hate you and mean it than to say good morning.</b></span></div><div class="MsoNormal">I realized that it’s easy to say something negative and really mean it.</div><div class="MsoNormal">What do I mean when I say mean it?</div><div class="MsoNormal"><br />
</div><div class="MsoNormal">Let’s check it out. When we say or do things from our heart there is an emotion or a mixture of emotions either positive or negative that is being released. When we talk or act casually in the autopilot mode we feel and release voidness.</div><div class="MsoNormal"><br />
</div><div class="MsoNormal" style="background-color: #38761d;"><b> How do i bring more positive emotions in my life? </b></div><div class="MsoNormal"><br />
</div><div class="MsoNormal">1. The first step is by developing your relationship with God. A healthy relationship with God is the base of godly interactions with others.</div><div class="MsoNormal">2. Meditate upon the word of God and give him the chance to tell you how you can live consciously.</div><div class="MsoNormal">3. Pray and ask God to help you to practice what he expects and told you to do. But before this you must forgive those who hurt you. Yes, that’s the tough part and a constant struggle but with God’s help it is possible. Then ask him also to forgive you from your sins. This way you get cleansed and healthy spiritually which will eventually show in your physical interactions.</div><div class="MsoNormal">4. See life the way God wants you to see it. See the many blessings you have and smile from your heart. Even if things are tough remember God’s love in giving his son and be grateful. You are not forgotten.</div><div class="MsoNormal">5. Share Gods love and emotions. Say hello, laugh, cry, and smile but do it from your heart. Yes i said cry! Crying releases the negativity that you store inside you or can also be an expression of overwhelming happiness. Give a huge hearty hug to someone today! Be genuinely and respectively yourself in Christ. This way you remain healthy in the heart and soul. Now it’s easy; continue to live like this!</div><div class="MsoNormal">God bless you!</div><div class="MsoNormal"><br />

<br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #6aa84f;">If you have been struggling to do flat twists here's how to do it.</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #6aa84f;">They might look bad in the very beginning of but with time and trial the'll look better.</span><br />
<br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: magenta;">1.</span>Part your hair vertically for the flat twist in the same manner they part for cornrows<br />
<br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: magenta;">2.</span>Grab a small piece of hair from the beginning of the section you are about to flat twist.<br />
<br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: magenta;">3.</span>Split it into two -let's call it A(left ) and B(right)<br />
<br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: magenta;">4.</span>Twist it anti clockwise or clockwise.Lets say now we are doing it anti clockwise,so i twist/cross B over A<br />
<br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: magenta;">5.</span>Grab a little extra hair from the section,add it to A and twist/cross A(with the added hair) over B.Now B will be behind A.<br />
<br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="background-color: white;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: magenta;">6.</span></span>Grab a little extra hair and add it to B now twist B over A and continue step 5 and 6 till you end the twist.<br />
<br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: magenta;">7.</span>Once you reach the end continue by doing a regular 2 strand twist.<br />
<br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="background-color: yellow;">Tip:While doing this keep your hands close/on top of your scalp.</span></div>Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4290769356643137955.post-90594114041910975042011-11-13T00:10:00.007+02:002011-12-02T09:00:05.461+02:00Petroleum Jelly: A Friend and Enemy and My Theory-pt1<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on"><br />

<strong><img height="233" src="http://www.godblessafrica.com/images/stories/hungry.jpg" width="217" /></strong><br />
<span style="color: #ff6600;">What is food?</span><br />
food [fuːd]<em>n</em> <div class="ds-list"><strong>1.</strong> (Life Sciences & Allied Applications / Biology) any substance containing nutrients, such as carbohydrates, proteins, and fats, that can be ingested by a living organism and metabolized into energy and body tissue</div><div class="ds-list"><strong>2.</strong> (Cookery) nourishment in more or less solid form as opposed to liquid form food and drink</div><strong>3.</strong> anything that provides mental nourishment or stimulus food for thought<br />
Today we would be looking at this subject of course in a spiritual perspective.<br />
<span style="color: #ff6600;">What is the spiritual food?</span><br />
<span style="color: green;">The Word of God and any thing that comes from it.</span><br />
<span style="color: #ff6600;">Who is spiritual food for?</span><br />
<span style="color: green;">Hungry Christians.</span><br />
<span style="color: #ff6600;">Who is a hungry Christian?</span><br />
<span style="color: green;">A Christian that is craving to know more about the things of God.</span><br />
<span style="color: #ff6600;">Who is God?</span><br />
<span style="color: green;"><strong>Elohim</strong> (אֱלהִים) is a plural formation of <em>eloah</em>, the latter being an expanded form of the Northwest Semitic noun <em>il</em> (אֱל, <em><a class="mw-redirect" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/El_%28God%29" title="El (God)">ʾēl</a></em> <sup><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Elohim#cite_note-0">[1]</a></sup>). It is the usual word for "<a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/God_%28word%29" title="God (word)">god</a>" in the <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hebrew_Bible" title="Hebrew Bible">Hebrew Bible</a>, referring with singular verbs both to the one <a class="mw-redirect" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/God_of_Israel" title="God of Israel">God of Israel</a></span> <span style="color: green;">God the Father+The son (Jesus Christ)+The Holy spirit=One God</span><br />
First of all let us examine ourselves... As we naturally desire for food when we are hungry, do we feel as hungry for the things of God?If not something is wrong with our spiritual life.<br />
First, there must be a healthy appetite.Healthy appetite and diet leads to a healthy life!<br />
<span style="color: #ff6600;">What disrupts ours Sprititual appetite?</span><br />
<span style="color: green;">*The Holy Spirit being absent from your life or you not allowing him to work in your life!Thats one of the main reasons.</span><br />
<span style="color: green;">*Tv,computer and generally anything that has to do with the media</span><br />
<span style="color: green;">*Books,Novels,and things in general that have nothing to do with the things of God</span><br />
<span style="color: green;">*Physical & spiritual tiredness/weekness</span><br />
<span style="color: green;">*Time</span><br />
<span style="color: green;">*The pleasures of this world</span><br />
<span style="color: green;">*Our sinful nature,the devil and his co-workers</span><br />
<span style="color: #ff6600;">What happens when you don't eat?</span><br />
<span style="color: green;">-> lack of food->malnourishment->deficiencies->starvation->suffering/pain->death.</span><br />
Second, there must be suitable food: “Desire the sincere milk of the Word that ye may grow thereby” (1 Peter 2:2).Today you might be sitting all day on the tv looking at christian sermons,reading a christian book and such and gain nothing!Why?Because some preachers don't teach the truth and what God want you to know from his word.The bible is not only about prosperity preaching and candy coated sermons.The word of God is as sharp as sword!And in order for the word of God to cut out the things in your life that are out of order, you must hear the truth that comes from the word of God which few preachers teach...and truth hurths.We need someone who can teach and deliver the sincere milk of the word of God.A spirit filled,matured and Man/Woman of God especially those who are still babies in the things of God.<br />
-Babies drink milk<br />
-Children eat food<br />
-old men can eat bones<br />
Third, there must be proper mastication.In proper mastication the food is duly mixed with our saliva, which is a provision of nature for aiding digestion, and it is the hurried gulping down of our food which prevents this. Now the counterpart of this in connection with spiritual nourishment is, that in order for the Word of God to do us good it must be mixed with faith.John 20:29-Jesus said to him, “Have you believed because you have seen me? Blessed are those who have not seen and yet have believed.” (ESV)<br />
Fourth,ask for the blessings of God,ask him to give you your daily bread & thank him for it as Jesus Christ did-Matthew 6:11 Give us this day our daily bread,''- Matthew 14:19 “And looking up to Heaven, He blessed, and brake, and gave the loaves to His disciples”<br />
<span style="color: purple;">And the most important develop your personal relationship with the Holy Spirit because without him reading the word of God,praying, doing the things of God, will just be another one routine.But let him do this throught you and let God accept your offering as a living sacrifice.</span></div><br />

<b><span style="color: #ff6600;"><img src="http://www.godblessafrica.com/images/stories/4-seasons-thumb6558640.jpg" /></span></b><br />
<span style="color: #339966;">Many of use either slow down in the thing of God or get quickened, according to the seasons.The cloudy days,rainy days make some too depressed,tired,boring to go to church or do some christian activities.While the sunny days or spring sweet fragrances make us want to go out for a walk,go to church or even avoid christian activities for other types of activities.My encouragment to you & me today is..to stay active in Christ.Don't let the seasons control your emotions or behaviour but allow the spirit of God to reinforse you with spiritual strenght at each an every season.Because we know according to</span><br />
<h3><a class="bibleref" href="http://www.gnpcb.org/esv/search/?passage=Genesis+8%3A22">Genesis 8:22</a> ESV</h3>While the earth remains, seedtime and harvest, cold and heat, summer and winter, day and night, shall not cease.”<br />
so it's up to us to change since the seasons never cease.<b><span style="color: #ff6600;">For those who feel unable to control themselfs or unable to do the things God wants us to do here are some steps to follow:</span></b><br />
1.Ask the Holy spirit to enable you to do the things of God and make you spiritual strong.Make him your best friend.<br />
2.Make the effort and allow God to do the rest..<br />
3.Fast (we would cover up on what is fasting in another article for those who don't know),read the bible,pray,go to church,participate in church immerse yourself in the things of God as much as you can.<br />
4.Encourage others to come closer to God as you also come closer to him by evangelizing,inviting them to your church & ofcourse encouraging & invite them to join <b>God Bless Africa</b> which will benefit them spiritually...We also want to encourage the members of God Bless Africa to stay active as we all grow in the Lord!<br />
<span style="color: #ff6600;">Lastly the word of God says in:</span><br />
<h2 id="passage_heading">Galatians 6:9 (English Standard Version)</h2><sup>9</sup>And<sup> </sup>let us not grow weary of doing good, for in due season we will reap, if we do not give up.</div><br />

Written by Glorious angel of <a href="http://vividthoughtsofglory.blogspot.com/">Vivid thoughts of Glory blog</a>©<br />
Please do not plagiarize.<br />
<br />
<b>Regular conditioning:</b>Gives a minimum amount of hydration,smooths/softens <span class="yshortcuts cs4-visible" id="lw_1321128211_0">hair strands</span> and coats them to protect from wind,static,sun e.t.c.<br />
<br />
<b>Deep conditioning:</b>Gives a very good amount of moisture to hair sometimes it also add strength and elasticity.Keeps hair soft and moist for longer.<br />
<br />
<b>How to deep condition:</b>After shampooing, apply a generous amount to damp hair. The longer and thicker your hair is, the more you'll have to use. Because this product is so thick and creamy, a little goes a long way. I find it better to apply it in sections to make sure that every <span class="yshortcuts cs4-visible" id="lw_1321128211_2">hair strand</span> is coated. As I apply to each section, I comb it through to make sure each hair is covered. I also pay close attention to the ends of my hair. Once you apply it all over, you can take a small amount and concentrate it on the ends if you want or the most damaged areas.<br />
<br />
Now the fun part. Cover your hair with a cheap plastic cap and use it with heat or without. If you have a hood or bonnet dryer at home, sit under warm heat for 10-25 minutes. Without heat, just cover your hair with a hot towel (towel putted in hot water and squeezed you need to do it a couple of times cause it get's cold quickly)and relax for 45 minutes to an hour. You can also use a hair steamer without the plastic cap.After that, completely rinse the conditioner out and enjoy the feeling of your hair ^_^<br />
<br />
(Actually some people claim that deep conditioning doesn't add any extra conditioning to your hair, but since i'm not sure about it i still do.) <br />

The products in these regime may be hard to get in the EU or outside the US in such case i'll probably suggest other products,<br />
<i>Please do not plagiarize.</i><br />
<br />
<br />
To moisturize your hair use something cheap like silk elements silken child <span class="yshortcuts cs4-visible" id="lw_1321126455_0">conditioner</span>. <a href="http://www.sallybeauty.com/Silken-Child-Conditioner/SBS-373010,default,pd.html?cgid=Hair03" rel="nofollow">http://www.sallybeauty.com/Silken-Child-…</a><br />
<br />
or something little bit more expensive:<a href="http://www.sallybeauty.com/repair-creme/SBS-373740,default,pd.html?cgid=Hair03" rel="nofollow">http://www.sallybeauty.com/repair-creme/…</a><br />
<br />
When your hair is breaking or once a month use nutress protein pck to strengthen your hair. <a href="http://www.sallybeauty.com/Nutress-Protein-Pack/SBS-151000,default,pd.html?cgid=Hair03-05" id="yui_3_3_0_1_1321126446653400" rel="nofollow">http://www.sallybeauty.com/Nutress-Protein-Pack/SBS-151000,default,pd.html?cgid=Hair03-05</a><br />
<br />
To deep condition your hair use organic root stimulator replenishing conditioner (smells really nice is something you must try).<br />
<br />
<a href="http://www.sallybeauty.com/ORS-Replenishing-Conditioner/SBS-311223,default,pd.html" id="yui_3_3_0_1_1321126446653397" rel="nofollow">http://www.sallybeauty.com/Organic-Root-Stimulator-Olive-Oil-Replenishing-Conditioner-12.25-oz./SBS-311223,default,pd.html</a><br />
Try to avoid alcohol denat/isopropyl or lanolin and mineral oil.<br />
<br />
so now what to do:<br />
<br />
<b>1.Choose 2 days out of the week to shampoo!</b>The <b>one day you will cowash</b> which mean shampoo with conditioner here is how to do it: (Wet your hair, and start shampooing with the conditioner. Use globs of it. Don’t worry about using too much. (use a cheap one like suave or Vo5 strawberries and cream) You almost cant. Use about a quarter size in the front, the top and on each side and the back. Concentrate on rubbing it into your scalp. Do not rub it into the lengths of your hair. You can apply it to the length of your hair like normal conditioner, but don’t rub. You scalp should be slick and entirely covered with conditioner. Put your hair up into a shower cap or something to keep it out of the way. Your hair has to sit for a few minutes with the conditioner on it to do its work. Go on about your shower business and rinse your hair last. RINSE VERY WELL! Rinse longer than you think you should. If you feel its necessary, add your regular conditioner to your ends and rinse again.<br />
That’s it!<br />
<br />
<b><span style="color: #38761d;">So what’s different? Your hair will feel really soft, even when it’s wet. You may worry that your hair will be limp but it wont. (just use a light conditioner that wont weight down your hair) .</span></b><br />

Then<b> the other day you will shampoo </b>(with a regular shampoo) you should also do a deep conditioning treatment organic root stimulator..... or another good hair mask.Apply it to wet towel blotted hair ,cover with a shower cap and leave it for an hour without heat or 15-30 min under a hooded dryer.Then rinse and proceed with styling.

Each day you shampoo I'll recommend you either rollerset or air dry (we want to lessen the direct heat usage which means flat irons and blowdryers).You can also do braids with or without extensions (preferably without) to give your hair a break but don't do it tightly.You can moisturize any day anytime your hair feels dry i'll suggest you wet it a bit before moisturizing.Or apply a little oil like wheat germ oil (rich in vitamins and ceramides).Before rollersetting you should you one of the 2 moisturizer i suggested (get one of them) you can also apply a little serum or oil but be light handed so that your hair wont get greasy.Also take a picture of your hair length now and after 3 or 4 months of taking care of it to see the difference.<br />
