I have struggled so much in so many different ways when it comes to my hair. Especially when is come to my edges. When I was in high school and I first cut my hair everything was fine, but when I went to college and started to experience real stress of life and being a young adult I started to experience some hair lost. I will never forget being in my dorm room and parting my hair for a new style I was doing and seeing a bald spot where my edges should be. Such a sad moment for my hair journey but i got through that and it grew back. Then after I had my son I had postpartum shading and my edges again, left me hanging and had to pray on my hair every night. When they finally grew back I wanted to start to try to spice them up a bit. I tried eco styler gel, got 2b and gorilla snot gel but none of them would hold my hair down the way I would see these girls on social media would have them. It was either I had the wrong gel or I just couldnโ€™t do it. After I found style factor edge booster I realized it wasnโ€™t me, it was the product. When I tell you that this gel has the best hold I have ever seen in my life I really am not lying. I love this pomade and I will never use anything else ever again. Itโ€™s just perfect!

When you find a great product you should always want to share it with other curly girls. Itโ€˜s rough out here, cause not everything works for everybody so I hope this helps you!







Bantu Knots was one of the first natural hair styles I tired after my big chop grew out a little. Still not quite ready for a high puff or bun I focused on my curls and making sure they were defined and hydrated. Learning how to do Bantu knots with natural hair is very simple, especially if you donโ€˜t plan on leaving them in as a style, you just want the curl.


First I like to start off on wet hair if I want tight curls. For loose curls donโ€™t wet your hair. Next Iโ€™m going to section and then part my hair to my liking. After separating your hair, take you first section of hair and apply your cream or gel. I used Curls Twist & Shout Cream (my affiliate link: https://amzn.to/3i0PYgy ) in my video tutorial down below. Then comb out your section gently after that start to twist the entire section of hair in one direction. When you twisted it tight enough it should naturally start to form into the bantu knot. As it does you should just go with it and help it along, twisting now in a circle or ball. When you get to the end piece of hair you should tuck it around the base part of the Bantu know so that it stays. Repeat those steps to each section.


Parting is only important when you want the bantu knots to be your hair style, everyone will see your parts, so you want to take your time. I almost never where just the Bantu knots so I just part freely so I wonโ€™t see lines in my afro
