NaturallyCurly: Please introduce yourself!

Cassidy Blackwell: Hey Hey!  My name is Cassidy and I am a P-R-O-U-D naturalista!  I’m also  the Marketing & PR Associate/Global Editor of TextureMedia.

NC: How and when did you start embracing your curls or have you always enjoyed/embraced your curls?

CB: It’s been about 2 years for me since I really started loving my teeny-weeny coils (named Lola”>.  It was truly love at first sight- I haven’t looked back since!

NC: What is your current routine/regimen?

CB: I rarely stray from wash’n’gos and I like to my routine very very simple.  I wash and style my hair about every 2-3 days and make sure to sleep every single night with a sleep cap.

NC: So from start to finish, on a curly day, what’s your process?

CB: I will cleanse with a gentle shampoo or a cleansing creme then condition with a moisture rich conditioner.  If needed, I’ll detangle with the Ouidad Double Detangler (with the conditioner in!”>.  Then I’ll follow with some sort of styling product.  I’ve been really into products that act as a leave-in and styler all in one bottle.  As I said, I like to keep it simple and the more I can cut down to just a single product, the better for me!  Then I SHAKE, SHAKE, SHAKE my hair to fluff and set my coils and VOILA I’m done!
