What are your before bed rituals? I shower, section my hair, put in my products and then put six or seven different braids in it. I look like Medusa.
What products do you use? Shea butter, a curl enhancing cream, Shea moisture and Curl Goddess Gel
How long does it take for you to style your hair in the morning? All I do in the morning is take out the braids and then I’m done. If I were to shower in the morning though it would take a good 20 minutes.
How often do you straighten your hair? I used to like it better straight until I knew how to style my hair correctly and then I embraced my big hair. So I don’t straighten it.

What are your before bed rituals? Nothing but I typically shower at night.
What products do you use? Shampoo and conditioner… does that count?
How long does it take to style your hair in the morning? I don’t style my hair in the morning. I just let it be.
How often do you straighten your hair? Every once in a blue moon, I straighten my hair. But it would probably take half an hour. I don’t know the last time I straightened my hair.
Grace Pritchett: @GracePritchett (Photo Media, French minor)
What are your before bed rituals? I always take a shower in the morning so I typically just put my hair up before bed.
What products do you use? I don’t use any products for my hair other than shampoo and once a week I condition. I started using a honey shampoo because it’s supposed to strengthen your hair.
How long does it take you to style your hair in the morning? I just shower and let my hair air dry. Air drying takes about an hour or two because my hair is so thick.
How often do you straighten your hair? I used to straighten my hair in high school but it would take at least an hour. I stopped straightening it a couple years ago because I decided that I liked my curly hair better and it was really damaging to my natural hair.
