Andre Walker Make Peace with Your Hair

Make Peace with Your Hair is the hair care line of Grammy Award winning hair stylist, Andre Walker. Their Q-Oil Quench-Essential Oil is made from virgin argan oil. As you may know from my previous review, I am a huge fan of argan oil. I love adding just a bit of the oil to my roots to defrizz. I recommend using a very small amount - especially if you have flat or oily hair like mine.

The Andre Walker's Q-Oil is similar to Cecilia Wong's, but costs a portion of the price by volume. That said, if you don't have particularly thick and unmanageable hair, you can skip the pricey brands and just order pure argan oil for a truly affordable price.

Quench-Essential is Andre Walker's way of describing his favorite nourishment for hungry hair. Made from the purest Virgin Argan Oil of Morocco, this light, easy to use oil absorbs instantly into the hair, creating amazing shine. Your hair will be easier to manage, stronger, and smoother with just a little Q-Oil applied to your driest areas every day. Comes in a convenient dispenser for just the right amount.

Andre Walker also produces a Total Keratin Obsession Deep Conditioning Pak. It works as well as most professional deep conditioners. My only complaint is the packaging. The packet allows for two applications, but the packaging makes it too difficult to store. If you're going to get this, buy the jars not the packet.

How do you like to manage your hair when it is dry or frizzy? Do you use oils or deep conditioners? Any secrets to keep your hair in top shape?

Hair style tutorial: French roll twist and pin how to

Hair style tutorial: French roll twist and pin how to

French rolls were a huge trend on the red carpet so far this season and here’s a twist & pin version I’ve been wearing for a while. 

I love this hairstyle for when I don’t have time to blowdry my hair. It’s easy to do in wet hair and means my hair dries smoothly with a nice wave through it. This is another fabulous hairstyle for after the gym in the morning as a great work hairstyle. 

This is my third day hair after a brilliant style by the Follicle Oracle so this is also great hairstyle to hide the kinks and get another wear out of your straight hair.

Hair product tips

• Starting with wet hair? Run some Moroccan Oil through your hair from midlenths to your ends.
• If your hair is a little dry you may want to use a serum to smooth down any flyaways.

Step by step

1. Pin back your fringe, or the front section of your hair. I like a little bit of height but not too much of a bump.
2. Taking a section from each side of your hairline and bring together into a twist at the back of your head.
3. Twist the section around your finger and pin into a small bun
4. Repeat steps 2 & 3 until all your hair is twisted and pinned into a line.
