My Review of the PuffCuff






Hey, my blessed naturals!
I've been wanting to try the PuffCuff forever, so I bought it on Amazon earlier this month. Check out my review below!

Product: PuffCuff (5-inch Original size) hair clamp. Other sizes include 1.625 inches wide,  2.5 inches wide, and 3.125 inches wide

Place: Amazon

Price: $16.49 plus $3.99 for shipping

Claims (from packaging): "No Headache
                                               No Hair Damage"
                
                                              "THE Only HAIR CLAMP 
                                              FOR THICK, CURLY, TEXTURED HAIRtm"







My Review  

I really wish the PuffCuff was less expensive. I expected to pay anywhere from $10.00 to $15.00, so itt was around that amount at $16.49. After seeing that the product was a lot like a rounded banana clip, I really would have liked to pay closer to $10.00 plus shipping. I also expected the plastic to be thicker. 



PuffCuff directions on the back of package
I love the fact that the PuffCuff included instructions with pictures on the back. The first step was to moisturize and stretch your hair. Since I did that the night before, I just applied coconut oil on my hair after removing the bands.

2. I used a ponytail holder and headband (2 separate times) to gather my hair in order to put it in the PuffCuff.

1BlessedNatural: I decided to keep the headband on because my hair was frizzy. 







Bottom Line

I thought the PuffCuff was ok in my hair. It does live up to its claims. I didn't have to worry about a headache or damage. I forgot it was in my hair. I could've tried the next smaller size (3.125 inches wide) to get a tighter fit. I tried removing the product and moisturizing my hair with a moisturizer and water but my hair was frizzy and the PuffCuff felt loose in my hair. So, I kept the headband on. 

One of the things I really like about the PuffCuff is that you can sleep in it. Sometimes, I just don't feel like doing anything to my hair at the end of the day. If it's in a puff with the PuffCuff, I can just put a scarf around the base of my head and go to sleep without worrying about my hair being pulled from a band. That's a plus!

Aborigines and Melanesians: Naturally Blonde Hair and Dark Skin

Melanesia: Solomon Island girls (photo courtesy of the -cropped-Flickr- Australian Civil-Military Centre http://www.acmc.gov.au/ ) Naturally blonde hair is often associated with white or Caucasian people. However, there are groups of dark skin people who have naturally blonde hair also. Some of these groups include the Aboriginal Australians (Aborigines) and the Melanesians. I love this fact because it goes against the idea that one group or culture must look a certain way or stay in a certain category.  The Aborigines have dark skin. Some of them also have blonde hair which tends to be straight, but can be curly. Scientists first believed they were descendants of Eurasians. In 2011, scientists found evidence against the theory from a sample of natural hair. The sample of hair, which was said to be more than 100 years old, helped scientists determine that Aborigines were descendants of Africans. The New York Times confirmed this finding: "The Abo...

Asian Hair Trend: Afro Perms

Asian afro perm (photo courtesy of www.afrohair.net) When we talk about the topic of natural hair, we often talk about African-Americans or Black people perming their hair to look more like Caucasian or straight hair. But, what about people of other races attempting to make their hair kinky or textured like that of African-Americans? Afro perms, along with other Black hairstyles have been a long time trend in Asia. Because Asian hair grows naturally straight, the afro perm gives the hair a textured look. The afro perm is not an actual relaxer or perm kit, it's the use of perm rods to make the hair curly. The beautypot.com says, " An afro perm is made by not straightening the hair. It is made by creating hair bonds that make the hair curl. The hair stylist makes the hair into a new shape, using perming rods or rollers, and allows the new shape to develop ."

Priscilla Shirer Shares Her Natural Hair Story and Tips on IG Live!

Actress and minister of Going Beyond Ministries Priscilla Shirer shared her natural hair story and secrets on IG Live today. After receiving numerous questions about her long thick natural hair, she decided it was time to do a video. Shirer said, "I've decided that sometimes, to a woman, hair = ministry." Shirer started getting a perm at about 13 years old. During previous years, her mother would use the hot comb to straighten her hair. When Shirer was 24 years old, she noticed a circular patch of hair that had broken off on the side of her head. After she visited a doctor and they plucked a few strands from different parts of her hair, the doctor concluded that Shirer's hair was growing in healthy. However, it was something that she was doing to her hair that was making it break off. As a result, her doctor told her to stop relaxing her hair for 6 months. While driving home, Shirer had a breakthrough. She originally had no intention of following the doctor...
