An exciting tradition, The ESSENCE Music Festival®, began in 1995 as a celebration of the 25th birthday of ESSENCE Magazine, July 4th weekend in New Orleans. Three days of cultural activities and three nights of performances by some of our greatest African-American artists made the Festival a success.

Heat Protectants During the Summer

I use heat protectant creams during the summer, to protect my hair from the heat and harmful rays of the sun. The particular brand I use makes my hair soft and easy to detangle;its a great sealant.

If you decide to use it , I recommend that you apply it to slightly damp hair, then style. Apply to hair before twisting for great twist-out, or before bantu knoting. The effect will be luscious,poofy hair. I said "poofy", not frizzy.

L'Oreal Studioline Hot Straight can be found at drug store, but I found this one on clearance in my local Albertson's.
