Last Saturday, Scarlett Rocourt, creator of Wonder Curl, launched two new products to add to her amazing collection of hair care goodies at Meko New York Natural hair Care Spa in Orange, NJ. Say hello to the Detoxifying Clay Cleanser and Restoring Hair Treatment. With the assistance of hair care professional and Meko New York owner Simeko Watkins-Hartley, Scarlett showed us how the Clay works to cleanse the hair and scalp of impurities, detangles and conditions the hair all at once. The Restoring Hair Treatment contains shea butter, avocado butter, EVOO, tamanu oil and hair vitamins which penetrate the hair to strengthen from within to help revitalize dry kinks and curls. While we waited to see the results of these new products, we chatted, sipped on a few drinks and nibbled on these tasty cupcakes from Frostin Bake Company. YUMMERS!

It contains no petroleum, mineral oil, beeswax, lanolin, parabens, sulfates, silicones or harsh chemicals and is fragrance-free. WooHOO!! As I applied the Whipped, I immediately bellowed the famous Coming to America quote: “What is this VELVET?!” LOL! I couldn’t believe how smooth it was. It was like… butta!…
