Fall is here and it's time to bring out the leather jackets, calf-high boots and new hair products for the coming weather! Are you ready? I know I am, fall is my favorite season and not just because it's my birth season also, but because it's my favorite time to try new things with my hair! With the lack of humidity in the air from the summer climate, I get to try new hair styles and products that wouldn't necessarily work in hotter, more humid weather.

1. Jamaican Black Castor Oil
I'm no stranger to castor oil, it was one of the oils I used when I first chopped all my relaxer hair off and it helped to re-grow my badly thinning edges in a fairly short amount of time. The thing about castor oil is that it's pretty thick, and my scalp sweats a lot during the summer. I've only used a generic castor oil but the Jamaican Black castor oil has been received so well by both women that wear their hair natural and those that don't that I was inclined to purchase a bottle.

2. Shea Moisture Nourishing Hair Color System
I have to admit, I'm one of those girls that colors her hair at home. Yep, I've been self-coloring my hair for a long time and other than a really bad hair breakage problem from coloring my hair way too light many years ago, I'm not intimidated by at-home hair coloring. That being said, I've wanted to try a red or orange hue for the fall. Shelly of Glam Natural Life shared her results with using the coloring system and completely sold me! Keep in mind, I am not recommending that anyone attempt to color their hair themselves unless consulting with a professional first.
