I'm here to keep track of my hair progress, for both health and growth - I don't take a lot of pics nor do a lot with my hair, I'm really low maintenance with that.
This is the closest I've come in a while to some sort of consistent regimen. It seems to be working so I'll keep it going for awhile. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- Playing it by ear going forward as far as when to touch up. I'll let my hair tell me when I can no longer style it and breakage and/or shedding becomes excessive.
I do like to go for at least 12 weeks, seems to work (14 weeks max)
----------------------------------------------------------------------------- PRE-POO CONDITIONING MIX: SHIKAKAI OIL VATIKA OIL ORS HAIR MAYO
I generally like to leave this combo on hair overnight, then rinse out - eiher cw, use shampoo bar or clarify (see below)
"SHAMPOO"/CLEANSING: I utilize a alma/coconut bar for washing my hair (I will occasionally use diluted CON green label and use a clarifying poo once a month)
Once done with cleansing - deep condition with main conditioners, most of the time in combination - the hair seems to really like it..and what the hair likes is what matters most.
MAIN CONDITIONERS: Pantene Breakage Defense Mask AVEDA Brilliant AVEDA DR Treatment Joico Moisture Recovery Tropical White Rain Coconut Conditioner
Use more occasionally: Neutrogena Daily Deep Conditioner VO5 Tea Therapy Conditioner (Nourishing Chamomile) Kiehl's Intensive Repair Conditioner Phytospecific Intense Nutrition Mask
Protein Treatments/Reconstructors/Conditioners: Aphogee 2 minute reconstructor Aphogee Treatment for Damaged Hair Aphogee Keratin & Green Tea Restructurizer UBH Conditioner
Leave Ins: Sunsilk Straighten Up (main leave in) Africa's Best Organics Leave in Liquid Hair Mayonaise Fermodyl 619 Ojon Restorative Treatment
For rollersetting: Lacio Lacio is the truth :)
Serums: ORS Olive Oil and NTM Healing Serum Not sure if this is considered a serum, but I love CHI Silk Infusion
Moisturizers: Hair2Heaven's End All (will have to find a substitute soon as production has halted) Kids Organic Moisturizing Detangling Lotion UBH Creme Lotion
Dove Replenishing Mist - Use moreson now if doing a braidout on a daily basis; sometimes with a mixture of World of Curls and Kids Organic Detangling Lotion [during the summer]
Styling Aids: Dark & Lovely Beautiful Beginnings Kids Edge Tamer and Protector [use pretty much everyday - love it] Garnier Sleek & Shine Styling Cream Garnier Brilliante Water Based Styling Wax
FAVORITE AND BEST RELAXER (IN MY WORLD ANYWAY) - PHYTORELAXER!!!!!!
