Wash Day
**Pre Poos: 1/2 can of coconut Milk, a good helping of coconut and olive oils, a cap ful of Amla oil, 1/2 cup of Keraphix, 1/2 cup of CPR, 3 tablespoons honey, some Jamican Black Castor Oil, and 1/4 cupTresseme conditioner (the blue label kind from dry hair). This mixture usually last me a month, and I keep it in the fridge so it won't go *bad.*
Or I mix 1/4 cup of coconut oil and 1/4 cup of JBCO with some CHI Silk Infusion and some NTM and put that in the night before wash day if my hair is feeling like it needs more moisture than protein. **Shampoo one a week and detangle with CON (with a capful of Amla and about a tablespoon of JBCO mixed in.
**DC with DPR-11 and Aloe Vera Cholesterol for about one hours, then another hour under the dryer. ____________________________________________________________________
Co-wash days
**I co-wash with a Suave conditioner, and then DC after with NTM Daily Deep Conditioner about every 2 days. Sometimes I use Herbal Essences instead of Suave (the pink kind for damaged hair).
**I don't comb my hair during the week. I wear it big and poufy/curly, or in a loose braidout. When I want a different style, I just co wash and smooth it down with my fingers. No combing.
**On wet hair, after conditioning I put coconut oil, Cantu Shea Butter, NTM smoothing serum, some JBCO and then Mango Butter on the ends and I either let it air dry loose, or in braids. ____________________________________________________________________ Moisturizing
**In the AM and PM I moisturize with coconut oil, Cantu Shea Butter and Mango Butter on the ends (in that order).
**The moisturizer I use during the day is the Sunsilk TLC Cream (cannot stand the smell) with some JBCO mixed in, and after I apply that some coconut oil.
**I moisturize in the AM, midday, and before bed. ____________________________________________________________________
Relaxer Day
*The week before: Hot Oil Treatment (olive, coconut) Aphogee Intensive Treatment for Damaged hair (stinks like pus and perfume).
*Then coconut milk, honey and DPR-11. Leave in overnight.
*Co-wash every other day that week.
*The week of: base with oil 2X a day for a week (and nothing else, no water, shampoo or anything).
*Day before, put conditioner on it (like a handful).
*Day of (a little oil, a little conditioner). Optimum came with a hair protectant package with it, and I added (half) of that to my hair as well.
*Add 2 tablespoons of EVOO and 1 tablespoon of DPR-11 to the relaxer
*Start relaxing at the thickest part of my hair (the crown, then the rest, then the kitchen, edges last (kitchen and edges only keep relaxer on them for like 3-5 mins).
*Pour neutralizer on my hair and let it sit for like 2 mins, and then wash. Then I shampoo with the neutralizer and then let it sit on my hair for 5-10 mins before I rinse.
*Then I neutralize like 15 times! I'm paranoid, I can't help it. Then when it's as white as I want it, I shampoo with CON and then with Porosity control Shampoo.
*(if I do a rinse, it's at this step). I've used Colourshines in CoffeeBeans and loved it. This time I tried Adore in clear and it gave me a great shine.
*Then I put on the Optimum Reconstructer for 20 mins
*Then I do Porosity Control conditioner, mixed with Keraphix for like 15 mins. No heat.
*Then I DC with DPR-11 with heat for an hr (or overnight).
*Then I blow dry on COOL with a round brush, and when I've done all parts of my hair, I go over the roots with the small tooth comb attachment of the blowdryer (using the heat this time).
*Before I use heat, I apply Turn Up the Heat heat protectant (Beyond the Zone), and Paul Mitchell Sleek and Shine Treatment. I used the Paul Mitchell on wet hair, and then BTZ when I used the comb attachment (its greasy).
Then I add some Motions leave in, put a little coconut oil and some Cantu Shea Butter on it, some Mango Butter on my ends, and wrap it up or braid it.
