Welcome to my hair log!

I've experienced several ups and downs in my hair care journey, and wish to impart some knowledge to those seeking healthy hair. My hair care regimen is very basic, because I have learned that less is definitely more in terms of keeping my locs in tip top shape. Below is my regimen in detail. Enjoy!

MY FAV PRODUCTS:

-Pantene Pro V Relaxed and Natural Shampoo & Conditioner
-Organic Root Stimulator Olive Oil Moisturizing Hair Lotion (ORS)
-Worlds of Curls Curl Activator Gel

REGIMEN:

-Wash hair once a week
-Conditioner wash & water rinse during the week as needed
-Trim ends every 4-8 weeks

For curly hair:
1. Apply ORS to towel-dried hair
2. Apply Worlds of Curl activator gel to scrunch curls into shape
3. Apply non-alcoholic gel to edges when pulling back into ponytail

For straight hair:
1. Wash & Condition hair
2. Apply a quarter-size amount of ORS to towel dried hair
3. Blow dry with comb attachment
4. Flat iron one-inch sections at a time on high heat

**Deep condition hair 1-4 times a month (either sit under hooded dryer or in steam room for 15 minutes to allow product to penetrate)
***Heat is applied no more than once a week.
