Hi,
I haven't posted in the hair forum for awhile now. I pretty much have my reggie down and my hair is behaving.
My reggie is as follows:
Cowash 3-4 times weekly...evey other day when stretching.
Shampoo 2 times a month. **Clarify as needed**
I DON'T DC....
I trim every 6 months. (April and October)
I relax every 10 -12 weeks.
I use light protein as needed...hair doesn't really care for it.
If I feel like it, I will use Brahmi, Maka, or Amla...with co-washes.
I do low manipulation. Braidouts/ Twistouts...Pinups..Rollersets.
I airdry 99% of the time...in 2-4 braids/twists.
My style of choice are pinned up braid/twistouts.
I flat iron for length checks...and special occasions.
I moisturize and seal 2-3 x weekly (fine hair).
Summer: Vegetable Glycerin & Aloe Vera Juice (mositurize) and Paul Mitchell Super Skinny Serum (seal)
Winter: Castor Oil & Aloe Vera Juice (moisturize)and Paul Mitchell Super Skinny Serum (seal)
Satin scarf nightly, or whenever I rest/lay my head down.
Wide Tooth Comb....I never brush my hair.
I detangle in the shower with a head full of condish under running water.
