I have been trying this new regimen from a Japanese book. So far, awesome. I started it before I got a sew in and continued using it. I take my hair down this weekend.
Planning my hair treatment for some awesome curls. This has really changed what I thought was my curl pattern. Super excited to get this weave out.
 
I put Silk Elements moisturizer on my hair and Mane n Tail conditioner on the ends before putting my hair in a bun. Took my hair out (and off lol) and it feels amazing.
 
Moisturized with Paul Mitchell "the conditioner" tonight and sealing with African Pride growth oil. I don't think I'll wash until next week. I haven't experienced build up just yet.

I know, right?! I've actually used lotion on my hair in the past, but never this particular one. This defined my curls like no leave-in I've ever used.

So this weekend, I plan to buy some for home and use it on my whole head and see how that goes.

Oooooo let me know how it goes! Did you feel the need to seal?
 
I watching this talk show and this older white lady said she hasn't cut her hair since she was in high school. That had to be over 40 years ago. She is waist length or almost there. That's not long at all. The talk show host cut her hair and said it was very healthy. I see a lot of Flyaways but it is thick for her age. The show is called bethenny by the way
 
Trimmed my hair ends where feeling crispy and as I want braids end of the month it's better to get those ends off now


I'll do a heavy protein treatment and conditioner tomorrow or Saturday
 
Wooo hooooo!!! Almost at wash day Saturday! You ladies just don't know how difficult this was for me lol. It's weird though because when I was relaxed and slacking off I went two weeks without washing no problem, I guess because then I had already reached my goal. Oh well come on Saturday!

It does seem like that weekly wash takes forever. I use to wash every two weeks before my HJ and when I just started weekly washes I was like this is too much

It really does feel like forever. I'm itching to try my new regimen to see how my hair reacts to it as well as some new products.
 
I flat iron my hair from root to tip for the first time in months. Oh why oh why did my Sedu start to get a short. I have had since 2010, I have a H2Pro which is good but it snags my hair. I will now be stalking Folica for a good sale so that I can get another one. I am so glad Mother's Day is coming up so I should catch a good sale soon.

It uses cleasing waters that you make instead of shampoo and moistureizing teas which I use with a deep conditioner. My curls seem to likethis much better than co--washing, WEN, ect. And there are oil hair treatments to "pre-poo but only for 10 to 30 minutes.

They pre poo I use is Seasame oil. I never thought to use it before, I already had some so it wasn't an investment. The book has recipes for thinning hair oil treatments as well.

I have use two shampoos the rice water shampoo. You use the first 2 rinse from rinse and pour it over your head a few times. Or the Olive oil/aduzki been power shampoo. This is a light oiling then add powder rinse add dry powder rinse.

The Moisture tea I'm tried is Soybean tea, my hair really liked this one. I'm going to do a licoire tea rinse this weekend which is supposed to be good for curly hair. Will post results.

Since I've been in a Sewin I have continued the Rice water shampoo, soybean tea, and have been using camellia oil with regular conditioning.

I'm not trying to start a bang wagon, please don't start a bandwagon!

You forgot the 2 that have already adpated it and bought rice milk instead of using rice water. And the person who wants to know if its brown rice or white rice. Um, I don't eat rice can I use quinoa? :lo:

Thanks Bunmistress
 
I flat ironed my hair today since I had an interview. I think I have underestimated how coarse my hair is because I could not really get my roots straight to save my life! I'm talking more than 2 passes which I know is a no no but I can't get it straight at all.

My new growth looked like it was still throwing up gang signs. I used grape seed oil as a heat protectant. My hair looks a mess IMO and I ended up trimming half an inch off. Only mandatory positive here is that my hair grew a lot and at least my interview went well lol.
