I live in Central Valley area
1) 3c ish
2) Texlaxed/relaxed
3) Hawaiian Silky no lye no mix relaxer.
Ion color defense shampoo or Nexxus Therappee,
Neutrogena Recovery Mask conditioner, Paul Mitchell Tea Conditioner, Olive Oil, Herbal Essence Long Term Relationship Leave In Conditioner
4) Pre Poo with Cholesterol and olive oil, shampoo, condition, leave in conditioner, and olive oil. My conditioners are really good so I consider them to be my deep conditioner. I use a reconstructor or protein treatment one week prior to a relaxer and after I neutralize my hair after my relaxer.
 
1) 3b
2) I think I'm 90% natural w/ a lil bit of texlaxed ends left
3) I like washing w/ Paul Mitchell Tea Tree Shampoo, and I rotate between various conditioners (check out my siggy for other products)
4) I baggy every night w/ Suave Humectant and rinse in the morning. I put in a leave-in condish and seal w/ Castor Oil then I put my hair into a bun or updo. I wash and dc on Saturdays. I've been inconsistent lately with my MN mix. When I remember, I throw some BT in there.

I'm not sure what I'm going to do when it gets too cold and rainy to walk out the door with a wet head. I think I may weave it up :yep:.
For Summer, co-washing is definitley the way to go :lick:.

My hair is natural. I've worn it naturally curly and straight with no problems. I would say do what will help you grow your hair the best. I don't think one is necessarily better than the other. I don't find our weather to be that humid.
 
1) 3b/3c
2) Relaxed
3) Keracare poos and cons, coconut oil, ORS moisturizing lotion,
4) pre-poo, wash, dc, rollerset or air dry weekly. mostly protective styling. flat iron only special occassions or at relaxer touch-up. Relax every 12 - 16 weeks.

San Diego in 'da house!
 
I feel all alone. I am in northern California. I am natural (but wear my hair straight a majority of the time. I think the weather in California maes it easy to wear a lot of different styles whether you are relaxed or natural. For me this will be the year of the rollerset. Instead of getting a Pibbs, I got a pebco and I love it!
 
Wow - I'm so surprised at the number of ladies from California here. I am in the LBC - Long Beach - in the Bluff Heights area.

1. 4b
2. relaxed between shoulder and collar bone length
3. phytojoba (poo and con, phyto 7 leave in, camellia oil), icon inner home for dc, and a variety of interesting products from time to time
4. well, see what happened was... i used to keep to this ultra cool, super effective regime, and my hair was beautiful and growing like crazy. And then I got a little crazy - too much work, too much family drama, too much everything with me taking the back seat. But it's a new year, and I'm back in the game. pre-poo, wash, condition, leave in, oil, and bun city. I really want to get back to the deep conditioning on Wednesdays and Saturdays, so I joined the deep conditioning challenge.

So ladies of Cali - I need some help - serious help. I know how to roller set my hair - been doing it since I was a teen - and since that time, I know ONLY ONE STYLE - one. I hate going to salons and sitting and waiting for hours and hours and hours - so I do my hair myself. I go see this cute little asian guy to give me a trim when I need one because he does exactly what I ask - I say 1/4 inch and the man trims one quarter inch exactly - who knew there were stylists who followed directions!?? But here's the thing - I want to learn to wrap, so I can wear a style more than one day. I have good products. My hair is in good shape. I just don't know how to do anything with it. HELP!!!

4) Routine
I wash my hair and deep condition my hair twice a week. I do not use any direct heat and I air dry my hair. I moisturize my hair twice a day. I wear my hair down or in a puff. :grin::grin:
 
I'm from Northern California

2. Natural
3. Too many products, but I like profectiv, joico, Alaffia, coconut oil, olive oil and dabur amla oil.
4. I wash my hair every one to two weeks, let it dried naturally and press it. Then after a couple of days I will oil my scalp and I usually wear my hair in a ponytail. Every other wash I use protein in my hair (usually an Avocado or Mayonnaise and egg).
