So as the title suggests, I am 7 months into my HHJ. I am also one year (yay!) post relaxer, and I am absolutely estatic. I have never gotten this far on any other transition attempt ever before. I don't believe I'll go back to relaxed at all any time soon, if ever. The hair boards have really been invaluable to me and I can't believe where I am from where I came from.
My reggie (if you can call it that) is pretty simple. I don't operate on a time schedule I just listen to my hair and do what I want, when I need to. Here's an approximation of what I do.
1x- 3x per week Cowash with Tresemme Flawless Curls, Tressemme Naturals, AO HSR, and/or AO WC
Shampoo as needed, about once every 7-10 days with Elasta QP Creme Conditioning shampoo or Silk Elements Megasilk Shampoo
DC 1-3x weekly following whatever wash I feel my hair needs. I have been using Miss Keys 10-en-1, Keracare Humecto, and my AO products.
Clarify 1-2x monthly with ORS Olive Oil Creamy Aloe Shampoo (LOVE this)
Moisturize and seal at least 6 nights a week with NTM Silk Touch (I like it now), Qhemet Biologics Amla and Olive Heavy Cream or QB Burdock Root Butter Cream. I gave Chicoro's Ultimate Moisturizing Method a try and that was very nice, my hair had lots of moisture.
I seal with olive, jojoba, hempseed, wheat germ, or castor oil. I use all of these oils to pre poo, for the occasional oil rinse, for oil cleansing (for the skin) and also to enhance my DCs
I do not use heat on a regular basis, although this press got me tempted lol. I only use it to DC when I'm doing my own hair. I gave up on styling my natural hair (until late fall sometime, when I'll try again) and am rocking curly half wigs as a protective style. I don't plan on BC'ing anytime soon.
I know this thread is worthless without pics
but I can't for the life figure out how to upload/attach photos in the thread, my posting permissions apparently do not allow it
. So until one of you lovely ladies can give me the slow people's version of what to do, here's a link to my Hairlista album.

And hopefully someone will chime in on posting pics, because I can't see your hairlista album.
