Hi! Ya'll know I'm 25+ weeks post texturizer and I am hanging on. I've been doing the braids thing to help control the NG and when I'm out of my braids I do protective styling. I've been bunning it up for the past week and a half, I do co-washes to keep my hair soft and moisturized. As you all know, co-washing can lead to build up on the scalp, Well my scalp was on FIRE Wednesday night and I didn't know what to do. Co-wash and hope the scrubbing my scalp would get rid of the itch or go ahead and do a full on shampoo and conditioner wash, well I decided on the shampoo because I was itching non stop for 30 minutes. Then I had a light bulb moment ! When we get our hair relaxed most of us have some sort of conditioner on the ends and relax the NG only, Why not try that with my shampoo. So I put on tons of moisturizing conditioner on the ends of my hair to where the NG ended and I proceeded to wash my scalp and NG with shampoo and the conditioner was on the rest of the lenghts. Let me tell you ladies my scalp felt so fresh and clean and my ends were like butta ! I will be doing this from now on, I taught I would share this with everyone, especially those stretching out their relaxers and are having a time with the NG...this really helped and I'm working with 3+ inches of NG and it's been a breeze!
