Yesterday Preepoo'd with Affim 5 in 1 wh heat
Poo: Nuetrogena triple moisture
DC: Silicon Mix Bambu wh heat
I have to remember to do my scalp massages,theres been some MAJAH slacking in that dept:nono:
 
I tried a clear shine glaze today and I would say I do see some gloss. My hair was also easier to detangle.

The instructions say to use it a few times a week, or as a weekly treatment, but I will only use it once or twice a month. I'm concerned that it may have some hidden harmful ingredients in it.

Has anyone in this board tried any of these types of products. If so, what was your experience?
 
Hair Update

I have gotten lazy on the boards, and I am very much in need of a trim. Here's and update from MarchFoto.jpg

The red sweater pic is from March, and here I am two months later... What the f&%# happened? My hair grew like two inches I guess. I have been just bunning and using the Wild Hair Growth oil my sister bought for me in New York. I guess it's helping :D I am really surprised. I haven't straightened or blown my hair out since that time. Wow!

P.P.S. I promise I don't work for the company. If you have seen my last few posts here you will see that I got a few different tings to try while I was in NY, and have mostly stuck to the WHGO and Infusium 21. My hair has never grown this fast in my life. I am in shock as I post this.

Is it able to be bought online? And dw, it's natural to say which product one likes. It helps others :)
 
In the US I am pretty sure you can find it at most beauty supply stores. If you are in Europe... ? When my bottle is finished I'll have my sister ship me another from NY. But really. Having thought over my regime it could be something else. I also have neglected my hair a bit. I have been washing 2-3 times a week on average, and sometimes remembering to take my vitamins. OK, maybe it's just the hair oil. I was already doing low manipulation/bunning. Maybe a hormonal spurt? I like the smell of the oil and it has been the only thing tha has gotten rid of my itchy scalp which is why I was consistent. I am usually not great with consistency.

I'm mid-process of flat ironing my hair and decided to use my cantu flat iron spray on the last section of the back . It won't even straighten !!!!! This stuff is so sticky and I think I didn't shake it up enough ... But I'm frustrated because one side is smooth and the other is a tangled mess !!! Help me ? lol :(((
 
I went to the salon to get a tough-up today and it turned out beautifully. My hair is flowing looks and feel healthy. I go to a Dominican salon. They are really good with relaxers. I had them give me a roller set but I did not allow them to use a blow dryer or flat iron.

I am well on the way of achieving my goal of APL possibly by the end of summer.
 
I tried that Cantu mess before and ended up having to wash my hair all over again. My hair was stiff, dry and just an overall MESS.
 
Just finished washing and conditioning my synthetic box braids.
It was a success!!!

I have them tied down with a satin scarf drying now.

I will wash again in 2 more weeks.

These are the easiest PS I think I've ever had!

What Kind of hair did you use for your braids? Been thinking of getting braids for the summer.
 
I took out my weave today.... gave myself a protein treatment and now sitting with flat twists..... Not sure if I will make APL ladies.... I am transitioning and by the way my hair behaved today I am going to most likely trim a good 2-3 inches to avoid me doing a BC since my goal is to transition for 2 years.... I was really hoping to retain length during this transition but the two textures and at odds and my natural hair sees to be winning... I do not want to officially drop out but I will keep you ladies posted..... :sad:
 
Just gave my hair a much needed shampoo and light boost of protein. I'm getting closer to APL but I know I will need a 2" trim soon. I'm still hopeful that I will make APL by the end of the year.
 
Checking in. So after coming back from my three month hiatus of not taking good care of my hair, it is once again thriving (about a month strong). I've started steaming again, paying closer attention to my moisture needs (mainly pre-pooing) and upping my ceramide usage. I used PBN Chocolate Hair Smoothie tonight as the conditioner for my steam prepoo on dry hair and I must say that cupuacu butter (5th ingredient) is so the bomb for my hair. I also have PBN Cupuacu Butter that I've used to moisturize my hair and when smoothing my buns and my hair INSTANTLY has or restores moisture.

"Cupuacu butter not only acts as a sealant but also has the ability to absorb water, thus restoring moisture to dry hair." ~ www.blackgirllonghair.com

Full APL late summer/early fall... Here I come.
 
I've seriously been slacking on taking vitamins .. But one thing I can say is that my hair is doing fine and... NO breakage at all . Never thought I see the day lol
 
Just flat ironed and trimmed my hair, not doing flips over the length....currently solid CLB in back, SL on sides, and top lip in front. I need about 3-4 inches to make it to APL in back.
