Okay, so I slapped some Queen Helen garlic conditioner mixed with garlic infused coconut oil on my head. I applied some garlic oil, which I spiked with rosemary, cinnamon, tea tree, and orange essential oils directly to my scalp. Then I mixed the rest of it with the garlic conditioner, put on a plastic cap and then put on a heating cap for 30 mins.
I cowashed after rinsing it out, dried my hair and then applied henna (a mixture of henna, conditioner, peppermint oil, coconut oil, rosemary & peppermint tea). I'm sitting with the henna on my head now. Pretty soon I'll rinse it out, co wash a couple times, and then I'll deep condition for about an hour or so with Jessicurl Weekly Deep Treatment, honey, aloe vera gel, extra virgin olive oil, and yogurt.
I'll probably apply afro detangler for a leave-in, moisturize with QBOH, seal with coconut oil and then twist up with afroveda cocolatte moisture mask for the week. I'm still debating whether or not to give myself a scalp massage with afroveda shikaikai oil.
At any rate, I ordered some alter ego garlic treatment and a whole bunch of other stuff from blubeez and beauty of new york, so I'll be trial running a bunch of different conditioners over the next couple of weeks. One thing I'm definitely going to do this week is steam DC my hair. I find that after a henna, my hair enjoys a good steam treatment.
Happy Growing Ladies!!
