My goodness it has taken me two years and the help of you wonderful ladies to pin down a routine that keeps my chronically dry and porous hair, soft and moisturized. I finally feel like I am on a healthy hair journey. THANKS SOOOO much for all of your advice.

Ok, so I have been doing henna/indigo every 6 weeks. I dc on dry hair with elucence and coconut oil, I then rinse that out and put more elucence in while I shower. I rinse and then do Roux mendex for 3 minutes followed by roux porousity control for one minute. I rinse with cool water. I add some Redken Extreme anti-snap, Long-Aid activator mixed with Miss Jessies buttercreme. I seal with my oil mixture of bjco, wheatgerm oil and coconut oil. I put fat twist in and go to bed. I untwist and lightly spritz with my spritz; water, honeyquat, veg. glycerin and argan oil. Sounds like a lot but it really isn't once it becomes routine.
This is what is working for me but my hair is very fine and VERY dry! I never imagined that I could have soft moisturized hair that lasts for days. The main thing was getting control of the porosity issue. I am now looking forward to retaining some length. I will do my first bkt next week. Hths someone.
