I DID A BAKING SODA/CONDITIONER WASH AND...

[DDTexlaxed]

I am able to detangle my hair without ripping out my progress. It also lessened the single strand knots! This alone has helped me deal more easily with my natural hair. I am so relieved because my hair was suffering from my detangle sessions. I will be doing this maybe once or twice a month. It also made my hair really soft. I remembered an old thread about it and decided to do it today! Very pleased at the results of my hair. I can easily twist and easily part. Something I was unable to do before.

I use baking soda and sunflower oil as a pre poo when I take my braids down. baking soda works wonders. I love it.

They say it's good to use Apple Cider Vinegar/water mixture rinse afterward to close your cuticle after a baking soda wash.

That's great. I also wash my hair with baking soda. I don't have as many tangles and my hair doesn't feel so stripped but it does feel clean.
