My regimen!
I refused to change my regimen for years only because it worked for me in the past.
The main culprit being weaves, braids, and wigs! Braids worked for me in the past but not anymore! When I wore braids, I achieved good growth but when it came to take down the braids and wash my hair... HORROR!!! I would end up with a matted MOP!! I would then yank out or cut out the knots which led to breakage!
I resorted to wearing wigs, really suited my face, and looked cute but it made my hair line resede (sp) which is TERRIBLE!
Weaves..HAHAHA just EVIL!! Weaves made my scalp very sore, thinned my hair and also made it brittle not to talk of the itchiness
Stretching my relaxer touch up beyond 3 to 4 months (depending on NG) is a capital NO. I remember twice I stretched for 28 weeks and basically lost all the relaxed hair and was only left with the NG!
Although I cannot blame my lack of hair progress on my regimen alone, I had some major set backs which I stated in a thread some time ago.
I think my old regimen was a major cause of my no hair progress.
I must admit that I have regained my hair thickness due to the following, Viviscal, BT, and Kesini oil. I am still observing the results of KESINI OIL because I recently started using it but so far the results are positively scary!!
My little daughter whom I simply wash and deep condition her hair has retained a huge amount of her hair (She does not use any growth aids either). Her hair from the time I stopped relaxing it to the time she went natural, BCed and then back to relaxing is exactly 2 years and her hair is Brastrap Length (not that she wears a bra)!!! Her hair regimen is very simple and yet effective. This made me realise that I need to change my regimen.
Who else thinks that their hair regimen is the culprit? Please do share, it would be interesting to know!
