i am trying to figure out for the life of me what is the best possible regimen for my hair. i am really trying to retain (if possible) all of my growth for the coming year.
right now i am sitting with some Apoghee 2 step Protein treatment in my hair, about to go under the dryer.
i really want to try bunning to kind of hide my hair from myself and have a style i can just put a scarf on with a hat or when i am around the house. so i tried bunning on airdried hair, but the products i was using was just coating my hair and not very moisturizing, so i decided to try wet bunning.
well with the wet bunning, my hair felt very fragile and i started to see some very tiny breakage. (it was mostly shed hairs, but accompanied by some small broken hairs as well)
when i had relaxed hair before, i relied heavily on my stylist. i went once a week to the salon. i first started getting my hair washed/dc'ed, molded flat with a wrap form lotion, dry under the hooded dryer, blow dried, and flat ironed. i would just wrap my hair for the rest of the week.
when it started to get longer, i started getting wet wraps, then flat ironed. but i just wasn't feeling the heat anymore, (my hair was healthy at the time) so i started getting flexi rods sets. when it grew out some more, i moved on to roller sets. i never combed them out. i would just let them fall and wear a headband when it started to look crazy. doing all of this, took me from NL to APL within a year.
now i am trying to save money by doing all of this on my own, but i feel like i might cause damage, which will lead to a setback.
i really want to make it to APL by April, or at the least the beginning of May.
here are the products that i have/use
Keracare wrap foam lotion, hydrating shampoo, 1st lather, humecto conditioner, edge tamer pomade, leave-in conditioner, oil sheen spray, and essential oil.
i use regular Mizani relaxer, and Mizani neutralizing shampoo, coconut souffle, and hair spray.
Aphogee 2 step, 2 min reconstructor, and keratin green tea spray
Suave coconut conditioner
Elasta QP conditioner
Cholesterol shea butter and mango conditioner
Hawaiian Silky 14n1 and gel activator
Fanastia IC heat protectant serum
i got a bunch of other products, but i use that stuff on my daughter
help a sista out!
