it it time to change things up?

i have been using the same regime for months now. Ive been using it since i was transitioning and now that i am natural. I have been natural for almost a month now and my regime does not seem to be working anymore. I condish everyday, moisturize with infusium 2, seal with doo gro, use beemine sulfur, i use infusium 23, and hello hydration condish. I henna twice a month. I stopped using mousse and curl free curl.

It sounds like you may be over doing it. I know that when I used so many products at the same time, my hair would get product buildup. Maybe if you clarify and simplify your regimen then you will see better results.

Have you clarified your hair? Especially since you condish every day, mositurize and seal, that could lead into build-up which will cause your hair regi. to stop working.

I think you need to simplify. Your regimen look so complicated to me! All I do is cowash (HEHH, Yes to Carrots, Aussie Moist, TJ nourish are my favs) and moisturize with kbb hairmilk. If I feel like it I'll finger coil the front of my hair with a little HE tousle me softly finishing cream for hold. I deep condition every 2 week to a month with Yes to carrots or KBB herbal hair mask. If i have build up I'll shampoo with anything sulfate free....maybe once a month.

When I BC'd my hair was neck length at the longest layers. Less than a year later I'm back at APL. Also, I almost never use heat on my hair. I've done it once since I BC'd.

Keep it simple!

I agree with both of the ladies. I would clarify first. It the products still dont work i would look into better products that work for you.

so here is my new regime: co wash 3 times a week. i mixed my shea butter with doo gro. i will apply this daily. use beemine sulfer every other day, and clarify twice a month.
