Ladies with SIMPLE hair routines, please post them here...

Nope Sareca :nono:......dont even be up in hur' draggin' me and Poohbear into the non-simple category.

We are holding it down with the simple 2 and 3 step regimens...must be a natural thang!! :grin:

Alright, alright I'll let ya'll have it. :rolleyes: :wink2:

I don't think it's a natural thing either. I did the same thing when I was relaxed and my hair did fine until the incident with the braids. :look: It was never right after that.
 
1. Shampoo with diluted shampoo once a week.
2. Deep condition with moisturizing conditioner.(20-30 minutes under conditioning cap)
3.Use heavy protein conditioner as every 6 weeks(Aphogee, Nexxus Emergencee, Chocolate Bedhead)
4. Rollerset or airdry with oil mixtures and leave in.
5.Style as usual.
6.Relax every 12-14 weeks.

I have upped my supplement intake(I am taking an amino acid now) biosil/msm mixture in the AM. Nature's way or hair vitamin in the AM or before bed.

My shampoo select is small:Soy shampoo or Dax shampoo--both are cheap and have no SLS. I have TOO many conditioners to count.
 
Yes, I have one also!

  • Pretreatment with mayonnaise
  • shampoo
  • deep condition
  • apply leave-in-- if I am rollersetting, I try to use a liquid leave-in. But if I know I am going to blowfry or wear a bun, I have to pull out the Dominican leave-ins.
  • Apply oil sheen after setting style.
 
I have a very simple routine but I'm just a huge PJ so the products change all the time:

Once a week:

1 - Wash
2 - Condition w/heat
3 - Put it up in a bun w/leave-in
 

My routine is pretty simple:

-Wash/Deep condition (sunday)
-Condition wash (wednesday)
-moisturize (daily)
-Shower comb (sunday/wednesday)
-1/2 WIG OR BUN (DAILY)
 
Loose Hair Regimine:

Wash 1x a week

Deep condition w/protein & moisture 1x a week (w/heat)

Keep hair in plats or large cornrows in between washes

Baggy 3 to 5 times a week

*The first two steps of this regimine can be modified to every 2 weeks, and protein applied on an as needed basis.


C&G Regimine: Cornrows re-done every 1.5 months, deep condition with protein & moisture with every take down and before each rebraid. Baggy 3 to 5 times a week. Cornrows are covered with a wig.

Straight hair Regimine: Wash and deep condition with moisture & protein every 2 weeks. Week 1, wrap hair in satin scarf and cover w/satin bonnet every night. Week 2 of straight hair, do a bantu knot set, braid out, or ponytail w/baggy method.
 
NIGHTLY

- Shampoo & Condition w/ Suave Humetress in shower

-or-
- Airdry overnight w/ NTM with rollerset

MORNING

- Fluff, fingercomb dry hair

Wash hair every 7 days

Typical wash day looks like:
Lather 2x w/ concentrated moisture shampoo (mild clarifying before this if needed)
Condition w/moisturizing condit for 10-15 w/ plastic cap with or without heat
set hair with setting lotion/leave in mixture
dry under hooded dryer
flat iron

pin curl hair every night and wear out in the morning.
 
My Routine:

* Wash/DC weekly (clarify as needed)
* Co-wash a few days a week as needed/Airdry/Style (WnG/Puff)
* Moisturize/Seal/Baggy (nightly)
 
Mine is very simple...

Wash/Condition 1x a week

After rinsing the conditioner out I comb it out and then always brush it back and put it up in a bun and let it dry naturally...I don't blow dry my hair:nono:

The next day I let it down, comb it out and put moisterizer on the ends and put it back up again.

I deep condition my hair with heat 1x a month- I use Ouidad's Deep Treatment.

I have my hair relaxed once a year- roots only:yep:

Aww thanks Sareca :blush: Im just lazy so I think my hair just learned to survive......Im glad you stopped Poohbears reggie...cause your hair is gawgeous now.
 
Well, my regime would certainly not qualify as simple going by what you ladies have here, but it is working well for me. I wash and condition more often; I like mixing things; I still have a few more things to try that have been recommended here; I am having tons of fun with my hair and caring for it.

I have to say that I have really enjoyed reading what others are doing.
 
wash & d/c 1-2x/week (it was 2x in the summer, 1x now that i'm back in school)
detangle under the shower
apply leave-in, seal with oil & comb through
airdry in a loose braid or twist
moisturize & bun daily (except for special occasions)

relax every 12-13 weeks
emergencee every 6 weeks or so
clarify as needed

that's it. :yep:
 
Wash and set once a week.

Wash with PM tea tree poo first, then use DE Moisturizing poo..
condition with either Emergencee (as needed), Kenra MC, or Alter Ego garlic.
Relax every 6-8 weeks. Looking for a new relaxer, the hairdresser yesterday told me to try Mizani next.
 
Just my hair:

Every couple weeks:

DC before washing with whatever conditioner I have
Wash with ORS Olive Oil Creamy Shampoo
Apply liquid leave in
Apply Boundless Tresses
Bun loosely

Daily:
Apply liquid leave in
Apply Boundless Tresses
Bun loosely

My hair in the weave:

Every 2 weeks or as needed:
Squirt diluted mixture of clarifying shampoo on cornrows and gently massage to shampoo
Squirt Infusium 23 onto cornrows directly
Apply Boundless Tresses to scalp

Every other day:
Squirt Infusium 23 onto cornrows directly
Apply Boundless Tresses to scalp
 
I’m trying this regimen out and I like it so far:
Shampoo w/ QP Crème Conditioning Shampoo
Condition with Motions CPR
Moisturize with QP Recovery Oil Moisturizer and Mango Butter

I am totally a PJ, so the products vary but:

Sun
Shampoo/DC/Style (Rollerset/Blowout roots OR Blowdry/Flat Iron)

Wed
Shampoo/Condition/Style

Moisturize ends nightly and wrap.
Wear protective style 5 days/wk
 
  • Wash twice a week with Aveda DR (1x a week- Detoxifier and DC with ADR treatment)
  • Rollerset with Lacio Lacio
  • Moisturize daily with Lacio
  • Aphogee once a month
  • Relax every 10-12 weeks with Phyto II
 
Ya can't get any simpler than this!

- CW twice a week (but detangle only once) with Suave Waterfall Mist (0.99)

- Rinse conditioner, then smooth hair with a tablespoonful to fight frizz, then squeeze squeeze squeeze dry (no towels)

- Smooth in crisco (melted between hands) and safflower oil from crown to ends

- Add gel diluted with aloe vera juice, rake top smooth with comb, and scrunch ends

- Put up into bun or ponytail, tie down front with scarf, and airdry.

At night, loosen or take down and sleep with non-elastic bonnet (stays on better).

Occasionally apply BT or pre-poo overnight with olive oil.

Simple, yes, but I need a deep conditioning/ protein step though.
 
- Shampoo as needed (when I've been in the pool, at the beach, out in the woods or around smokers)
- Co-wash once or twice a week using fingers to detangle in the shower.
- Apply jojoba or olive oil.
- Put in braids (6 or 8 big ones) or bantu knots and let airdry.

Day to day styling - take out braids and put in bun; tie back with a scarf or headband; just leave in bantu knots.
