[sareca]

Nope Sareca ......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!!

Alright, alright I'll let ya'll have it. :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. It was never right after that.

 

[ryanshope]

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.

 

[Angelicus]

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.

 

[Browndilocks]

I have a very simple routine but I'm just a huge PJ so the products change all the time:

Once a week:

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

[Diamond*Doll]

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

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

 

[brownsugarflyygirl]

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

ETA: I don't think it's a natural thing. When my hair was natural I had poobear's reggie and my hair never grew past SL. I think ya'll just blessed.

Aww thanks Sareca Im just lazy so I think my hair just learned to survive......Im glad you stopped Poohbears reggie...cause your hair is gawgeous now.

 

[HoneyDew]

I wouldn't consider that simple but I guess simple means different things to different people

I think Sarecas is pretty simple. Texturizing only once a year Only combing once every 2 weeks

 

[newflowers]

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.

 

[silverlotus]

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.

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.

 

[DarkVictory]

- 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.
