tuffCOOKiE[/USER];19361275]I am running low in a lot of products so this will def change
Hair Type/Condition: Natural
Current Length: Arm pit
Current Products:
- Moisturizing Deep Conditioner - Cheapies: TJ's, LOREAL Power moisture
- Protein Deep Conditioners - Dr Miracles packet, AO GPB
- Cleansers - Mudwash but am looking for a non/low sulfate alternative
- Rinse Out Conditioner - LOREAL Total Repair 5
- Leave-in - On the lookout!
- Moisturizer - Water, Qhemet Alma cream
Am on the hunt for a slippery leave-in + a new cleanser
Current Techniques:
- Finger detangle only (no more combs + Denman)
- Mild cleasers
- Oil "rinse". What I really do is put oil in my and while in shower and run my hand thru the hair
- Airdry - No heat unless putting in braids/weave
What in your regimen are trying to nail:
- the day to day moisture + seal
- Slip - I used to underestimate this but as a natural it def cuts down on breakage
- Figuring out my oil game. Sometimes I think my hair hates oils but then she flips it on me!
- Find a softening butter for my root area
What's your starting strategy:
- Master the airdry game so my hair feels moisturized after wash and not crunchy (This is a technique/product hybrid)
- Oil Rinse + Add Aloe Vera Juice (AVJ) to the mix to close cuticles
- Continue with finger detangling
Anything else you want to share:
My hair is always on the dry side but lately, I've been fighting dryness at the root and scalp. This makes for a really hard detangle. The first 3 inches of my strands are just "tough" and angry so when I pass a comb thru my hair would break at the 3 inch mark.
uofmpanther - this is a great regimen. Might have to steal (but mine is similar)
Ogoma - what are the slippery condishs that you're using? Are you natch?
