your hair looks beautiful and healthy. what is your new regimen to help you deal with the texture?
Thank you, heres my new regimen:
I tex-relax every 12 weeks with motions salons herbal (lye)
I colour every 12 weeks with react seinna semi permanent colour
I trim once every 12 weeks
I wash my hair once every 2 weeks. I either use moisture or protein.
Moisture:
1. I detangle with Kemi Oil and Pre Poo with Suave conditioner for about 10 minutes.
2. I wash with Keracare 1st lather poo, then their hydrating poo.
3. I condition with keracare humecto for 20 minutes under the steamer.
4. I detangle with Salerm 21 and then rollerset with NTM silk touch leave in.
5. I flat iron the roots/1st inch or so
6. I make 2 large pincurls at the back of my head and put my hair net and silk scarf on for bed.
Protein:
I use protein at week 4 and week 10. Everything else is the same except step 2 and 3 where i use the Motions CPR poo and con.
During the week every few days or so I use Keracare oil sheen or essential oils lightly in sections.
I finger comb and dont use a comb for the next 2 weeks until wash day. I see hardly any breakage this way.
The most important things have been finding products that detangle well and help straighten frizzy hair. These are the Keracare poo and con, salerm 21 and NTM. During the 2 weeks my hair isn't hard to manage, its only when its wet and now i am trying to be more patient.
What kind of bands did you use to put the ponytails in? I will be trying this as I have no luck w/ traditional rollersets.
