I will be doing the crown and glory method off and on for 1 year. During my off time I will co-wash my hair 3 nights a week, deep condition every 2 weeks and do emergence treatments once a month. I will only use natural style aides like mango/shea/aloe/avocado butters, essential oils. I will use heat every once a blue moon and oils my ends always, trim my ends 3 times for the year, I am not sure whether or not I will be getting relaxers during this time.

Introduction
***************
I follow a modified version of the crown and glory technique. I wear protective styles like twists and cornrows for 2 months at a time.

I cover the length of twists/braids with baggie or plastic cap containing oils to seal moisture in, hence reducing breakage.

To prolong my styles I sometimes wash and condition my hair using the stocking cap method.

click on this link for photographic demonstration.
http://public.fotki.com/den1/1/stocking_cap_method/.

I remove protective styles with black and beautiful braid repair serum and leaving it on for 30 minutes to ease removal and breakage.

I texturize with Affirm mild lye every 3 1/2-4 months and trim at six-month intervals. I also take supplements to aid hair growth. see Hair Weapons album.

*******************************
Clarify and Deep condition once a week

The Lemonaid regime by Lorraine Massey consists of squeezing a whole lemon juice into a generous amount of conditioner and adding it to scalp and wet hair.
