Okay, I have come across a revelation that may not be so new to some, but it was an epiphany to me.
Here was my problem: MONSTER BREAKAGE!!! It is starting to be more prevalent, but I'm in my 4th week of relaxer yet having a good amount of new growth that is a def. diff. texture than my relaxed hair so how do I soften the new growth?
Well, I had been using a mix of jojoba/castor/rosemary oil on my scalp , but that's just been good for moisturizing my scalp and promoting growth. I've been using a variation of Sweetcocoa's pomade, but that's been great for the length of my hair, but what to give to my dry new growth....CARROT OIL!!!
Yes, so I have three different "finishing" products on my hair and guess what minimal breakage on comb-out, shiny hair, and a healthy growing scalp!!! I am so happy!!! /images/graemlins/grin.gif I had to share this "new" idea with my hairfriends. I hope someone else can benefit from this esp. my 4A/B girls who may have a problem with the two textures when it gets close to touch-up time.
