Thank uuuuuuuuuuu! I'll definitely try the once a week DC thing, my strands are so fine and i just realised they can't take to be overmanipulated.
Thanks again ladies!

When hair is loose:
* Every day rinse hair with water > use conditioner (some left in) to dentagle with fingers > seal with castor oil.
* Wash once a week with shampoo & deep condition overnight.
* Every 2 weeks, detangle with wide tooth comb.
* Every 4-6 months, henna hair.
When hair is braided (at least 9 months of the year):
* Spray scalp and hair every 2-4 days with oil mix
* Wash + condition hair every 7-10 days
* Deep condition every 2 weeks

I’ve been wondering who on this forum has the longest relaxed or texlaxed hair with the simplest regimen (not a lot of products of steps). I am always looking for ways to simplify things.

How do you make your spritz?
Do you keep it in the refrigerator?
How long does it last before it starts to mold?

dc/wash/conditon- 1x a week

baggy-5 days a week
My products- hairveda amala cream rinse, moist 24/7 conditon, sitrinillah mask, s-curl.

I'm relaxed.
I shampoo once a week with Giovanni shampoo. It has no sulfates. I buy it at Walgreens.
Then I DC with Aussie 3 minute Conditioner.
Then I put on my Porosity Control for about a minute then rinse.
Next I spray my hair with Aphogee Pro Vitamin Leave In.
Then I roller set.
I use NTM as my moisturizer. This is all I use. Then I pincurl for bed and put on my satin scarf. That's how I got the style in my siggy.

In kinky twists:
Wash once per week
Shea butter scalp like crazy
Hair out of kinky twists:
Wash every other day
Pantene Cassia Conditioner
Shea butter
2-strand twists or a puff
1-2 times a month, I will use Porosity Control and then DC with protein or moisture. Normal styling takes me 45 min. to an hour after washing, and my styles last until I wash again.
That's it for me. Every now and then I jump on a bandwagon, but my consistency is very low - even for the ones that work well.

some of these regimens are making me 
..."simple" is loosely defined.
when my hair is curly, i cowash 2-3x a week, rinse out most of the conditioner, and dry it with a t-shirt. i'll put it up in a wet bun or wear a WNG. every 2 or 3 weeks i will ACV rinse.
when wearing my hair straight, i DC for an hour or so, ACV rinse, add a leave-in and heat protectant, set it on flexirods (or blowdry if i am lazy) and flat iron. i'll moisturize with coconut oil when my hair feels dry, which doesn't happen often. i repeat this process every 2 weeks.

I'm a "KISS" girl! I'm texlaxed (every 4-5mos). My routine consist of poo/conditioner/bdry/flat iron/...weekly. On rare occasion I airdry and bun or rollerset (maybe every 5 or 6 months).
The only product I use for moisture maintenance is Organic, unrefined Coconut oil.

I think I'm a KISS girl. I have lots of product samples, still looking for THE right ones as my transitioning hair is changing needs.
Every two weeks:
Wash, condition, airdry 80%, blow dry and curl
Between those two weeks:
NO HEAT
Pin curls
Daily Moisturize hair and roots
Seal ends, as needed
That's it!

I am relaxed and I play with my hair once a week.
Weeks 1-8
1) Mix my oils (Coconut Oil, Castor Oil Creme (Cheap), Shea Butter, and
WGO or Mango Oil)
2) I let my oils sit for at least an hour, but definitely like to go for a lot
more than that
3) Rinse out VERY well
4) Apply Shea Butter and heat protector (Nexxus) on wet hair
(NOT A BUNCH)
5) Blow dry with my hand dryer over the head on LOW HEAT
6) Apply 2 spirtz of my Nexxus Heat Protector and a drop of Biosilk
7) Flat Iron (ONCE A WEEK DONT BITE ME!- STAND BACK)
Week 9
1) Mix my oils (Coconut Oil, Castor Oil Creme (Cheap), Shea Butter, and
WGO or Mango Oil)
2) Add my protein (Nexxus Emergencee)
3) Sit for an hour or 1.5 Hours tops
4) Wash out with my Nexxus Moisture Shampoo (Moisture- Sorry ladies,
girls gotta do what she do- to me it still strips) 1X (I let the shampoo
stand for 30sec - 1 minute) You can substitute this with a natural shampoo- I just havent
found one that I really like yet- I have the Jason Aubrey thing but I dont like it.
5) Mix my oils AGAIN (Coconut Oil, Castor Oil Creme (Cheap), Shea Butter,
and WGO or Mango Oil)
6) Sit for as long as I want
7) Rinse VERY WELL
8) Light Shea butter with Heat Protector ( Nexxus )
9) Hand Blow Dry on LOW HEAT
10) Comb Dry hair
11) Light Heat protector and pea size Biosilk
12) I SAID STAND BACK---- while I flat iron my hair
Then I just repeat weeks through 9 until I am ready for a relaxer and I do my protein treatment a week before my relaxer.
Drops of oil (WGO) on my finger tips and massage my scalp every other day.
My hair is a full half ear length. Nape area is growing strong since my last eczema problem back there and stylist not making sure the relaxer was fully neutralized in the back.
I had my big cut in May 09 and I have seen lots of growth into August 09. Check out the attachments to see the pics of the growth!

Lately my regime has been really simple:
I wash my hair once a week with Motions CPR Shampoo and CPR Conditioner. Then follow up with Motions Moisture Plus mixed with olive oil. Then I moisture my hair with scurl and put hair grease on my ends(do this once a day) and bun. My hair is loving me for this and I am retaining my length (hopefully I wil be full apl by then end of the year!!!!!!!)
