Strict Regimen Challenge

Since I had some hair progress over the last six months with UBH products, I decide to dibble and dabble and lead myself astray to try to find cheaper products. As a result and in a one-two week period I have completely dried my hair, it's gotten knotty at the ends where I have over-doubleprocessed colored relaxed ends. My hair feels like stray, it breaks when I touch it. I have a serious consistency problem once I see progress. It either starts to get in in bad shape and I "experiment", I get mad, and cut my hair to start over. Consequentially., I haven't reached my goals over the past two years and have had about 2-3 serious hair cuts.


So instead of crying and cutting, I'm going back home to my UBH products and regimen. The only product I will use out of Howse line is my oil mixture or Hot six oil for sheen and some motions for mositurizer.

The Strict Regimen:
1) Use my regimen faithfully ( strick with what works)
2) No buying new products unless its to refill
3) Give, sell, or throw away products I don't like. ( if they are not there I won't experiment to see if "this time" they'll work).

I'm going to save money and reduce hair stress. Anyone wants to join?

I check in monthly with my hair progress. the 6th of each month. I want to do this until my hair touches my shoulders. I have a problem with consistency.

here my strict regimen.

1)Wash hair every 3 days with a mositurizing shampoo. Clarify once or evey two weeks.
2)deep condition with UBh cond. once a week.
3)spray hair with dew, rollerset, spray oil mixture, hot 6 oil or olive oil seen ( whatever is available until i run out of each).
4)Wrap hair or pin curl set.
5)Daily ( mositurize ends and edges with motions and spray hair with DEW).

relax every 8-10 weeks.

Expectations:
1) Curb my PJism and Impulsive hair buying. Save Money and have more space in my "hair" closet.
2) Gain long term progress and consistent growth
3) In one year: shoulder length hair
 
This is a deep challenge. Let me cogitate on this for a while and I will check back in if I decide to go for it. But I'm lovin your commitment and the detailed regimen. HHG
 
I don't know if I was clear. But everyone can make their own strict regimen. They don't have to use mine. the challenge is to use a strict regimen for oneself until your goal is reached.
 
This sounds like a great challenge. I've been doing this for the past month. I haven't bought anything new so I could get a routine down. I've been saving lots of money this way. It's so easy to hop on a bandwagon when folks are raving about stuff and I've found that maybe 95% of the things raved about don't do a thing for me that makes me want to buy it again.
 
My strict regimen for the next month ending May 26th.

1) Wash hair every 5-7 days with AG Hair or Elucence
2) Condition with ORS Hair Mayo (15 minutes)
3) Dominican Rinse
4) Arosci Leave-In
5) Roller set, dry then wrap
6) L-Cysteine vitamins
7) Increase Water intake
8) No hair extensions, wearing hair down or ponytails.

;) Girl, I am with you all the way...I always used keracare it works great for me. I then wanted to try NTM. My niece got great results with it...so here I go straying. While it is a good product. Kera care works best for me. I am sticking to what I know and love.

I will pretreat with evoo, carrot oil, jojaba, shea butter, water mix.

I will wash once a week with Keracare shampoo then follow up with Kera care condtioner.

I will alternate between Salerm Wheat germ mask, and Emergencee ( When it is needed) so far it has been needed biweekly. Go under dryer for 30min

I use Salerm 21 for leave in. Plus surge scalp.
