Her hair is so pretty. I love the undercover beauties /images/graemlins/sekret.gif we have on the board. I see from her location she lives in DC. Hopefully, she can make it out to the next meeting. /images/graemlins/smile.gif
Hi everyone!! Thank you sooo much for the welcome and the compliments. I have been lurking for awhile and I must say I love this board and how everyone supports each other. /images/graemlins/smile.gif
My regimen:
I have been wrapping my hair every night for 16 years.
Its always been long but in 1995 I cut it all off and was sporting the short Halle Berry. It was hell growing out. Finally it grew back by 1997.
I have never worn braids, I never wear any type of styles.
I moved to NY from DC in 1997.
I go to the Dominicans for my touchup and do my own hair in between.
The Dominican salons I go to are Lucy Dominica in Arlington , Va, Giovani's in Adams Morgan-They don't put in the perms right sometimes, and Renees in Adams Morgan. They do my hair the best but are the priciest.
I wash once a week with KMS daily Clarifying shampoo or Joico moisturizing shampoo.
I condition with either Neutrogena daily deep conditioner, Nexxus Humectant or Loreal color vive mask.
Then I put on a plastic cap and leave in for 3-4 hours. Sometimes I sleep with it and rinse out the next day.
After I rinse I leave wet and put in John Frieda frizz ease xtra strength relax serum. (can't live without this)
Then, I blow dry and wrap.
I get a touchup ever 5-6 weeks.
I use either Creme of Nature-Lye or No Lye and Optimum.
I have it trimmed every 4-5 months.
I never ever brush it. I use wide tooth combs to comb and wrap it. I never hot curl it. I wear the same style everyday.
I use Sebastian polishing drops for shine.
I am getting it blunt cut this week.
I might chop of 3-4 inches. I want it all even. The back is so much longer then the front.
Oh that is too cute. I remember taking them as a child. They are so good /images/graemlins/lick.gifI would end up eating them like candy! Thanks again, girl.
Thank you everyone /images/graemlins/grin.gif
Yeah, I have to do a touchup within 5 weeks. I get a lot new growth like a week after my touchup. I've never waited longer then 6 weeks.
I might try it, I'm thinking about not getting one until April.
