Hey everyone..if you have the Japanese hair straightening/Thermal Reconditioning Treatment for you hair, please share your hair care routine.
Here is my current routine:
Hairtype: 3c and 4a mix.
1. My hair seldom gets greasy so I only wash it once a week.
2. On wash-days, I shampoo and condition my hair. After using a "normal" conditioner, I use a deep conditioning treatment and de-tangle. I then leave it on for an hour with a plastic cap.
3. I then rinse it out with cold water.
4. Next, I apply Olaplex No.3 on my hair, focusing on the ends of my hair. The ends of my hair are bleached so I baby my ends as it is very fragile due to being bleached.
5. I then spray my moisturizing product, then coat it with oil and following up with a cream product, aka LOC method.
6. I then let my hair air dry, and spray my hair with the moisturizing product again. (for some reason, this makes a HUGE difference for my hair compared to not spraying after LOC method.)
I didnt mention any products (besides the Olaplex) since I switch it up a lot and sometimes use DIY.
With this routine, I was able to eliminate my breakage problem and saw less shedding.
What do you guys do to help breakage and to retain length when your hair is chemically treated?
