^For moisture i would suggest you use Chicoro's moisturizing method, it has worked WONDERS for my dry hair!
She says that you use a water based moisturizer (s-curl, curl free gold, your own moisturizing mixture, etc.) next you use an oil based sealant (EVOO, castor oil, coconut oil, etc.) then you use a cream based moisturizer (shea butter, or such the like.)
I tell u, it has worked miracles for my hair especially now that its winter and my hair dries out far more quickly and easily, this method keeps it moisturized. You dont have to use much, i use 1 spray of S Curl, about 2 drops of coconut oil (literally 2 drops!!) and i dip 1 finger into my shea butter and use that, just a dab. I would recommend this method for anyone suffering from dry hair. I've had to do very little trimming since starting this method.
My coworker offered to do my crochet braids tomorrow. I can't wait to get this stuff braided away.
. My scalp was flaky and tight too especially around my hairline, but not since I started co-washing and using coconut oil almost a year ago. It made a huge difference for me. I co-wash every 2 or 3 days and only use shampoo as needed. Or you could try using a sulfate free shampoo if you feel you must use shampoo.
I'm 36 weeks post today!
Thanks. I need to take a progess pick at the end of this month to see if I'm getting anywhere.
