Ladies bear with me, this is somewhat lengthy. I recently took out my braids and let it "breathe" for a few days. During this time, I shampooed with Nexxus Therappe, followed by a protein treatment with Emergencee(Nexxus), the deep conditioned with Humectress (Nexxus), and concluded with Ensure (Nexxus) as a final rinse. Seeing how I havent had a relaxer since the beginning of this year (Jan/Feb), I had to blow-dry my hair (because of estimated thickness) on a cool setting using small amounts of Infusium 23, Hot Six Oil, and Wild Growth Oil (on my new growth). I can't believe how my hair came out. It was alot healthier than I expected it to be. It was soft to the touch and had sheen. My hair was also very thick and I had up to four and a half inches of new growth in some areas!
I have been debating on whether or not I should relax the new growth as a means of controling it. Any suggestions? I would really like to stray away from relaxer applications while growing out my hair and have been thinking about doing twist/braid-outs when I take a break from braids in the coming months. Has anyone done twist/braid-outs on natural hair? If so, what were your results? Thanx in advance.
