Hi everyone!!!
I am a 19year old college soph. at NCAT majoring in chemistry. My hair is currently at the bottom of neck and almost touches my shoulders. My current regime (as of about 6 weeks) is to go in for a wash and set once a week, usually very thursday and then I sometimes wash it my self inbetween visits. I go to Bijans salon in greensboro nc. My sylist Miya uses vitale aloe relaxer and mizani, nairobi, and salon exclusive products. The salon exclusive moisture gold conditioner is to DIE FOR!!! She sometimes uses nexxus botanoil shampoo as well. She always conditions me and every two or three weeks she does a deep 30-45 min. treatment. She uses dudleys setting lotion (the one that foams up).When I wash I use nexxus shampoo or pantene color treated shampoo. I conditioner for 20-30 mintues with lustrasilk shea butter conditioner or the aloe one. I always flat wrap with dark and lovely setting lotion in the purple bottle (its in the newer line). I used to obsess with how much protein or how much moisture I was using but so far this way is working alot better. I am still tweaking my at home products but so far so good. I hope to get to the point where I am using just 2 or 3 lines instead of a whole mix of stuff. As far as vitamins and diet are concerned I take a multi-vitamin, multi-mineral, biotin, flaxseed oil, borage oil, and sometimes additional vit.c and iron. I work out a lot so my diet looks like this
Breakfast- some sort of high fiber cereal like Kashi, fat free milk, with two scrambled egg whites with a light sprinkle of cheese and sometime spinach and peppers
snack - fruit and nuts
Lunch- turkey sandwich with lots of veggies on whole grain bread with some other vegetable on the side; I basically try to get in some meat, fiber, and two serving of vegetables
Snack- Protein shake (I love these)
Dinner- baked chicken, veggies (same idea as lunch); on the days I work it could be chicken and rice soup with side salad for example
Since I have been eating like this my hair has really taken off. I was able to cut off about 4inches of damaged hair and now I really feel like I have a fresh start. My ultimate goal is to grow it as long as it will grow. I plan on having fun with it though, occasionaly dyeing it and things like that. Any suggestions you ladies might have, products, techniques, etc.. please send my way and HAVE A BLESSED DAY!!!
