    Post from our Facebook page, DiscoveringNatural Last night,  I cowashed my natural hair which is in a protective style cornrows using EdenBodyworks cleansing cowash .   How to do it: STEP 1: Saturate hair with water STEP 2: Apply cowash STEP 3: Rinse thoroughly STEP 4 : Dry. I tied a T-Shirt on my hair, and then wrapped my hair with my microfiber Turbie Twist towel.   After hair has dried,  moisturize as usual. I used applied a liquid Leave-In by Belnouvo and massaged scalp with my DIY oil , and sealed with Kinky Tresses butter Covered hair with a wig cap because it is very snug. You can use a scarf.

My hair had been acting like a diva lately, so I gave her  a trim and then clarified her by doing a Rhassoul Clay cleanse .
