Wash Day Diary: Getting Rid of the Ugly | October 23rd 2014

Image
On my last wash day , I tried doing a roller set with Jane Carter Wrap and Roll . I have a hate-love relationship with this product. Anyways, after my epic fail at this style, which I now vouch NEVER EVER to do again, my hair was tangled, lost hair, almost did a Big Chop, just hair nightmare, I decided to rewash my hair because nothing I did could get rid of the dry tangled feeling. I decided to cowash with the Eden Bodyworks All Natural Cleansing Cowash , my Boo.   Then, because it was 9:30pm and too late into the night, I did a quick 10 mins deep conditioning session with what was left of the SheaMoisture Purification Masque , #Empty . Rinse and did a cold water rinse. Post Wash - Applied oil mix to scalp for a massage. - Before I went to wash my hair, I put the SheaMoisture Curl and Style Milk, my leave in, in the fridge. I read somewhere that putting your leave in in the fridge will help close your cuticles. When I applied it, I most say, my hair felt smoother and differen

Wash Day Dairy: The Scalp Knows | October 21st 2014

  For the past couple of weeks, I have had terrible allergies. All desires to give my hair a “spa day” was out of the window. Between sneezing and blowing my medication due to seasonal allergies and all my medications not working, washing my hair was not even on my mind. Even though I did not wash my hair in 2 weeks, I still kept it moisturized, and even today, as I was starting my pre-poo process of V05 Conditioner and Extra Virgin Coconut Oil, my hair felt so soft and moisturized. It reminded me of a well marinated chicken. LOL! Regardless, I listened to that quiet voice and decided to wash “her” anyway. Before I washed, I looked at my scalp. My last attempt to ditch wash day. LOL! Oh boy!! The tales my scalp was telling was like, Girl! I can’t believe you did not clean me in 2 weeks. And you know in the fall, I need more love. LOL! So, people even when your hair feels great, your scalp knows. I should have done my scalp exfoliation, but decided to do it next wash day s

Wash Day Diary : Fall Started | October 6th 2014

Image
Since fall is here, I am protective styling more. Now, my version of protective styling is more like, one week protective style, one day free, wash and protect.   I find that I am unable to go full time protective styling without washing my hair thoroughly. Therefore, that is just what I did today. Day 10 of wearing my hair in cornrows, and I had decided to wash my hair in twists, after detangling, using Elasta QP Crème Conditioning Shampoo (sulfate free). After that, I did a light protein treatment with Aubrey Organics GPB Conditioner. I left this for 2 minutes, as instructed on the bottle. Next, I did my usual Black Tea rinse, and applied SheaMoisture Intense Hydration Deep Conditioner on top.    Since it is fall, I now always use heat when doing my deep conditioning session. I sat under the hooded dryer for 30 mins, rinse, and sealed with cold Aloe Vera Juice. Post Wash -           Applied my oil mix to my scalp; my scalp was suprising in great condition. I attribute it t
