Washday Sunday!!



Today is my designated wash day. I detangle my hair the night before to prep it for washing. I shampoo my hair 3 times and condition once before deep conditioning with a foil conditioning cap (Use steamer or heated cap if available). I leave the deep conditioner with EVOO on my hair for as long as possible. I rinse with warm water. I use 2 leave in treatments before blow drying and moisturizing. These are the products and tools I use:

1) Wide Tooth comb
2) Shampoo- Creme of Nature Argan Oil Shampoo (Sulphate free)
3) Conditioner- Creme of Nature Argan Oil Conditioner
4) Organics Hair Mayonaise Hair Treatment
5) Extra Virgin Olive Oil
6) Conditioning Cap
7) Elasta QP H-Two Leave in Conditioner
8) Extra Strength Hair Placenta
9) Blow Dryer
10) Elasta QP Hair Moisturizer
11) Wild Grow Light Hair Oil

Relaxer Day!!- My way!





Today was my relaxer day. I based my scalp with JBCO to prevent burns and overprocessing and self-relaxed with my usual Mizani Butter Blends Relaxer for Sensitive Scalp. I used a sprush (pictured above) to apply the relaxer to my new growth and then dusted my ends with relaxer 2 minutes before neutralizing with Mizani Butter Blends Sensitive Scalp Balance Hair Bath.

I always do a protein treatment on relaxer days to put back the protein taken away by relaxing. Today I used the Organics Hair Mayonaise mixed with extra virgin olive oil. I applied it generously all over the hair and covered it with a foil cap for 3 hours before rinsing it out.

I applied my Elasta QP H-two leave and conditioner and Extra strength hair placenta to damp hair which I left for 5 minutes to penetrate. I then blow dried my hair and applied castor oil hair treatment to my scalp and Elasta QP hair lotion and coconut oil to my hair to moisturize and seal.

I'm wearing a bun as a protective style.

Do you self relax?
