Sooooo moving right along I wanted to discuss my hair regimen. I've noticed that a lot of ladies now are transitioning and starting a hair journey and I'm so proud of ya'll *bbm dancing smiley*. A hair journey can be both a fun experience and also a learning experience but if you don't have the right knowledge on how to take care of your hair it can be a disaster. In order to take care of your hair you need a hair regiman. A hair regimen is a daily, weekly, and monthly routine that you do to your hair in order to retain your hair's length and health. My hair regimen goes something like this:
Seal and moisturize hair daily
Co-wash hair 1x a week
Shampoo hair 1x a week
Deep condition hair 1x per week
Scalp treatment every other day
Green house effect everyother day I don't scalp treat my hair
Protein treatment 1x per month
Dust/trim ends every 1 to 2 months (my ends are so hard thats why I do that so often)
Perm every 16 weeks
Products I use in my hair
Moisturizer: Shea Butter
Sealant and scalp treatment: Jamaican Black Castor Oil mixed with Hollywood castor oil
Conditioner: Herbal Essence Hydralicious Conditioner and/or All Ways Natural Conditioner
Leave-in conditioner: Creame of Nature rosemary and lemongrass leave-in
Shampoo: All Ways Natural Moisturizing Shampoo
Deep Conditioner: Avacado, honey and coconut oil mix
Protein treatment: Egg and mayo mix
Perm: still havent looked into one yet but it will be a Lye relaxer
How I protect my Hair
I sleep with a silk wrap on to keep in the moisture
I TRY my best to finger comb my hair and use a wide tooth comb only on wash days
I wear usually buns, ponytails or twistouts
I braid, twist or bantu knot my hair every night
I give myself scalp messages if I EVER try and play around with my ends lol
I take a multivitamin daily
I TRY and excercise at least once a week
Drink lots of water and green tea
I only air dry my hair with the scarf method
I flat iron if I need a length check which is once a month
And VOILA! There you have it! My Hair Journey Regiman<3
