1. Sectioned my hair in 4 and applied Organics APH steaming conditioner to dry hair and wore a steaming cap, plastic bag and cotton cap for 3 hours
2. Detangled hair
2. Detangled hair
2. Rinsed off the conditioner
3. Shampooed hair with Elasta QP crème and conditioning Shampoo, once
4. Tea rinsed with rosemary tea
5. Applied TREsemme Naturals Vitamin E Moisturise Rich Conditioner for 5 mins and rinsed
6. T-shirt dried hair for 30 mins
7. Sprayed Aussie Hair Miracle leave in conditioner and detangled
8. Applied Herbal Essence beautiful end leave in and sweet almond oil and roller set my hair
9. I then air dried my hair for 3 hours and blow dried it for 5 mins before removing my rollers.
Verdict: I am currently 2 weeks post, and hoping to really take on the roller setting each work, it makes my hair during the week so manageable.
I found rosemary tea on its own was more moisturising that ginger tea, will be stocking this up till am deeper in my stretch, and go back to using ginger tea on its own for now.
New conditioner, hmmm.....it was rather dull, like so dull it just sat on my hair and did nothing at all. My hair did feel softer and moisturised but more due to the tea and TREsemme, the DC really didn't penetrated into my strands, will mix it up with glycerine going forward, would never buy it again.
My wash day procedure has really been trimmed to nothingness hehehe, my hair did ok last week, am hoping for another good week. I took a few texture shoots the back of my hair has a lot of texture for my liking. I have already tried corrective relaxing it, so I think its here to start, when I look at it, it just screams SSK :/
I lost quite a bit of hair than I usually do, but nothing too alarming.

My wash day went fairly well. I ended by blow drying my hair on cool this time. Haven't done that in a while. I like how big my hair is after blow drying. :)
ReplyDeleteI like the waviness of your hair in the texture shot. Very nice.
I should try blow drying my hair too. Haven't done that in ages.
DeleteThanks for the comment on my texture, it takes a life of its own when deep in my stretch, wish it could detangle itself hehe.
Nice texture, the waves are so pretty! I'm currently airdrying.
ReplyDeleteHair air drying. I was on team roller setting this wash day :).
DeleteHi!!!!! Don't worry about the shedding ... it's perfectly normal to lose more hair this time of the year!
ReplyDeleteHow did you like your roller set when you air dried it? Was it a bit more poofy than using a hair dryer? I have never done that before, but I hear Dominican women will put rollers in in the AM, do their housecleaning and stuff throughout the day, then they will take them out at night. Hmm ...
Oh I need to get used to the shedding, an stop freaking out. The results of the roller set were soft and fluffy, but the curls doesn't hold for long. Hmmm, I think it only worked as I wasn't going anywhere, but I can't see this being the norm! Hhehe
DeleteWow! Why did my message post like 3 times???
Deletelol I noticed that! was going to correct it but my phone was acting up! thanks for the correction hehe.

ReplyDeleteI love your texlaxed texture! If you're not bothered by it---keep it!

When I saw it I was like what! I knew I was texlaxed but didn't realise how much. I have really grow to it over night. Since it didn't get fixed it must be a sign!
DeleteHi Yvonne, Your texlaxed texture looks good. Its similar to mine. I noticed you used conditioner on dry hair. That's exactly how i did it this last wash day. Mostly because I didn't feel like my hair needed shampoo.
ReplyDeleteHi Evalyne! Thanks for your comment, I find DC on dry hair is much easier for me. though I still shampoo after DC. I am falling in love with my texture now, didn't like it too much when I was detangling it!
