Wash Day - 12 weeks post


Due to my hair being in braids I have not been doing much to it, just moisturising my scalp and spritzing my extensions and washing them even 2 weeks. I do miss my hair, but due to work being super busy, it really helps to be in braids, I have started researching on wigs and weaves to take me through the rest of winter.

Back to wash day, it was very simple

1.     Washed my scalp with diluted Shampoo a mixture of Elasta QP crème and conditioning shampoo and ORS Creamy Aloe Shampoo, I let the shampoo run through the ends, I did this twice

2.    I applied Herbal Essences Bee Strong to the roots and the length of my hair and left it on my hair for 10 mins.

3.    I rinsed out the conditioner and wrapped my braids in a towel and after 2 hours I left it to air dry.

4.    I massaged a blend of oils on my scalp and sprayed Aussie Hair Miracle Insurance Leave in Conditioner to the length of my hair.

 

My hair is feeling clean! Recently, I have been feeling tendered head which is so weird because my braids are over 5 weeks old!

I am now 12 weeks post and would normally be getting the protein out to get ready for my relaxer, however, as I have my braids installed I think I will push it through the month of December and look at relaxing my hair in January.

In the meantime as I prep for the time when my hair is out, I have been search for the perfect conditioner, has anyone tried the Redken All Soft Heavy Cream Super Treatment?

I have been following all you ladies progress, you all keep me so motivated.

Happy Hair Journeys Ladies! :-)

  1. Sounds like an easy breezy wash day, which is awesome. I'm 11 weeks post and I've had to use my Mane n Tail detangler but my hair is still manageable. I'll be relaxing in January as well. Can't wait to see your progress.

    1. I think most people will be having touch ups in December and January, can't wait to see the progress it's like Xmas!! Good to hear your detangling wasn't too bad, am quite terrified with the detangling i will have to do after I remove my braids!

  2. That wash day was simple and nice. I'm also 12 weeks post, my hair is in braids, and I plan to relax in January. I will do a length check then. I haven't tried Redken All Soft Heavy Cream Super Treatment. I use Roux Porosity Control and it works wonders. leaves my hair smooth and moisturized!
