Wash Day

My wash day had been a successful one. I haven't had these results in the longest time! Clarifying my hair definitely made a big difference let me tell you, lol.

  • I Prepoo my hair with my JBCO for 20 minutes without heat and then 30 minutes with heat
  • I then rinsed out the oil and proceeded to clarifying my hair. I had used ORS Aloe Shampoo, I had a packet so why not. (It felt great) I was massaging the shampoo in my scalp really good and smoothing the length of my hair with the shampoo. I was washing my hair with the shampoo for at least 2 minutes it felt like lol, seriously thou. That build needed to go!
  • I then rinsed the shampoo out and followed up with my Herbal Essence Honey I'm Strong. That's when it hit me! I was able to feel my hair soften up so quickly and detangling went pretty good. Definitely better then before. But once my hair had soften up I was just amazed. Just a few days ago I was complaining about how my beloved HE weren't working anymore. But lets see if my HE conditioners would work again when I cowash (which is what I use them for)
  • I then Tshirt dried my hair and applied my deep conditioner which was Tresseme Naturals Conditioner mixed with EVOO (I haven't used EVOO in awhile) I then deep condition for 15 minutes without heat and then 30 minutes again with heat.
  • When I had rinsed the DC out I had SOFT, MANAGEABLE AND MOISTURIZED Hair! I was so happy!
  • Apply my leaves which never worked for me either which was the Aussie Spilt End leave in & Elasta QP H2 Leave In

My end results were pretty good I woke up with damp hair but it felt moisturized until it dried up. It wasn't that dry but it felt like it needed some more moisture. I didn't do anything special but two twist in my hair since it was already 3 am, I was exhausted. Hopefully I can get those results again thou *crosses fingers

Wash Day (7/7)

It feels good to have a clean scalp especially since I haven't washed my hair in almost two weeks! Yeah I know slacker/gross! My  hair needed a good wash and some moisture back into it. Also I just came from the beach and even though I wasn't in the water the elements could of been harsh on my hair ex.sun.  I started off with clarifying my hair since I haven't washed my hair in awhile. Needed to get rid of product build up and plus its the beginning of the month. I used my suave clarifying shampoo, I would say I do prefer the ORS aloe shampoo but I have yet to buy a full size.  I proceeded to conditioning my hair because it was very much needed. I used my L'oreal Power Moisture conditioner and saturated my hair with the product so I can detangle my hair with my fingers instead of a comb. So easy to detangle my hair with this conditioner I love it.  Followed up with my deep conditioner which is the Bee Mine D/C. I didn't wear my heating cap or leave in on for hours.

Hair Length Check In

I can not believe how far my hair has come. My hair has been in a protective for half the year, which was a sew-in. I did not have a sew in for the summer I gave my hair a break. I am currently debating if I should get another sew in for the colder months that is coming but I am not sure. My hair feels fuller & thicker. I was even asked if I had a weave in lol. Here is my current length. Am I Mid-Back length ? This picture was taken in Oct/13  Here is my current length as of Oct/14

So I Made Waist Length

I made my long term goal! I'm finally waist length. I have been on a hair journey for a very long time and through so many trial and errors I found what helped me. My growth has definitely come from protective styling. I'm either doing a sew in and if not that my hair was always in a bun. Also having a simple hair routine is key! Not only that but keeping up with my ends. I plan to get my ends lightly trimmed but the only person I trust is so far from me but very soon I will get one. I might try to do a new hair goal of hip length but honestly not sure having long hair can kind of be annoying, but I'm not complaining I love my current length.
