Wash Day

1. I started off with using my Shea Moisture Sulfate Shampoo. I have been moisturizing and sealing my hair all week and just needed to wash it all off.

2. I then followed up with Herbal Essence Totally Twisted Conditioner on the lengths of my hair so that it can help me detangled my hair. This conditioner smells sooo good. It lingers for awhile but does go away rather quickly.

3. Once I rinsed out the conditioner I had squeezed out any excess water. I decided to do that so my deep conditioner can absorb better in my hair, I was using the Its's a 10. As I started to apply the d/c I started at my roots and this stuff just melted away my tangled roots. I was surprised I really was not expecting much from this even though it is a higher end deep conditioner. I was able to run my fingers through my roots, that how detangled my roots got from the product. I had put on my heating cap and left it on for 30 minutes only. Once I rinsed out the d/c my hair felt really soft, some what moisturized and no tangles in sight. As for the scent it smells amazing! I can not get enough of it

4. I wrap my hair in my turbie twist towel and let it sit for about 10 minutes. My Hair was not soaking wet but not as dry so I was able to apply my leave ins and know for sure that my hair will be able to absorb whatever I would give it. I used my Camille Rose Naturals Leave In (Also used this as a styler) along with my It's a 10 Leave In Conditioner. My hair feels great and smells amazing.

5. I styled my hair in 6 twist and wrapped it up for tomorrow day..

Next week wash day I need to incorporate protein. My hair was feeling a bit mush but not that mushy if you know what I mean. Also it has been a while since I used protein so next week will be a protein week.

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.
