Have you Developed a Wash Routine???



Hey Dolls!

I wanted to talk to you about developing a wash routine for your hair. Please do not believe the myth that our hair grows from being dirty. NOT TRUE! Hair grows from proper maintenance and a healthy lifestyle.

When you are natural, the less manipulation you have on your hair is better. It helps avoiding breakage in your hair.


So with that being said- I'm going to share my weekly schedule on how I properly care for my hair

Sunday (R&R Day)- My wash day, this is the day I take the time out to properly cleanse my scalp from any products or residue throughout the week.

Products used: AS I Am CoConut CoWash Cleansing Conditioner. (Sally's Beauty Supply $7.99)  
Smells yummy and it's inexpensive. Remember, always cleanse your hair with SULFATE FREE products.

Beautiful Textures Rapid Repair Deep Conditioner (Sally's $6.89)


Here is a quick video on how I deep condition my hair

I apologize for the quality of the video and drip, drip on my face =D
 
 



After the deep conditioning process is finished, I wash my hair out and use the LOC method in order to style my hair.
This includes putting a leave-in conditioner in my hair. (SheaMoisture Restorative Conditioner- Target $9.99)



The overall washing process is from 2-4 hours, maybe even longer!



Wednesday (CoWash Day) I wash my hair with Herbal Essences Hello Hydration Conditioner. (Can be purchased anywhere) I love this conditioner because it leaves your hair smelling so yummy and it provides intense moisture to your hair.

 **Note: Anytime I wash my hair I always apply the LOC method in order to retain the moisture from the water in my hair**




 
So Dolls that about sum up my weekly ritual for washing and caring for my hair. When I first started transitioning it took ALOT out of me to do to my hair, but as time went on I got the hang of it, and I actually look forward to washing my hair.
.
Very important in order to promote healthy hair growth and show some love to your hair, put yourself on a weekly wash schedule and develop a regimen-something for your hair to get use to. Trust me, your hair does have a mind of its own!


Love and Light!
