The Start...

As of the beginning of this month I have really started to take care and be interested in the overall health and care of my hair. currently my hair is relaxed type 4 something (LOL) and at shoulder length. My last relaxer was July 2nd which I do myself, so that makes me about 8 weeks and 2 days post relaxer.
My ultimate goal in this journey is to have Healthy Hair. 
short term goals include, reaching APL at the end of 2012.
*disclaimer* if I grow past that length I will not complain*
Weekly Hair Reggie includes...



1. pre-conditioning with an oil or conditioner
2. shampoo
3. deep condition
4. leave-in's
5. roller-set
nightly moisturize and seal with an oil & wrap hair or pin curl under a satin scarf





WashDay!
I had a concoction of yes to carrots conditioner, avocado and olive oil + MSM and shower capped for 15 minutes, then I washed today using my CON (blue bottle), then I put in CON Nourishing treatment for about 10 minutes capped, then rinsed and used ORS replenishing pack for 20 minutes with heat then rinsed. I must say I <3'd the slip I got from this combo. Any way I did my roller-set (I'm getting better with this) went under the dryer for about 45 minutes and bounce galore...I'm going to moisturize with my carrot oil and seal with coconut oil, then wrap and get some beauty rest, 2 12 hour shifts await me...toodles <3
