Washing Regimen

Ok I have a "Washing" Regimen I follow that may seen extensive, but it's what I have to do. Everything is done in a biweekly format. Week #1 & #2:

Wash Day w/ poo (Shampoo)

- "Mixed Chicks" Sulfate Free Shampoo

- "Mixed Chicks" DEEP conditioner

-Knot Today Kinky Curl Leave-In Detangler OR Silken Child Leave-In Detangler

-Carols Daughter Hair Balm

-Argan Oil

Wash hair w/ poo, then apply DEEP conditioner w/ plastic cap for 30-45 minutes. Rinse out w/ cold water. Then seperate hair into 4 section using fingers, apply Detangler to damp small sections and detangle w/ wide tooth comb (end to root). Then apply CD Hair Balm to ends to seal in moisture. Apply Argan Oil for shine. Style as desired.

Week #2 & #4:

Co-Wash (Conditioner Wash)

-Proclaim Argan Oil Intense Moisturizing Conditioner

-Knot Today Kinky Curly Leave-In

-Carols Daughter Hair Balm

Wash hair w/ conditioner and let sit for 30 minutes. And follow detangleing process as above. Then style as desired.

When I feel is needed which is Once maybe twice a month I do a treatment which ranges depending on what I feel is needed.

-Silk Elements Reconstructer

-Olive Oil Hot Oil treatment

-Aphogee 2-in-1 Protein treatment

-Proclaim Hair Masque

And that is my hair washing regimen

Curlmart.com

Ok so last week I ordered some products from Curlmart.com and today I recieved my package. SOOOOOO happy with the whole process. The website makes it easy to shop with how they catergorize it. But the best part was the free samples!!! I ordered the Mixed Chicks Sulfate free shampoo, Mixed Chicks DEEP conditioner, Carols Daughter Hair Balm, and a Denman brush. But the extras are awesome!

Braid-Out & Curl

I tried a new style a few weeks ago (via Kairox146 on Youtube)... It's a Braid-Out and Curl at the end. I used the One 'n Only Argan Oil Curl Creme and my Orange Flexi Rods. Check out the results: Braid & Curl

Natural curl pattern & Heat damaged hair

Flexi Rod Craze!!!

While on Youtube I found a few tutorials on using Flexi Rods. And I instantly fell in love!!! So I ran to Sallys Beauty Supply store (Which I pretty much visit 2-3 times a week) and bought some. I started out with (20) Blue and (20) Orange. And I liked it,but everyone elses reaction was WAY more heightened than mine they LOVED it. Now I want to try the other sizes (Larger),but I'll pace myself. And oh yeah I've given up the flat iron until my birthday in April (I'm 3 weeks strong) to see how much more growth I'll get without it!!! Here's some photos:
