Results of my Regimen

Good day my beautiful. So last night was my first stab at a "Hair Regimen". Like I said I was going to do, I starting out with the emphasis "PRE-POO", which was just saturating my hair with virgin Coconut Oil, while it was dry of course. I must say although this was a greasy, messy process, my hair actually did feel a lot softer and was very shiny. Even while applying it, it was so shiny. Not sure if this is something I could everyday, but I definitely want to figure out a way to incorporate the Coconut Oil into my hair as a moisturizer.

The washing in the shower was cool, only problem I was looked like a "California raisin" when I got out (Ha Ha). My husband thought I drowned or something. Washing/De-tangling was a long process, I had so much more respect for those that work as hair stylists and I'm so grateful they love what they do.

I then applied my Deep Conditioner and used my Heat Thermal Wrap. Ok, the cordless heat wrap is AWESOME. I through the thing in the microwave for like 60 seconds, wrapped it around my head (by the way it makes you look like a football player, it resembles and feels like you are wearing a football helmet) and it heated up. I did have to put some paper towels over my ears, cause it started burning. But man it stayed good and hot for almost an hour. It really worked and it was a lot better than sitting under a dryer.  I still have to invest in a Dryer when I start doing my two-strand twists. Because I tried to let my hair air dry and it took 3 days!! So that won't work - so I will watch Sally's and grab me one on sale.

But I would highly recommend the heat wrap for Deep Conditioners or your Pre-Poo treatment.  I awoke this morning, headed to salon to get my conditioner rinsed out and cut off another 3 inches of my relaxed hair (nervous) and get my straw set, my hair turned out great. My hair was soft, felt really clean and there was very little shedding or breakage. I have to say this is a learning process and a patient challenge, but I'm having a ball.

I talked to my stylist alot about maintaining my hair at home between straw sets (my staple transition style) and she really made me feel confident that I could do this. I can do this!

So my sisters I will talk to you when I get back - Easy Does It, and don't forget you are AMAZING!
