Winter Hair Regimen

So this weekend I'm going to switch up my wash day regimen for the Winter to try and combat dryness and retain some moisture. Here is what I plan on doing:

  1. Wash hair with Carol Daughters Black Vanilla Shampoo (this is sulfate free, although it does sud like crazy)..I love it. While shampoo is in my hair I start my "finger" detangling.
  2. Rinse out Shampoo, Apply Tresseme Naturals Moisturizing Conditioner - leave in for about 10 minutes while I continue to detangle using fingers and wide tooth comb. Wash out
  3. Deep Condition - So I'm going to amp up my deep conditioner. I use the Carol Daughters Black Vanilla Smoothie, and now I'm going to add to it some castor oil and coconut oil before applying to my slightly damp hair, making sure I get it good into the roots and ends of my hair. After working it in thoroughly I will apply my Hair Therapy Heat Wrap (love this thing!) for about 45 min. I will leave the DC in my hair overnight (bag it and put on bonnet). I like leaving in my DC overnight, my hair responds better to this. I did this even when I was transitioning.
 NEXT DAY
  1. Wash Out DC - soak out excess water with my cotton t-shirt
  2. Spray hair with my Aloe Vera Juice/Rosewater-Glycerine/Bottle Water Mix, massage into hair
  3. Apply my Paul Mitchell "The Conditioner" leave-in
  4. Apply one of my oil concoctions (not sure which one) to seal in all that good moisture
  5. Finger Coil my hair using my Eco Styler Gel (Clear) and let my hair air dry
I will leave the coils in for a few days and then unravel them probably on day 3. Each morning and night spritz hair with Aloe Vera Juice mix for moisture.
