Valentine's Day

Like every woman, I want to look amazing for my boyfriend tomorrow. So I went to the Dominican style hair salon next to my job. However, by the time I got there... it was too late for me to get deep conditioned after I washed. I could only get a leave in. So I left. Yes, I know I'm hair crazy. Whatever, I've come to terms with it so you should too. Especially if you will be reading this blog. Back to the point. So, i decided to tough it out on my own. The only reason I was really going to the hair salon was because I wanted my roots blown out. I'm about seven weeks post and the two different textures are starting to look a little bit crazy. Since I don't have anyone to do it for me. I am going to try to flatiron/blow dry my roots after I roller set. This is an experiment....

I'll post pics and tell you how it went after if I'm not exhausted.

Okay, I wound waking up early and going to the Dominican hair salon around the way. After doing my cousin's hair I was too tired. I used the Victoria's Secret So Sexy set, mostly for the scent. Trust me guys, this conditioner will attract your significant other to your hair. I don't use this conditioner regularly. Only when I want my hair to smell like it. So, I used the shampoo and conditioner. Then I used KeraCare silken seal to roller set. I then pin curled my hair after I had my roots blow out. The finished product was shiny and bouncy.

disclaimer: I'm not normally that non-photogenic.

MY HAIR REGIMEN

Many people on the hair communities pm (personal message) me and ask me about my regimen. I don't have a fotki, but I would really love to start documenting my hair journey so I am starting this blog to do just that. I'd also like to share some of my finds with you guys.
Well, here goes...I wash and deep condition my hair twice a week or every 3 to 4 days. I never wash and not deep condition.
I very rarely use protein conditioners ... only as needed or the wash right before my relaxer.
After I condition, I use a moisturizer/leave in conditioner or my homemade spray to moisturize my hair.
Then I'll rollerset or simply air dry.... depending on how lazy I am.
Between washes, I keep my hair well oiled. I don't always moisturize with a water based moisturizer, but I always use natural oils on my hair. Some of my favorite oils are coconut oil, avocado oil, olive oil and castor oil.
I typically wear my hair in a bun to protect my ends, especially now in the winter time.
I usually stretch my relaxers for about 12 weeks, this time I am going to about 16 weeks because I'm trying to hold out until my birthday.
I trim my hair every 6 months.
