Hello beautiful people, how are we all doing and how is the hair
journey, guess we have had some ups and downs shey? Just keep at the journey,
every-every will normalize. Like I have been feeling my hair isn’t growing past
APL but people keep telling me how long and healthy the hair is, so if I am not
seeing progress people are which is a good thing and one important thing;
consistency, keep doing the good work on the hair and results will come (show).
Back to my wash day experience: This wash day was a lengthy
one and I enjoyed it and it went thus:
Prepoo: I
massaged my scalp with warm coconut oil for like 2minutes, and also applied the
oil to the body and ends of the hair, wrapped with cling film and stayed under
my heat cap for 15minutes.
Deep
condition: As you all know that I like mixing, I mixed aloe Vera with
avocado, honey and mayonnaise, applied this to my hear and wrapped with cling
film again and went under my heat cap for another 30-45 minutes, didn’t wash
off immediately because I was cooking so I had the stuff in my hair for like 2hours
Shampoo: I
washed with Tresemme moisture rich shampoo, lathered once.
Tea rinse: I
steeped 2bags of black tea and 2bags of green tea for my tea rinse, the bags
were that much because I want shedding to be a thing of the past in this my
hair journey so I will do all I can do.
Conditioner: I
conditioned with Tresemme moisture rich luxurious conditioner and suave
voluminizing conditioner.
Towel dried for like 70% and air dried the other part
Leave-ins: I used my old faithful profectiv growth renew root
recovery deep conditioner on my scalp, then applied my mixed moisturizing
conditioner too the length of my hair. And this will take me to my mixing
experimented.
I mixed 4 different moisturizing conditioners all together,
this is because of the following:
1. I didn’t
want to be applying all four different conditioners to my hair at different times
that was more work and more time too.
2. I want to
really get moisture into my hair and moisturizing right because I notice that
the day after my wash day which is when I apply my mixed butter hair cream and
oil to my hair, it feels very coarse on the hand, not smooth and feels STRONG
too.
So here are the 4 products I mixed in my spray bottle:
Garnier
Fructis Style Sleek & Shine intensely smooth leave-in conditioning cream: This
conditioning treatment contains argan oil from morocco and Apricot oil for
intense nourishment. It helps control dry, frizzy hair. It is very moisturizing
and conditioning, anytime I use it, it makes my hair very soft and easy to
manage and the moisture tends to stay a little longer. Another plus is its
recycle-able bottle, u can actually put water in it and rinse out the last of
the conditioner out of the bottle (Sorry my ijebu mind at work, apologies to
all Ijebu people o). When the bottle is empty I will transfer some portion of
my elasta QP into it.
Cantu
argan oil Leave-in Conditioning Cream: Shea butter infused deep
penetrating leave-in conditioning treatment helps stop and mend breakage,
hydrates, repairs spilt ends and adds manageability and shine to the hair. This
product provides intense moisture, leaves my hair soft and help mends split
ends. It is formulated for damaged, dry, and coarse hair. Protects from heat
damage. I can go on and on relieving the wonders of Cantu because I love and my
hair loves the product.
Next is Elasta QP olive oil and mango butter anti-breakage leave-in
Conditioner: This stuff smells great. Really great. If you have hair that
can take a heavy product this product is for you, Moisturizes
well and makes hair more manageable. A little goes a long way though, so don't overdo
it. Moisturizing butter of mango and olive oil creates intensely rich thermal
protecting treatment, daily usage gives softer and fuller hair, and also
strengthens and protects hair against breakage, split-ends and dryness.
And the
last is Shea Moisture Raw Shea Butter
Deep treatment Masque: this rich treatment deeply moisturizes and repairs
hair while providing a protective barrier for the hair from heat and styling
aids. It has some good ingredients in it and I wanted it to work for me by all
means because I have used it to deep condition though the result was good but
with all the hype about this product it should do more so I have decided to use
it as a leave-in which I think is fine by me.
To how I
came about my mixture, I mixed a little portion of each conditioner in my spray
bottle with Shea moisture being the least plenty, added water and coconut oil,
then I shake-it, shake-it, shake-it nonstop till I felt the mixture was okay, I
used it on my hair after washing, it was less work in less time as I had all my
leave-ins applied to my hair.
I use it
in the morning while styling my hair for the day, it’s just makes the whole
work less hassle for me.
Anyone
else has experimented recently, please share and feel free to make your
comments.
Thanks
