Hair Diary #5

Okay you guys so this post is like a week late BUT it’s always better late than never lol. Okay so last week Dec. 13^th was my wash day. I’ve decided on going back to weekly washes and will only do every 2 week washes if I’m like very very busy. I just realized hey I can’t do that because my black tea rinses need to be weekly for a while to help with the shedding. So yea I ended up going back to my weekly wash days.

So last week I made another homemade DC just trying new things I guess you could say. I mixed in a bowl some yogurt, honey, VO5 strawberry & cream moisture milk conditioner, small amount of smoothing mangosteen yogurt vitamin conditioner (finishing it up), olive oil cholesterol, amla powder, avocado oil, almond oil and castor oil and applied it on dry hair. Once the DC was completely saturated on my hair I held my head over the tub and poured the black tea rinse on my hair concentrating mostly on my scalp then to the rest of my hair.

This is what it looked like :  

After this process I put the shower cap over my head and a regular grocery bag. I watched a movie, got on YouTube, facebook etc and fell asleep lol. I no intentions on falling asleep this time but it happened oh well EXTRA moisture for me ha-ha. So in the morning I washed my hair out. It left my hair feeling really silky and strong at the same time. While it was still pretty much dripping wet I applied my leave in conditioner to my hair KCKT (Kinky Curly Knot Today) which I need to buy more because I’m very low. Then added a small amount of my favorite butter which is Macadamia nut butter to my hair and put it in twists. After I finished the twists I got some castor oil out applied it to my scalp and every twist.

Later on that day when I took my twist-out  out it was so pretty and very moisturized and my curls were seriously popping like so crazy. I have a few things in mind to do with the castor oil. In the upcoming months I’ll be trying a few things with it. Today is my wash day again and my curls are still intact and haven’t started to frizz yet I’m so loving it. If you haven’t already tried out some castor oil on your hair and let me know how it does for your hair. I used Home Health but any will work if its natural/organic ex: Jamaican Black Castor Oil. Until next time..!! J
