Hair’s doing fine!!!

2 inches til’ waistlength!!! AHHHH

So i’m deep conditioning my hair tomorrow probably gonna use silk elements megasilk olive followed by an aussie moist quick rinse (as suggested by an LHCF member).

I only have two tangles..so that’s alright

Time to make a new butter..

My butters:
Avocado*
Shea**
Mango
Hempseed
Sweet Almond

The* says it’s gettin’ kinda low..
I need some more butters..I’ll probably use mostly Mango Butter but i don’t want it to   be hard..
How about..
1ounce Coconut Oil
1/2ounce Avocado Butter
1/2ounce Hempseed Butter
1/2ounce Mango Butter
1/2ounce Sweet almond butter
1ounce castor oil
Just need some more castor..*cough* I’m lazy to look for it..I’ve been in CVS multiple times lol.

Midweek Deep condition checkup!

My hair has been thicker than usual and very little breakage ever since starting using the GVP Concentrated leavein. I’m restoring moisture into my hair by deep conditioning with Silk Elements Megasilk conditioner for 2 hours. I mixed it with Avocado Butter, Camellia Seed OIl, and Honey.

Then i’m going to rinse it out moisturize with GVP Concentrated and Redken Butter Treatment and seal with Avocado Oil.

We’ll see how i like this deep conditioner..

Great deep condition!

I’m 10 weeks post but today my hair hardly felt it! Today I washed with GVP Extra-gentle shampoo then deep conditioned with GVP Conditoning Balm for like 2/3 hours..rinsed it out and my hair was easy to detangle..I applied my GVP Concentrated and I had to use Redken Butter Treat over it but the concentrated makes it much thicker as it dries! No more thin hair!
Unfortunatley, I dusted my hair again..it’s ok I guess..

I need to take pictures.
No more dusts/trims until January…I must stop myself….ugh. I just hate my thin lye-relaxed ends. F lye.

Last night’s DC was awesome!!

Last night I DC’ed with Garnier Dry/Damaged conditioner mixed with Shea Butter, Sweet Almond Butter, Camellia Seed OIl, Castor Oil, Coconut Oil..it was SO freakin nice!! My hair had so much slip it was awesome
I need some more Lustrasilk Shea for deep conditioning..I’m picking up like 3 5lb tubs for real!

Sealing with oil makes my hair crunchy…

I’ve come to the conclusion that sealing my hair a lot (more than twice or three times a week) with oil makes it dry and crunchy. I haven”t sealed with oil for the past couple of days and my hair has been nicely moisturized..i plan on sealing with oil after I wash and deep condition.

I moisturized today with some ORS Olive Oil Moisturizing Lotion (the smell was absolutely disgusting) and Garnier Curl&Shine moisturizer. My hair is still soft!

ALSO, on another note..I’m starting to see that my hair HATES Herbal Essences LTR Leave-In. It’s always crunchy whenever i use it..no matter if I’ve just deep conditioned or anything..it’s absolutely atrocious..however using it on wet hair is ok..just not on dry hair.

My hurr was dry…

things i did differently:

1. Moisturize with Herbal essences LTR
2. Airdry hair free, not in braid
3. Not seal with camellia seed

I think the LTR caused protein overload, but the main problem was my airdrying method. My hair was dry as the sahara! I used all moisture this wash and deep conditioned for about 4 hours with Lustrasilk Shea+Sweet Almond Butter+Shea Butter+Camellia Seed Oil+Castor+Coconut

Hendigo went well!

It was messy but well worth the bling and color!! I can’t believe i just colored my hair PERMANENTLY black naturally with no damage My hair is soft and it’s not even dry! I think it’s because i deep conditioned before AND after the process. I added salt to the indigo also to help with the color release. I’m going to re-hendigo in 4 weeks with the LUSH Caca Noir Bar to get it to blue-black status! I hope it oxidizes even darker
