New Regime for 2008

Filed under: Generally Hair — by Courtney Smith @ 6:56 pm

1. Wash weekly (low manipulation). Prepoo w/ anything. Baking Soda clarify every other week. Nexxus clarify before relaxer.
2. Moisturize two times daily with S-curl/NTM and seal with Courtney’s hair butter(I’m going to whip this butter because it is hella hard).
3. Deep condition weekly with Proclaim Aloe&Shea and protein prepoo every 6 weeks or so.
4. Relax every 3 months with ORS No-Lye regular with one teaspoon of oil added.
5. Detangle in sections under running water.
6. Vitamins every day//Salad every day.
7. Protective style/bun/braid daily.
8. No heat except hooded dryer to deep condition.

Combine all the ingredients and put in microwave for 30 seconds. Pour into sterilized container and put in refrigerator until solid.

ETA: Ahh the butter is solid! It’s so yummy lookin’ I love it! I’m going to use it to seal after moisturizing 🙂
It smells so flowery and yummy too b/c my fragrance oil!
Ok my hair loves this butter! I’m gonna use it up then make it again with different butters! 😀
I didn’t add enough fragrance though because the ickypoo butter smell is still kinda there lol

Avocado oil is my friend…

omg i put a tad bit of avocado oil on a part of my bangs and instant softness, shininess, and silkiness…it’s a keeper!
also, i mixed up some coconut milk powder and water and the mix was heavenly! It smelled soooo good! My coconut milk (1/4cup) is in the fridge getting ready to be used tomorrow! So far everything has been so nice!

My hair is thickk

Filed under: Generally Hair — by Courtney Smith @ 10:28 pm

I think that my current regime is really nice. Focusing on oils and butters is going to make my hair much thicker and healthier!

On Wednesday I’m going to do an oil w/ coco oil, shampoo, then dc with an avocado mix. I dunno though because I’ve heard it’s a HASSLE.
