Staples

I have to say that I'm in love with Tresemme Naturals hair conditioner! To me it's comparable to Giovanni Smooth as Silk, see the video for more info on my staples.

Triple Bun

Having now gained a bit a length I'm learning to stretch my hair and have fun with it!

Finally a routine!

I haven’t posted in a looong while, and I really should be better at this blogging malarkey , but I just post when I think I’ve something worth writing about, and as for my ingredient a week that’s gone out the window, but also I don’t want to reveal too much about what’s in my products just yet!

Anyhow the reason I’m posting now is because I finally have a hair routine! This will be my 4^th week of my 6 week cycle and I have noticed improvements in my hair. Before I reveal that, something that has drastically changed my hair and the amount I loose on wash day is NOT USING A COMB, BRUSH OR TANGLE TEEZER TO DETANGLE, yes I only finger detangle every week and comb detangle with my Hercules Comb once a month. I don’t get any fairy knots and tangles have drastically reduced. Also since gaining a bit of length I’m enjoying playing with my stretched hair, rather than putting twists in straight from washing, I now braid with a leave in, leave it to dry then the next day play with my hair.

So here is my 6 week routine

WEEK 1

Comb detangle with conditioner, water and veg glycerine – braiding hair into sections - rinse

Leave hair in braids and was with Aubrey Organics GPBShampoo

Undo braids and apply Revive UK’s breakage treatment in sections using Ouchless bands - from Asda (I replace ayurvedic powders that she uses with 5tsp of Kalpi Tone, deep conditioner used Aubrey Organics GPB Conditioner) – leave for 30mins and rinse

Apply Giovanni Smooth as Silk braid hair and rinse

WEEK 2 & 5

Wash hair in sections using Afro Shampoo Bar

Apply Hibisculious Deep Conditioner (BeUNIQUE Hair Care) braid hair, leave for an hour and rinse

WEEK 3 & 6

Apply Avocado Glaze ((BeUNIQUE Hair Care) braid hair and steam

Wash with Giovanni 50/50 Balanced Shampoo

Condition with Tresemme Naturals

WEEK 4

Bentonite Clay Mask

1 Cup of Bentonite Clay

½ Marshmallow Root Powder

¼ cup conditioner

¼ of coconut milk

Up to 500ml of water (can be infused with herbs)

1tsp Jojoba Oil

1 tsp. Castor Oil

Other info

I use Shea Passion Milkshake (BeUNIQUE Hair Care) as a leave in and Mango Twist (BeUNIQUE Hair Care) to style. To moisturise daily I use a herbal infusion with brown algae extract and I also may use Nettle Tea Cream (BeUNIQUE Hair Care) to moisturise and soften the hair.

As you can see I’m trying to use my products on my hair on a regular basis to really see what the effects are.
