Hair regimen –

My hair regimen stays the same although I like to switch up products from time to time.

Prepoo

Shampoo

Protein when needed. (Usually once or twice a month)

Deep condition for 30 to 45 minutes with heat

Creamy leave in

Air dry in plaits or roller set with magnetic or flexirods and sit under dryer

Cowash twice a week

I stretch my relaxers 6 months at a time. During the 6 months; I only use direct heat about 3 times; if that. I love protective styling.

When and why did you start your healthy hair journey?

Well you would have thought that I would have been done with my stylist when she gave me a Mizani relaxer and didn’t rinse it out good resulting in my nape being damaged or putting a rinse in my hair and when I left with a Cherry Cola jazzing stain running down my forehead; but that didn’t stop me from going. LOL .I got serious about taking care of my hair in July 2008 when I read a hair article that Gennifer Miller posted on AOL Black Voices.

What is the best piece of advice you've gotten to obtain healthy textured hair?

1. Textured hair needs Moisture. 2. Detangle from tip to root. 3. Do what works for you and be consistent. 4. Patience is a virtue.
