Co-Wash Day

Hey everyone! Today I have a quick hair post. I ended up co-washing today because my updo was becoming an up-don’t. I also wanted to be able to get to my scalp and get all the product out of my hair.

 

• Prepooed with V05 Tea Therapy and grapeseed oil
• co-washed with V05 Moisture Milks Passion Fruit
• Conditioned with Organix Awapuhi Ginger Conditioner
• Air dried about 70%
• Applied leave-ins (African Pride Braid Sheen Spray, Grapeseed Oil, Elasta QP Mango Butter)

I don’t normally prepoo when cowashing but I did this time to help soften up the parts of my hair that were hard from the eco-styler gel. This was my first time using the Organix Awapuhi conditioner and I actually really like it. It gave my hair a lot more slip than I expected since it has protein in it.  After my hair finishes air-drying I plan on doing a flexi-rod set with the back and sides pinned up.

What’s your co-wash routine?

Wash Day

This is a late post I actually washed my hair on Saturday.

• Prepooed overnight the night before with a mixture of V05 Moisture Milks and grapeseed oil.
• Shampooed with Palmers Coconut Formula Moisturizing Shampoo.
• Deep Conditioned for 30 mins with Hask Natural Essentials Complete Conditioning Treatment Packet.
• My hair felt a little dry still so I conditioned again for 5 mins with Organix Argan Oil Conditioner
• Applied Elasta QP Mango Butter Leave-in and grapeseed oil.
• Air dried and styled in a braiding hair bun/mohawk.

Wash Day and Length Check

This week I was due for a protein treatment since I am six weeks post.  I  figured this would be a good week to straighten my hair and do a length check since it would be strengthened from the protein.
