Hair Checkup / Check In

Hi Curlies,

I have been sooo lax about posting.  But I am newly determined to keep better track of my hair journey.  Since the last time I posted I finally did my BC and I love it!  I did transition for 7 months and I had every intention of going until the end of year.  However, I was hospitalized for a bout of pneumonia and when I came out I just didn't have the energy to deal with two hair textures.  On 7/20/12 I went to Shear Xtasy Salon here on my island and I sat in the chair ready to do it.  When I walked out of the salon, I felt so free!  Now my journey is focused on hair health, curl definition (moisture/protein balance) and length retention.  My daily regimen consists of: 1)water, glycerin & oil mist, 2) Quenched Curls leave in condition from Curls and 3) Whipped Cream from Curls.  At night: 1) water. glycerin & oil mist, 2) oil of my choice (coconut, Reconstructive Elixir from Shea Moisture or Champagne & Caviar Elixir from Curls) and 3) 100% Shea Butter.  I've also been co-washing twice weekly with Coconut Sublime Conditioner from Curls and I do a deep condition bi-weekly with Alikay Naturals Honey & Sage Deep Conditioner.  I will try to post pics of all the products in another post (I'm just too lazy & tired right now).  So far I have been getting excellent curl definition, and really great comments.  Tomorrow I am going to do a pre-poo with some cheapy condition and lots of oil (coconut & olive) and I may throw in some honey for good measure.  I will post pics of that process tomorrow.

Good Night Curlies.....here's to happy hair!
