Seriously! I really can't believe this is my hair. Sunday I decided to stop mixing different conditioners together for my DC and my results amazed me. This is what I did:
1. DC'd w/ Silk Elements MegaSilk, glycerin, aloe vera juice and oil (EVOO, avocado oil, almond oil and JBCO) with heat for 1 hr and 2 hrs w/o heat
2. co-washed w/ Tresemme Naturals
3. applied Cantu Shea Butter Leave-In Conditioning Repair Cream and sealed w/ tiny bit of EVCO
4. air dried
5. finger combed when hair was 80% dry
6. lightly detangled w/ shower comb
7. moisturized w/ mix (S-Curl, aloe vera juice and glycerin) and sealed w/ EVCO
8. oiled scalp (JBCO, Wild Growth Oil and macadamia oil)
I didn't see any results immediately. When I rinsed my hair it didn't really feel that good. It felt a little tangly but I decided not to detangle using my shower comb. I used my fingers instead. I co-washed and my hair still didn't really feel any different. After air drying to about 80% I started to detangle my hair using my fingers instead of my shower comb. It was SUPER easy! No breakage! And I only had a few shedded hairs in the shower and after detangling. My hair was soft and it actually FELT moisturized. So I thought it was a fluke so I tried it again...and yep! same results. This is going to be my new go-to for DC'ing and detangling. I'm still trying to bounce back from that relaxer set-back so I still have thin sections. I'm doing my length check on 19 Dec at the salon. The plan is to pre-poo at home, get hair washed, DC'd and flat ironed at the salon. I'm bringing my own products and flat iron. I'll be taking a picture before & after my trim. I won't allow more than 1 inch, the goal is just to get even ends so I can monitor whether my hair is breaking or not.
Anyway, check out my pics from today's DC:
