Wash Day {KLP}

This week I did another hybrid protein/moisture deep condition. I'm totally looking forward to straighting in a few weeks to see if this protein layering technique is as awesome as I think it is. 

Products

1. Detangled- with my fingers and a bit of my Tangerine Scented Aloe Vera Juice.
2. Cleansing Cream (Shampoo)- I applied a generous amount of my DIY Co-cleansing cream to my tresses concentrating on the roots. I let it sit for 3-4 minutes then rinsed.
3. Extreme Deep Condition- with Jessicurl Deep Treatment on my roots, Macadamia Oil Deep Repair Masque on my ends, then massaged extra virgin coconut oil into my strands from root to tip. I covered with a plastic cap, relaxed under my heat cap for about 2 hours, then left it in overnight.
4. Smoothing Treatment- with a large dollop of Matrix Biolage Detangling Solution.
5. Air Dried- to 80-85% wrapped in a cotton t-shirt. 
6. Leave-Ins- Herbal Essences Touchably Smooth Split End Protector and my kitchenista Tangerine Vanilla Whipped Hair Butter.

Results: 

Shed Hair

Wet Texlaxed Hair

Less than a pea sized total amount of loss hair. I really can't believe it. All of my long term stretches have been plagued with breakage, tangles, and general hair disrespect. But not this one. My roots are soft, my ends are strong, and I'm living on to stretch another week. *throws confetti* I don't know what the confetti is for, but I feel like a G right now. To style, of course I bantu knotted my hair (without holding product) and whipped it up into a cute updo for my company Holiday party.

Anyone else deep in a stretch? How are you surviving?

Besitos!
