Last wash day---I pulled my hair up into a bun. And there it stayed until this wash day. Ha-ha! I kinda moisturized and sealed. I kinda detangled. I kinda---didn't really wrap my hair at night. Inspite of my neglect, something amazing happened. As I prepped to wash my hair again, it felt AMAZING. It was still moisturized. It was still fluffy. It was still soft. Needless to say, I totally wanted a repeat performance of last week's wash day!
- Extreme Deep Condition- I deep conditioned on unwashed using Matrix Ultra Hydrasource Conditioner on my roots and Joico K Pak on my ends. Then I massaged my stands with extra virgin coconut oil, covered with a plastic cap and left it in overnight.
- Tea Rinse- using 2 Bamboo tea bags steeped in 2 cups of water + 2 tbsp of glycerin.
- Air Dry- with Extra Virgin Coconut Oil applied to wet hair then wrapped in a satin scarf.
- Leave ins- I used Jessicurl Too Shea Extra Moisturizing Conditioner to moisturize, my kitchenista Tangerine Vanilla Whipped Hair Butter to seal and then faux banded my hair.
Results:
It took me less than 45 minutes to tangle! Now, this may not seem like a big deal to you---but this is AMAZEBALLS for me. I'm totally crushing on everything about Matrix's Hydrasource conditioner. It's not often that I fall head over heels in love with a conditioner after two uses. The slip is to die for. The scent is heavenly. And the moisture---y'all---I've never experienced moisture overload before, but this conditioner just might do it! This week, I decided to throw a strengthening conditioner on my ends. I've been protein layering for several months now; it's safe to say that my ends are in great shape because of it.
I wish that I would have taken a picture of my detangled and banded hair. I love the look of big hair on me! To style, I set my hair on a few Caruso steam rollers for about 30 minutes and went on about my day. I promise that I'm not abandoning bantu knots---I think!
How was your wash day?
Besitos!
