Natural journey part two


BC


transitioning regime


Transitioning Regime 1

I've vowed to stop using heat in my hair. I want all the curls and kinks possible when I finally BC. I'm shifting to using products that ive either made at home or are organic and healthier for my hair.

So currently I:

Shampoo:
Dr. Bonners Peppermint soap. I dilute it with water [ or else it will make your hair hard], do two washes with it.

Condition:
With Suave [ I've blended olive oil as well as honey into mines] and usually let it sit for 15 to 30 depending on how much time I have.

Deep Treatment or deep conditioner:
I dont always do a DT or DC but when I do I love using my mayo, olive oil and honey mixture. [ I love both olive oil and honey very much!!!]

* I smooth on a few drops of Wild Growth and plait my hair up. After It completely dries, I oil my scalp with the Wild Growth and put 3 cornrows in. I knot the ends of each braid as if i were doing Bantu knots so the ends wont be so straight & put on a silk scarf with a stocking cap on top to prevent the scarf from slidding off.

Hopefully this helps someone, patiences is key. I keep reminding my self!!! 8P


FYI: I have noticed changes in my hair. It it becoming stronger and thicker as well. It has also gotten longer. The peppermint soap has been the ONLY shampoo that cleans my scalp and gives it that fresh feeling. It also leaves my scalp with a tingling feeling; gives me hope that my hair is growing..lol..lol.


11-14-08 I began taking Hair, Skin, & Nails supplements.


Supplements

So like i def think that these supplements are kickin in like I've noticed that they make me eat more and drink more ....i mainly drink water, milk and orange juice tho ...also my nails are growing in strong and they look all buffed and polished ..lol..lol... so im happy about that....no really lookin for a change in my skins i have no probs in that area my hair like ive kept up the no comb challenge and the edges challenges and i mainly think a combo of the three is helping. But the only changes are less breakage and shedding i can see my new growth and the waves at the top and my edges are slowly coming in .... i see the little fuzz and just get excited ...but i cant wait !!!!
