Daily Moisturizing Experiment Summary

Posted 04-15-2013 at 11:04 AM by faithVA

So 35 days of moisturizing are over. I didn't have phenomenal results. After 35 days of daily moisturizing I am unable to report that my hair is softer, more hydrated or better feeling. At this length between twa and NL it is very time consuming and complicated to moisturize daily.

What I was able to do is experiment with a lot more product combinations. I clearly see that products with glycerin are a necessary part of my regimen. Baggy does work for me on a least a small scale. And...

30+ Days of Daily Moisturizing (Days 22-28)

Posted 04-08-2013 at 09:40 AM by faithVA

No major improvements yet but definitely improvements. My hair stays at least a 6.5 and I think I can keep it at least a 7.5. The protein has definitely helped. The daily moisturizing would do nothing without it. I think cowashing will help but I need more length for a quick go to style before I can do it more.

Last week I learned:
1. Misting and baggying prevents me from having to mist each section. But not sure if misting with water, misting with tea or misting with diluted...

30+ Days of Daily Moisturizing (Days 15-21)

Posted 04-02-2013 at 12:31 PM by faithVA

My hair is still breaking but It definitely is less than before. I think it needs more protein because it tends to break when I am misting it and then trying to twist. When my hair is dry there is little to no breakage. Moisturizing and sealing every day is still a challenge but so far I have been consistent. My hair is starting to feel better and look just a little better.

Last week I learned:
--Tight curls/twist make my hair appear to be hard. I need to wait an hour after...

2013 Start of Year Regimen

Posted 12-20-2012 at 03:37 PM by faithVA

If you have read previous posts then you know I have had regimens but none successful. I think now I have a start of one that will carry me through 2013.

I intend to wear finger coils through the 1st quarter to keep my hands out of my hair. I will reassess my style in April to see if I have other alternatives.

I will continue to wash weekly until my hair is long enough to allow me to cowash and style quickly mid-week.
