My Natural hair Photo update

[BlkOnyx488]

I have been using essential oils only on my hair, and cantu leave-in conditioner.

some night I baggie my hair, some nights I am lazy and do nothing.
I wear my hair in my natural fro, but I straighten every two or three months to check my hair growth progess

My last update was 12/10/08

And here's tonights update 2/21/09

I don't have an ultimate goal length yet, I am still a little paranoid that my hair "doesn't grow". but My short term Goal is I want my bangs to grow past my chin. not to far now my bangs are at my lip. in December as you can see they were at the tip of my nose. So it's going!!

Night all

2 drops Atlas cedarwood essential oil ( Cedrus atlantica )
3 drops Lavender essential oil( Lavandula angustifolia )
3 drops Rosemary essential oil ( Rosmarinus officinalis )

I add a few drops of tea oil for the scalp tingle

Sounds interesting. Can you tell me more about your reggie?

Your hair is doing great! How do you get it so straight? I can NEVER get mine to look like that!

 

[BlkOnyx488]

use a Helix nano Slim straightner.
I have to pre-prep my hair. I wash it with cantu Leave conditioner
while it's still soaking wet I detangle and put it in twist.

Once it's almost dry Iuse my blow dryer in small section
I use and ace comb has a wide tooth side and thinner tooth side
I really focus on getting the ends relaxed.

Once it's dry. I put grapeseen and jojoba oil in my hair, and then I straighten it. sometimes it stays fuzzy, but I don't like to use a lot of hair at one time. so I will wrap my hair and keep it flat over night. then
staighten it a little better the next day.

I know it's quite a process but I can't seem to get it perfectly straight with on or two passes with my straighner. but once I get t ends the way I want as long as I wrap it at night the ends stay nice.

Your hair is doing great! How do you get it so straight? I can NEVER get mine to look like that!

I think the last photos look amazing. Your regimen is working for you...the hair is longer and appears to be healthier. It has sheen and everything!
