Hi ladies! I haven't been on here for a while but I wanted to share that I've finally made the decision to go natural and I'm so excited. I don't plan to big chop any time soon though, I'm gonna transition by either wearing my hair straight or in roller sets. As of now I'm only 7 weeks and one day post my last relaxer, stretching my relaxer always did me more harm than good so this is just about the time I would relax again. I plan on doing a long transition, about 1 and a half to 2 years. I think I have a pretty good regimen in place, this is what I plan to do:
I'm gonna wash once a week and plan to DC with this wash,
Pre shampoo: kiehl's magic elixer on scalp and the reconstructive oil on the
strands, leave this in for 15 to 30 minutes
Shampoo: Kieh's Argan smoothing shampoo (love this) or either their olive oil or
amino acid one
DC: kiehl's olive oil pak (love this one) or Argan smoothing pak, followed by the matching instant conditioner.
Can u tell I love the kiehl's products, lol. For styling I'll use Red's Kitchen Sink products:
Leave in: herbal hair soufflé and silk pressing cream, air dry or blow dry on warm/cool air when in a rush, then flat iron. I don't go over 410 degrees. I'll alternate with roller setting and do this most of the time to keep the heat of my hair.
I'll give a review on Red's Kithchen Sink products in a few days, so far I'm loving them, I flat ironed my hair two days ago with the silk pressing cream and I still don't have any reversion. Their gel really control my edges and I don't look like I need a touch up.
Anyway I'm gonna figure out how to load pics so we can track my progress. Happy hair growing every one!!!
