My hair type and hair care rituals

Type: 4c

Hair loves: Protein and moisture
Length: NL
Goal: SL by June 2013

Ritual

Pre-poo (x 2 per week)

- Conditioner, EVOO and Honey (when I remember to add it)
- I tend to use protein and moisture based

Shampoo (x 2 per week)

- I try to use SLS free shampoo's but some of those containing SLS work better on my hair
- Every month I use a clarifying shampoo just to get rid of the product build up.

Deep condition (x 2 per week)

- Again, I tend to alternate between a moisture based and protein based conditioner and sometimes just mix two together. I am going to start adding EVOO, EVCO or some other oil to this.

Final rinse

I used to and read online that a lot of people are having great results using clear rinses, so I will try this as of December.


Hard hat/Reconstuction (1 x every 6 weeks)

Every 6 weeks I use a heavy protein treatment to help prevent breaking/shedding.


That's it!
