Products I Use

After 3 months transitioning, I did the big chop. I wasn’t going to do it so soon but after I removed my micro braids washed and conditioned I had such a tangled mess so I just did it. The micro braids left my edges very damaged (I should have known better). I always say I'm never going to do it again but then I wind up sitting there for hours getting my hair braided. Well after this time i mean it never, ever again!

CO/WASH : No shampoo just wash with cheap conditioner preferably without cones.
Vo5 or Suave Naturals tropical coconut w/vitamin E, or if i have nothing baking soda.

Pre-Poo: Treatment before washing hair for a couple of hours or over night wearing plastic cap.

Virgin or extra Virgin Coconut oil, i mix it with other oils because coconut oil can be drying over time.

SHAMPOO/WASH: One a week any moisturizing shampoo without sulfates
Cream Of Nature moisturizing Shampoo *Update Revlon felt the need to fix something that wasn't broke and i don't know if they will stop this particular line altogether but it's very hard to find right now.

CONDITIONER: After co/wash
TRESemme Vitamin Moisture Rich (for dry damaged hair)

LEAVE-IN/DETANGLER: To condition & detangle also spray on at night before bed.
In a spray bottle I add Nexxus Humectress, Headdress weightless leave-in conditioner add,olive oil, water, vitamin E, Evening primrose, honey

Moisturizer/Styling: Used for my twist out.
Mango Elasta QP Mango butter
Jamaican Mango & Lime Mango Shea Butter Lotion
Although this isn't for hair the ingredients were so good that I started using it. And I love it. My hair is so soft using the two together *Update I do not use this on my hair anymore because the ingredients have been changed.

Oils: seals in moisture.used after washing and nightly especially in parts on scalp
Mixture of jojoba oil, (pronounced ho-ho-ba) aloe,coconut,sweet almond, olive, peach kernal, carrot, evening primrose, vitamin e, I add essential oils.
