What's the name of the macadamia conditioner you are using?
 
 
well i got it from the philippines the brand is called Palmolive which is kinda weird cause in the U.S. it's dish washing liquid???
my relatives send it to me. maybe you can search for it on the net.

I also use silk touch leave in. It is really good. I am curently using care free curl right after I wash and sealing with WGO. I braid or roller set to air dry then apply Biosilk to protect hair from heat

Always use a heat protectant!! And don't forget the leave in cond after you wash your hair. Seal that moisture in girl cause the heat takes it right back out

If you like your hair straight you can try a roller set. I am about 3/4 months post relaxer and i do a roller set to protect my ends then just worry about straightening the new growth with flat iron or blowdryer

As far as styles you could try braidouts, twistouts, buns, bantu knots, braid extensions, flat twists, french rolls etc.. http://www.motowngirl.com/how_to.php
You didnt mention any type of moisturizer, make sure you get a good one and use it at least once a day or every other day, especially on your new growth and ends.
 
Good Luck!
