Notice I said all out spa day and give MYSELF a hot oil treatment. Even if I did have that kind of money I don't see why I should give it to someone else when I can do it myself!
Chile you got me all wrong. I am a kitchen-hairdresser and certified DIY'er so anything I suggest, best believe it's getting done right in my bathroom.
Good going with thr routine butterfly. Sounds like you are on the right path to your hair goals.
I was off from work this week so I was able to give some true TLC to my mane. Started the week with a Avocado Mask, Hot oil treatment, wash, cholestrol treatment and conditioner. I wore my hair in a bun this week and kept my hair moisturized with Palmers Coconut Oil Hair Milk, S-Curl Activator, Amla (2 days) and Grogranics (3 days scalp massage). Last night when I got in from hanging out, I put another hot oil treatment and then prepooed with a mix of conditioners. I woke up this morning and washed the prepoo out then shampooed with Palmers Coconut oil moisturizing shampoo, conditioned with Nairobi Dandra Solv Therapeutic condition while in the shower. Washed that out and added Palmers Coconut oil Moisturizing conditioner. After rinsing the Palmers conditioner out, I put a small amount of Palmers Coconut Hair Milk in my hair and a small amount of Silicon Mix (Dominican product). Both are leave-ins.
To say the least, I have a good report. During the wet comb out I have less shedding!!!!!!! Praise GOD! It has been coming out in chunks. In the last three weeks, I would take my comb through wet or dry and a mound of hair would just come out. I am oh so happy about this change in procedure. Thank you for your suggestions and I plan to continue the garlic pills I realize they are also good for my heart!
This was a lesson for me, just because your hair is growing you need to add TLC to maintain it! I was not doing no more than what I felt it needed. Now I am a little bit wiser with my moisture and protein balance. That is where a girl was slipping!

I haven't given my hair a good treatment for a few months now. I'm going to do an all out spa day and give my self a hot oil treatment and all the bells and whistles. Sometimes I gotta take a ME day, all you ladies should as well.
Washed with garlic shampoo followed by a protein conditioner used as a leave-in...wrapped up in a scarf to dry...once dry massaged scalp with jojoba oil and rubbed a lil throughout hair
*hairs big & fluffy right now*

You're welcome...I also need to get garlic pills because the garlic shampoo I have dries my hair out so much and I wanna see if the pills would work better. Yup..I don't know, I don't do protein treatments regularly (I recently tried an egg in my hair) but that was it, but conditioners like Suave or VO5 have protein in them, along with leave-in conditioners, and some moisturizers.
"A great black hair care regimen will include the following: a high quality shampoo, preferably an all natural one, a high quality conditioner, natural hair oils for a healthy scalp, and an all natural daily moisturizing lotion, cream, or serum. For added perks, a hair healthy black hair care routine will also include a monthly hot oil treatment and protein treatments"
