I am new to the site and would like to know how can I create a hair regimen? Normally, I wear lots of braids but I would like to wear my permed hair out one day without being ashamed of its shortness.
From the site you all have given me valuable information such as the pre-poo treatment, co-washing, and etc. Now that I have taken my hair out of braids I'm not sure how to build a regimen. So, far I use the WGO, EVOO, Shea Butter, Creme of Nature Shampoo, and VO5 Condition. I would like to know:
Which products should I be using to promote hair growth?
What is a protein condition and which brand to use?
It looks like you have a good list of products but i don't see a deep conditioner, you will need one of those. Examples: cholesterol or lamaur bone marrow.
You will also need a good leave-in: such as Infusium 23( safe for daily use on your braids and you can add honey or glycerin and liquid aloe vera to this)
You can't repair splits- you have to trim them.
You should wash your hair weekly. I am natural so when not in protective syling- i co-wash daily.
Daily moisturizers would be like: S-curl spray or a water/glycerin spritz.
HTH.

~Deep Condition with a conditioner that says "moisturzing" by sitting with the conditioner
~put a leave in afterwards
~moisturize your hair Daily
~avoid combing (even with wide tooth).
~avoid heat
This is the BASIC regimine. There are of course clarifying shampoos and protein treatments that should be used once a month. If you decide to take vitamins than you must incoperate that into you regimine (idk how vitamins work)
I forgot my password, but I would like to say thanks to you both for helping me.
The regimen that I have been implementing is as follows:
-ORS hair mayo 1X week
-Silk Elements Shampoo and Creme of Nature
-Deep Conditioner 1X week with Doo Goo
-Aphogee Protein conditioner
-no heat
-Dialy moisturizer with Revive and Restore
-WGO every other day
-Kemi Oyl, jojoba oil, and EVOCC to conditioners
-Add egg and honey to conditioners
What is the best clarifying shampoo, and how does it help my hair?
This week I plan to get more hair oils (ie. Tea Tree, Carrot oil, and Doo Goo mega thick). Also, I need to buy Infusium 23 to use as my leave-in conditioner. Since taking my braids out, I have not gotten a relaxer. I have been wearing wigs for a month and plan to get a relaxer this weekend. I would like to know will my hair still be healthy and grow despite me wearing wigs all the time. Also, can you tell me the best relaxers to use? I am thinking about getting ORS.
