In just under a month my hair has grown 1/2". And I have made the decision to just shampoo and condition my hair in that order, nothing special. It worked when I had long hair in the past. And I have better things to do than have a special 'ritual' for washing my hair. It just doesn't work with who I am. Nothing against those of you who do have a special way ie: CWC, COW, etc. In fact I commend you, I would never be able to do it consistently.

Well done Cassie!

The more complicated a routine you have (if it's not your style), and the more you feel burdened by looking after your hair, the more likely you are to get frustrated and chop it all off I think!

I humbly invite you to apply for membership of the Benign Neglect Club

Benign neglect, that's for me.

Basically, it's somewhat of a a compromise between simplicity and results.  I consider my routine to be fairly simple, but with reasonably good results.  Comb, brush, shower (wash, condition, rinse w/cool water, diluted vinegar rinse), and comb-out takes a total of about 45 minutes, once every 5-7 days.  Occasionally smooth in a tiny bit of jojoba.  That's about it.

I'm in favor of people choosing whatever routine (effort) works (results) for them.

Thanks to all of you.

Philosophy Girl, if you would be ever so kind as to point me in the right direction I would like to apply to join the Benign Neglect Club.

And Dave your hair is so pretty. I love how the ends look all wispy.

Hey Cassie.....I think your hair looks great! 

Is the wave natural?

Actually denika_s when I made the manupulation my hair had been in a messy bun like thingy and so when I copied a section and pasted it made it look super wavey. It really only has one big wave on the bottom half.

Thank you philosophy girl for accepting my application. Second club that was super easy to get into. The first was high school Gay Straight Alliance. I miss those days.

That's a plus?    (Well, I know there are fans of "fairy-tale" ends.  I'm just not so much among them -- at least, not to the extent to which my ends taper to nothing).  Anyway, thanks for your compliment, Cassie!
