Maintaining My Braids



I maintained my braids for the last 2 weeks by following a very simple routine.

Moisturising and sealing: I moisturised and my hair twice a day with Crème of Nature leave in and sealed with an oil mix.

Co-wash and Deep conditioned: I used Aunt Jackie's in control conditioner (this conditioner acts as a co-wash and a deep conditioner). I applied it to my hair and worked it into my scalp before leaving it to sit for an hour under a plastic cap.

Once I rinsed out the conditioner I left my hair to air dry then blow dried my hair on a cool setting to make sure my hair was completely dry before re doing the braids at my nape and edge area.. 








Hair Update.

After my most recent relaxer (see details here) I have decided to make some changes to my hair regime.

Although my hair has grown I was not completely happy with the condition of my hair. Over the last few months I became lazy, I focused more on protective styling and less on the actual health of my hair. 

  • Until my next relaxer I will be concentrating on balancing on mouisture and protein. 
  • I will not be using any heat on my hair 
  • I will no longer be relaxing my nape until I can get over my nape damage. 
  • I will also be changing the way I maintain my hair whilst protective styling.
