– Wash once every week
[alternating between Shampoo and Conditioner]
– Moisturise and seal every day/night
– Trim ends when necessary
The Wash…
Prepoo* | I prepoo every wash day which softens and prepares my hair for washing, whilst also protecting it from being stripped
Wash/Clarify | I wash / co-wash my hair once a week and clarify usually once every two months.
Condition | I DC with heat for 20-30 minutes using the HairTherapyWrap. I use a moisturising DC most wash days and a protein DC when my hair feels weak and/or when I will be using direct heat during styling
Other | Coconut Oil Relaxer – this is done once a week
Upkeep and styling…
Leave-in | After washing I dry my hair with a t-shirt and follow up with a Leave-in and then proceed to styling my hair. I dry by either blowdrying or airdrying in twists
Moisturiser/ Sealant | I moisturise and seal every other day + also baggy my hair once a week
Heat | Before applying heat to my hair I always use a Heat Protectant
Scalp Stimulation | I massage my scalp and apply oil to it every every 2-3 days using a stimulating scalp oil.
