    Awesome video! October 2022, I have reduced my wash days from 4x to 2x a month. I leave my hair ALONE more. I've increased my trims to every 3 months by a professional stylist. My ends have never been so thick and healthy! 🙌🏾

  • @dmariebouie
    @dmariebouie Před rokem +9

    Goal: I'm in the TWA stage w/ low porosity and what works is washing 2x week, deep condition weekly, and DIY scalp treatment 2x week. I also saw my hair stays softer if I wrap silk scarf at night under a satin bonnet. In the morning, I spritz aloe vera/water, a tiny bit of leave-in and curls come to life. This channel really helped me nail down the right "routine" and "products". Hair is soft, curl defined and growing!

    Thanks for the info about Ritual -- will be checking it out. Actions taking this year: Get back to prepooing regularly, including hot oil treatments and oil rinsing (it's been a long time since I've done that); be consistent; get a good trim; give more TLC to my crown area especially with my DHT blockers; get back to premaking my Ayurvedic masks ahead of time and place in the freezer to save time; scalp massages and use heat more for better saturation (e.g., heating cap, hooded dryer or steamer).

    I’m currently on a March challenge of massaging every night while wearing mini twist. My hair is high porosity so I LOC with Vaseline 🤩🤩🤩 or grease every night and deep condition weekly. So far I’ve only missed one night. January was weekly Rosemary and garlic rinse (boiling method) and oil rinsing after deep conditioning. I chose a more natural hair products and my hair loves it. So far everything is going well. AND MOST IMPORTANT I stopped air drying my scalp because it was sore and tender aka inflammation. I’ll come out the shower, start mini twist or let it air dry for an hour, and then just hold the blow dryer to my scalp.
    Yes I’m so serious about my growth this year. I had literally have a calendar at my desk to remind me.

    🌋Goal: I'm moisturizing my hair consistently this year and protecting my hair properly.
    🌲Releasing: I'm not stressing about my tresses or practicing self-consciousness or disappointment with my crown's current fullness, volume, and length.
    🧣I have decided to embrace my natural hair growth by supporting the retention of my length with loving nourishment, protective styles, and maintenence trims. I'm further welcoming the abundant fullness of my mane by approaching my haircare with an encouraging attitude: knowing my desired density and each of my hair goals is easily attainable for me, believing that my hair is healthful and radiant, and trusting that my TLC towards my hair manifests my flourishing crown.
    Much love & luck for each of you along your hair journey!❤

After swim I would use a chlorine swimmer shampoo and conditioner. Babo every time afterwards to remove chlorine. Then every two weeks I would wash normal. My first wash was a clarifying shampoo then moisturizing shampoo and deep conditioner. I just wore hair out, no protective styles when I swam.
