At 14weeks post relaxer,
the only way to blend both textures is doing some form of curls because flat
ironing isn't even a question for me . Since I just had a full wash day I opted for a
quick co-wash. Don' forget to check out Miss Dre Liebster Award questions here.
[1] Deep Conditioned with my Queen Helene Cholesterol mixture on dry hair for 20mins
and rinsed.
[2] Cleansed my scalp with Aussie Moist Conditioner.
[3] Wrapped my hair in a
t-shirt for 45mins to absorb the excess water.
[4] Before applying my leave
in conditioners I sprayed my hair with Mane n Tail detangler
on my roots. This
detangler is no joke, it literally melts my tangles away. Applied my
leave in
conditioners of Aphogee Keratin & Green Tea Restructurizer , Aussie Moist
Conditioner, Herbal Essences Split End Protector(on my ends) and Coconut oil to
my
hair and detangled again carefully. I had no issues detangling at all.
[5] I sectioned my hair in 4
(2 at the front & at the back) and used my wide width comb first,
then a
smaller comb to make sure there were no knots or tangles before rolling the
hair.
I had my moisturizing spray
bottle on hand to keep my hair moist before rolling unto the flexi-rods. I used end wrap papers to
secure the ends as the rolled the hair up in a spiral set.
It took me about 1hr &
15mins to install 25 rods. Before getting under my hooded dryer I used my trusted
Tresemme Heat Tamer spray and sat under the hooded dryer for 30mins. Since I was going to the midnight service I let
the rest of my hair air dry.

I only pulled apart the curls at he back and side to eliminate the spaces but pretty much left the

. I definitely increased my water intake to ensure minimum break-outs happened and I succeeded.
