Wash Day: Relaxer Preparations…

This is typically what my relaxer prep day looks like, however I’ll list the products used below. Single strand knots have been trying to take over my life for the last 3weeks and I’m so over this stretch. I’m ready to straighten my curls.

How I Prep My Hair For Relaxer Day

[1]   Detangled with my Mane n Tail detangler and a wide width comb.

[2]   Prepooed with Aussie Moist Conditioner on the length of my hair for 30mins and sat under

       my heat cap.

[3]   Shampooed with ORS Creamy Aloe Shampoo (remove build up)

[4]   Applied my all-time favorite Aphogee 2 Step Protein Treatment and sat under my hooded

       dryer for 15mins until my hair was rock solid.  I can’t say this enough and I’ll continue to

       say it, this treatment is no joke, please don’t touch your hair or attempt to comb or brush 

       your hair until the treatment has been washed out. My hair felt sooo much stronger after 

       rinsing out the product.

Aphogee 2 Step Protein Treatment

[5]   Applied Aphogee Balancing Moisturizer for 2 mins and rinsed

[6]   Deep Conditioned with my Queen Helene mixture for 45mins and sat under my heat cap. 

      I love how my hair feels after using this mixture because its so moisturizing.

[7]   Rinse and wrapped my hair in a t-shirt for 1 hour.

[8]   With my hair in 4 sections applied Herbal Essence Split Ended Protector (my ends) and 

       Aussie Moist Conditioner and detangled very carefully.

[9]   Air-dry and appllied JBCO on my scalp and moisturize with Elasta QP Olive oil & Mango 

       Butter and seal with Coconut Oil.

[10] My hair style of choice is a simple braid inside of a banana clip and avoid putting my 

       hands or tools in my hair till relaxer day.  I'm currently 15weeks post relaxer.
