Relaxer Prep Wash Day…

I’m just about 15weeks post relaxer and I’m ending my stretch this week.  I was planning for 16 weeks but I don’t want the hassle of relaxing my hair over Easter holidays. I just want to relax and spend some time with my family.

Relaxer prep hair products 

[1]   Prepooed with V05 Moisture milks for a few minutes mainly focusing on my ends.

[2]   Shampooed with ORS Creamy Aloe.  

[3]   With my hair in 4 sections applied Aphogee Two Step Protein Treatment and sat under my 
       hooded dryer for 20 mins . My hair was rock solid. Do not manipulate your hair in this 
       state.

[4]   Deep Conditioned with Queen Helene Cholesterol mixture and sat under my heat cap for 
       1 hour and rinsed.

[5]   Wrapped my hair in a t-shirt for 1hour. My hair felt so soft and moisturized.

[6]   My leave in conditioner’s were Mane n Tail detangler sprayed lightly on my roots only,  
       Elasta QP Leave in H2, Aussie Moist Conditioner and sealed with Extra Virgin Coconut
       Oil.  Detangling wasn't tedious given I’m just about 15weeks post.

Half way finished & completely finished blow drying my hair on cool

I sectioned my hair in the 4 original parts and worked each section at a time. I stretched about 1 inch in each section of hair while using the blow dryer on cool to run up and down the hair.  After one half, my arms were screaming but I kept pressing on,  until I was finished.  I couldn't believe how moisturized and shiny my hair was without the need to add a moisturizer #winning

The following day apply JBCO on my scalp. Applied Fruit of the Earth gel to my edges, softly brush my edges, tie my hair with a scarf for 45mins and head out the door.

After blow drying on cool . My hair wasn't combed but fluffed in this direction

I don’t intended to do any manipulation with my hair this week except to apply Vaseline to my scalp three days before relaxer. I chose to rock a loose bun so that I don’t have to comb or brush my hair all week. I'm going to my hairdresser to get a professional trim done. I haven't had one done in a while. I hope i don't come back screaming with the amount that will be cut.
