The Length Check

Silly Me! I forgot to post my length check.

First Post

So here I am with my first post. I'll be telling you what I did and what products I used.

 From October 31, 2010 to December 6, 2010 I had worn my hair in twists. 

I had these for 10/31/10 - 12/06/10

I had many Styles with my twists

And from December 10, 2010 to January 12, 2011 I wore my hair in micro braids. Regretfully from my constant tugging on my hair, I was pulling out my hair. So I had to take my hair down earlier than I would have liked. 

This was they Day I got Braided up.

I had Numersous styles and freedom with these braids

While I my hair was braided and twisted every other day, I used 

I only washed my hair when I took down my styles.

 So on Tuesday January 18, 2011, I gave myself a relaxer. It was my first relaxer since September 2010. I used Luster's Pink Brand Olive Oil Relaxer.

After I relaxed and washed my hair, I blow dried and flat ironed my hair. Everyday I put olive oil in my hair because my hair gets dry and dull. Oh let me state that I have 4B type hair so my hair is really coarse at times. 10 days later, I deep conditioned my hair with my own little mixture.

Here are a list of products I used:

Organic Root Stimulater Olive Oil Replenishing Conditioner

Herbal Essence Hello Hydration Moisturizing Conditioner

Olive Oil 

Queen Helene Ginseng & Tea Tree Oil Treatment

Pantene ProV Relaxed & Natural Daily oil Moisturizer

I left this concoction in about 3 hours. Before I rinse I detangle, then shampoo with Herbal Essence Hello Hydration Shampoo and conditioner. I towel dried and before I blow dried my hair I added 

Got2B CrazySleek Blow Dry & Flat Iron Lotion as heat protectant.

Afterwards I oil my scalp with Africa's Best Maximum Strength Super Grow Hair & Scalp Conditioner and sleep in a satin cap. I don't usually flat iron my hair directly after blow drying so I did that the day after. 

See Ya!!!

  

Welcome aboard!!!

Hello All. 

Welcome to my hair & health journey. 

The other day my cousin gave me the idea to measure the length of my hair the same day every month. And I thought to myself Hmmm... Why not blog my journey? I am currently unemployed and on break from school so now more than ever is the best time to do this, especially it being the beginning of the year.

I am 20 years old and an entreprenuer with my graphic design business FOKISED GRAFIX! I am going to be blogging as often as possible but at least once month on length check day. 

I hope you enjoy this blog and give me feedback and suggestions. PLEASE! lol

Be Blessed
