It's been over a year since I've stopped relaxing and I'm loving it. During that year I've been stuck on youtube and various hair blogs listening and reading about what others do to protect their hair. I hear a lot about using protective styling but since I cant twist or braid in a manner that makes me want to go public I've balked at the idea. The thing is, during this time, I've moved to a colder region of the country and with the climate hitting 40s in October I now see the need to cover up and protect not just my skin but my hair. So I'm trending to get some braid in by the 15th of the month. I will be going to a professional though.
Braids are a great way to protect your hair while ensuring that your hair still gets to breathe. You can chose numerous styles and textures. I plan to get them installed and wear them for about 4- 6 weeks. However, since my hair will be partially confined I want to make sure that I fully deep condition with a moisture and protein rich conditioner.
My Deep Conditioning Mix:
1 Whole Egg
1 ounce Giovanni's Deep Conditioner
3 tsps Avocado Oil
2 tsps Jojoba oil
1tsp Honey
2tsps Aloe Vera Juice
Work it into the hair and steam with a steam cap on for 15 minutes. Hair should be nice and smooth.
