1. Washes (every week) - Sundays
My wash day routine basically starts the previous night. lol. I start with pre-pooing with castor oil the night before wash day.
I basically use what I feel my hair needs at that particular moment or I'll determine the kind of wash I need based on the week I had or based on the product build up.
My type of washes :
- Deep cleansing - this is when I use a shampoo
- Mild cleansing - this is when I use a sulfate free shampoo
- Strengthening wash/rinse - this is when I do my DIY's recipes for strengthening my hair e.. apple cider vinegar and black tea rinse
- Deep cleansing and moisturizing (my favorite) - this is when I do my mud wash. I use bentonite clay. I will be trying the rhassoul clay soon.
I will be posting more details on all of these methods right here on my blog. so look out for those posts. look out for the DIY's recipes as well, with further explanations on the benefits for each ingredient.
2. Co-wash ( once/twice a week)
To be honest at this point I haven't created a strict routine with co-washes, I tend to just do them whenever I feel like, but I want to change that.I co-wash my hair using any "cheapy" conditioner I have, depending on the mood or which ever I grab first. there will be a post about all the conditioners I use and what I look out for in a conditioner. be sure to look out for that.
3. Deep conditioning - (every week) - Sundays
I deep condition my hair after every wash so I do it after my wash session. My conditionings also depends on what my hair feels like or depending on the week I had.My types of deep conditioners:
- Deep moisture treatment - this is when I do my deep penetrating conditioning
- Deep protein treatment - when I do my protein treatment. I'd have a light or deep depending on what my hair needs.
- Mud deep treatment - this one is when I use one of my favorite muds to moisturize my hair. watch out for the post about this treatment right here and how do I use the mud as a cleanser and use it as a deep conditioner too.
4. Hot oil treatment + inversion method + Green house effect method/ baggy method
I do hot oil treatments every other day. look out for my hot oil treatment recipe and ingredients post.
and all about the invention method and gabby method/GHEM.
Don't worry, there are going to be posts about all theses methods, ingredients and DIY's recipes right here on the blog. So don't panic you will soon understand exactly what I'm on about.
