My hair routine has been basically the same for the past 3 years. My hair was growing pretty nicely. It was hitting my mid back😁. This past year I’ve been struggling and hit some set backs 😢😤.
For past couple of years my routine was pretty much
Every 2 weeks
- Oil treatment/prepoo(coconut and castor oil
- Shampoo – only applying shampoo to my scalp
- Condition
- Apply coconut oil and blow dry
- Then braid or twist into 2 braids/flat twist
Every 4 months
- Relax and trim
Every once in awhile I would flatiron
I’m sure pregnancy hormones helped quite a bit.
The past year I have been going into my broker’s office regularly for meetings and working. I always had to have my hair done, meaning putting stress on my hair more than usual and that’s when I started to notice the breakage. I was losing my length and health.
I’m trying to go back to my old ways and maybe even washing my hair every week. One week cowash, next week shampoo and condition. But I probably won’t be applying heat every week.
