I've been keeping my hair crookedly finger parted down the middle and in two braids for the past 1.5 weeks since my relaxer. I just clip them up most of the time to keep them off of my shoulders.
Been using my DIY lemon and peppermint EO ayurveda mix to cleanse every 2-3 days and then slathering a conditioning ayurveda gloss that I seal in with a ceramide oil mix of safflower, grapeseed oil, EVOO, sweet orange EO and lavendar EO. Then I braid it up and clip them up once they dry. I leave it that way until the next time I cleanse, just wrapping with a satin scarf at night. Trying to KISS. Still pulling my last layer down slightly past WL even though I trimmed , a lot I think
, on 4/16.
I've let my hair stay in clumps instead of combing it out. I primarily finger detangle but I usually also comb out my clumps after a relaxer. I didn't do that this time. The only time I plan to use a comb to detangle will be whenever I flat iron, which is about 1-3 times a year. I'm still debating whether or not I want to do a full, sleek flat iron anymore. I don't like how flat my hair looks but it's the only way to see my true length.
