@YvetteWithJoy What was the time period that you waited out of your normal routine? Are you a twice a week, once a week, once every 2 week washer? Daily moisturizer?
The positive take a way is now at least you know what not to do and learned another lesson about your hair. We all go through the learning cycle and experience the growing pains.
I've done twice a week washing (well one of those was a co-cleanse).
My lesson was it left my hair over moisturized and needing protein more often. Ditched!
I've done once a week washing followed by roller sets. It was cool but as my hair got longer, roller setting became a pain and the weekly washing was just not necessary. My deep conditioner keeps my hair feeling good for a minimum of 2 weeks just on its own. So every week washing is just kinda extra.
I've also tested every 2 and 3 weeks. 3 weeks leaves me on the dry side so I settled on 2 weeks.
So now I wash/Deep condition every 2 weeks. Moisturize the length fully on the off week...the ends get moisture love every 2-3 days. But that routine only came about through testing my hair's limits while keeping my hair goals in mind which are:
Have a simple routine with minimal products.
on your pregnancy! You and lulu are going to have babies together again. More e-cousins!
BUT! I'm on the Dean's List right now and that's all that matters.
I feel like I want to get back on a hair vitamin though. And @lulu97 ....lemme find out you preggo! Girl! Congratulations! Say hello to your child's (might be) future school teacher and/or librarian! 
My hair was so angry. I ended up having to do Aphogee 2 min, then porosity control, then conditioner. My hair was still *VERY* upset. I let my hair dry then applied leave-in, shea butter, and castor oil. 
. I'm up in arms about the shampoo right now - it is one of my staples from the 10 product list (Hask Charcol). I don't want to use it diluted if it treats my tresses so horribly at full strength. I may go back to herbal/acv cleansing washes. 
Welcome to the Challenge!
in moderation, of course
