Thank you sooo much for the warm welcome. I am so glad that you ladys love talking about hair as much as I do. My Regime is very simple.
I relax my hair every 7 weeks with Vitale Life and Body Regular.
I have been rinsing out the relaxer and applying Optima Step 2 After Relaxer Normalizer before the shampoo. I've been using it because it was left over and I didn't want to waste it. I just finished the last of it and I don't know if I'm going to buy it again. I'll see if my hair misses it.
I use Motions CPR conditioner,
and Motions Foaming Wrap Lotion--(not bad but looking for something better)---then I roller set. When my hair is dry I rub a nickel sized drop of IC Hair Polisher in my hands and get it all through my hair good. Using a cushioned "wig" brush I wrap my hair, then place a mesh wrap strip with the velcro closure around the wrap and sit under the dryer for 5-10 more min. That's it.
I don't trim unless I see split ends and I haven't seen any since I cut my hair 6 mos. ago. I do have highlights that I put in myself with foil and creme bleach using 10 volume peroxide, only at the crown; the rest of my hair just got light from the relaxer I guess.
Oh, for my weekly shampoo I use Salerm Shampoo with Protein. I want to become aggressive with my hair length goals. I'm going to begin by using vitamin supplements and drinking more water. Wish me luck.
Peace and Love, Sunshine
