Hello Doves,
It's been long. Please forgive me. My life has gotten busier and this is affecting my blog. But anyways, I will try and post twice a month.
Now to my hair. I am currently 22 weeks and 5 days post relaxer. My last relaxer was on May 9th 2015.
I left my hair alone for about four weeks and then started protective styling(PS). My first protective style was twists. I believe I kept them for about 4 weeks. I took them down and did a protein treatment and routine washing and deep conditioning. While in the my twists, I used Dark and Lovely Hair Refresher on my hair, oiled and massaged my scalp and edges with Jamaican Black Castor Oil mixed with essential oils. I also took Good N Natural Skin, Hair and Nails Vitamins. Sorry, I have no pics of the twists.

My second protective style was jumbo braids.

I used the same procedure to maintain these style as well. Moisturising with the hair refresher, oiling scalp etc. I also washed my braids whenever I felt there was a build up. This style lasted for three weeks.

I gave my hair a one week break after I uninstalled the braids and got another protective style. My intention was actually to relax my hair in September just in time for my wedding anniversary but I was so busy that I had no choice than to do another PS.

And I have been rocking my Afro Kinky Twists since August 25. Sorry, I did not take initial photos and currently, the braids are sevens old. I want to push it till the end of the month. I started this relaxer stretch by accident but it's been good so far. For this 'new' protective style I am using Wild Growth Oil on my scalp and edges. I started taking Nature's Bounty Hair Nails and Skin Vitamins too. 3 capsules a day. But I had to stop for two reasons. a) I was getting headaches even though I took 2.5 litres of water a day. b) I wanted to see if the Wild Growth Hair Oil alone would work. I would go back to it starting November. But will start a pill a day and then increase the dosage as time goes on. Below are pics of how my hair looks currently at 7 weeks of braids installation.


For this PS, I am using Dark and Lovely Hair Refresher and Amla Legend Billion Potion and Wild Growth Hair Oil.
I hardly do any fanciful hairstyles with the braids. It's either loose or held up in a pony especially when I am busy. I have also washed it twice. So that's it. Waiting to hear about your hair and progress. Leave your comments below.

And as usual,
