My Relaxer Update @ 15 weeks post
Thursday, April 24, 2014
From my previous post
I mentioned that I did get a relaxer the Wednesday after my protective
style take down. I wanted to wait till the weekend to relax the hair but
due to the Easter festivities i had no choice than to do it earlier.
I
went to my trusted hairdresser to get my relaxer done. As soon as I got
to the salon I realised she was busy braiding another client's hair so
her assistant had to do the touch up for me. I had no choice
because I had travelled quite a distance just to get the hair done.
I coated my relaxed hair plus new growth Roux Porosity Control. I forgot to carry any oil! I started chastising my self for my forgetfulness. I really wanted to top it up with some oil.
I sat down in the chair and the process began.
I sat down in the chair and the process began.
My hair was relaxed using the Creme of Nature Argan Oil Relaxer(No Lye, Regular). The application and smoothing process took 15 mins. I kept insisting that I did not want my hair over processed.
After the relaxer was rinsed out, I did a mid-step protein treatment using Aphogee Two Minutes Reconstructor. Had it in my hair for 5 minutes.
Rinsed out and proceeded to neutralise the hair with Creme of Nature Neutralising Shampoo that came with the relaxer kit.
Neutralised three time then shampooed again with ORS HAIRepair Invigorating Shampoo.
Deep conditioned under the hooded for 20 mins with a mixture of Creme of Nature Argan Oil Intense Moisture Treatment, ORS Replenishing Conditioner , grapeseed oil and essential oils. I had to do this because the Creme of Nature conditioner was not enough.
After the conditioner was rinsed out and my hair patted dry, it was
time for trimming. The left side of my hair was longer than the right
side and I wanted it even hence the trim. I like this particular salon
because when you say you need a trim they do just THAT! TRIM≠CUT!
Applied Keracare Leave-In to my whole hair and Aphogee Keratin and Green Tea Restructurizer to my ends.
Did a roller set using the Keracare Foam Wrap Set Lotion.
Applied T444Z to my scalp and Elyons Hair Food to my hair and finished it off with Organix Ever Straight Brazilian Keratin Oil for sheen. I really need to step up my game to enable me reach my APL goal length for the year.
