I'm happy to announce that my hair has done wonderfully this past seven weeks. I'm keeping my regimen exactly the same. Fenugreek, coconut oil, shikakai, amla and Brahmi are the amazing blends that are bringing my hair back in health and ultimately will be length. I'm so happy I went back to what works. My shedding is almost non-existent at almost 8 weeks post. I moisturize, seal and wig it and wash on the weekend then air dry.
Not not steaming my tea. I thought about it but since so much of the steam just ends up in the air, I felt like I would be wasting tea. But I bet a good catnip tea would be nice to steam.
When I figure out how to trap more steam, I may try it I do have some bags of catnip tea.
Steeping marshmallow root for my beloved spritz.. I've decided to add a bit of nettle. This will be my first time using it. I hope it adds and doesn't take away!
Mixed up my henna and coconut milk. Might add in one of the kervada oils or just some grapeseed oil. Will apply it tomorrow and leave it on for most of the day.
So I have to show you ladies the difference in hair health after almost two months of ayurvedic hair care. The first pic is an indication of thinness, recent breakage from dryness and no relaxer.
The second pics are from tonight after 1/2 inch trim and texlaxed relaxer. I'm ayurvedic for life!!!! Yyyyeeesssssss its working!!!
Cleansed with NO vac clarifying spritz twice, cvs with the honey balm. Used the oil free balm as a setting lotion. Under th dryer with my curlformers set.
I didn't like the nettle's addition to my marshmallow spritz... It cancelled the slip (mucilage) I loved so much the first time. My hair didn't feel juicy and moist. I'll have to find another way to incorporate it later. If it ain't broke from here forward, I won't fix it.
Been sick as a dog all week so haven't done too much to my hair. I did tea spritz a couple times and with my wash day yesterday I used the rest of the tea spritz as a final rinse. Going into a 6 week PS this coming week so a new batch of tea spritz will be made in a couple days.
Haven't done a tea rinse since relaxing. I wanted to get used to how my hair is suppose to feel before incorporating the teas back in. I did a tea rinse tonight with fenugreek and peppermint. It soothed my itchy scalp so well. I put HH Pink Grapefruit Conditioner on top and will dc with it.
Forgot to add that I prepoo'd with my Amla/Brahmi/Vatika oil mix.
