Transitioning Hair Regiment Part 2

Healthy relaxed hair June 2013

Healthy hair is not about products, it is a combination of products and practices that compliment each other and aid in the growth strengthening and maintenance of your hair. Last week I introduced the range of products I have been using on my hair. This week i"ll look at some of the practices I have adopted.

• Firstly I have started using a wide tooth comb in addition to this I have  been using water on my hair before I apply any product.
• I have also established a time table which stipulates when  I wash and deep condition , for me planning  a specific time  helps me immensely. I use to wash my hair every other week and deep condition when I felt like.Structure is important in any journey.Therefore to ensure that you keep up I encourage stetting up a schedule not only for washing and treating but also protective style , when you'll get them how long it will last etc. I repeat structure is important especially when transitioning if you fail to plan you may end up getting a relaxer like I did in my first attempt. 
• Also know your hair needs everyone hair is different build a regiment around your specific needs.
• Wear styles that do not overly strain edges or require frequent manipulation.
•  Less heat, less is definitely more in this case, less heat more growth more length retention.
• cover hair at night, what every state your hair is in relaxed or natural always wear a head tie or bonnet.
• Be patient , remember its a journey its going to take some time to get there.
• Access periodically . are the products and practices being used getting me to my goal? if not go back to the drawing board.

I wish you all the luck on your hair journey.Also these are just a few tips feel free to do your own research or follow my hair journey board on Pinterest.
