Daily Regimen
Every morning in the shower.. I co-wash with Terax Crema Ultra Moisturizing Daily Conditioner. I let the conditioner sit on my head during the whole shower. The steam helps add moisture to the hair, promotes hair strength and elasticity, and enhances natural curl pattern.
After the shower, I pat my head down with a towel just a tad. I then, take my spray bottle that is mixed with water and coconut oil (3 parts water, 1 part oil) and spritz lightly all over my head. Coconut oil is very light weight and is awesome to seal with.
That is pretty much it! If I want to define my curls, I add a dime sized amount of Eco Style Gel with Olive Oil. This activates the curls, especially on damp hair.

Once I'm done with the shower, I rinse about 90% of the conditioner off my head, and keep the remainding 10% as a leave in conditioner.

THE BIG CHOP !
I would describe myself as a natural girl who wears weave, extensions , wigs, whatever. For most of my life, I have hid behind my Indian imported virgin hair. $600 for hair? Nothing!! It lasts me at least a good two years. It's a good investment, I say.
One day, I looked in the mirror and asked myself, what am I doing? Why hasn't my hair grown much? Thats when I decided, I had to do the big chop! And not just any big chop... A FADE!
But I neglected my real hair for so long. The hair I was naturally born with. You see, under "my" luscious virgin locks, my natural kinky hair was beneath. I wasn't really giving it the TLC it deserved.

| My face says it all! OMFG! |

| OMG I did it! |
I wanted to go as low as possible to strip away any perm/relaxer that was lingering . I was inspired by the actress Lupita Nyong'o :)
I'm very excited to start this natural hair care journey! I hope you stay with me for the ride to watch my hair grow from Fade 2 Fro!
