Are you relaxed, natural, texturized or texlaxed?
I’ve been natural a year now.
What’s your story, how did you get to where you are?
Well, I started noticing my hair was getting thinner and it wouldn’t grow pass my shoulders when I was relaxed. So last year, I got my last perm on Nov. 6, 2011 and I decided not to get another after that. I transitioned for a while, and then I cut off the permed ends of my hair in May 2012. I was left with 1-1/2 inches of natural hair.
What is your regimen at the moment?
Right now, I wash or co wash once a week, and I try to deep condition as well when I don’t forget. I use leave in conditioner*, an oil, and then a moisturizing cream afterwards to seal in moisture.
And your favourite product?
My favorite product right now is coconut oil* or coconut* milk.
What’s your signature style?
I love to wear twist outs right now because my hair is still in the twa stage. It is a bit easier now since it’s grown to 5-6 inches.
What is the best tip you have learned to protect your ends?
The best tip I’ve learned is to wear protective styles. I twist my hair and wear a satin bonnet* at night. Then in the mornings, I apply oil and take them out, or keep them in.
