Chapter 6: Wash Day Hair Regimen, Part 2

This is the typical process I follow on the days I wash my hair including hot oil pretreatment, rollerset and silk wrap. This particular video was filmed on the wash right after a fresh relaxer, so I have included an additional protein reconstructor treatment. Products used: Avocado Oil (oilsbynature.com), Phyto Organics Theratin Shampoo, Phyto Organics Humectin Conditioner (JC Penny salons), Nexxus Emergencee Intensive Protein Reconstructor (Drug stores), Neutrogena Triple Moisture Silk Touch Leave-in Cream (Drug stores), Nexxus Heat Protexx (Drug Stores).

As an alternative to sitting under the dryer (for those who don't have one) can I use a hot towel over the saran wrap for the same results?

[JustThisGirl1]

@ShamaraLofton That would be a good alternative, though probably not as effective to be honest. You could also try circulating the heat from a blow dryer over top of the saran wrap for about 10 min. Again, probably not as effective as a hooded dryer but it would be a good way to improvise!

@77deerose you're welcome :)

Love your routine and hair. So do i use protein before and after a relaxer, or just after?

[JustThisGirl1]

@77deerose I use a light protein before a relaxer (like a protein conditioner) and then a heavier protein after a relaxer (protein treatment, like nexxus emergencee) in order to build the strength back up.
