Ok, so I did absolutely nothing to my hair on Friday and Saturday other than to throw it up in a bun. By yesterday, it was a very dry, tangled mess, but I had a few decent 3b’s representing for the cause to keep it from looking awful. I had a headache, so by Sunday afternoon while doing chores even the hair clips and elastic bands had to come out. I rocked an afro until the last minute.
Around 7pm, I knew I had to start on my hair or it wouldn’t dry in time. I did a pre-poo for about 1 hour with coconut oil and the last little bits of old conditioner (Giovonni and Pantene). I washed my hair with Shea Moisture and deep conditioned with the Shea Moisture conditioning mask.
I was then ready to detangle and twist. (Since it takes about 1.5 – 2 hours to do this, I usually get comfortable and start my Tivo for a movie or something.) I used a mixture of water and shea butter oil to keep my hair wet. Each section was treated to a dime size dollop of KK Knot Today and Grape Seed Oil. Once detangled, I used a small amount of Shea Moisture Curl Enhancing Smoothie and Lottabody with Carrot Oil. I twisted my hair all over with a side part. It took me the better part of 2.5 hours.
I was so tired when I was done that I did not and could not do anything else. I barely got everything off my bed before I was closing my eyes to go to sleep.
Anyhoo, because I took the time to twist really small last night, my hair was completely dry this morning. I untwisted and voila!
