I decided to combine my last two wash days in one post
since they were quick ones. Last week’s wash day was a homemade deep
conditioner with avocado and honey my hair loved this mix it must have been
something to do with the honey. After deep conditioning I shampooed using black
silk shampoo after rinsing I t-shirt dried and then air dried moisturized,
sealed and did six jumbo braids in readiness for a braid out the next day.
This weeks’ wash day was very simple and I was not in
the mood to go through a detangling session because I was out of conditioner; all
conditioners how crazy is that everything just decided to be an empty before I was
able to go out and replace them but the hair needed to be washed. My scalp was
itching so I went ahead and washed my hair in the 6 braids that I usually do
for my braid outs so that it wouldn’t be a nightmare considering I was rinse
out conditionerless. Since it was quite late at night when I washed I simply
t-shirt dried till damp and then let it air dry still in braids before I went
to bed. I didn’t do anything else to the hair that night. The next morning it
was nice and dry so I went ahead to work on unraveling and detangling each of
the braided sections individually applied my leave in mix, oiled my scalp and
sealed with coconut oil and then rebraided since I wasn’t going anywhere for a
few more hours.
I would love to try your homemade avocado and honey deep conditioner! Is the recipe on your blog?
ReplyDeleteThanks for stopping by Jacqueline and welcome to my blog:) I don't think I have this particular recipe on my blog; I mashed an overripe medium sized avocado and added about 2 heaped tablespoons of pure honey you can add an oil of your choice if you wish as well. I mixed the two ingredients by hand until well combined and with no lumps but you can blend instead. Be warned though that the avocado will leave fibres in your hair on rinsing but these can be easily blown away by a blow dryer set on cool. I used to strain my mixtures after blending so that I loose the fibre but I still ended up with some in my hair so I gave up on straining. Please check out my homemade deep conditioners page at the top for more recipes. All measurements depend on the length of your hair so its trial and error until you get measurements that work for you.
DeleteNo conditioner! Oh no! I'd freak out! LOL! I'm still working on trying to get rid of conditioner. I've got products that I've forgotten about because I decided to try something new. Sounded like an easy wash day. I'd love to see your braid out results! :)
ReplyDeleteGirl I had a mini panic attack! Lol it was not funny at all but I tried to make the best of the situation. I have bottles of shampoo to last me another 6 months but no conditioner lol! Lesson learnt always replace before you completely run out. It was an easy wash day having my hair in the 6 braids really helped. I will remember to take fresh braid out photos next time:)
