Water Challenge!!!!!!!! Thirsty much??

A few days ago i decide im gonna Challenge my self to drink water. Yes it sound silly, everybody drinks water right??? Wrong!!! Ask yourself these questions:
How much water do i drink?
How often do i drink it?
Am i consistent?
Is is everyday, one in a blue?
Is is only when I eat?

By the answer to your question you can tell if you need to do a water challenge.. why you ask??
Because Water is good for you

The functions of water in human body are vital. The water:

• Transports nutrients and oxygen into cells
• Moisturizes the air in lungs
• Helps with metabolism
• Protects our vital organ
• Helps our organs to absorb nutrients better
• Regulates body temperature
• Detoxifies
• Protects and moisturizes our joints

Every cell in your body needs water from head to toe. That is why it is so important to drink enough fluid. Take for example, brain consists of 90% of water, if you do not supply enough water to your body, your brain cannot function well, and you will get headache or migraine. Hence, next time, if you feel fatigue and headache, it may be the sign of dehydration

Especially if you doing a Hair journey like me, You need water in your life

This is my challenge:

WEEK 1- DRINK AT LEAST 2 BOTTLES OF WATER A DAY

WEEK 2- 2 1/2 BOTTLES OR 3

WEEK 3- 3 BOTTLES

WEEK 4- 4 BOTTLES= 8OZ

BY REQUIREMENT ITS BEST TO DRINK AT LEAST 8OZ OF WATER PER DAY. I have 16.9fl oz bottles so 4 bottles

HOPE THIS WAS VERY INFORMATIVE AND MOTIVATED YOU

GOOD LUCK TO ME AND YOU!!!

Hair Question....Answer

This is a nice conversation/ hair update with me and my Bff. I love when ppl ask question because it urges me to do more research, help them and see also what else i need to add to my regimen. Alright here we go...


What hair products do u use again? And where can I find it?


 - Well i use numerous products for now. I have a previous post about my hair regimen down below {wink wink). Im still on the search for a moisturizing shampoo with no sulfate and no mineral oil, until them im using treseme, it does have sulfate but it does not strip my hair of moisture. For conditioner i rotate the treseme for hair breakage and the VO5 moisture milk which i use for cowashing. And i always add EVOO or coconut oil to my conditioners for extra moisture.
Sulfate- strips your hair of all moisture and anything you previously added to it
Mineral Oil- Block any moisture from nourishing the hair and scalp. its pointless to have a moisturizer with mineral   oil. yuck!


I was watching one of ur vids with te castors oil and stuff*the one with the castor oil and what is evoo?


EVOO- extra virgin olive oil
Coconut oil- open your pores nourishes the scalp. good for hair growth.


Oh ok ... Ur hair looked mad healthy lol since the wedding (July) it grew bak a lot !!! But I really like the oil treatment u were doing shampoo wise I'm still using the biotin shampoo from GNC it's really good..


After my braids my hair got weak again but its back to normal, I condition once a week now. Biotin is good for the hair, im gonna look into that.

I haven't permed it since the wedding (July)!!! But I need to start treatin it Bc it's growing but it's mad dry o I kno I need some kind of moisture


Dryness=Breakage.
you need oil treatments, deep conditioner. and moisturizing and sealing your hair every night, but i only do it every other night if i have a weave in i oil my scalp with Castor oil or Wild growth oil.

U perm ur own hair or u get it done


I do everything my self except for trim.


Oh never mind I messed myself up tryna perm I think that's the only thing that I won't be doing anymore! Do u wrap/set urself too if so how? 


I stretch my perms last time was 4 month, i had braids in so my hair got tangled. now im going for 3 minimum i don't wanna risk it. i don't know how to roller set so i used to blow dry, flat iron and wrap but since my hair journey i haven't used any heat on my hair so i wet wrap. first time i did it it came out very straight and shiny.


-I have a couple links on my blog about building a regimen, whatever i can do do help let me know.


-my first step into all this was watching YouTube videos so good luck

HAir Regiment Finally!!!

MiiZd33 Hair Regiment

Please be Advise, this regiment works for me. your regiment depends on your hair texture and all that applies. Every one hair is different and after all trials and error i found something for me (i think)

8/29/2011

That is the date of when i started my hair journey. After watching 101 videos on you tube of people growing their own hair down to their bra strap. After my hair was broken off and extremely damage something had to be done. these videos motivated me and on that day i vow to take care of my hair seriously and try my best to keep track of it all. Since the end of august i only had a perm twice and its been 5 months (yay) January 29th mark 6 months of my hair journey. i really have not been consistent with length check picture but i will do one soon. 

Here's my hair Regiment (so far)

Mondays:

Conditioner wash (co-wash) with moisture plus Vo5 conditioner + olive Oil + coconut Oil. I leave it in with a shower cap for 45 to 1 hr and then rinse off

I then braid my hair in section for a wavy look for the next day. 

Thursdays or Fridays

I prepoo( pre shampoo) my hair with coconut oil, leave it in for an hour and rinse.

shampoo with treseme for breakage twice

Deep Condition with tresemme for breakage + Olive Oil + Castor Oil (JBCO) leave in with shower cap for 1hr then rinse

Air dry

Moisturize with cream of nature moisturizer

 and Seal with castor oil

Then apply JBCO to scalp in sections

i then wrap my hair while wet for a straight look.

because i have oil in my cowash i don't really need to moisturize my hair stay shiny and healthy until my next wash. 

i try to oil my scalp daily and i always add oils to my conditioner's, 

any question please feel free!!! Good luck on your hair journey!!!
