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!!!

Hair Oils!!! (Castor Oil)

          During my months of research i keep noticing one main thing in everyone's regiment OILS!!!. It was interesting to me and they were using so many diff ones, avocado, tee tree, castor, coconut, and more. The product we use all have these oils in them but according to research it works better to have to oil in its most natural form and apply to the hair. these oils can be used for hot oil treatment, deep conditioning, washing, pre-poo (pre-shampoo)  and co-wash (conditioner wash). all the oils do something differently but in the most interesting way.

this first one i will talk about is CASTOR OIL!!

Most ppl say all castor oil are the same but i beg to differ. I have been using JBCO (Jamaican Black Castor Oil) for some time now and i love it even tho it cost 8 dollars i make it last and it works. this is a video showing the wonders it did for me  Click here! my hair on the side completely fell out last year and wild growth oil and castor oil brought it back.. 

heres some info from Hairoils.net about castor oil:


Castor Oil for hair has been an age old remedy for many hair issues, however everyone seems to think that any old castor oil will do, regular castor oil may have some benefits but it is recommended to get a quality kind of Castor oil for hair.
When discussing castor oil for hair and it benefits it is first important to know exactly what castor oil is.  This oil is extracted from the seed of a castor plant.  This oil contains many ingredients that are not only great for hair but other issues as well.  Some of the ingredients in castor oil for hair are vitamin E and minerals; castor oil also contains some anti-viral and anti-fungal properties.   One of the best things about using castor oil for hair is that is has anti-inflammatory properties that assist the scalp and hair
One of the biggest benefits is using castor oil for hair growth.  Castor oil stimulates the scalp helping improve blood circulation that leads to healthier looking hair and growth.  Good circulation is vital to hair growth, by having good circulation to your scalp you roots and hair follicles will be properly nourished.



JBCO.com:

Over the years, Jamaicans have been using castor oil as their home grown remedy for medicinal purposes, as well as skin care, hair care and everyday aches and pains. It is now being used by many African Americans to moisturize, thicken, strengthen and increase their hair growth. Today, Jamaican Black castor Oil has crossed over into other ethnic groups, and is now being used widely for some of the same purposes as well as new found uses, including eyelash and eyebrow hair growth and as a massage oil. This is a versatile oil that carries many varied uses.

althought its called JBCO, people seems to not acknowledge the fact that Haiti also have castor oil which is the same as the Jamaican one and use for everything including hair. its call L'huil Maskreti

Hope you enjoyed and Learned something:)

4 month Post relaxer!!!!

Hello, I know its been a while.

i had decided to put senegalese twist in my hair because of all the new growth i was getting due to my JBCO (yay). my senegalse twist which i did my self are down to my lower bak :). I took them out on Saturday night because it about that time. it really helped me strech my relaxer because idk how i would have been able to do it. I AM 4 MONTHS POST RELAXER!!!!. My hair is finally back to normal after so much treatment and manipulation.
This is what i came up with after my research...
-them out and detangle,
-do a prepoo with conditioner, avocado oil and olive oil. leave it in for 1hr and do my wash with V05
-do either a deep conditioner with oils added or an oil treatment. and leave it over night.
it was a whole lot more but this is what i actually did. It kinda work for me but i need better.

This is what actually happened

i took my braids out. I detangles with a water spray bottle and it worked. then i mixed my pre-poo treatment: olive oil mezani conditioner, and JBCO, i mix it and warm it up and apply to my hair and left it in for about an hour.

rince in out and shampoo my hair with treseme clarifying 3x i towel dried my hair and mix my deep conditioner; treseme conditionner, mezani moisture, olive oil, avocado oil, and JBCO i warmed it up and apply to my towel dried hair and this is where it got real for me.....
My whole head was knotted, i let it sit for an hour and rinsed it out but it had already done damage so i had to sit there and detangle and watch my hair come out my scalp.
i apple coconut oil and JBCO.

Right now
my hair is nice and moisturized i went and got cream of nature moisturizer with argan oil, i had a bread out every two night i moisture and seal:)

hope this can help you.
One only learn by doing! so Do!
