Products I Use...

This product leaves my hair feeling strong (Keratin & Protein).



Starting sealing with this product on Monday (5/23). However, so far this product has left my hair feeling extremely soft and I am 7 weeks post relaxer. 





I’ve been sealing with this product since the start of my journey and I love it! This product makes my hair feel soft and it smells great. I will continue to use this product in my regime.



I use this product as my deep conditioner mixed with JBCO, EVOO & EVCO. After sitting under the dryer for 45min or 1hr my hair is super soft (rinse with cold water). 




I use this product every other week. Although this conditioner is moisturizing and leaves my hair really soft, it is a protein conditioner, so I always follow-up with the Cholesterol mix above.


I use this relaxer every 10 weeks.




This shampoo leaves my hair feeling really soft, love this stuff!



I love coconut oil! I use this product heavily in my hair routine and I also use it to moisturize my skin.









This product has assisted with thickening my hair. I use this product in my deep conditioners only.

I use an olive oil from the dollar store (no pic) any extra virgin olive oil is fine.



Hair Journey (2010-2011)

I have been on a Healthy Hair Journey since August 2010. Therefore, I figured why not start this blog off by sharing with all of you my hair journey from August 2010-May 2011.
