My Bally's memberhsip just ended and I was going to a location across from my job. Now I'm moving work locations and want to look into classes closer to home.

So as I said yesterday, my hair is misbehaving. After spinning class, I did the following.

1. Applied castor oil to scalp from forehead to nape then from ear to ear to ensure good coverage.
   
2. Massaged oil in for a few minutes starting at the back then working my way forward in a slow motion then again a little faster.
   
   
3. Applied two handfuls of EVOO to each half of my soaking wet hair.
   
4. Cleansed scalp and hair with shikakai soap in four sections.
   
5. Rinsed each section separately and applied Joico K-Pack Moisture Intense Hydrator (an egg size to each section) and a teaspoon of Manuka honey. Honey was microwaved for a few seconds before I started process so it was beginning to solidify.
   
   
6. Rinsed in warm water then rinsed in cold fenugreek tea (mix is four tea bags to two cups of water).
   
7. Applied about two quarter sizes of KBB's hair cream (coco mango scent ) to each soaking wet section. I applied more to my drier areas (above my ears). NOTE: The cream is hard to emulsify when hands are wet.
   
8. Followed with Afroveda's Totally Twisted Ginger Almond Butter. I put in more than I think my hair needed--about a half handful to four section.
   
9. Braided hair in two Pocohantas braids.
   
10. Covered with satin bonnet when I went to sleep.
    

This morning, my hair was still pretty damp. I undid braids and styled hair to cover part.

ChrsLvsBks wrote:@jcanalena79, glad the update helped. The super-regimen took a while but it was worth it, thanks for the .

Last night, I applied oils to my scalp and hair (anoop--an Indian oil to help with hair fall and shedding & sesame) in bathroom with hot steamy shower on. I then spritzed hair until almost dripping and added VitaminShoppe's daily herbal conditioner. I added nearly a third of the bottle to my hair. It is does not have enough slip for me so I will not repurchase. I hoped in shower and washed it out. Afterward I applied Curl Junkie's butta and Beauticurls leave ins (finished both --have one more bottle of the Beauticurls). I then applied KBB's hair cream. Braided hair in two then went to bed.

This morning, I undid the braids and voila. I like the product combinations. Will continue to use it until I run out of the products. Here are a couple of pictures of today's hair.

Reading comments like this make me . No need to change photos, the ones used are okey dokey by me.

I am going to have to pick up a few key items to mix and match. My clothes are ill fitting and do not show the hard work I have done . Someone on the BBD thread suggested a site. When I visited they gave information as to what to purchase to complement your shape. So I will look for lighter bottoms, darker tops and pencil skirts. I hate shopping so I hope I can find what I want in a couple of stores.
