About Me

My photo
My hair isn't growing, I’ve been trying for a years. Some people just have slow growing hair. Hmmm! So now I’m embarking on a journey to grow my hair long. I've done a bit of research over the World Wide Web. My hair Idol is Tendayi from africanhairblog. She’s keeping me motivated and I’m so grateful.

Wash update

Thursday 01/12/2011- Another wash day – and I just thought I’d update you on my hair regimen.



Pre-poo:

Today I used amla oil and castor oil. I concentrated the mix to my scalp using a spray bottle, and then massaged it for a few minutes. I then capped it for overnight.

Shampoo

I used my Vigro® Bio-Shampoo. Vigro® Bio-Shampoo is a pH neutral, triple action shampoo with 9 scalp stimulating and botanical extracts to deep cleanse the hair of dead skin cells, pollutants and sebum (the oily secretion of the sebaceous gland) that can clog your pores and choke healthy hair follicles.
Directions for use:
·         Apply a small amount to wet hair and massage gently into the scalp
·         Rinse thoroughly
·         Re-apply, massaging into a lather
·         Leave in for 2 minutes before rinsing thoroughly
·         Towel dry

Conditioner

I mixed Organic Root Stimulator Replenishing Conditioner with honey and Indian hair grower.    Indian hair grower oil is a great conditioner; it promotes hair growth and strengthens the root of the hair. I used this oil mixture on my edges and mid-length part of my hair, and then I wore a shower cap and let it sit overnight in a satin sleep scarf. The next morning I rinsed it out.  As I rinsed my hair out, I could feel that it was it very soft and well-conditioned.
Tip:   You shouldn’t place conditioner on your scalp at all. Conditioners don’t wash off when you rinse, they are created to go in the depths of your hair and bond with it. So when the conditioner goes on your scalp, it remains there. In time it builds up and starts to flake off which appears like dandruff.
Leave in Conditioner
I then applied my Vigro® Bio-Activator Leave on Cream – a creamy leave on treatment for dry, course hair containing Follicusan™. This also helps to prevent breakage and helps strengthen hair that has been damaged from harsh chemical treatments (such as relaxing, braiding, and perming).
Directions for use:
·         Towel dry hair after washing with Vigro Bio-Shampoo
·         Apply Vigro Bio-Tonic to your scalp using the nozzle
·         Gently massage into your scalp
·         Leave for 10 minutes
·         Do not rinse off
·         Dry and style hair as usual
Moisturize
I will be using natural Organic Root Stimulator Carrot oil and Organic Root Stimulator Incredibly Rich Oil Moisturizing Hair Lotion to moisturise my hair. I will seal with coconut oil.
