2 Months
Good Day Meanies,
It has been 2 months since transitioning to natural hair. My hair is so kinky it's crazy but I'm loving it. Just last week I lost whatever marbles I had left and wanted to go chop it off. Then I thought no maybe I should wait longer. It makes sense to wait simply because during this process I could be learning about my natural texture growing in. It is beyond frustration trying to deal with both textures. Since I started transitioning I washed my hair once a week. Every time I washed my hair, I washed, conditioned, deep treatment and moisturized. I would braid my hair wet just so it can dry because I hate using a blow dryer. When I wake up in the morning I do cornrows.
During this whole process it has been trial and error with the products I have been using. This is what I have: 2 shampoos ( added vitamin E & coconut oil), 2 conditioners ( added vitamin E oil & coconut oil), 2 deep treatments, 2 leave-in conditioners, 2 moisturizing oils, 1 shine glosser, and 1 styling gel. All of these products are paraben, silicone, and sulfate free. I'm sure you're wondering why I have 2 of everything. Well I thought it would make sense to get 2 different types of each product so I can test how they react to my hair. Also it's good to do because some folks hair get used to a product and stops working. So far all of the products have been great.
Every since I started transitioning my hair feels extremely soft. I'm washing my hair differently and trying not to manipulate it a lot. It's been 2 months transitioning and I have no idea how much longer I can go. I would love to transition for at least 6 months. That's the plan but we'll see.
