hair care: I do not relax my hair because it result in damage. I flat iron at most twice a month with a sedu revolution and redken heatglide heat protectant. I take biotin and msm sulfur to help with growth.
night care: I wear a satin bonnet to sleep at night and use a silk/satin pillowcase. I usually put my hair in big braids at night so its wavy and detangled in the morning.
washing: I wash my hair with non sulfate shampoo’s or i cowash my hair. I also precleanse with diluted apple cider vinegar. to prevent breakage or tangles i was my hair in twists. heres a good video tutorial on washing and conditioning.

drying: I pat my hair dry with a tshirt. I airdry my hair. Rubbing your hair with a regular towel can cause breakage.
combs: I usually finger comb my hair first before proceeding with a wide tooth comb. i only detangle when my hair has conditioner(I use garnier fructis triple nutrition) in it. I start from the ends and work my way up.
brushes: I dont brush my hair because can cause uneeded tension or breakage
shampoo: I recommend a sulfate free shampoo unless you use products with silicones. Here are some sulfate free shampoo companies:
Burt’s Bees
Carol’s Daughter
Aubrey Organics: http://www.aubreyorganics.com/
Blended Beauty: http://www.blendedbeauty.com
Kinky Curly: http://www.kinkycurly.com
Trader Joe’s Refresh Shampoo

condition: for cowashing i use a cheap silicone free conditioner such as v05 kiwi and lime or suave naturals(only the naturals are silicone free).For deepconditioning i use giovanni smooth as silk conditioner(sold at most drugstores but you can get a big bottle at marshalls or tj maxx for value). everything .
Moisture is really important. I usually spritz my hair with water mixed a little olive oil. Then I seal in the moisture with whipped shea butter, coconut oil or oyin whipped pudding.
Eating healthy, drinking lots of water, exercising and wearing protective styles such as buns, braids, or twists are a great to retain length and promote healthy hair.
