I deep condition once a week. Yesterday was my deep conditioner day and I made kind of a pointless video about it. My hair didn't turn out as good as it usually does. I changed up my recipe and I used barely any of the amla/brahmi/henna powders. I also added coconut milk, honey, buttermilk powder, and coffee. It was runny so I added some whole foods grapefruit conditioner. My hair is ok but it doesn't feel as soft and strong as it does when I use the thick hair mask with more of the herbs.
I braided my hair today in small braids. My goal is to keep it up for at least two weeks. The braids are serving as my protective style and to deter me from messing with my hair too much. Since it takes more of a time investment to braid and unbraid I think it will be easier for me to keep them compared to with twists. This gallery is from the past month starting in January until today. The last five pictures are of my hair yesterday and today.
None of this hair is styled to look cute obviously. It's just a check point of my progress. I cut a lot of hair off over the past month but my hair today feels healthy and thick.
