If you don't know that I'm doing a no weave challenge well now you know. It's been going okay so far and thankfully I have many ideas for my hair.
Anyways, I wanted to come to you guys really quickly about being in FL. The heat is NO joke. Not only have I been trying to adjust to the heat but my hair is trying to get used to it too. When I tell you that my hair has been dry from the heat it's no joke dry. I can oil it or lightly spray it with a water mixture but by the afternoon my hair is back to square one.
At first it kind of through me for a loop but I think I found something to combat this and keep my tresses in tip top shape!
*drum roll please...
HONEYY!!!
I been doing my research about honey a while back and it kind of clicked. I did a little bit more researching and bought a 32 oz. bottle from my local Walmart for $7.84.
Before I co-washed my hair I I did 2 things to it that involved honey.
2. I had made an oil mixture and had about an ounce and 1/2 left over. The oils were olive, almond and castor oil. I added 2 tsp. of honey; shook up the mixture applied it to my scalp and hair shaft and left it sit for 30 minutes.
Initially I was going to co-wash my hair. I washed it out (as you are to do with a co-wash) and then put some more of the mixture in and left it in and it stayed longer than anticipated (It stayed in for almost 2 complete hours). I used about a little less than 1/4 c. of tressemme moisture rich conditioner, about 2 tsp. of suave almond and shea butter conditioner, 1tbs. of honey, 2 tsp. of olive oil and about a quarter-size squirt of Aussie 3 minute Mir miracle moisture strong. I left this on for over 1 1/2 hours. I will say, the mix was a lot so next time I'll use a little less!
When I tell your my curls were on point, my hair was easy to maneuver, and my hair was sooooooo soft!! I think u found my deep conditioner!!!
Afterwards I followed up with a little more detangling. I twisted my hair put perm rods at the end absolutely love my results. It lasted one day, only because I did too much with my hair (as usual!).
I hope this helps!
Until next time I'll See You Later!!
