Hair Regimen (Part 1)
My hair Regimen by request of ameilialaurn
PREPOOING optional:
if you decide to prepoo which is always great especially if u have dry hair. simply mix a raw egg, some mayonaise and either a botanical oil, or a household oil like caster or something in a bowl (and if you like u could had a cholesterol) and apply it to ur hair and leave it on for about 5 to 10 min under a dryer.
SHAMPOOING:
begin ur process start with ur favorite shampoo. even if its just something that makes ur hair smell good is fine. but i recommend that u eventually find a moisturizing one to help hydrate ur hair. by doing this u help moisturize ur hair from the beginning so u have less need for heavy oils later on.
DEEP CONDITIONING:
after shampooing i want you to put in a homemade conditioner which if u’ve seen my “making my conditioner” video u’ll know that you can simply go through ur product stash and find a moisturizing, deep conditioning (or cholesterol), and reconstructing conditioner. put on ur hair and leave on with a shower cap for a minimum of 5 minutes. (i normally do this in the shower and bathe while letting my conditioner set in, if you have a heating cap that’s great but if not the heat from the shower should do the trick)
LEAVE-IN TREATMENT:
once ur done with ur wash and condition, do not dry ur hair but put in ur favorite leave-ins whatever they may be. (i like to have one for my full head as well as one specifically for my ends but if you dont have one for ur ends, a simple oil NOT GREASE BUT OIL (preferably botanical oil) is fine – make sure to add the oil to ur scalp as well)
then add biosilk silk therapy (generic version available at sally’s) or ur own personal glossing polish that u prefer
DRYING PROCESS:
after that u add a foaming wrap lotion to ur hair and comb as u saw in the ateya video and go sit under a dryer. (my method does not take nearly as long as ateya because i sit under my dryer for about a max of 15min. using a softbonnet dryer taht covers my entire head down to my shoulders. its called ion professional ionic soft bonnet dryer. also i believe that the wrap lotion i use mite have something to do with it because often my hair half way dry before i even get the bonnet on good.)
from there, i’ll section my into fours and blow dry my hair by sections (this also cuts down on time and arm strain, especially if ur hair is not relaxed…in fact, if ur hair is not relaxed, skip the bonnet all together it’ll only diffuse ur curls and make ur hair harder to comb out)

actually most black hair care takes a lot more than others &most of the videos i’ve seen do things similar to what i do but this wasn’t really a recommendation 4 every1 but a video i made for a subscriber.
but if you want to do something similar u mite want to use:
- 1 moisturizing shampoo
- 1 reconstructing conditioner
- 1 leavin of choice
- & a glossing serum
Its the same thing that i did only i added a leavin special for split ends & scalp. but the choices above should give similar results.
