Winter Is Coming!! - Winterizing your hair for under $6

Image
WINTER IS COMING!! The phrase is so played out right now but the threat is real. It's winter time which means winter weather in much of the US. Which means dry warm air inside to cause the frizzies and dry cold air outside to make you feel miserable. You've probably heard/read all the winter advise before but I thought I'd list out the "poh" girls version for those of us with a little less money in the bank/ more financial obligations than most.

Product Review: Hercules Sagemann Seamless Tooth Comb

Image
The seamless comb. A thing of legend in the healthy hair journey community. I've read a lot about the seemingly wondrous and magical powers of this comb. So (finally) when I came into some extra cash I decided to give it a try. I had a couple of questions about this going in and I'm guessing if you're reading this you do too. So I'll do a bit of Q&A first before my review.

Update: Healthy Hair Journey Progress Report

I've been a bit mia on the interwebs and that's because I got a new Job! and Moved! and have had about 6 hours of sleep/day since August 18th!! But I'm about 80% settled into my new apartment and I'm figuring out the new job so now I have time to talk about my hair!!

Relaxer day: August 1st 2014

Welp. I finally got my relaxer. I think my hair was a little over cooked this time around. My hairdresser said there was so much new growth she couldn't get to everything fast enough.  I'm kindda happy about that (but not really).

I got this product because it was recommended as a good moisturizing only deep conditioner. I needed that after I found out that I'd put too much protein in my hair.

The road to moisture - the pitstop

This is a check in for my moisture quest. It's been a wild ride but I think I'm coming out of it stronger and wiser.  I outlined my plan in a previous post but I'll give you the basics again + the new addition that I think is helping as well. 1. Protein free deep conditioning with aubrey organics honeysuckle rose 2. GHE for extra moisture boost 3. Leave-in moisturiser mix 4. Co-washing (new addition)
