Last week, I discussed the last bits of roughness from using henna the other week. There are a few methods to pre-poo hair and this week I used two: oil only and oil and conditioner mixed together. Why two pre-poos? Adding two pre-poos gave my hair what it needed to get back to normal.
I can normally reverse the dryness with one or two wash days but this time I needed a third. Yes, the third time a charm and my hair is back to feeling soft and luscious. I did not add as many oils to my henna mix this time and I believe that caused the extra dryness.
I am currently at 14 weeks post and the shampoo process is a little different now because of the massive amounts of curlies hanging out at my roots. My method of minimizing breakage and tangles is completing my entire wash-day process in plaits. Yes, just call me Celie if you like because that’s how I roll.
Let’s chat about my wash-day process.
, did a light blow-dry, and rolled my hair using my Remington Hot Rollers.
I don’t have time to let my hair air dry for hours upon hours. It’s been like 3 hours and it’s still wet so how do you get the roots area to dry when it’s in the ponies?

My hair normally dries fast. However, if I’m in a hurry I use an old school bonnet dryer. The wattage is so low that it doesn’t do any damage.
love this!! beautiful results, I always need encouragement on the regiment, grapeseed oil is my go to for years!! I use it as a heat resistance to flat iron my hair.
I know I sound naive… did you rinse in between or did you just add each time. I need to work on my hair so badly. I will have to come back here for more tips.
Thank you for linking up with Creative Style Linkup! Have a blessed weekend!
Your co-host, April
