Hello washday...





Quick length check after my coconut pre-poo, detangling, washing and now conditioning with some protein ps. back to the heatcap and its like a moisture booster.

I think I am around 11 months (since I stopped cutting my hair), but I havent been keeping track. It feels like I cut my hair only yesterday and look at where it is now. This baby just loves to be left alone. I wash my hair every 3/4 weeks and just keep it in a bun/puff and lightly spray with water and some oil every morning if it is not in a protective style. But I do this honestly because timeeee y'all, but... it seems to be paying off well. I can't wait for the coming year, as my hair is a lot thicker I've noticed. I definitely took on my mums fast hair growth genes, I just need her thickness too!

But yeah... Hi! I'm still on this amazing, wonderful journey of healthy hair growth. 
Health over length. Simplicity and Minimalism.

Hair Update: New Growth!

Protective Style is Key

I recently uploaded a video on protective styles and in particular focus on my favourite option: kinky twists/mini twists. I had kinky twists in for four weeks and I took them down yesterday (07/feb-05/march). Let me just say... the new growth and thickness took me by surprise! My hair feels so much thicker, and LONGER. It's like it grew like weed in the last month. And, I gave it a trim before I twisted it.

Protective style is so key! Don't take the fact for granted. And I also believe that my regimen (hot oil treatment (JBCO + oils) and avocado deep conditioning) had a lot to do with the wonderful state of my hair. My hair feels amazing. I am still surprised by how much it grew! So this protective styling/avocado thing is a thing! This year will be all about that, more avocado and more protecting, less wash and go's.

Length check?



1 year and two months of growth. I unravelled a braid and twisted it up. This is how I prepare my hair for the wig.

Length check: 07/13

My hair grew pretty quick! The average all around is 5 inches in 7 months. The average in a year is 6 inches! So I am pretty pleased!
