This Week's Regimen

I have decided to do conditioner washes every couple of days so this week I wanted to clarify. I used Nexxus Aloe Rid Gentle Clarifying Shampoo and shampooed with Ion Dandruff Solutions. I used Aphogee 2 Minute Keratin Reconstructor to keep up my hair's moisture/protein because co-washes really moisturize hair. Then I deep conditioned with Kenra MC under heat for 35 minutes and used Porosity Control for my final rinse.

The result was not good. I had five or six multiple strand knots. These knots caught about thirty strands of hair each. I now know the importance of combing out shed hairs before you wet the hair or washing your hair more so that you can detangle more. Once water hits your head, those shed hairs slide down and knot the heck up. Needless to say, I was pretty horrified. And it was painstaking work to pick each strand from the knot. I still had to cut about ten strands that were glued to the knot. The rest of my hair was very tangled and Kenra did not work at all in the detangling process. But thankfully the product junkie in me had just bought the Yes to Carrots Pampering Hair Mud Conditioner and. . .OMG, it was freakin fabulous! I never knew what people were talking about when they said their hair felt like butter. The comb slid through my new growth so easily. That one is definitely a keeper!
