I've been feeling guilty as if I have readers waiting on me!

But it's been a whole month! I can't believe it. I have alot to do and my routine hasn't changed that much so I'll just leave an image.

The one at the top is a pic of me from about a week ago and the one below it is from a few days post-BC. I haven't quite managed to capture the growth yet but I can tell that it's a whole lot thicker. There is a difference it's just hard to see it in pictures.


I promised that I would post it and I'm finally getting to it.





Yesterday I did a deep conditioning treatment and my hair enjoyed it. I've decided to do a deep conditioner every week, atleast for the time being. I don't think I've mastered the art of retaining moisture throughout the week so this is really important.

My process was simple because the products were store bought. I mixed the two and added about 2 teaspoons of EVOO. I only used half so I have enough for next week.


I mixed the two because I like the tingle of the Dr. Miracles but I liked the ingredients of the Organic Root Stimulator. I'm not completely sure about the Dr. Miracles just because none of the ingredients are natural and I could probably get the same tingle from peppermint oil. It was tan colored and doesn't really have a memorable smell. The organic root stimulator smelled delicious and was custardy (pastel yellow). I've heard great things about alot of the extracts and other ingredients. My hair came out softer and no worse for the wear.

Overall, once I run out of these two conditioners I probably won't buy them again unless I'm in a pinch and want to mix them with something else. I think the EVOO is what made it work better. I really want to focus on making products at home. In the future look for posts that involve eggs, honey, and other ingredients from your local kitchen.


I can't believe it's only been 4 weeks. Time flies when you're falling in love (with your hair).

I don't have any new products but I get paid this Friday so anticipate a post about WHOLE FOODS. The only product that I can faithfully and honestly endorse is EXTRA VIRGIN OLIVE OIL (EVOO). My hair loves loves LOVES this stuff! It makes it so soft and shiny. And it's not oily which contributes to my HIMHS (hand in my hair syndrome). I mean if I had to only live with this one product I would be fine.

I have a mental wish list of products that I want to try. The top two are avacado oil and bentonite clay. Avacado oil because it has a consistency similar to EVOO and may work as well if not better. And bentonite clay because I've heard that it can be good for skin and can clarify and promote shine for hair.
