I've just finished washing my hair/weave and I'm so upset, my hair felt awful! It turned out so dry and brittle, even my detangling process wasn't good enough to redeem how dry and ashy my hair was.
I even had to skip on airdrying, and blowdry and straighten my leave out hair straight away.That's how bad it was...major flop!
On top of that i was surprised at the mini ball of hair that came out when combing my hair, especially considering the fact that my leave out hair barely sheds! It may not seem like a lot but for the little leave out hair that i have... this is major!
Today i was so careless with my regime... in fact stupid may be the realest way to describe my regime today. Here is why...
1) I did not pre-poo, i decided to shampoo straight away
2) I tried to avoid going in the shower twice so did the tilt your head over the tub method...and even worse...
3) I applied shampoo and scrubbed without applying water to my hair first!
I know some of you are probably gasping, but hey i make mistakes too! I can't believe i was daft enough to believe that my hair would turn out fine doing it that way... but I've learned my lesson for sure.
If you want good hair, you need to be ready to take good care of that hair. Right back to the essence of the blog i guess...
Corny perhaps, but oh so true! I will never skip my pre poo session, nor will i shampoo with my head tilted in the shower, and i most definitely won't be applying shampoo to my hair without wetting it first.

I feel you on the whole getting back into the tub thing...it's sooo looong!
ReplyDeleteOuch! I find that after a weave my hair is so thirsty for moisture that I have to pre-poo it overnight at least to avoid frustration when washing. On the brighter side, it's a relative small ball of hair, thank God it wasn't a whole chunk!
ReplyDeleteIt's ok your allowed a mess-up every now and then. :)
