This is a friends and family-based community that is concerned with healthy hair! We ask a million questions about our hair, not really knowing where to start or what direction to go in. This will be a step-by-step 4-month challenge with all the information and knowledge you will need and more. I encourage everyone to post comments, vids, pictures, whatever you would like. We can love our hair! We can DO this natural thing!

So I think I have a plan!
Since receiving my oils I've been able to try them all out to see what works best for my hair and here's how I plan to use them. Because of my hair texture (4b) I have to be careful not to use to much product... it takes very little to cause product build up on my hair. So if you're a 4b lady this should work for you as well... honestly it should work for any texture you just have to adjust the amount being used for your hair. Typically the the kinkier your hair is, the more moisture it requires.
Sunday: Shampoo Day...followed by my conditioner of choice (letting sit for at least 30mins then rinse). Two Strand Twist using Water and Castor oil. The Castor oil kinda stretches my hair and makes it really soft and moisturized.
If you can see it! I use about this much Castor oil on each of the 4 sections I put my hair in to twist it.
Monday: Water/Seal with Argan Oil or Jojoba Oil
Tuesday: Water/Seal with Argan Oil or Jojoba Oil
Wednesday: Take twist down...I wish my hair would last in a style more than 3 days but it doesn't, it starts looking all raggedy and I work with all white people so that ain't gone work. Lol. After taking them down, I'll Water/Seal with Grapeseed oil. The Grapeseed oil isn't as heavy as the Castor oil yet more of a moisturizer than the Argan and Jojoba (for my hair).
Thursday: Water/Seal with Argan Oil or Jojoba Oil
Friday: Water/Seal with Argan Oil or Jojoba Oil
Saturday: I'll most likely do something fun like a wash and go! Sealing with Shea Butter or any other butter of choice. And that night I'll do my Pre-Poo (my hair loves Pre-Pooing). For my Pre-Poo, I do a mix of Honey, VO5 Moisture Milk Conditioner, and Argan Oil.
This is my plan and I'ma try and stick to it...Feel free to use it too!
