Reflection- 6 Months

So I am 6 month post relaxer. I have about 2 inches of new growth. I do not have an breakage or shedding except for when I took out my braids I was rushing and lost alot of hair. I experienced alot of shedding and a little breakage because I was ripping threw my hair like I didn't have an good sence to just "slow down"..."I was running late for Jamie Foxx Concert" Although I lost alot of hair I didn't beat myself up I decided to look at the positive. My hair has grown to just below my ears and my ends are not bad at all and it was fairly easy to straighten and maintain for a week. I figure eventually I will cut the relaxed ends off anyways so I'm not gonna worry about it.

I will take some pics of my new growth this weekend after I wash and condition so stay tooned.

Conditioner


I found a new deep conditioner that has been around for a while but I am using it for the first time which is Queen Helen's Cholesterol. A friend of mines has been trying to get me to use it for quite some time now. So this weekend I seen it at the beauty supply store for $3.29. I thought to myself that if it doesn't work I didn't pay a fortune for it then I wont feel bad about tossing it.

I use it as a deep conditioner with a plastic cap under the dryer for about 30 minutes. I must say that I am very impressed and being that I am 6 months post relaxer my hair was so easy to de-tangle, no breakage, and no tug of war between my relaxed and natural hair. My hair felt strong and moisturized all at the same time. This might be a keeper. I will use this as my weekly deep conditioner and I will give an update in about 3 weeks to make sure that this was not a fluke.
