Wash day was interesting. I didn't feel like using the curlformers and decided that once my hair was dry, I'd quickly put it in an up do. I tried three different ones and didn't like any. I finally had to give up so I could go to bed. Here's the boring look.
Here's the rundown.
1. I washed with Design anti-dandruff shampoo and the moisture retention shampoo. My scalp was so dirty and I was glad these two products performed well for me.
2. I used Jessecurl deep conditioner. I tried to detangle as I put it on, but the comb was not going through. So I smooshed it on each section (I had six braids), put on a plastic cap and sat under the dryer for 30 minutes.
3. I tried part of Shelli from Hairscapades method and put some Suave conditioner on top of it once I was out of the dryer.
4. I hopped in the shower rinsed it all out and detangled. The detangling process wasn't bad at all.
5. I used my new leave-in by Original Moxie. I know this is just the first use, but I'm tossing Knot Today to the side. The Original Moxie feels more like a lotion. I immediately saw and felt its effects as soon as I put it on my hair. It left my hair shiny and I didn't have to put a bunch of other crap in there. With the Knot Today, I never knew when it was working and thought maybe I wasn't letting the hair dry enough before I put in on.
6. I should have just dried my hair in the braids, but I tried to wrap the sections on Flexis. That was stupid, that just prolonged the drying process.
7. Once dry, I smoothed with my new paddle brush. I'm not sure I should have used it. I think I may have ripped some thangs.
8. I embarked on my attempt to style my hair. My magic was not working, but I finally got it done.
***I didn't use any oils to seal. I decided to just put some Dax grease on it. My hair feels incredibly soft and it's kind of shiny. I just hate I couldn't execute the style I envisioned.
I'm hoping this boring style lasts two days, then I'll moisturize and re-style. I get my hair done at the shop this Saturday. I hope I get a different wash boy. I don't want to have to get ugly in there.
