3in6 Challenge: Week 10-11

Week 10: Apr 3- Apr 9
Let me first start by saying 2 kids under 2 is NO joke! I applaud all the mommies who make it look so easy, I myself am still trying to adapt to a newborn in the house. even though he sleeps good, I haven't gotten him and his sister n on the same sleep schedule so it's a juggling act for now! As tiring as I am I absolutely LOVE being a mom, I have never been happier than I am right now...I feel so blessed! Ok enough!

I give myself 30 minutes each nights after the kids are sleep to do my hair and face routine! Some nights I can squeeze some nail pampering in there LoL. This week I already made up my mind to take out the twists, they could probably go another week but I honestly miss my loose hair. The night before I took them down i rinsed my hair with water only, applied some Shea Moisture Curl smoothie and grape seed oil to seal the ends...I then let them air dry. The following morning I unraveled the twists and wore a twist out that day. Day 2 I put it up in a puff my puff has grown quite a bit, when I first did the big chop I wore a puff almost exclusively! I can def see a difference now...but I actually like it better shorter *kanye shrug* I also made a batch of flaxseed gel which I used for my puff, it made my curls super defined and had great hold without flakes or crunchiness.


Week 11: Apr 10- April 16
Washed my hair on Sunday, I used Shea Moisture Retention Shampoo (upcoming reviews). I sectioned my hair into 4 and washed only my scalp with the shampoo. I followed with vo5 condition to finger detangled and let it air dry with conditioner still in. When it was about 80% dry I added Shea Moisture Masque and sprayed any dry areas with a homemade spritz [ aloe Vera juice, tea tree oil and water].
I braided my hair into 12 sections and tied with a satin scarf.
Mid week I wore a bun using a sock bun for volume...I kept it for 3 days! I must say again the flaxseed gel is AWeSoMe...it hold like nobody's business but doesn't flake AT ALL, s/o to naptural85 on YouTube for the recipe.

Until next time.....
