3in6 Challenge: Week 7,8,9

Week 7: Mar 13- Mar 19
So this week I didn't have a wash day on Sun since I did my twists late last week. I knew I would be in the hospital this week for a scheduled c-section so I wanted to keep to hair my hair simple yet versatile. I opted for mini twists as a low maintenance/ protective style.


Week 8: Mar 20-Mar 26
Have not washed my twists yet so again fairly simple routine this week as well. I dampened my hair with water at least every 2 days , I follow up with Cantu Leave in and Shea/coco oil. I kept my twists braided or pinned into an updo, I also wore a silk scarf while home.


Week 9: Mar 27- Apr 2
Oh how I miss water on my scalp. LoL! I absolutely needed to wash my scalp or else. I discovered that I cannot go more than 2 weeks w/o water running thru my hair, massaging my scalp and moisturizing my situation. O_o I used Garnier conditioner to clean my hair and scalp and followed up with Giovanni SAS as an in shower deep treatment using the steam from the shower. I always rinse with cool water so that's a given....I let the excess water drip out and applied Shea/ coco to the ends. After they air dried -of course- I had major shrinkage and the twists were a bit fluffy so I decided to re twist with a bit of my Shea mix....I had NO intention on doing them all, only wanted to neaten the perimeter but 1 thing led to another and next thing I know i' m doing them ALL! At least I can try to wear them longer and added bonus my hair stretched some!
Until next time....
