Wash Day - 7/28

Last wash day was a little different from what I'd normally do.

I had a braidout that I wore to my sister's welcome home bash that was old and dry after partying so hard lol.

Still Flexing - Wash Day {5/2}

Last wash day I started off by:

• detangling and pre-pooing with coconut oil. Of course I braided in my 4 sections as per usual.
• Next I added my queen helene DC mix from this post sans glycerin
• then I hopped in the shower to rinse. I skipped the shampoo this week and went straight for my Aussie moist instant conditioner.
• after I rinsed, I t-shirt dried for 15 mins and then it was on to install some flexi rods.

Sayounara Sucker - 5 reasons I Said Good-bye to (Multiple) Mid-week Co-washing

Co-washing - using only conditioner to cleanse your hair - is a very useful technique in the milieu that is our hair regimen. In addition to cleansing, it can be used to replenish the hair with much-needed moisture. It can replace the shampoo wash altogether. It is done anywhere from every day to weekly, fortnightly or at even greater intervals. I personally happen to like co-washing as I like to wash once per week, but don't think I need to shampoo that often, so co-washing is a great alternative.

What I am speaking of in this post is the multiple-times-per-week cowashing. Last week I performed the inversion method. Rinsing every day of the seven days was a requirement, but I just couldn't bring myself to do it. For right now once a week is my max, why?
