Hello Transitioners,
Transitioning Corner today, we would be talking regimen. I would share with you my regimen and process and ask some of my burning questions which I hope other transitioning can relate to and give me answers based on experience.
Let's talk;
Asides all my mini research, my room mate is also on a natural hair journey and she gives me pointers. We purchased different oils and I use them on my hair. Coconut Oil, Jojoba Oil, Castor Oil and Olive Oil.
Question 1: How much Oil is too much Oil?
When I don't have a protective style on, I wash my hair once in a week. Wash with black soap and condition my hair after. If i've had a protective style, I deep condition my hair with a DIY mix which has banana, honey, egg, olive oil and mayonnaise a recipe my room mate gave me.

Question 2: When caring for the 2 textures, do you just concentrate on the new growth? What worked/works for you?

What was/is your regimen like? How does it help with managing the 2 textures?
I just big chopped last month so I can relate. A lot of ps helped and I was always moisturizing my hair so I had a lot of growth.
ReplyDeleteI agree with you Esther. When transitioning, PS helps.
DeletePlease, is this PS a different lingua? What's the meaning o?
DeleteI'm transitioning too. My regimen hasn't changed too much since I started. For your first question, my hair (natural & relaxed) does not like too much oil. It tends to feel greasy. Most of my products have oils in them so I find that I don't need to add anymore. For your second question, I focus more on my natural hair but I don't completely neglect the relaxed part. I look forward to more updates.
