My daily hair routine.
I have chemically treated hair x 2. My hair is relaxed (straightened with chemicals) and color treated. This can cause my hair to be a bit dry, so I have to restore moisture daily.
I use 5 products:
Aloe vera juice (diluted in filtered water).
Elasta QP olive oil & mango butter
Coconut oil (warm days) or Grape seed oil (colder days).
Kinky curly Glossy Pomade
Using my fingers, I divide my hair in three sections. Then I spritz the palms of my hands with aloe vera juice and tap my hands on each section, followed by a dime size of elasta qp butter and seal my ends with the coconut oil. I put a little pomade on my edges.
Then, I put my hair in a bun. (I do this about 6 out of 7 days of the week).
If I am wearing my hair down, then I would do a cross wrap instead.
Oh yeah, I finish with a satin bonet or satin scarf to maintain the moisture on my hair and keep my hair in place while I am sleeping. :)
It is quite simple!
What is your daily routine?

The quest for long hair...
Since I was a little girl I have always wanted long hair. I remember Disney movies and princesses, but the one that caused the bigger impression in me was Rapunzel. She is actually one of the few, or perhaps the only one of the princesses that actually actively contributed to being rescued by prince charming...ahhhh her long beautiful, strong hair saved her.
I don't know if that cartoon caracter brain washed me, but ever since I wanted to be like her and have, strong healthy long, long, very long hair.
Somehow though, this dream has escaped from me for years...but no more! This blog, together with my youtube channel (Long4aHairLover) will document my quest, no, better yet, hunt (lol) for long, very long and healthy hair.
This is dedicated to all of you who wish for the same :)
