Ok so todya is Monday 9-28-09 and I washed and deep conditioned today. I really liked the results. I started my new "hair regimen" last Monday and I was definitely getting a little skeptical. On Thursday I gave my hair a protein treatment using the Aphogee shampoo for damaged hair and the 2 min Reconstructor and my hair came out so NOT soft. It was hard and just ewwwwey all around. I know after a protein treatment you're supposed to do a moisturizing conditioner so I wasn't thrown off at first but ofter I deep conditioned with the Herbal Essences Long Term Relationship Conditioner (HE L/T C) with Extra Virgin Olive Oil (EVOO) added to it, I thought it would have come out soooo nice. It didn't. :-(
So I thought to use my sisters Lustre Silk Shea Butter Cholesterol with the EVOO added to it and it still didnt come out how I wanted it to. Even after I used the S-Curl Activator as a leave in it really didn't give me any results that I was crazy over.
Today I washed with Carol Daughter (CD) shampoo, something with Rosemary in the name I think. I'm under the hooded dryer, deep conditioning so I'm not sure what it is, but i do know it was a CD product. Before I shampooed I prepooed with the HE L/T C with te EVOO added to it and baggyed. I left that on for about an hour while I was doing some chores and sagt under the dryer for about 5 min and there was very little breakage and shedding! Which I loved. I'm now deep conditioning with Silk Elements Moisturizing treatment, which I will now use as my DC. HE L/T C can be used for prepooing only because it doesnt seem to be conditioning enough for my hair.
I've been under the dryer for about 20 minutes and will wash it out, add the leave in, blow dry. (I'll explain why I blow dry when I post my regimen) moisturize and seal, and apply Jamaican Black Castor Oil to my scalp.
I'm hot and have to go finish the laundry so I'll update next week or next month. I'm not too sure about how often I will be posting here.

An intro....I guess....
Ok so I've decided to try and grow my hair. I cut my hair from a little under shoulder length to scalp length (aka extra extra short) in November 2007. Now I want to grow it back. :-)
I mena, I do love my short hair. I think it looks nice on me but I just want to see if I will be able to grow it. Its kind of like a challenge to me. I've been looking at youtube videos and checking out some websites online and I've see how there are girls out there who really took care of their hair and it really grew. So I'm kind of challenging myself to see if I can do it too.
So this is the whole point of this blog, to document going from ear length to shoulder length. I don't expect any followers or anything but I thought I should at least but some sort of effort in this blog, so it doesn't end out being a COMPLETE hot mess. Lol.
Ok, so here is my blog.
