update on the challenge

In hair care on 07.5.08 at 6:17 pm

so my “does it really work challenge” has already started, and as promised, i have taken some pictures of the first month’s beginning length:

i’ll also be wearing headwraps throughout the summer. these help protect my hair from the sun, and they also cover up any frizziness and messy-looking twists that i tend to wear during my protective challenges.

you can check out my fotki album for the latest photo updates on this challenge.

during this month, i’ll be spritzing my hair with the following rosemary spritz:

water (most of the bottle)
vegetable glycerin (several squeezes; probably 1/3 cup)
rosemary oil (a couple tablespoons or so)
coconut oil (a few tablespoons)

along with the spritz, here are other products that i’ll be using regularly:

  • trader joe’s conditioner
  • dr. bronner’s peppermint-hemp castile soap
  • elucence moisture benefits shampoo
  • blended beauty happy nappy styles cream
  • fruit of the earth aloe vera gel
