So my update so far is that I am 64 weeks into my long-term transition. I haven't trimmed my hair or done any major cuts (as you can see in the previous post) since then. I'm really focusing on retaining length at this point. Once in a while I can't think of anything to do with my hair and I want to grab some shears and BC so badly, but I think about my super bun (pictures will appear soon), and I hold out.
I have recently, and by recently I mean 2 days ago, discovered my perfect regimen and product combination for my hair.
For in the shower:
- Aussie Moist
- J/A/S/O/N Biotin Shampoo
- Garnier Fructis Sleek and Shine
- Aussie Smooth
- HE Hello Hydration
- South of France Shea Butter Bar
Styling:
- Cantu Shea Butter Leave-in Conditioner
- Garnier Fructis Triple Nutrition
- Garnier Cream Gel
- EVCO
- Smooth n' Shine Curl Activator Gel
I have replaced Fantasia IC gel with Smooth n' Shine and it is amazing. I have read a lot of hype about Fantasia and I used it for a long time, but it just doesn't do what I want it to. I have no beauty supply store near me, so I have to rely on what Target or Walmart for most of my products. When I go home next weekend I'm going to live in the beauty supply store.
I also recently made a lot of purchases of organic and natural up-keep and cleansing products.
for a total of about $40 I got:
- rosewater
- glycerin
- essential oils of peppermint
- essential oils of lavender
- jojoba oil
- biotin capsules
- aloe vera juice
- soap nuts
I just have to get a measuring container thingee (wow my descriptive English is terrible) for the soap nut liquid, and a spray bottle for my other mixture.
I ordered everything a few days ago, so I hope everything gets here early next week.
Ok I think this post is long enough, so... bye.
