Well another wash day has come around and I decided to change things up in an attempt to revitalize my strands. Instead of doing my normal deep condition and hot oil treatment, I decided to try a protein treatment. In addition to the protein alone, I used conditioner as a base and added some oils as well – kind of like a 3-in-one treatment.
I started with a clarifying wash in order to get rid of build up. Then I applied the treatment and let if sit for about 30 minutes. After rinsing the treatment out, I did my standard ACV rinse. I skipped the honey rinse this time since honey was included in the protein treatment and I don’t need too much moisture drawn into my strands.
I applied my leave-in and sealed my ends with coconut oil. After letting my hair air dry until it was damp instead of soaking wet, I flat twisted it.
My twistout was turned out great – no frizz or fly-aways. My curls were very defined and I love the sheen the ACV rinse provided. (Forgot to take pics of my first day hair.)
Here is a pic of my hair after being in flat twists for the past three days. It is still extremely soft, well moisturized, and has awesome sheen.
