I've been seeing some growth, my head seems a little less bald lol.  I think I have figured out a regimen for my hair. Co wash twice a week, spray with water every night, wash and go's, weekly dc with honey, olive oil and  conditioner on the weekends,the biweekly ACV rinse, no sulfates, pH balanced products, kimmaytube leave in, aloe Vera juice and water spray bottle... all in all I'm very surprised I haven't been having any issues with keeping my hair moisturized. I live in the Midwest and we have very cold harsh winters here. So far no problems on my new natural hair journey.

New products for my natural hair

Since my big chop I've been acquiring natural hair friendly products to use on my not quite twa.
Just trying to figure out what works for my hair...
Shea Moisture sulfate free shampoo
Co wash conditioners
My  favorite is  The Trader Joe Nourish Spa

I love this as a DC and a co wash conditioner, it has great slip.
Giovanni Direct Leave In a little goes a long way on my twa gives some curl definition
This stuff gives great curl definition
Organic Coconut oil and Castor oil for sealing moisture in
Last but not least eco styler gel which gives amazing curl definition and reduces frizz.





I use a spritz bottle of water and vegetable glycerin mixed together to refresh my wash and go and another spray bottle with water mixed with 4 oils to seal when I'm refreshing my wash and go.
