MINI HAIR UPDATE

Hello ladies

I promised you a giveaway and the giveaway is almost here.  There are two items in the giveaway.  I have one of the items and had hoped to pick up the second part last week; however I was so busy that I could not fit it in.  I will pick up the item today and publish the giveaway post by Tuesday (that’s the plan for now).

In the meantime I thought I should write a very brief mini update of my hair because I have ended my stretch after 6 months.  I relaxed my hair last week (part of the reason why I was busy) and will have my relaxer update post up before the end of the week.

Hairducation 6 months stretch

My hair the day before my texlax

I am glad the stretch is over, my texlax went well and I am happy with the results.  I don’t know if I will stretch for 6 months again or just stick to my usual 5 months.  I guess I will see how I feel as time goes on.

How are your journeys going?  Please share your hair updates if you have any and come back soon for details of the giveaway and my relaxer update.

      Hello Vera

      My relaxer update post will be up really soon. Steaming your hair with a protein and/or moisturising deep conditioner the day you relax is actually quite an important part of healthy relaxed hair care.
      hope that helps

    I second Vera on that. Let’s see post-texlax pics pls! Rubbing my hands in anticipation of the gveaways! Who doesn’t like freebies :)?
    My hair journey is going well my hair has been starved ofmoisture for so long it just drinks it all in. I’m still trying to figure out what i really want to do going forward. Texlax, natural, bone straight? For the life of me, i can hardly remember what my natural hair really was like – last time i had it was 24 years ago so i’m curious hmmmm. WIll keep going with my stretch and see…
    Lade, How did you transition to texlaxed hair?

      Tolu of life!!!
      The texlax post is now up. Are you going to enter the giveaway?
      Glad your hair journey is still going well and whether you texlax, relax or go natural I am sure you will be able to care for it well.

      I transitioned to texlaxed accidentally before my hair journey. I used to go to a hair stylists who did not relax he clients hair bone straight. I hated it then but never tried to correct it. Not long after I discovered healthy hair care and realised that texlaxing was actually better for my hair.

    Hi LADE, my problem is during d stretch my hair becomes too thick n hard to comb. Then when relaxing it is another painful process…pls what can I do to make it soft n less painful?
