Routine: January 2003
I have figured out a routine (finally) that works for me and my TWA. Here goes:

Day 1:
1. I conditioner wash hair
2. After rinsing throughly, I add diluted conditioner to my hair. Currently I am using about an 8 to 1 part mixture of water and Au Lait. I leave this in.
3. Once I'm out of the shower I add a small (dime sized) dab of moisturizer: Mizani.
4. Now I add a medium (quarter sized) dollop of coconut oil to seal in the moisture and for sheen.
5.Now I loosely tie my hair down with a scarf and get ready for work.
6.Lastly I remove the scarf and *WOW!*
7.After work, I play with my hair all night *ha* and then tie it down with a satin scarf and sleep.
Day 2:
1. I take a shower with no scarf or shower cap on. This makes my hair 'wake up'...especially any squished parts.
2. I get dressed and go to work.
3. That night I sleep in a satin scarf and start all over again.
Weekly:
1. I wash with diluted shampoo, baking soda and conditioner. It's about a tablespoon of shampoo, a tablespoon of baking soda, and 4 tablespoons of conditioner in water. This helps to get off any buildup from the conditioner and oil that used in my hair.
2. I do a deep conditioning treatment with whatever I'm feeling like that week. Ex. Wella, Honey Mix, Jojoba, Olive Oil, Placenta. Each of these things have a slightly different affect on my hair...but for the most part they are all (with the exception of placenta) great for restoring the moisture in my hair. The placenta gives shine.
