5 minute hair Regimen


/Hi
I want to talk about curl definition. Namely my curl definition. In the beginning of my natural hair journey getting curl definition was not high on my list of things. I would just twist my hair and loose it out the next day and then "booyah" curl definition. However days would happen like the one in the picture below and I would have to take and afro pick to my hair.


My hair 3-4 months ago
I have noticed though that over time my hair has more curl definition and seems to instantly form coils and mini curls on my head :D.
Please ignore the thread

Look I have sprigs
I have noticed that my curls are becoming more pronounced and defined since I started co -washing only with occasional clay treatments. Also these pics posted show what my hair looks like in the evening around 7 pm. The only problem I have is getting all the conditioner out in the mornings.

:-o Did I mention that I use conditioner every morning (unless I have in a fabulous hairstyle of course)? No??!! Well, now you know. Here is what I use every morning:

Alikay Naturals Caribbean Coconut Conditioner- Lots of thick coco nutty goodness (yes I said it :p)

Kinky Curly Knot Today Leave In


That's it. Those are the products I use every morning. I wet my hair in the shower and put on the Caribbean Coconut and finger de-tangle. I leave it on while and shower before I come out I rinse it out thoroughly and while my hair is still wet I add in the Knot today and let dry. More often than not though all of the product does not dry in or my hair may be too wet so I normally wrap my hair in a t-shirt until I am ready to go out the door. I give it a little pat before I take it off and style as I see fit before I leave.

This is one of my easiest ways to style my hair. Sometimes I may even twist my hair from the night before and after I have done my co-wash and leave in application I will take out the twist and have a curly and cutre twist out.

What about you, do you have a quick and simple hair regimen?
