My Own Version Of Maximum Hydration (LOC Method Twice A Day)

Okay I saw online some naturals doing something called maximum hydration.  I decided right away that I couldn't do the whole process so I made up my own method.  I kept the main part of the process co-washing my hair twice a day and I used Herbal Essence Cleansing Conditioner.   I mixed silk protein with Mane 'n Tail and used it as my leave-in conditioner.  I made my own DIY gel and used Shea butter to seal in the moisture.  So basically I did the LOC Method twice a day.  To get the real Maximum Hydration Method just click.  Check out my results below.

Day 1

Okay I started late yesterday afternoon so I only detangled/washed my hair once. This is after first detangle we will see if it changes at all. My goal is to have tangle free hair with less shrinkage and less frizz (optional). 

Day 2

This was my first full day doing my version of maximum hydration. This was my second wash of the day.  Since I am not going out I skipped the gel part and only did my Mane N Tail/silk protein mix as a leave-in.  I used a spray on oil to seal my hair. Detangling my hair 3x in less than 36 hours has made a difference. It is my hope to change my hair's tangle patterns. Right now my hair is used to being tangled and goes right back to the tangle pattern even after I detangle it. I think that hydrating my hair will change this outcome but also detangling my hair twice a day and braiding it at night will give my hair the new "habit" of staying detangled.  

By Day 3 I was tired






3 days after last Hydration day (day 10)

I must say I liked what I used in my hair today.
L'ORÉAL Smooth Intense Polishing Conditioner and Sleek It Frizz Vanisher Cream really works on natural hair.

I love her.  I love her hair and her style and she can keep you from losing your hair.  Finger detangling is the best way and sometimes the only way.

Pleasantly Surprised By AS I AM Hair Products And Avon

Love Yascone my hair on AS I AM

Ok you know you are having a day when you lose everything you just wrote!

Yes, this is my second time writing this.  No, it is not going to be better than the first draft! I am sorry but I am lazy! I was supposed to write this a week ago and I am just now getting around to it so...Yeah lazy, depressed whatever.  Let's get to it shall we.

Two weeks ago I decided to runaway for a little while.  I left with only the clothes on my back and no hair products! Oops, I decided I didn't want to look like a total basket case, so I went to Target because Target always has a good selection of  hair products for natural/kinky/curly hair.  Now for over a year I have been avoiding AS I AM hair products because I thought they were all marketing and no...what is the word I am looking for? Oh well, I thought that it was going to be a waste of money.  Even though AS I AM is reasonably priced I thought it can't be as good as some of my favorite hair products.  Boy was I wrong!  AS I AM has a whole line of products that are perfect for natural hair.  I tried the Coconut Co-wash (smells like coconut), The Leave-in Conditioner, and Curling Jelly.  I loved this combination of products.  The co-wash felt good, cleaned my hair and I could detangle my hair using the co-wash.  The Leave-in Conditioner was rich and made my hair feel healthy.  The Curling Jelly helped define my curls and the combination of the three products made my hair feel healthy-silky-soft.  I couldn't stop touching my hair which is a problem because curly hair gets frizzy when it is touched to much.  The product made my hair feel and look good for days.  I really enjoyed using it on my hair.  Heck, I really enjoyed my hair. What a surprise! 

Note: I loved it so much I bought it for my mother and sister Faith.  I also had Faith try the detangling conditioner and I hope to get her to do a one minute video about the detangling conditioner at a later date.

Second big surprise of that week was Avon.  We had a party at our house.  It was a Family get together/18th birthday party for my cousin.  Now my Aunt CC gave away gift bags with Avon and I was lucky enough to get Avon's Skin So Soft signature silk body lotion.  I have extremely dry skin and the signature silk worked wonders on my dry and itchy skin.  It made my skin look healthy and feel healthy.  I was so surprised.  Avon really made a product that works on extremely dry skin.  I really love it.  Let's face it if I didn't love it I wouldn't write about.  There was a time when Avon was not cool but it works so...I will admit I love it and would buy it!  

So I have soft hair because of AS I AM and soft skin because of Avon.(www.youravon.com/cecekelly)
