Wash Routine using Oh So Natural



Wash day for some us Naturalistas is a day we dread or day we enjoy. Its full of washing, detangling, combing, brushing, conditioning, rinsing, styling and the list goes on…So here you’ll find my routine for my typical wash days. My regimen is very simplistic, I only use Oh So Natural with the exception of eco styler. I honestly don't do too much to my hair, I have gone from wash and goes everyday to stretching twistouts up to 2 weeks! Remember to customize and make your regimens  uniquely  yours!

To get started:

1.                  Pre-poo treatment (conditioning treatment done before cleansing or shampooing to add extra moisture to hair)

a.       Apply and let sit for at least 10 min

b.      Quick Recipe: mix honey and olive oil together or try Black Tea rinse to help with shedding!

 

2.                  Wash/Cleanse with Oh So Natural Deep Cleansing Clay Mask

a.       Apply to hair in small workable sections by massaging into roots and smoothing to ends

b.      Let sit 15-30 min then thoroughly rinse clean

c.       This is a creamy bentonite clay wash that gently removes product buildup by absorbing toxins, impurities, and build up without stripping the hair like some shampoos and sulfates. It pH balances, helps detangle, define curls and condition hair.

 

3.                  Condition

a.       I usually skip this part, since my hair is left moisturized after using the clay mask

b.      Mid week I overnight condtion with a plastic cap and rinse/cowash the next day

 

4.                  Style- LOC Method ( During this phase I finger detangle and may use a denman brush to clump and define my curls)

 

a.       Part hair into 4 sections

                                                              i.      Separate into smaller workable sections

b.      Apply liquid (water) as needed

c.       Massage Stimulating Growth oil into scalp and smooth from root to ends

                                                              i.      This oil is blend of castor, olive, sweet almond oil, grapeseed oil, vitamin E and essential oils to help promote hair growth

d.      Smooth in Whipped Crème Brulee root to ends (focusing on ends)

                                                              i.      Creamy whipped shea butter that penetrates and seals hair follicles packed with nutrients and vitamins that give hair shine and moisture

e.       Add styler- Curl Glaze smooth root to ends

                                                              i.      Made  fresh from flaxseeds that gives hair soft hold without the crunch and promotes hair growth

f.       Finish with style of choice (wash and go, twists out, bantu knots, etc.)

 

5.                  Daily/Nightly Maintenance

a.       I alternate between refreshing at night using the LOC method and re-twisting or simply putting my hair in a Pineapple (high ponytail)
