The night before I wash my hair I detangle it with an inexpensive conditioner. I've found the best way for me to detangle; since my hair is growing out; is to section it into 8 sections. 2 at the very top of my head; 1 on each side; beginning at the tip of my ears forward, and 4 in the back of my head; 2 on each side. Once I've sectioned my hair using elastic hair bands (
this process is aka mini pineapples or just p
ineapple for those wi
th longer hair. T
he longer your hair; the fe
wer pineapples n
eeded.) I finger detangle then re-band each section. After finger detangling is complete; I wear a plastic cap, and satin cap, or sleep on satin pillowcase for the night. Sometime the next day; usually in the A.M. hours; I rinse the conditioner from my hair; with the hair bands still in place, (I take them out; if I feel that I have detangled really well; I will take them out, and put them back in after the rinse.) Taking down 1 hair band at a time; I apply leave-in conditioner and style; usually in 2 strand twist or finger coils.
I do the above routine 3 times a month, and the 4th week I follow the same procedures, but once I rinse the conditioner out, I wash my hair with African Black Soap. Once the black soap is rinsed out; I add protein rich conditioner; cover my hair with a plastic cap and let it sit for at least 15 minutes. Next; I rinse the protein conditioner and add a leave-in conditioner, and style as usual.
This routine works for me right now; next week, month, year; this routine may change. I researched and found my routine on YouTube. I tweeked it to fit me. Check out my pictures below.
