Hair update!!!

I must admit that im horrific when it comes to this blogging business. I mean its been over a year since my last post...yikes!!!. Any way this is just an update on the status of my fro. Although it seem to be going nowhere slowly {sigh} there is some growth all right. I have learnt a tremendous deal about natural hair care this past year. It has also helped me now that there is a growing network of Botswana Naturals on Facebook, so its easier to get information on products and even get the American products i used to salivate for online. They have even organised hairmeets, the second one having American hair youtube vlogger Tiffanynicholsdesign
as the guest speaker.

My hair has been a series of contradictions depending on the treatment. It can go from super-soft- easy- to- style- bliss to hard- impossible -stubborn in a space of 2 days...hehehe. I have therefore learnt to embrace its different moods. Needless to say im totally loving my hair journey.

Its been 3 months since my maiden voyage of my natural hair journey. Afro is growing well. There is not much I can do to it except wash, condition, protein treatments and that sort. Its the dreaded winter time when most fros hide under protective styles like braids, weaves and the like. Mine is prevented from doing so by the length. My intention is also not to dye or manipulate it for at leat seven months. I will just let it grow wild. The mission for this dreary winter is to keep my hair moisturised and soft, which I have managed to do so far. Recently before wash, I pre poo with a concoction of Tresseme Naturals conditoner, honey, aloe and olive oil. I wash  with a sulphate free shampoo (I will look up the name but i got it from spar) and condition with the  Naturals or Pantene. I use Sta so Fro braid spray for moisture and seal with coconut oil or the ORS avocado and shea butter creme. I sometimes use the Soft n Free styling gel for curl definition....
