Daily: I condition wash my hair everyday with Aubrey Organics Honeysuckle Rose Moisturizing Conditioner (with a few capsules of Biotin dissolved in it). After washing my hair...I lightly moisturize (while wet) with a little Coconut Oil, and Shea Butter. I usually air dry my hair in a bun...or four braided ponytails. In the morning, I mist my ends with a little distilled water, and dab a little Oyin Whipped Pudding on them to seal the moisture in. to smooth down fly-a-ways...I use Oyin Shine + Define as a holding product for my edges and crown area. I try my best to keep my ends pinned up when I'm at home (I really try...but I'm still suffering from hand in hair disease!).

Nightly: I wear a satin bonnet and a plastic cap to help keep my hair moisturized. I also wear a satin wrap under the cap and bonnet to smooth down my edges.

Weekly: Once a week...I clarify with an Apple Cider Vinegar rinse. Before clarifying...I section my hair into 4 four braids, and put a little conditioner on my ends to protect them.

Monthly: If I need a good protein treatment...I deep condition over night with natural henna. If I need a hot oil treatment...I mix Vatika, and Dabur Anmol Coconut Oil in a plastic container... and nuke it for about 30 seconds. I massage the oil throughout my hair for a couple of minutes. I usually let this mixture soak on my hair for at least 30 minutes before washing it out.

Back in February, my friend Sajid sent me a few hair care products from India as gifts. Isn't he a big sweetie pie? Now I'm completely hooked on them! As long as I can afford them (insha'Allah)...they will remain a staple in my regimen.
