Hair, Skin, and Nails Vitamins

Today I started taking Spring Valley Hair, Skin, and Nails with Collagen Plus Biotin Vitamins. There are 120 capsules in the bottle and I am supposed to take 3 per day.

In 40 days, I will be sure to update on how my hair, skin, and nails are doing.

As a note: I am having horrible cystic acne right now, hopefully, these vitamins will help clear my skin.

6 Years Natural and Still Learning

Lately, my hair has been really dry and I am hoping that I won't have to cut my ends. I just barely made hip length and I am ecstatic about my new length!

Today, I decided to clarify with baking soda and water. Then, I deep conditioned for four hours with SheaMoisture Organic Coconut and Hibiscus Curl Enhancing Smoothie mixed with SheaMoisture Organic Coconut and Hisbicus Hold and Shine Moisture Mist and an Olive Oil and Castor Oil blend.

I rinsed my hair and applied SheaMoisture Organic Coconut Hibiscus Curl and Style Milk and proceeded with styling my hair in two-strand twists.

I plan to moisturize every night in order to keep my hair from becoming dry.

I hope this plan works.

I also plan to Condition Only for a while to add more moisture.

Waist Length to Bra Strap Length

I made it to waist length again, approaching tail bone and I noticed that my ends were dry and brittle. No amount of moisturizing was going to help so I took scissors to my hair. I am now at Bra Strap Length stretched and all of my hair is roughly the same length. I love the short look and we will see where I go from here. :-)

Detangled and conditioner only washed my hair. I'm feeling good waiting on the hubby to come home from work. I'm wearing my hair to bed in a wet bun.

I'm taking down my 2 week old twists. I really want to do box braids but I'm not crazy about braids. Maybe I will try it today. I have to do me and my daughter's hair. Wash and style both of us is on my to do list for today. Wish me luck on getting it done!

Sooo... I finally got the time (thanks to my lovely hubby for watching the kids) to wash and style my hair. I clarified first with V05 Kiwi Lime Clarifying Shampoo. Then, I conditioned with Pantene Pro-V Curls and I detangled thoroughly. I finished my pampering session by putting in a full set of two-strand twists. Pics are in my fotki album. :)

Once again, I have been neglecting my hair. Not as horribly as before but I definitely should pay more attention to it. I'm going to try to go back to my more simple routine of condition only washing and applying a moisturizer. I'm also going to work on defining my curls more.

Hopefully, I can put some twists in tonight. :)
