So I have been missing in action. A lot has been going on in life, but hopefully I am back on track with updating the various media sources.

Day 1, immediately after plopping,
hair is actually buttocks length |
Okay, so lets get started. My current hair routine is fairly simple now, I like to work easier not harder. I will co-wash my hair with Pantene Curly Hair Series Moisture Renewal Conditioner, it cost about $6-7 at Walmart. I will co-wash and detangle in the shower in 4 sections with a Denman Classic Styling brush, it cost about $3-4 at my local beauty supply store. Out of the shower, I take each section and drench with TRESemme Naturals Conditioner. I add oil directly into the conditioner bottle, I use Carol's Daughter Tui Oil (I love the smell), but any oil will do. Once my entire head is drenched, I plop (check out latina4u55 youtube video on plopping or plunking your hair
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-iEUvUzO0q0,) for about 30mins-1hr, depending on how much time I have before leaving the house. After plopping, I let my hair down and figure out what I want to do with the front of my hair since it is much straighter. I will add a headband, gel front and pin or smooth the top and put a small clip on the top. My hair is usually long, wavy, shiny and gorgeous, I leave the house.
My Night-Time Routine: I mist my hair with a water bottle that has a little oil in it (only a light mist). I cover my hair with a plastic shower cap and cover that with a satin bonnet or scarf of any material, we are only trying to keep the shower cap on and trap the natural heat from your scalp. When I awake in morning, my hair is usually damp. Interestingly enough my hair now has a different pattern it is no longer long and wavy, it is now half the length with a tight curl pattern (shrinkage). I still have the issue of straighter hair in the front so, I style the front however I feel for the day.
