Just over a month ago, I came across a post by Sunshyne of Hairlista.inc about the Coconut Oil Challenge made my mind up there and then that I would join...
The benefits of the Coconut oil challenge: to Strengthen, Thicken, and Fortify your Hair
The benefits of the Coconut oil challenge: to Strengthen, Thicken, and Fortify your Hair
The challenge is for 3 months and started on Saturday 24th May and ends on 23rd August 2014.
There are three levels:
Basic
- Prepoo with coconut oil - apply coconut oil to your hair and scalp for 20 minutes to overnight prior to washing your hair. Massage it in focusing on damaged areas then proceed with your wash day routine. Once a week.
I decided to wash my hair on Saturday afternoon as I was having a lazy day and planned to have a family day out on Sunday.
These are the steps I followed for my wash day:
I pre-pooed my hair and scalp with my Coconut oil for 40 mins with heat using my hair therapy heat wrap.
I shampooed my hair twice times with ORS HaiRepair Invigorating Shampoo and when towel drying my hair to apply conditioner noticed I had a white residue build up in some areas on my scalp and roots so I lathered once more just to ensure I hadn't missed those areas. I towel dried and checked again and the build up was still there. I picked up my clarifying shampoo but something told me to my staple shampoo Creme of Nature Moisture and Shine Shampoo and with one lather and rinse my hair was clean. I have used the ORS Invigorating shampoo twice before with no problems so I will try it again to see how it performs before doing a review.
I have been slacking and haven't updated my blog in like 6-8 weeks.... Main reason is because I've been enjoying settling into my new job, coming home and spending time with my family etc and time just hasn't allowed.
Rather than adding a long drawn out post with an update on my hair, I made a quick video instead...
My apologies about the quality but I made this video on my iPad and forgot to ensure I was recording with landscape rather than portrait :(
