I know what works for my hair now and as much as I have fallen in love with air-drying my relaxed hair on wash day, when my hair gets to 9 weeks post relaxer, air-drying alone is not enough if I want manageable hair. The Root2Tip Triple M Miracle Moisture Milk has been a life saver for me when it comes to my new growth and has become a favourite again. 

Check out my video below on how I soften my new growth and stretch to 12 weeks post relaxer or slightly longer.

Late Post

These are the steps I followed for last weeks wash day on Sunday 9th November at 12 weeks post:

I rinsed my hair and then shampooed with Creme of Nature Argan Oil Shampoo.
I tea rinsed my hair using green tea, towel dried for 2 minutes and left the tea in my hair.

I applied my deep conditioner mix; Creme of Nature Argan Oil Intensive Conditioning Treatment, Aphogee Balancing Moisturizer Conditioner, Honey, Avocado Oil, EV Coconut Oil & EV Olive Oil. I covered with a plastic cap and sat under the hood dryer for 30 minutes, allowed my hair to cool then rinsed and finger detangled.

I towel dried for 2 minutes, finger detangled my hair and then t-shirt dried for 20 minutes before applying my leave ins; Shea Moisture Yucca & Baobab Thickening Growth Milk, Root2Tip Triple M Milk and Creme of Nature Argan Oil. I detangled with a wide teeth comb in four sections and then air-dried using the scarf method.


When my hair was 90% dry, I moisturised and sealed with Root2Tip Triple M Milk and Grapeseed Oil. I oiled my scalp using my scalp oil mix of JBCO, Avocado Oil & EV Olive Oil.

My chosen protective style the next morning!
