2ND CARMEL PROCEDURE

So, I did my 2nd carmel deep condition. Here is what I put in it
  1. 4 tablespoons molasses
  2. 4 tablespoons glycerine
  3. 4 tablespoons castor oil
  4. 4 tablespoons honey
  5. 2 cap fulls of ACV
  6. some Amla oil
  7. Some vatika
  8. A container of bananas
  9. 4 tablespoons grapeseed
I left it in my hair for just over 2.5 hours and then washed it out with VO5. I then put some ORS Con in my hair and washed it out about 1.5 hour later. I applied KODL, SCurl, Castor oil and went to bed. The next morning, I applied Vatika oil and combed. The amount of hair I lost was okay. However, I noticed that my hair had lots of tangles. Well, maybe 5. I combed and detangled and straightened with my FHI flat iron.

My hair did not feel silky the way it probably did the last time. In fact as i sit here, my hands cannot run through my hair smoothly. I am not sure if that is because I didn't shampoo. But, the next time I do a carmel treatment, I will shampoo before con. I have now decided that i will not wait until the end of April to relax. I will give myself 2 weeks (to give my scalp a post-MN break).

I see some growth on the left side of my head but not as much as I expected, honestly and it is very frustrating but mostly disappointing. Hopefully over the next 2 weeks, my hair will grow a little bit, but right now, I think I need to simply get Boundless Tresses and try it 1 month into my new relaxer or once my NG kicks in whichever happens first.
