Shampoo and conditioner, create your basic wash routine
It’s best to have a routine that caters to your hair when you are taking care of your relaxed hair at home. Finding a routine aka regimen for my hair hasn’t been an easy road, but the outcome to sticking to a routine did wonders. I mean, before my hair journey my new growth was soft & stiff and know I’m able to stretch my hair for 20+ weeks.

Have a hair regimen to keep your relaxed hair healthy!
Taking care of you hair can be a task. Let me emphasize on the word CAN. In the beginning of my hair journey I did everything what I thought was needed, but over the years, I have found a hair regimen that works for me, my lifestyle & hair.
hair regimen
a systematic plan especially designed to improve and maintain the health of your hair.
“Create a hair routine that your hair needs”
I spoke a little bit about having a hair regimen a.k.a. a hair routine that caters to your hair. There is no one way regimen when it comes to having & maintaining healthy hair, but you need a hair regimen.
Before I go in and share my hair regimen, I want to make it clear I’m not talking about hair products. A hair regimen is a routine based on treatments that you do for your hair.

I cut my relaxed hair at home to bring back healthy hair!
In my previous post I mentioned that I was dealing with breakage especially in my crown area. My hair was growing, but the length in middle was not matching up. Also I have been in a nasty funk when it comes to my hair. I wasn’t pleased with any hair style, so I knew it was time for a change. It’s time to cut my relaxed hair.

Relaxed hair confession session, hair breakage!
I have a confession! After relaxing my hair in February, I stayed at family member place for 3 weeks. During that period is when the laziness of not taking care of my hair became worse. Although I kept up with washing my every week, I failed in how I needed to take care of my hair during the week.

Have a relaxed hair regimen to get healthy hair!
When I started my relaxed hair journey I didn’t know where to begin. So finding ladies on YouTube that shared their relaxed hair regimen was a blessing. My hair needed a solid hair routine to get my relaxed hair healthy again.
