Normally I’m hyped to do a moisture treatment. Only with this wash I had my mind on a specific protein treatment. As I was proceeding with my routine I had to switch products, because their was something missing.
Let’s get In Control by using some products from the past
I think by now you know that my hair is in need for some serious help. In my previous post I mentioned that I’m dealing with breakage and having split ends. At the moment we are dealing with the Corona crisis, but I’m dealing with some serious hair crisis. Because I still plan on stretching my hair till 20 weeks, I have called for some remedies.
In the past I have used ApHogee Keratin 2 Minute Reconstructor & Aunt Jackie’s in Control and both of this products are great for my hair. I haven’t used them in a while, but that is going to change.
Wash routine, fighting breakage with ApHogee!
I’m still focused on getting my hair right. It has almost been 6 weeks when I did a ApHogee protein treatment. So you already know what time it is.
Wash day | Which conditioner to use?!
wash day which conditioner to use
In the morning I was all gassed up for my wash routine. I started my day with going to the gym and do some groceries. When I came home, I start thinking of which products to use and there is where I got stuck. Because of my last week wash routine I wanted to make sure that I only used products that have moisturizing elements.
Step 1 Shampoo
I enjoyed using ApHogee Deep Moisture Shampoo last week, so why not using it again. This time I didn’t part my hair in sections. While I was shampooing my hair I made sure to really focus on getting my scalp clean. My work-out in the morning had my scalp sweating. After two rounds of shampooing I rinsed my hair with lukewarm water. Before I get ready for the next step I cover my hair with a t-shirt and t-shirt dry my hair for 20 minutes.
Step 2 Conditioner
Normally I know which conditioner I want to use, but this time I was lost. You know that my focus is on moisturizing my hair. So with that in mind I had to use Creme of Nature Pure Honey Moisturizing Dry Defense conditioner. To give the conditioner an extra boost, I added some oils (Castor oil, Jojoba oil and Peppermint oil). In sections of four I applied the conditioner to my hair, concentrating on my new growth, nape and edges.
Without heat I let the conditioner sit for 30 minutes.
Step 3 Leave-in
Let’s continue with using moisturizing elements. After t-shirt drying for 30 minutes I applied Creme of Nature Pure Honey Knot Away Leave-in Detangler. Although I don’t need help with detangling my hair, I like this product because of the thickness. Concentrating on my ends I applied the leave-in to my hair and sealed with Jojoba oil.
I didn’t have any plans, so I just combed out my hair and let it air dry.
Wrapping up!
My wash routine started a little bit off, but baybey at the end my hair felt sooo good. I really believe that adding the oils to the conditioner really gave my hair some extra TLC. During air-drying I ran my fingers through my hair and let me tell you. My hair felt so soft and thick!
Which moisturizing conditioner did you use lately?

Wash day | When ApHogee is here to rescue you!
Last Saturday’s wash routine was all about protein. With last week wash routine I noticed that my hair was limp and the breakage was real. While I was coming my hair I saw short strands falling on the ground. This was a sign that my hair needed a protein treatment. This is the reason why for this wash I focused on doing a protein treatment. Are you ready to have a wash day with ApHogee?
Wash day | February 14!
For the wash routine I decided to do a ‘hard’ protein treatment, because last week I texlaxed my hair. I can’t remember when I did a protein treatment – I really need to do better –
Step 1
The routine started with washing my hair. As always I shampooed my hair in four sections using ApHogee Deep Moisture shampoo. The hair loss during the wash was minimal. After that I wrapped my hair with a towel and let it sit for 15 minutes, to soak all the water.
