Wedding guest Natural hair style

In my "struggling with getting rid of my thinning ends post" I talked about the anxiety i had about styling my hair for an event i had in december 2017.

I was pleased to come up with a simple, cute and elegant hair style that i was confident in. You won't believe i had some Marley hair in there, no wonder people kept on asking if it was all my hair.😊😉

Length check July 2018: Natural hair is magic

Length Stats:
Back: 14 inches Middle: 13 inchesFront: 12 inches
quite a lot of growth and length retention from November 2017 when i cut my hair to about 8 inches in the front and 10 inches in the back.
Volume Check: One of the problems that led to cutting my hair was thinning ends. Thankfully, i have been able to maintain relatively the same hair density across the length of my hair.

Hair Routine Stats: My hair routine is way way simplified now that i make my own deepconditioner/detangler/leave-in conditioner.
I still wash my hair and finger detangle weekly.
Now, i trim my hair every 4 months and give the knots a snip snip when they show up.(that is every wash day).
Detangling still takes too long though!! I was able to get it down to 1hr. I would really love to get down to 30 mins or less.
So far so good. Can't wait to see my progress by December 2018.

Getting rid of all commercial hair care products in my hair care.

I decided to stop using all store bought hair products.

Why?

1.I just don't want to buy hair products any more!. Am also just curious. Can I grow my hair and care for it with out all the numerous products springing up? There is something so liberating about being able to make your own products and to know that some one in some remote area can grow their hair using common ingredients in their Locale.

2. Scalp and Skin sensitivity to most ingredients: I react to almost all commercially available hair products. Even the ones that say "natural Ingredients" irritate my scalp and skin in the shower.( very uncomfortable feeling)

3. Most store bought hair products just sit on my hair anyway, it just feels kind of deceptive. Don't even get me started on the cost. I want something that is truly taking care of my hair strands.

I will be documenting my progress and Findings.
