Let me start off by saying it was a rough week and my hair was not really towards the top of my priority list, I haven’t made any new adjustment; I’ve barely been following a schedule. Still naturally there has been progress. Spoiler alert: the best part about this update is “no dandruff”. Worse thing is, I didn’t make as much progress as I could have, cause I didn’t put forth the effort.
I tried to make up for the lack of brushing my keeping my hair well to say the least “over moisturized” and that was a bad idea considering the hot summer heat wave we seem to be having up here lately. Bad for my skin and ultimately probably bad for my hair. Not to mention loss and dirty wave caps/du-rag numbers seem to be at an all time high. This has been a bad week for hair care.
So its been going on 2 weeks since I was able to get a professional haircut and that is what really saved my ass. As if to to know my own future of being a fuck up I got my hair cut so low that the first-ish week wether I brushed or not it really wasn’t hurting much. I wouldn’t say I planned to fail but a safety net is still a safety net.
Moving in to week three is when I am going to have to be on top of my brushing schedule and at the very least wrap my hair up at night and keep it clean and moisturized. But I do plan on staying on top of my brush sessions, it’s not as hard as I make it seem sometimes.
Tips for 4 weeks of growth(or 6 weeks) depending on how low you started and when your wolf begins; I strongly urge you to make sure you have a comb. Get one in the beginning of your journey just to be on the safe side. I say that from repeated experience as a coarse hair waver. Sometimes even a super hard brand new brush can’t get to that new growth at the roots.
Even with out the brush work I should have been putting in I still have a few ripples here and there. And for once I have a completely optimistic outlook on this wave journey this time around and within a month I plan on having progress I can be proud of. A month? Yes a month. In the meantime I’ll share tip and tricks I have learned and some reviews on some of the products I use. Bare with me readers. This wolf will not be in vain.
