Hair
routine, summer 2014
Current
hair health challenge
None
really. I have a full two months off with very little commitments.
Washing
routine
I WO “wash”/rinse
every morning in the shower. It’s too hot to not do so and too irritating to
have stray hairs tumbling around during the day, so I need a fresh and fixed
updo.
My washing
routine is adjusted after Hubby’s work schedule and goes like this:
- Tuesday: Nodosaurus (Deep conditioning of length)
- Thursday: Smurf (CO wash)
- Sunday: Nodosaurus (Deep conditioning of length)
Supplement
routine
Going
pretty heavy on the supplements at the moment
- 2 different
kinds of fibre supplements, adding up to
- 750 mg omega 3 supplement
- A multi B vitamin for the inositol (Said to help with dermotillomania issues)
- A random iron supplement from time to time during heavy flow-times
- Amino acid
supplement that adds
- Continuing with the pro-biotic supplement
- My trusty multi vitamin, multi mineral and herb-supplement Vitamun
Updos and
styling
I plan on
playing around with a lot more styles now that I have plenty of time for it. Hair
will definitely go up though: So irritating with a thick braid sticking to your
neck in the summer.
Leave in
conditioner and oils
My trusty
orange Sunsilk with some SPF mixed in. Also, whatever SPF hair product I happen
to have around.
Trimming
schedule
None
planned, but I was hoping to get my mother to trim it for me during the summer.
Other and
extras
I’m
devoting a lot of time and energy now I have the option to experiment with
skincare and bodycare as well.
Things to
improve
Be sure not
to overdo things! Benign neglect is the once and true king of haircare.Hair routine, autumn 2013
Current
hair health challenge
Lack of
time and energy! Working way too much and having way too many projects right
now.
Washing
routine
CO wash 0-1
per week. Having long hair is too forgiving for greasy hair: Add a bit of shine
product and no one is the wiser to just how greasy your hair is in that bun.
I'm not even sorry.
Supplement
routine
My holy
trinity of
- Vitamun multi vitamin and mineral
- Fish oil
- Fibre supplement
I started
taking 3 new supplements:
- A green tea supplement hoping it will help me through the flu-season
- An iron supplement for 1-2 days during my period when I feel absolutely deflated. I took iron supplements once before and I remember it helped my energy level
- And a pro-biotic supplement since I’ve been getting some stress-stomach issues lately
Updos and
styling
My hair has
been stuck in braided nautiluses a lot. I keep thinking I should try something
else, but I’m too tired to care in the mornings…
Leave in
conditioner and oils
My trusty
orange Sunsilk with L’Oreal extraordinary oil
Argan,
avocado, coconut and hemp oil in my oil library at the moment
Trimming
schedule
I haven’t
had a real trim since… april? And I probably won’t get one until I meet up with
Rockpaperscissorlizardspock some time in… December?
I’ve been
pretty good with S&D though: The randomised kind where I snip all ends
poking out of a braid.
Other and
extras
I have lost
a bit of weight which I don’t mind, but it does add to my worry that my diet isn’t
too great and I’m not getting enough protein. I should devote more energy to my
diet and sleep, but its quite hard to find the time for it.
Things to
improve
Even though
I’m very busy (And quite frankly stressed) I could do SexySmurfs or Nodosauruses
when I come back from work, as long as I rinse them out before bedtime. I tried
doing a Nodosaurus overnight but I just don’t have the energy to get up earlier
to rinse properly, even if its just 5-10 minutes extra.
