HAIR and FITNESS CHALLENGE

I've already started, but you won't be far behind! Recently I have been researching goals that I want to reach as far as my hair and body, and have found some great challenges. Ultimately I put my own twist to them. Join the challenges with me, record your progress and let's share with others!

Hair Challenge: 12 Inches In 12 Months
                       
                         Each month I expect to gain at least an inch of hair. Start by making a growth chart t-shirt or   buying one. If you are making one, you want to make sure that your chart is correct so that you can record your progress as close as possible.

                           Weekly:

                          1) Pre-poo with essential oils (Vitika, coconut, rosemary, olive oil) etc.

                          2) Shampoo with little to no Poo in at least four braids (Shampoo of your choice)

                          3) Deep Condition, let penetrate for minimum of 1hr. to overnight, finger detangle under water (Herbal Essences Hello Hydration or Conditioner of choice)
                          4)Rinse under cold water, seal with oil and/or leave-in conditioner. Distribute a dime size
                             amount all over hair, paying special attention to the ends.
                       

•                 Keep hair moisturized
