embrance the change without worries ! srsly, the first day i started using my own "shampoo" i touched my hair and was like "hey, that shit is awesome" started like 2 months ago, and my routine? i just wash it like 3 times in a week, between washes i do nothing, but if i workout and im sweating too much, i take a shower and wash my hair too (i dont know why sweat makes my hair oily)

 

its like if i use a head&shoulder with menthol, i feel my hair soft, fresh and clean for some hours with head&shoulder, with my recipe of bicarbonate and vinegar my hair keeps soft and clean for days

 

That's pretty cool. You seem to be one of those lucky bastard who don't get to suffer during transition phase. But with 2 months only, it's still too soon to speak about it, scalp can be have such bitchy girl mood swings.

And you should be careful for those 3 washes a week (2-3 days interval). It seems like a bit too much. Sodium bicarbonate it's very alkaline and using it too much can cause hair loss in the long term. Its use should be restricted to once a week, twice the most.

You should try stretch the wash days by giving your scalp some finger massages between washes lol. It really works.

 

 

i have pin straight blonde hair. won't hold a curl or wave, ever. hair stylists won't believe me and start crying when they attempt to curl me hair

 

 

as for hair routine... dry shampoo is my savior, as my roots tend to get greasy and icky looking on day 2 after a hair wash. as for the hair wash itself, no conditioner, no silicones and if possible no sulfates. i have to baby my hair otherwise it looks like poop

 

Ahaha. My hair is like yours but the opposite. It can't hold a straight style for too long. After an hour or so waves start to appear.

 

I baby my hair too, I just do it without all that crap we've grown believing we have to use. The problem is our scalps get so comfortable with all the things we put in it that when we start removing it's a pain in the ass to get back to normal.

I see that with my kids' hairs, totally shampoo/conditioner free since day one lol
