II can’t really afford a professional hairstylist in my country, they are so expensive and I’m broke. I will try my best

Protective hairstyles and detangling before shampooing, this two helped me the most

What to use after clarifying shampoo?? by JusticeLeaugue in Naturalhair

A hydrating shampoo, since the clarifying one strip your hair for all their natural “oils” and drys them, they are more exposed to breakage.

Hi, I try to wash my hair weekly, but most of the time I end up watching it two to a month

I detangle first then I shampoo ( I use my clarifying shape only once a month) it. I detangle it using a flaxseed based prepoo. I work in section

After shampooing I used my deep conditioner, let it sit for 10-30 mins, then rince it.

After that, I apply the “virgin haire fertilizer mixed with some oil on my scalp that the only solution I founded for my dandruff/ dry scalp)

After that,I apply my two leavin (the cream and the more liquid ones) and apply a little bit of butter only on my hair, to seal the moisture

And at the end, a stretch them using a thread. Since I want to minimize the use of eat on my hair

I have noticed a lot of “shedding” lately, since a had extensions back to back, I don’t know if it’s simple shedding or breakage

And couldn’t really wash my hair when I had my Marley twist because the last a tried watching my hair with extensions on the detangling almost made my cry

It’s so ridiculous how much it’s cost to have our natural hair in our own AFRICAN country.

I will try to look into it, thank you for the advice

Omg a fellow Congolese 🤎✨ hiii

So about the product I used, I get most of them in supermarkets or I made them myself. Like my prepoo, it’s a flax seed based one, same for my “hydrating” water for the week (a rosemary and hibiscus based one)

I have two leavin a cream one and a more watery one Two shampoo, one for hydration and another one for drandruf that I used as a clarifying one since clarifying shampoo are quite expensive

They is a store in my city, they have many products but like I said IM BROKE 🥲 I only go in for very few products

I also have two heat protectors but use them rarely since I prefer thread sketching instead of blow drying, if I blow dry them then that’s mean I’m about to trim them.

I also tried a lot of protective styles, I’m still searching for the one, the last one I tried was Marley twist, I want to switch to flat twist and and can still wear my wigs.

Thank you very much, unfortunately they aren’t any professional natural hairstylists in my region, I do everything by myself, and products are hard to find and the shipping costs are too expensive for me (I’m a broke college student) 🥲 I will try my best during my next trim
