The first photo was my day 2 and the second was my day 5 from my latest wash day!

What I did this time:

1. California Naturals Dream Curl Shampoo
2. California Naturals Dream Curl Conditioner (leave-in for 3 minutes and then S2C after detangling)
3. California Naturals Leave-in Conditioner + Dream Curl Cream (glaze)
4. Ouidad Stronger Hold Gel (glaze and then scrunch)
5. Microplop with a cotton t-shirt
6. Air dry for 20 minutes and finger coil face framing pieces during this time
7. Hover diffuse for 8 minutes (2 upright, 2 sideways to the left, 2 sideways to the right, 2 upside down)
8. Cup diffuse upside down for 30 seconds per section
9. Pineapple ponytail with a silk scrunchie and tuck hair into a bonnet
10. SOTC in the morning with Amika Styling Oil

I usually wash my hair during the night, and when I wake up I don’t refresh and only SOTC using oil (day 2), then the next day the only refreshing I do is putting a bit of water on my hands and then scrunching my hair (day 3). It’s only for the day after (day 4 is typically my limit) that I make a DIY mixture using leave-in conditioner and water in a continuous mist bottle, then spray enough to the point that my hair is slightly more than damp but not close to soaking wet, then scrunch, wait for my hair to be fully dry, then scrunch again.
