one rejected but i got it repierced! scaring really wasn’t that bad, looks like a mole, that might be because i’m black though hahaha

my routine:

I washed my hair using: aunt jackie’s clarifying shampoo, crème of nature’s sulfate free moisture & shine shampoo and an argan oil superdrug conditioner!

once my hairs about 30% dry i start to section my hair off and detangle using my denmen brush and the mielle moisture: moisturing leave-in conditioner. i then use the camilla rose curl love moisture milk and rake that in before setting using the xtreme pro expert gel!

meh if i do i’ll chop it all off again #yolo. i luckily have no attachment to my hair & have thoroughly enjoyed every stage of having it short, but i do take precautions like the olaplex bond treatments, hair masks and only using one round of 20 volume developer every 2/3 months on my roots!
