I'm Bummed that I Don't Have My Camera With Me (Protein DT)


So I'm rather annoyed that I do not have my camera with me tonight because I did my first deep treatment and I'm loving the results!

I used Aubrey Organics GPB conditioner (be careful when you go to buy it because there is a shampoo and a conditioner). I bought it at whole foods, but you can find it online for like $7 a bottle. It's a conditioner that's very protein heavy. I wanted to use it for a deep treatment (DT) because I was curious to see how my hair reacted to such intense protein levels and I just wanted to see if it would bring out my 3a tendencies a bit more since my hair had been looking more 2c lately with this horrible dry winter weather.

I ran several globs through my hair, scrunched some in, smoothed some on top, etc etc. Then I had an idea to take my spray bottle (mix of 1 part L'oreal Vive Pro Nutri Gloss to like 8 parts water) and spray all over to get the hair wet. Why? I was thinking that the protein could get into my hair more if I wet my hair somehow and then the heat that was trapped by the plop that I did would create some humidity, which my hair loves! So recap: I got all my hair covered in GPB, then sprayed all my hair with my mix of my wash out conditioner and water, then plopped for about 45 minutes.

After the 45 minutes, my wonderful boyfriend got me taco bell and while he was gone I did a cowash like normal and styled with KCKT and KCCC.

I'm very happy to say that I have very sproingy 3a curls right now! Too bad I don't have anywhere to go to show them off and to make matters sadder, I don't have my camera! Gah! The frustration never ends :P
