My New Boo- Eco Styler mixed with Coconut Oil & bugs

It was so hot today it was a huge reminder that summer is almost here. Summer means two things wash and go’s and bugs! Yea about the bugs …I came home today…. just a pit stop because I had to go back out to get Â Joe from work…and on the door that exits to the garage.. there was big old croakin’ lizard (that’sÂ what we called it in Jamaica) on tha freakin DOOR!

Ok so LizardsÂ aren’tÂ bugs but still! Damn!…. so I threw a box at it.. you think that joker left that door? I was like.. ‘oh!.. oh ok… so you just gonna chill like IÂ didn’tÂ just heave a big old box with all my muscles at you?.. I see you’ ..
he was like.. I see you too Bi@tch I been here allll winter..and its hot today… you aint seen the last of me..what!>?

Really!! I cant with the bugs, IÂ don’tÂ care where I am from.. I just cant.. honey on the phone with the exterminator people and my dad is bringing me some sulpher from the Jamaica.. is on like a muther up in here.

*sigh*
my wash and go:

I amped up my workouts this week so my hair has been rather sweaty which means co washing more often and as it gets warmer it becomes almost a staple throughout the week. My cowash routine has changed somewhat see below:

Regimen:

*Â separateÂ dry hair into four, apply olive oil

*co-wash each section with Tresseme Moisture Conditioner – loving right now

*Leave some conditioner in each section – some ladies may opt to wash itÂ out completely, IÂ don’t!

*out of the shower apply KimmayTube Leave in to each section ensuring the section remains wet with my spray bottle

*Apply a little grease to the ends (this has been optional for me because my kimmaytube leave in seems to work just fine by itself) but I like to seal my ends just a little bit.

*Apply whipped ecostyler last – My new Boo.. O EM GEE where in the world have I been.. so I have been reading blogs and facebook and noticed that a couple people mix their Ecostyler with some oil! Can I say it took my eco to a whole nother level. Me likey.

*Let it air dry in the sunshine

This regimen takes me 10 mins out of the shower tops! if that much.. I like to actually wash and GO.. not wash, spend 30 minutes applying a bunch of stuff, diffuse, move hair around.. then after a long time then…Go… Â Â Â simple and quick is always better.

For the Ecostyler Mix:

I had a half jar of Olive oil Ecostyler Gel to which I added some melted coconut oil. I mixed the two with a wooden spoon until it looked white and no longer clear green. (I did not measure ..I just used my own judgement I knew I still wanted some hold)

My hair dried today in about 20 minutes while I was out running errands…

Pros- it felt and still feels awesome..Â

Cons (kinda)- shrinkage.. IÂ don’tÂ mind shrinkage too much.

I intend to use this regimen throughout the summer ….. I always have the most growth during wash and go season.

(I wanted to do my curly look this week but I have been enjoying my workouts so much.. you know how it is!)
