Hiiiii ladies. I’m sure you’ve already guessed it was
my birthday yesterday. I should have put up a post but you know how birthdays
are with calls, messages and all. Anyways I had a fab day and showed me some self-love.
Lol!!!I was going to make a braids wig for my birthday but
didn’t have the time so I rocked a perm rods set instead.
My washday over the
weekend was pretty simple. Here’s how it went;
- Detangled my hair first with my fingers and then a
comb.
- Put my hair in calabar braids and washed twice with ORS HAIRepair Invigorating shampoo. It’s a Sulfate –free shampoo with Mint and
Rosemary for dry hair and scalp. Review would be up once I’ve tested how my
hair responds to it.
- Rinsed with warm water.
- Deep conditioned with Motions Moisture plus Conditioner, Ors
Replenishing Conditioner and Organics Hair Mayonnaise for 30 minutes with heat.
- Rinsed with cool water to seal in the moisture.
- Air dried and applied my leave-ins when 60% dry;
Mega Profective leave-in strengthener and Elasta QP Olive Oil and mango butter.
Sealed with coconut oil.

I used 21 perm rods all over my head. I applied
water as I installed to the parts of my hair that was dry because it took me
about 2 hours to install. I bought the perm rods in the packet from Wuse market
and I had a friend buy the one in the round container from London. Hopefully I’ll
put up a post on my recent product buys soon.
I loved how the curls turned out. Although, my
relaxed ends curled and my roots where more or less stretched. I made a side
part while installing the rods and I’m glad it still came out good. I couldn’t leave
the curls like that so I fluffed them with my hands and then a comb. Twisted one
side and pinned it and did a roll and tuck on the other side.
