Pre-Poo

I actually meant to do this follow-up to the vid that's up on the collab channel for the longest. (You know..some people would rather reeeeead it lol)

I pre-poo once a week before I wash my hair. ..(Yes I shampoo wash my hair once a week.) (Yes. I put shampoo wash. You'll see why in later days. Lol).. Pre-Poo is basically a deep conditioner...but in reverse. The only difference is I put more products in my hair than I do my deep-conditioner because the excess is going to get washed off anyway.

As you guys could see from the video...I put 4?...5? products in my pre-poo mixture. The 2 main products that I would recommend using is a conditioner (protein or moisturizing) and a cream moisturizer. (Do not rinse your hair before applying!) The point of a pre-poo is to moisturize dry, brittle hair inside the strand before the shampoo process...which of course strips the strand of its moisture on the outside. Its a great way to use up hot oils, protein conditioners, and old conditioners you havent used yet. It's also perfect for anyone who has taken out braids or a weave and their hair can't stand to go under water and soap right away. You can leave it on as long as you want. If you're in a hurry 30 minutes...if you're lazy like me, overnight. Lol

The whole pre-pooing process has helped to make my hair softer to the touch and more manageable. I don't have to moisturize on a daily basis and it's very easy to maintain my relaxer/new growth. (I'm actually thinking about "stretching" my relaxer this month...we'll see.) I've also been noticing less shedding, and my ends arent as brittle and prone to knotting up.

Disclosure : Don't...DON'T expect immediate results. In addition. If you haven't already, focus on a hair regimen that works for YOU. You can't expect to just do this routine and abuse your hair afterwards and expect great things...That's NOT going to happen.
