Absolute Detox...

Hello and how's your hair today? I have good news... I'm joining the NO POO MOVEMENT. I'm going to put my hair through a lot of stress soon as I want to texturize, dye my hair all brown then dip dye it. This will obviously do plenty of damage so I'm going through a strengthening (no poo) phase - I'm not going anywhere near my straighteners, I'm not using any hair or skincare products that contain chemicals - I'm going all natural. Here's a list of products and habits I've ejected, and what I've replaced with. I'm detoxing my body completely so I can be ready and look fabulous for the summer!!!

Firstly, HAIR WASHING

As we all know, shampooing isn't really good for your hair. It strips away all the good oils, and if you shampoo often, your hair will get greasier quicker as it is trying to compensate for lost oils. I've taken out shop shampoo completely, and reduced the amount of times I wash my hair to once a week. Your hair will feel horrible at first, but then it will balance itself out after a while. I've made my own shampoo recipe which is all natural using shea butter and castile soap (so lovely, Google it!), and you will feel the difference ever a period of time.

MOISTURIZING

I hope you guys are moisturizing your hair, even if it's with a part water mixture (at the very least). If you aren't doing so, I might break down and cry for you. It is so important to moisturize your hair as it protects the hair shaft from heat damage and makes you hair smoother and glossier. I rub a small amount of cocoa/shea butter, or any good natural oils I have and rub through my wet hair after washing. When I blow dry, the oil is spread evenly and gives my hair a fabulous shine :)

DEEP CONDITIONING

I've already done a post on this but I cannot stress enough how important it is to do this regularly  Every other time I wash my hair I do this and will make such a difference. (Click here to see post)



NAIL CARE

I recently bought some Sally Hansen Hard As Nails Treatment, it's so good and I've seen such an improvement over a few weeks. Check it out, and along with regularly creaming your hands, cuticles and nails, your nails will be strong and sturdy in just a few weeks (no word of a lie, please believe me).



FOOD

Believe me when I say I love food. It's amazing, and tasty and just all things wonderful. However I've had to put aside my favourite snacks for a while and take up some good healthy eating. It's good to detox and clean out your body - from the inside.

 I've started to eat fruits and porridge for breakfast (see photos) and you might not notice a change at first, but then after a few weeks you will notice your hair being shinier, your skin healthy and have a glow, and feel all round fabulous. It's so worth it people, so put the chocolate away ;)


Hope you guys are able to carry this out, and your motivation should be that hot summer bod!
Check y'all later ;)
