Want Amazing Hair Growth? Try This Super-Nutritious Homemade HairConditioner

Yesterday I posted a story on my transition from relaxed to natural hair. It's wonderful and I would encourage you to try it out. But. It wouldn't make any difference to your hair if you do not follow up with hair treatment.
Conditioning your hair is a MUST.
Now, there are 2 types of treatments. Moisture treatments, and Protein treatments. Both are essential for your hair. A Protein Treatment is a treatment containing one or more protein-based ingredients that is used to strengthen and revitalize the hair.
A Moisture treatment provides balance to offset the usually drying effects of protein treatments.
I will break down what both treatments do for the hair in greater detail, but that will be for another day. Another post.

Today, I'd like to share with you a treatment I use for my natural hair. It's actually a combination of protein and moisture treatment. I love it, cos its super rich, and you can get some of the ingredients, right in your kitchen. Remember in my post on my natural hair yesterday, I wrote about kitchen concoctions? This is one of them. I came up with this home-made conditioner because, I had some of the ingredients available, and I did research on each of them, and found out how useful and amazing they are. So, here goes.

Naturalista Fashionista

See me forming fashionista too. Kikikikiki. Anyways, that's not what's important. What's important is that, I've embarked on a new journey. Yup. I've decided to go NATURAL with my hair.

My hair used to basically mark time on the same spot (tautology lol) that is, it just never seemed to grow. Truth be told, I never used to treat it properly. I would go to the salon and my stylist would ask, "are you getting a hair treatment", and I would say "next time". But that next time never came. And consequently, my hair would just go from bad to worse. Continue, more pics below...
