I have decided to restart my hair journey by removing more than three inches of what was left of my damaged ends. Now that all of my damaged hair has been eliminated, my goal is now to achieve strong healthy relaxed or dual textured hair with more length retention. Relaxing my hair less frequently (twice a year), is a good thing for me, and I have since gave up on hair coloring (permanent hair coloring). Rather, I use semi-permanent hair color that does not contain peroxide or ammonia, for it is safe on relaxed hair and therefore, causes no damage. My relaxer touch up is due next month on Saturday; following my touch up, conditioning and neutralizing, I will be applying a protein reconstructor along with a hydrating conditioner. This of course, will restore the protein that was lost through relaxer process, giving back my hair strength and elasticity. Healthy hair is what I prefer to have over long hair that has thin and damaged ends.
