UPDATE (12-27-2006)-**I have deleted the photos of the products that I no longer use.** Also, I am no longer using the Denman D83. It stopped working for me.


My routine has changed a bit. I wash, detangle, and retwist my hair once every 4 weeks. In between, I do conditioner washes 2-3 times a week. If I feel my scalp is dirty, I will use shampoo as well. Anyway, I start by leaving my hair in two-stranded twists (done on wet hair) for about two weeks. Then, I wear my hair in a twistout. After a few days, I do my hair in dry twists from the old twistout, which lasts for up to a week. Then, I undo for another twistout. After a few more days, it is wash/detangle/retwist time again!

:Suave Daily Clarifying Shampoo (used only when I feel that I have build-up)

**At night, I sleep on a satin pillowcase.
**I only trim once in while. My method is tedious, but I check the individual strands and when I see a knot or split end, I just trim above it.
**I work out 4-5 days a week, and I take in lots of protein and water daily.
