I meant to prepoo overnight, but I was too tired after getting off at midnight. So I got up this morning here's what I did:
- Applied MT to scalp first independently.
- Then combined almond oil, Giovanni Smooth as silk deep conditioner, rosemary & cedar wood essential oils, applied to hair and put on my on heat cap for 30 minutes.
- Shampooed with Giovanni 50/50.
- Oil rinsed with a mix of EVOO, almond oil, Jamaican Mango & Lime Island Oil, rinsed with warm water.
- Applied a mix of conditioners Ojon hydrating conditioner & Matrix...... and put on heat cap for 30 minutes.
- Rinsed with cool water. Applied Mizani ThermaStrength Serum as a leave-in & sealed with Castor oil.
- Sectioned & detangled. Did large 2 strands twists for drying purposes since Maxiglide is done on dry hair :/
- Sit under dryer 1 hour.
- Maxiglide hair in sections as directed. I was able to do half of head in 20 minutes, which is pretty good in my opinion for the first time ever trying this( I have never flat ironed before even when relaxed). Completed my entire head, touched up spots which I kind of missed.
- This is A GOOD THING!!! I think I will definitely have more styling options with my transition now. I plan to just wear a bun for work in the morning and play with my hair more after work!!!
- This got my hair nice and straight from the roots down!!! However by midnight the next evening, my hair started looking...fluffy...like it was humidity BUT THERE WASN'T ANY :(
