    I always say, "If I can't eat it, it's not going in my hair!" Try fermented rice water {FRW}; with orange peels for scent, and pure aloe vera gel {AV}. There are many tutorials on here on how to make each regimen. Btw, do not throw the skin of the AV plant away, boil it, let it cool, then squeeze the excess water out of the skin, put orange peels in it, and refrigerate. I spray that daily on my hair. My hair has been flourishing since November 2019, when I started using the FRW and AV. Edited 8.28.20: Today, I'm going to let the AV skin sit in room temperature water for one week, instead of boiling it, & get the nutrients from it that way. I'll update y'all.

    Washing my hair weekly didn’t work for me as I lost a lot of length manipulating my hair (because you have to detangle the hair on wash days) and dealt with a lot of tangles/single strand knots. I’ve now started washing my hair every 2 weeks and keeping it in a protective style like twists/braids. I only remoisturize every 2-3 days if my hair is in a puff. So my new natural hair method is very low manipulation. It’s weird because like you, I’m used to always wearing my hair out but my goal is to retain length. So this is what I have to do.

    Try rosemary water for your itchy sculp. I used to suffer from an itchy sculp too, and no feeling could beat that after wash peace, so I never could wear my hair in braids. But I needed a break from the constant washing because I have quite the wash day routine 😅. So I use the rosemary to at least wear braids for two weeks ( I do them myself) and it really keeps the itch away, and I have notices it has given me a dark tint to my hair, which I am really enjoying. But rosemary water is really helping me keep my sculp soothed and my hair strands moisturised.

    Please do a video on how you do your twists cuz they look professionally done and I really want to learn how to do that cuz anytime I do twists they are so loose and they don’t even last two days and they are loosened
