💆🏽‍♀️🍋💦Wash Day Routine ( Natural Hair Edition)

Hey Lemon8 Family! 🍋🍋🍋 Here is the ultimate wash day routine for the natural girlies. 💅 Honestly everyone can use these products but it does wonders to the naturals. 💇🏽‍♀️ These products make your hair the softest it will ever be and feel fuller!

1. Palmer’s Deep Conditioning Protein Pack

- Put this on your hair first! Yes, your hair can be dry when you apply it. Massage it in! Put a shower cap on and leave it alone for a couple of hours. ✨Yes, I said a couple of hours✨ Bonus: This protein pack is less than $2!

2. Aussie Shampoo & Conditioner

- I don’t know what it is about Aussie, but they have me in a chokehold! Now the shampoo will remove everything from your hair but trust and believe me, once you put the conditioner on, you won’t be disappointed. Whatever that’s in that conditioner, came from the Gods! You hair will be so soft!

3. Aussie Miracle Curls Frizz Taming Cream

- PLEASE apply this to your hair BEFORE blow drying! You don’t need a lot. This really helps with frizz and it helps straighten the roots when blow drying!

4. Coconut Milk Anti-Breakage Serum

- After blow drying, go a head and flat iron your hair. You don’t need any other products while flat ironing! After you flat iron, put a quarter amount in your hand and massage through hair. Wrap it up and let the serum work its ✨magic✨ until the next morning!

... Read moreBuilding on my essential wash day routine, I know many of you might be wondering how to fine-tune it for different hair needs! Whether you have low porosity, relaxed hair, or are aiming to achieve that beautiful, straight look from your natural curls, here are some extra tips based on my experience. Tailoring for Low Porosity Hair: If you have low porosity hair, like I sometimes feel mine can be, getting products to penetrate can be a challenge. That's why I swear by the Palmer's Deep Conditioning Protein Pack – but for low porosity, try applying it to damp hair and then sitting under a hooded dryer or using a thermal cap for extra warmth. The heat helps lift the cuticles so all that goodness can get in! And while the Aussie Miracle Moist shampoo is fantastic, incorporating a clarifying shampoo once a month can help prevent product buildup, which is common for low porosity hair and can make it feel dull. Wash Day for Relaxed Hair: For my relaxed hair sisters, wash day is all about being extra gentle and focusing on moisture retention to prevent breakage. While my overall routine works, if you have relaxed hair, you might want to prioritize a super hydrating deep conditioner. Let the Aussie 3 Minute Miracle Moist detangling deep conditioner sit for a full 10-15 minutes or even longer. When detangling, always use a wide-tooth comb from ends to roots, and be mindful of your scalp to avoid irritation. Heat styling should be minimal, but when you do, always prep your strands with a good heat protectant. The 'Black Girl Wash Day' & Moisture Focus: For all my Black girls, we know wash day is a sacred ritual that demands deep hydration! My routine emphasizes products with proven moisturizing ingredients like the coconut oil deep conditioning protein pack. Coconut oil is amazing for penetrating the hair shaft and reducing protein loss. After rinsing, a good leave-in conditioner before the Aussie Miracle Curls Frizz Taming Cream can provide an extra layer of moisture, especially if you're prone to dryness. Look for products that combine the power of coconut and jojoba oil—these natural oils are fantastic for sealing in moisture and adding shine, helping to keep your hair supple and less prone to breakage. Safely Achieving Straight Hair from Natural: Many of us love to switch up our look, and my routine includes steps for straightening. The key to a safe and sleek result is protection and technique. Before blow-drying, ensure your hair is detangled and apply a generous amount of Aussie Miracle Curls Frizz Taming Cream to help smooth the cuticle and reduce frizz. When blow-drying, use a concentrator nozzle and work in small sections, using tension to stretch out the curls. After, when flat ironing, that Coconut Milk Anti-Breakage Serum is absolutely non-negotiable! It acts as a shield against heat damage. Use a lower heat setting if your hair is fine, and pass the flat iron over each section only once or twice slowly to avoid over-processing and damage. This way, you get that long, dark, and sleek hair look without sacrificing health. Common Wash Day Mistakes to Avoid: Over-shampooing: Only shampoo your scalp, letting the suds run down your strands. The Aussie Miracle Moist shampoo is gentle, but still, don't overdo it. Skipping Deep Conditioning: This is crucial for all hair types, especially natural and relaxed hair. Don't rush this step! Rough Detangling: Always be gentle, using a wide-tooth comb or your fingers, working from ends to roots. Neglecting Heat Protectant: If you use heat, even just a blow dryer, it's a must! The Coconut Milk Anti-Breakage Serum is your friend. Remember, listening to your hair and adjusting your routine to its unique needs is always the most important step. Happy wash day, everyone!
