I'm convinced that it's possible to have a simple regimen and still have healthy hair. It has to be because I am sick of spending hours and hours on wash days. Having wet hair is so annoying when it's cold. So pre-pooing and dcing drives me crazy. So I'm cutting them out until I get a heat cap or am proved wrong. Here's the regimen I'll be trying in detail.
Wet hair
Separate into 8 sections
Detangle in sections with fingers and olive oil
Rinse
Shampoo in same sections
Condition
Comb out any remaining tangles
Rinse
ACV rinse
Towel dry
Moisturize
Seal
Diffuse on high speed low heat focusing on roots
There's reasons for all the changes besides cutting down on time. I decided to do the oil rinse before shampooing because it is so much easier to shampoo thoroughly on detangled hair. It was so so so hard to shampoo on tangled hair. And my hair gets really tangled!
I'm adding the ACV rinse because it closes the cuticle and restores ph balance. I'm hoping this will help my hair hold moisture longer and make up for not DCing regularly.
Lastly, I decided to start diffusing for the sake of my scalp. It takes so long for my roots to air dry and I've noticed that it really irritates my scalp. Skin is not supposed to stay wet for that long. When the weather warms up(if it ever does), I will switch from diffusing to fan drying. When its warm outside, fan drying works surprisingly well.
