Letter to Keracare Humecto…

Thursday, April 22nd, 2010

My dear beloved sweet sugar hearted Humecto,

Taking my pen tonight to explain how much I love you! I missed you so much and I am so happy I restocked you on my last trip to London…

Our latest experience was, once again, a blowing out moment! How comes you leave my hair so, so buttery soft?

Could it be the water and glycerine that are your first ingredients?

Or maybe the panthenol, the extracts of nettle, pink, burdock, chamomile, marigold, rosemary, ivy, amica, lime, corn flower, wild chamomile, water-cress, and garlic???

I don’t know… Please tell me…

Anyways, I won’t complain, because as you say, you are here to help me correct and prevent moisture I lose due to exposing my hair to chemicals and thermal styling appliances…

And yes it is so true that you penetrate deep within the hair shaft to hydrate and humectify my hair…

I was so happy I kept the last few drops of my latest bottle until I restock…

You always tell me those superior moisturizing results you provide will help prevent dull, brittle, breaking hair and split ends.

And that’s my only concern with you: I would use you all the time! Risking the moisture overload! Yes I would!!!

People say you are expensive, I say you are quality!! They pay for pricey wines, I pay for moisturized nourished hair!

BSC week 1 : update

Wednesday, March 10th, 2010

Tuesday the 9th of March

It’s been a week, my last wash day was Saturday the 6th and i did my henna treatment (click here to watch My henna gloss pt 1)

So after the Henna treatment on this Saturday, i cowashed with my H.E LTR, and i instantly felt my hair stronger, moisturized… But it only last until the next day… :-( back to breakage !

Feelings : quite intrigued bcz usually my henna gets my hair stronger and for a good 4 to 5 weeks, so i am not disappointed, i just feel like i still have a lot to learn from my hair…

Towel blotting vs T-shirt drying

Monday, March 8th, 2010


Towel blotting: I pretty much think we all do that, lol. Towel blotting is when put our towel on our hair to absorb the excess water.

T-shirt drying: the exact same thing but using… an old t-shirt (hey I never said dirty t-shirt, loool)

A lot of people started to use a t-shirt to remove the excess water in their hair as opposed to using a towel because of the material of the towels. They say the cotton in the regular basic t-shirt is mild and thus not rubbing on our hair, making it frizzing, electricity static etc…

My opinion:

BSC (breakage shedding challenge) : my routine

Sunday, March 7th, 2010

Tks so much for all of you that have entered my challenge, i will keep my blog update 1 week (basically every sundays) so that you have a journal of what is happening, feel free to share & comment here how your challenge is going

So just as a base, here is what my normal hair routine looks like

  • Prepoo / DC overnight 1 x week with Indian products
  • Co-wash or Shampoo hair one conditioner 1 x week
  • Moisturize & seal 1 to 2 x day
  • Baggy ends when ever needed
  • Clarify 1 x month
  • Henna glosses every 4 weeks no matter what
  • Relax every 12 weeks minimum

Now as i am having this breakage phase, i have to change things a little to get my hair back to normal, & then be able to go back to my normal hair routine, so here is what i am going to do until May the 3rd, end of the challenge !
