I’m in the home stretch of taking out these mini braids. I wasn’t feeling well today- I have a  migraine, so I didn’t get much done. I think in about 2 days, I’ll be done. I ordered some Ayurvedic powders from ebay. By the time my braids are out they should have arrived.

I’ll do a cleansing and clarifying bentonite clay wash. I think I’ve got a pretty  good recipe established so I’ll post that here when the time comes. After the bentonite clay, I use some cassia and shikakai powders for shine and strengthening. I’ll post the results.

I’m really looking forward to deep cleansing my hair (something I do before and after every mini braid set). This time around I used some oils with sulphur and the smell got trapped in my braids. It’s really driving me nuts. The sulphur also caused a lot of dryness. I DC’d last night with a moisturizing conditioner and my hair feels a lot better.
