Thoughts Behind the Scene of a Natrualista...: Do you have a hair schedule? or a styling schedule?

Thoughts Behind the Scene of a Natrualista...: Do you have a hair schedule? or a styling schedule?

Do you have a hair schedule? or a styling schedule?

Yes I said a hair/styling schedule! Here in the Natural Hair Community (NHC) we often speak about regimens and products which are very important, however, what about the schedule of events? For many of us in the NHC, we are still learning. I am 5 months post BC and having good and dare I say great hair days are becoming more frequent for me. But I don't just happen upon these good hair days, there is a lot of work put into it! But this lead me to thinking about schedules and when to do what! I am beginning to feel that I am falling into a rut; Monday-Friday I am doing good or or sometimes ok and on the weekends (when most of the fun happens) I am busy with my regimen and I may miss out on the fun or go in a bun (because wash day has been postponed)... so I need a better schedule. Here is my tentative schedule, I will work it and see how or if it works for me. Friday night: Finger detangle, pre-poo, wash and deep condish detangle.and style (for weekend) Saturday: wear out or braided, oil scalp, pineapple, Sunday: Remoisturize, rebraid if needed. Monday: pineapple Tuesday: pineapple Wednesday: Remoisturize, rebraid if needed, oil scalp Thursday: wear braids or out, and pineapple Friday: wear out and start all over again So, what's your schedule?
