Not a product arsenal as such and I am by far no product junkie. I tend to finish a product before moving on to try a new one. Keeps it all neat and tidy and logical.

I managed to stop all that breakage finally by doing a deep condition with protein:
2 x tablespoon castor oil
2 x squirts Organix Conditioner coconut oil
1 x squirt Joico K-Pak DPR
1 x Raw Egg
Mixed this up divided my hair into quarters and applied generously
I put on a plastic cap and wrapped in a towel for 2 hours while watched a film.
I think it was probably the castor oil that did the trick!
I wont trim my hair until I relax it next week and I will post pics of my new growth then with a nice trimmed straightened head of hair. I still refuse to use heat but I am so tempted especially as I have a wedding to go to next week.

So...if I attempt this, i HAVE to watch a movie in the mean time, huh?
I am working on a post called On a budget and in a rush, should be on by tomorrow.
This regime can be quite intense so I am trying to find things that people who arent that into the hair thing can use
Where did you find Jamaican Black Castor Oil here in the UK?
Hi there Mahoganyhues,
After much searching I couldn't find anymore on ebay but
