Here is the hair regimen I use on my relaxed hair and the products I currently use on my relaxed hair. You can see more about how I care for my hair by viewing my Wash Day and Hair Update posts.

My current regimen and products

• Pre-poo with a mix made out of a rinse-out conditioner and natural oils 
• To wash my hair I use a moisturizing, sulfate-free shampoo most weeks; a deep cleansing or sulfate shampoo when I need to clarify my hair; a dry shampoo if I need a quick refresh between my weekly shampoos. I typically lather twice
• Occasionally use a rinse-out conditioner after shampooing for extra moisture
• Deep condition weekly using a moisturizing deep conditioner. If I feel my hair needs it I'll swap my moisturizing deep conditioner for a strength-based one
• I use my Hot Head Deep Conditioning Cap or my hair steam each time I deep condition 
• For some added oomph, I'll do a rinse with a green tea and apple cider vinegar mix on my hair to help with shedding and sealing the cuticle
• To dry my hair I typically do a roller set and use a heat protectant, leave-in, and hair serum
• If I'm not able to roller set I use the Revlon One-Step Hair Dryer and Volumizer or my blow dryer
• Moisturize and seal several times a week at night (see my moisturizing and sealing routine here)
• Baggy my ends 3+ times a week to add moisture (see how I baggy my ends here)

Products I’m currently using

• A rinse out conditioner, Jamaican Black Castor Oil, and Coconut Oil for my pre-poo mix

• Hot Head Microwavable Deep Conditioning Cap - use to add heat for pre-poos and deep conditioning
• Hair steamer - for the weeks I don't use the microwavable deep conditioning cap
