Today I have been learning about the balance between moisture and protein that healthy hair requires.

As I have mentioned before, I have suffered a bit of extra frizz recently. I started looking into the reasons why this could be happen, that isn’t a result of the products being used.

I have read that the moisture/protein balance can be a cause and be a bit tricky in redressing.

I did my usual deep condition this week and my hair is no longer responding in same manner. So I got thinking, maybe I don’t need it quite so much now. Research begins.

I am incorporating protein into my hair care routine to see if I have caused hygral fatigue, too much moisture. I have a root touch up booked though so this may cause it to rebalance…in theory!

The other thing I an considering that I have seen others mention is glycerine. Sometimes, this can cause frizz. At moment I am still transitioning so it can all change at a moments notice.

I’ll try to limit my deep conditions in time and/or frequency. Think I’ll only DC for an hour once a week from now on and see how that effects the frizz. Obviously, after the root touch up things may take a day or so to return to where is normal for now.

Today I had to go school shoe shopping. This was bad when I have a vast array of lovely shops to visit. I was in a dangerous place! And bought too many hair products! I’m meant to be on a product ban too. But there were so many good offers to be had! Superdrug had some of the curly products like Shea Moisture range on offer at a third off. Holland and Barrett had faith in nature on offer too, the dragonfruit conditioner may have fallen in my basket but I passed by the cheap xHC banana conditioner, as I do not need anymore! I did buy some more ecostyle gel. I love the olive oil one but thought I’d try the argan oil one. I haven’t really used mousse recently and favoured gel to see how that holds out.
