Sew In Take Down

Well it's been about 3 weeks, maybe a little over and my sew in is out. I know the original plan was to keep it in for 2 months but I missed my hair and wanted to take it out sooner, honestly. I'm currently 5 months post working towards my 6th month and hadn't combed my hair in 3 weeks due to the sew in. Detangling wasn't as bad as I thought it would be, but it did take an hour and a half to completely detangle my hair. The steps I took are as followed:

  1. Removed the tracks of course
  2. Saturated my hair with moisturizer, detangler, and coconut oil
  3. Applied a shower cap and conditioning cap and sat under the heating cap for about 20 minutes or so
  4. Proceeded to detangle my hair one braid at a time
  5. Once I detangled all of my hair I sectioned it in 4 sections and combed it through again
  6. Braided four sections and put my bonnet on
The following day I:
  1. Did a protein treatment using mayo and eggs
  2. Washed my hair thoroughly with Giovanni Tea Tree shampoo
  3. Used V05 Clarifying conditioner
  4. Rinsed excess water out and applied Silicon Mix
  5. Washed silicon mix out with Giovanni Tea Tree conditioner 
  6. Did an ACV rinse and rinsed
  7. Cowashed with Aussie Moist
  8. Applied leave ins and placed in a wet bun
I enjoyed the sew in it was a nice change and I will consider doing another one but for now I'm moving on to Half wigs. I'll have a review on the hair that I used coming soon. Enjoy the pictures and have a Happy New Year.
