UPGRADED HAIR ROUTINE

This is a sure plan for optimum growth before the end of the year. There is exactly two and half months left before the year ends. I plan to achieve at least three inches in that time, so I came up with a "routine" to keep me on track. Take a peek below. Keep in mind, I always do my hair at night-time.  Sunday: Wash day. Today is the day I wash away all of the weeks worth of buildup.

How crazy was I? Well I was doing my usual browsing through youtube and came across a youtuber who uses heat 3-4xs a month with no damage. Her hair journey is inspiring.  Check out her story:
