Wash Day! Flexirod Set on Texlaxed Hair :-)

Hey There Girlies!
Flexirod Set on Texlaxed Hair, yay! :-)
Oooo, curls!! But I'm getting ahead of myself, LOL, we soon get the juicy part,
Let us proceed...


I did my Wash Day over the weekend,
it was pretty basic:

Co-washed my plaits with Mane and Tail Deep Moisturizing Conditioner;
Then Rinsed with Warm water;
Then Deep Conditioned with ORS Conditioner with a plastic cap under the Over Head Dryer;
I Then did an ACV Rinse;
Air Dried with my Oil Mix + Shea Moisture Coconut & Hibiscus Curl & Style Milk.

When 95% Dry I undid the braids - (I was a bit tired of them)
&
Did a bun for Sunday - Wednesday morning...

When I got adventurous and decided to try a FLEXIROD SET on my own for the FIRST TIME EVER IN LIFE!
yay!
Thanks to all the ladies from #thewashdayexperience for giving me the motivation to give this a try.

1. I made small sections with my fingers,
2. Detangled the section with my Denman Brush,
3. I then wet the section with water from my fingertips (dipped into a cup of water)
4. I then sprayed the section with Aphogee Keratin and Green Tea Reconstructor
5. Then applied a small amount of Aunt Jackies Baby Girls Curls Curling & Twisting Custard
6. Then the flexirod was put in!
THIS WAS THE TRICKY PART, it took quite a bit of trial and error, Aching back and shoulders, and frustration.
It took me 2 and a half hours in total to put them all in!
whew!
7. I then sat under the drier for 45 mins
8. Then put on a scarf and went to bed, FINALLY!
9. This morning, take down and separation of each curl, then a headband to complete the look, all done! :-)

RESULTS:



That's about it! I've been super busy as usual, but I'm glad I gave this a try!
Woot woot! I finally tried flexirods, can't believe it, LOL!

    1. Heya KLP! Thanks girlie, and YESS I can't believe I forgot to mention the sizes: Funny enough, only one pack says its size which is 1/2" (red) the yellow is slightly smaller than the red, and the green looks like 1/4" to me. I used about 30 in total. I should probably take a picture of them and post it. Thanks so much for the kind words! and thanks for having me :-D
