Heatless

After 1 year (April 2012-April 2013) of not applying heat to my hair, I can say that I was able to maintain length, but not grow it. Therefore, this next year's theme will be protective styling. While I did enjoy wearing my hair straight, I would like to see how much I can grow over the next 12 months.

    

Oh! And that whole post-my-regimen-each-week thing was too much work for me. I realized it wasn't much of a regimen and I was just washing/co-washing/deep conditioning whenever I remembered to. But now I will follow a more strict regimen with:

• washing once a week, alternating between a moisturizing shampoo and a protein shampoo
• deep conditioning every 2 weeks with the protein shampoo
• LOCing ends Tuesdays and Fridays
• Co-washing every other Thursday

HOWEVER I'm already confused on how to do the washing with Marley twists. I was going to try a dry shampoo to keep them looking fresh but where will that protein come from? Help?
