Slow Progress .... BUT Progress None-the-Less

Another snow day here in West Virginia..... We received about 10 inches of snow yesterday. It was so peaceful.... Fletcher of course LOVEs the snow.....

We had a great time playing and jumping around!

I am now a little over 2 months dye free. I have noticed more silvers peeking and more of a natural color. I am still at a loss on what the actual greying pattern and true natural color. BUT I am super excited and attempting patience.

I am still going to do a BIG chop at the end of March. I hope to have a few more inches of growth by then. I have also been browsing Pinterest for ideas and have started a board -My Grey Hair Inspiration. 

I have been applying weekly coconut oil and lavender oil treatments. Today will be a baking soda wash with a white vinegar rinse this will clarify and remove any old hair product.

Peace!!

Coconut Oil to Naturally Condition Your Hair

I hope everyone had a great holiday yesterday. Ours was SLOW and peaceful and you couldn't ask for  better than that on a holiday.  I received a gift card from my DH from a local spa Verbena Day Spa and I am super excited to get a few facials next year!!

I am sitting here writing this post with a hair full of coconut oil, a little lavender essential oil, a hotel shower cap and a ball cap to keep warmth. This combination is a great way to naturally condition your hair. I added a little lavender essential oil to help with growth. I am getting impatient with my silvers not coming in fast enough.  :)

Here is a great link Bonzai Aphrodite to get some wonderful tips and recipes on the coconut oil concoction. Browse her blog she has some wonderful insight.

You do not have to put alot of coconut oil on your hair to get the benefit a few tablespoons will do and the oil will harden after you make it. All you have to do is rub it between your hands and it melts super fast and then run your hands through your hair. Easy Peasy! I haven't had a problem with the oil washing out of my hair and it is super soft after the treatment.
