Wash Days; From Clay Treatment To Co Wash

I didn't want to use a shampoo so I went in for rhassoul clay treatment again. I mixed
Rhassoul Clay
Honey
Vinegar
Jbco
and applied it on my hair, covered it for some hours before rinsing. I followed up with the last bit of Aphogee 2 minutes reconstructor (I'm actually sad about that :'(:'()
I topped up with the keracare humecto which is also running out smh. Fortunately for me, what is left can last about four washes.
I twisted the hair to prevent it from knots and tangles when it dried.
Co Wash
Two days later , I used the Cantu Sheabutter curl cream to retwist the hair but that didn't turn out well at all so I Co washed with the We Naturals Hemp Oil conditioner. After that, my Auntie installed African Threading and my hair was very stretched upon take down.

I love the results of threaded hair! That's my most trusted and guaranteed method of heat free stretching so you'll be reading more escapades with this technique.
How was your wash Day?

Keratin, which hair is made of, is a strong protein that can break down with sun exposure, wind, pollutants, daily maintenance, manipulation, heat tools, and chemical treatments like permanent color.

Right from the wash day, my attention has been on preventing moisture loss. This means from the shampoo process to the sealing process, each step involves maximizing moisture. I probably shampoo once every 2 weeks but I water rinse very often. This keeps the moisture levels up as well as keeping the hair less dirty.
