Would you share your routine and product info with me?

Mamacurl3

Please:oops:
I'm new and overwhelmed by the amount of info, routines, products etc. I'm not sure where to even start. I think that my hair is 3a/3b and I want to start using some new products.
Also, how to use the products. Do you use more than one at a time? Combine products? I was checking out the curly concoctions it all went over my head
Thanks much for your help:)

Hi there!
I'm a 2c (on top) 3a (underneath) combo and here's my current routine:

CO Wash with VO5 condish
CO with Aubrey Organics Honeysuckle Rose or Trader Joe's Nourish
Rake through a pea sized amount of [buylink=http://www.curlmart.com/Oyin-Handmade-Whipped-Pudding-p-353.html?utm_source=naturallycurly.com&utm_medium=text-link&utm_content=curltalk-post-text&utm_campaign=oyin-whipped-pudding]Oyin Whipped Pudding[/buylink] and [buylink=http://www.curlmart.com/AG-Recoil-p-24.html?utm_source=naturallycurly.com&utm_medium=text-link&utm_content=curltalk-post-text&utm_campaign=ag-hair-cosmetics-recoil-curl-activator]Re:Coil[/buylink] (mixed in my hands until they are coated with white!)
Scrunch in three quarter-sized blobs of LA Looks Durahold gel (orange color)

I don't have pics posted yet, but I got a digital camera for Christmas so I will soon!

This is what I have been doing the past few weeks.

Co wash with Suave Tropical cocnut condit.
Co with Aubrey Organics HRC (leave in)
mix small amount of [buylink=http://www.curlmart.com/Curly-Hair-Solutions-Curl-Keeper-p-28.html?utm_source=naturallycurly.com&utm_medium=text-link&utm_content=curltalk-post-text&utm_campaign=curly-hair-solutions-curl-keeper]Curl Keeper[/buylink] /[buylink=http://www.curlmart.com/AG-Recoil-p-24.html?utm_source=naturallycurly.com&utm_medium=text-link&utm_content=curltalk-post-text&utm_campaign=ag-hair-cosmetics-recoil-curl-activator]AG re:coil[/buylink] and scrunch in
The quater size gel in 3 sections of hair I haven't found one I love yet, trying [buylink=http://www.curlmart.com/DevaCurl-Angell-p-57.html?utm_source=naturallycurly.com&utm_medium=text-link&utm_content=curltalk-post-text&utm_campaign=devacurl-devacurl-angell]Deva Angell[/buylink], Biolage Gelee, HE Set me up

Also once a week I coat my hair in Abba Nurish leave in and wear a silk cap or scarf to bed. My curls like the extra hydration.

I did just order a sample pack of Jessicurl produts so I'm gonna give them a whirl as well.

thank you both.
Can I ask what Co is?
I've always had luck with Paul Mitchell Super Sculpt Gel and Catwalk Curls Rock as far as hold goes. If that helps

My 'routine' might not work for you, but I'll share anyway.

I hate fuss, so it's very simple. I use a ton of Herbal Esscences TT condtioner (I'm talking bucket loads), and rinse with cold water. Then I scrunch, plop, and air dry. Done.

I don't use any gels or mousses, or god-knows-what on my hair, so you might not like it, but try it out some day. I save money, time, and don't worry too much about build-up.

Hope I helped.

Co is conditioner

curlybrunette, no fuss sounds lovely! As a Mom of three busy little kiddos, minimal fuss is right up my alley. I've tried no product, but my hair gets too fly away and fluffy, I think I need some product.

Thanks JLR
