Over the past few years as I have browsed natural hair websites, blogs, and watched YouTube channels I have noticed that there is something that a lot of long haired naturals have in common - simplicity. To be honest, I retained the most length when I stopped experimented and made my regimen as simple as possible while still keep it effective.
Some regimens of long hair naturals that I admire are:
Chicoro: Chicoro's Regimen on CurlyNikki
LongHairDontCare2011: LongHairDontCare2011's Regimen on YouTube
Chime: Chime's Regimen on YouTube
Kai: Kai's Regimen on ManeandChic
MsLaLa: MsLaLa's regimen on FOTKI
What I gathered from the individuals above is to just keep it simple. Wash when needed, condition regularly, limit heat use, and handle/style your hair with care. Of course each person's regimen is different but what is important is to pick and choose the elements for your regimen that work for you. Just because so-and-so did it does not mean you have to.
