As a straight natural, I keep my routine simple: straighten my hair, protect the ends, and wear it in a bun to minimize friction, tangles, and breakage from rubbing against my clothes. This is my weekly hair routine as I work toward my goal of waist-length natural hair by 40. If you're growing out natural hair, trying to retain length, or wear your hair straight most of the time, this routine is for you.
