Try using senna as your deep conditioning. It’s neutral henna so no color but all the pros of henna. It wraps your hair in PERMANENT protein. Makes hair shiny and fills in cuticles. So it makes your hair heavier which can help stretch your hair by weighing it down. It doesn’t change hair patterns but it can slightly change texture.
