I don't see how or why people would do this...too much time.


I could never wash my hair in the sink. All of the flipping/combing the hair forward to wash/condition and then back again would leave me with a head full of breakage, tangles, knots and dreads.
 
HITTY!

Washing my hair in the kitchen sink. Where have 'I' been?! Smh..
hmmm...this is giving me ideas. Ideas that my SO may not like but oh well! :lol:

Hit:
Kinky Curly Curling Custard!
- I avoided buying it for the longest time because of the price, but it's soooo awesome for my wash and gos! I even went swimming the day after I used it and my hair was so soft while I was in the pool.

Misses:
Cantu Moisturizing Curl Activator Cream
Cantu Coconut Curling Cream

Fantasia IC olive oil gel
These smell far too strong for me to use daily. I really wish I'd smelled them before buying :ohwell: The Cantu products weighed my hair down too much and left it kinda sticky and greasy. It got better when my hair fully dried but the results weren't the greatest.
The fantasia olive oil gel made my hair harder than the regular gel does
 
Hit
Bask Vanilla Whiskey Repairative Hair Soak: Left it on for 30+ mins while soaking in the tube. My hair was soft and felt stronger. It is definitely a light protein/balancing conditioner. I deep condition 2x a month and will alternate between this and CJ Repair Me, using them 1x a month each. ETA: a little goes a very long way. This 8 oz jar should last for at least a year.

Miss
My WnG: My hair is hanging lifeless. No volume, no style. It just hanging there looking awful. I am so tempted to just rinse it out, but don't want to waste the product I used. I might braid it this night for a braid out tomorrow. I cannot go to work like this.

divachyk Hi! I wash my hair in 4 sections,big twists,run the water across the back part first,I use clips to secure it...Just turn my head left/right..I make sure my products are lined up on the sink,in the order of use...Makes the time go really fast,leaving room for longer Dc's...
