~~~2016 Delectable Deep Condition Challenge~~~

[Shay72]

Dc'd with J. Monique's Wheatgrass & Spinach dc today

 

[meka72]

Plan on using KBB luscious locks mask mixed with SD vanilla silk. The KBB iswaaay too thin and my hair needs more emollient, thicker conditioners.

 

[mzteaze]

Protein DC - Megatek plus Vatika, silk amino acids and JBCO.

I decided to sort of structure my hair repair for 2016 off of Cathy Howse using my own products plus a few other ideas. So will try doing protein DC on Sundays and Moisture on Thursdays.

 

[trclemons]

I would say yes since you are using heat with it..

I thought so too until I read this article saying I would need to add something to it to make it a DC, so I may add in some oil and call it a day: http://www.blackhairinformation.com...ing/deep-condition-using-regular-conditioner/.

Update: curl junkie curl rehab is AWFUL. It literally dries my hair out. I'm switching to GVP conditioning balm. Anyone use this? Reviews?

The GVP Conditioning Balm? I used it and liked it. It wasn't spectacular to me but I liked it.

Deep conditioning steam now with Joico Moisture Recovery Balm mixed with burdock root extract (thanks @Dayjoy !) and a bit of safflower oil mix.

Thanks. My hair LOVES the joico k-pak DC balm but it has cones and I'm trying out the CG method for a month to see if my dryness is secretly coming from cones and I was hoping that product would be comparable.

I'm trying to use up my stash and get back to the basics so last night I used a generous amount of Kerastase Elixir Ultime mask. It's all gone and I probably won't repurchase. The best thing about it was the smell...

I have 4 or 5 more mediocre dcs that have to go. Next week I will try to get rid of another one.

@Prettymetty
I thought you STANNED for Kerastase! Are the other mediocre DC's Kerastase, as well?

I'm still a stan, but that was the weakest link in my opinion. For the price tag I expect mind blowing results every time. Elixir leave in is liquid gold, but the poo and mask get the thumbs down.

I just bought Cristalliste, Chroma Captive and Maskeratine last month. So far Maskeratine is the only keeper. I have only used each one once so I will give the other 2 another try.

Dced today with Hairveda Sitrinillah. Forgot how nice this stuff makes my hair feel.

About to go mix up my Alter Ego Garlic condish with Vatika and JBCO.

DC today with Keracare Humecto and Silk Elements Kera Minerals with SAA, Honeyquat and a couple of drops of Garlic tincture. My hair was so soft and very moisturized.

This morning I prepooed with Mizani Moisturefuse mixed with aloe juice and castor oil for 30 minutes.

Then I put Kurleebelle almond shea butter shampoo right on top of the prepoo, detangled and rinsed it out.

Next I DC'ed with matrix conditioning balm mixed with Mizani Moisturefuse conditioner under hooded dryer for approximately 30 minutes.

I'm about to hot oil rinse with a castor and sunflower oil mix and rinse it out and will be adding Redken anti-snap leave in sealed with sunflower oil. Put my hair back in three big celies, wig it and done for the day.

I haven't been in here a while.

Today I shampooed my curls and deep conditioned with Organics Hair Mayonnaise for an hour under my heating cap. Then conditioned with L'Oreal Total 5 Damage Erasing Balm for about 20 minutes. My hair feels like butta!

 

[mzteaze]

Used Roux Porosity Control condish before protein.

Did my protein DC using a mix of gelatin, 2tbsp CD Fortifying Conditioner, SSA, Vatika and JBCO. Sat under dryer for 30 min. My hair felt amazing afterwards.
