My SO thinks my hair is a wig - Thanks Sareca

[joemerald]

Ok so as I said before I bought a half wig to help protect my hair for the cold and of course when I am too lazy to style, however, when I am freshly washed with nice shiny curls and all I always wear my hair out for a couple days (defeating the purpose but it looks so nice). For the last couple times, including this morning my husband asks, is that your hair or the wig. I am like duh it is my hair. Another time he was teasing me about my wig and it was my hair. All I can say is thanks Sareca, oil washes are the bomb. My hair is soft and shiny and very healthy. I am 8 weeks post and ng is still soft. Don't think I have to relax for another 5 weeks.

Jo.

I'm very happy for you.

My hubby jokingly says "You need to take that wig off," whenever my hair is super shiny. If you haven't tried mixing in a little castor oil ... start today.

Sareca, you know when you speak, girl, all ears perk up! So when you suggest adding castor oil, is that to the rinse or the ends afterwards as a sealant? Or both?
TIA

I stole this one from a couple ladies... They kept telling me to oil rinse with castor and I stalled. I wish I hadn't! I don't use straight castor oil because I find it less moisturizing than other oils. So mix half castor oil, half <whatever I'm feelin' at the time>. It's amazing. It's so good, I've been reformulating my red palm cream (now called red palm butter... don't ask) to include castor.

I am going to try this. I am natural and I have noticed that the oil rinses are really leaving my hair moist for a while. And with the cold weather coming in I am stretching my washes, yet my hair is staying soft.

Castor oil is the bomb, when taken in small doses, for me. I put it in my DTs all the time.

Aww, thanks. I'm just sharing the few things that work for me.
