⏳ Limited Access:

Co-washed with HE + AO HSR + Shea soap mixed in a spray bottle yesterday - fabulous clarification without stripping. Love this mix, will use it from now on to clarify. Went to bed with henna in my hair. Rinsed out and co-washed with Pantene repair and protect this morning. Fabulous softness even after henna, though I don't credit the pantene for that - I'm using it because I have to.... can't just chuck the stuff, sigh, hate waste! DCing right now with AO HSR. Will rinse out later this evening.
 
You know I can talk about Moist 24/7 all day and everyday. When I use other cowash condishes I feel like I'm cheating :lachen: because it meets all of my needs ;)!
Don't I know it. I have to go buy another pump top today. This makes the 3rd one so hopefully it'll be the charm. My dd takes the 24/7 to school to cowash with after gym class. I've turned my baby into a cowashing addict :spinning:
 
This wednesday coming I will cowash with V05 Moisture Milk mixed with a little honey and jojoba oil. :yep: I will let sit for 3 hours,and wash.
 
I was out and about yesterday, but I cowashed at my friend's house. I used Garnier color shield and tea tree oil.
 
i will be co washing tonight with devacurl one condition and also using that along with curly pudding as a leave in for my flat twists tonight.
 
cowashed today using Suave Humectant and Garnier Fructis Wonder Waves w/ 100% aloe vera juice and rosemary eo added....air dryed in scarf and ponytail.

Well at least you are exposing her to the good stuff. She's building those healthy hair habits early :grin:!
 
Last night I deep conditioned with Herbal Essence HH and coconut oil then poo'd with Silicone Mix and co washed with HE HH and my hair was so soft and pretty. I loved it!
 
Cowashed with a mix of JASON Biotin, wheat protein, castor oil, and ayurvedic powders. My hair felt STRONG especially since I was cowashing out a tea rinse.

The steam room sounds great. I may have to try that again! Your leave in mix sounds :lick:!!!
 
I cowashed last night with Aussie Moist and my hair feels so soft. I'm loving this challenge! My new growth is surprisingly easy to detangle.
 
CW last night with Yes to Carrots, Giovanni direct leave-in. Avocodo Butter moisturizer and Shikaki oil to seal and bunned.
 
Sooo, last night I pre-cowashed with some aloe out of the back yard and Amla oil left on my hair for about 40 minutes (15 spent under the dryer with plastic cap). I concentrated the aloe (slime?) around the edges and on my ends before dousing with 2 caps full of the Darbur Amla oil. I then rinsed out with some regular tea and co-washed with passionfruit VO5 moisture milks. Put some Rusk smoother and a little John Fried frizz ease on and air dried over night in a single plait with a satin scarf. One and a bun this morning (still a little damp)............I had a major major headache last night which may have been the aloe, I will try it one more time to be sure and if it is the aloe I will have to abandon that little attempt at creativity/diversity.
 
Cowashed last nite w/ V05 passion fruit smoothie.. left some in and wrapped my hair in a tshirt to absorb some of the water. Sealed w/ some coconut oil then did some bantu knots. Airdried overnite (it didn't dry all the way). My hair feels so amazing! Soft and shiny!! :yep: However, it looks a hot mess!!! None of my coworkers will give me direct eye contact!! :lachen: I think I'll wait til my hair is a bit longer to do bantu knots, cuz this is not cute at all! :lol: I'm working out on my lunchbreak though, so I'll get to cowash it again and put it in a wash n go ponytail.

:look: :look: Yes, that was me. :lol: I can't make it a whole day with a bad hairstyle!!!!

ETA: Ya'll don't forget NOTHING!!!!!!!!!!!! :lachen:
 
Cowashed this morning using Suave Humectant, tired of just plain and ponytail airdrying and braid outs....ending out week 14 of my 18+ week stretch, decided to try the cheat ponytail roller set (still airdrying though)....:nervous2:...wish me and my new growth luck...lol
 
I had a tiny bit of henna left over in the frige from Saturday, not enough for a whole head treatment, so I mixed it with a mix of brahmi, amla, kalpi tone, bhringraj and ginger powders and some leftover Miss key 10 in 1 conditioner and put it on brahmi pre-oiled hair. I left it on for 2 hours and cowashed it out with v05 free me freesia. Conditioned for 5 minutes with MT and AO GPB conditioners, now I am deep conditioning with Biolage Conditioning Balm mixed with AO HSR conditioner.
 
I've been cowashing every few days then making a bun or doing a twist out. On Saturday or Sunday i will be flatironing my hair as it will have been 6 weeks with no heat. i'm ready for a straight style for a few days. After that i'll be back to cw'ing :yep:
 
I have been co-washing using VO5 Moisture Milks and Suave Naturals Vanilla Conditioner. For the past two days.
