@ZebraPrintLover Off the top of my head, I know Profectiv makes some awesome balancing moisturizers. Pretty much all of their moisturizers and leave-ins have protein and they're very moisturizing. I haven't tried a Profectiv product that I haven't loved. :yep:

I have a few CVS bucks that I can use to get me a Profective item. My hair isnt really picky so it should go well!

I'm sure you'll love it! :grin: Bublin mentioned a Profectiv moisturizer that has ceramides in it... I forgot what it's called, but it's in a gold-ish bottle. It stands out because their moisturizers usually come in jars.
 
Currently GHE/Baggying with the mixture I stated above:lachen::grin: Never-mind my appearance *stupid breakout by nose*
Of course one of my siblings is gonna call me something like Erykah Ba-don't. I think when it's time to sleep, I'll put on my satin bonnet too just because! :)

so...i was reading the natural haven blog, and i lucked upon a post about vaseline/petrolium jelly/mineral oil to seal hair. they were saying if hair doesnt seem to retain moisture and is very dry and/or damaged to give it a try. so i did and i like the results except it's greasy.....however i think i used too much lol. anyway, my question is, has anyone used this for sealing and can u baggy/ghe with it on your hair? I imagine it may not be effective since it's supposed to block moisture, right?? confused again...lol

Baggying tonight with a dab of WEN sweet almond mint conditioner over damp hair and sealed with EVOO. I will leave in overnight and see how it comes out since this is my first GH in 2 years.

Hmm, well back before I was natural and before I even "investigated" the products I used, I did use a mixture of petroleum jelly and glover's mane (an old recipe my mom got from her Gma lol) to seal my hair. It was DEFINITELY greasy but it surprisingly made my hair grow. Same with mineral oil-I've never used mineral oil alone, like it would be an ingredient in some oil blend and I mean I didn't experience any problems with it from what I knew then. I say use what works for you! Yeah if it's greasy maybe just use little bits. I've never baggied with it, so I'm no help there. Wish you success! :)

Ooh, I can't wait to hear how this goes! I'm a fan of almond anything lol and evoo of course is always great! Looking forward to your next post! :yep:
 
Neither can I MaraWithLove :grin:! LOL. I'm tempted to peak and see how it's going (had it in for 3 hours now) but I'm afraid I'll let out some moisture so I'll try to chill until the morning. I will definitely post results in the a.m.

Welcome lovestarr! GHE will definitely help with your goals, it's fawesome! :grin: You excitement is making me giggle. :giggle:

MaraWithLove I think the head wrap is cute! :drunk:

toiatoya I'm thinking that baggying plus heavy sealing just might work out good because the moisture that's in your hair won't be able to leave, it'll have nowhere to go but deeper into your strands... at least, that's what happens in my mind. :lol:
 
Moisturized with my love, Isha Cream. Sealed with Enso's Softening Serum and massaged Claudie's Elixer into my scalp. I'll be doing GHE overnight. :spinning:
 
well I have decided that I will continue to use the strong root on my scalp and hairveda whipped creme ends hydration. I also add some castor oil to my hair since it worked so well this past month.
 
Time to catch up! Friday nite in prep for henna - I used Talijah Bodyfying mist, mixed with AVJ to detangle, then plastic cap over night, and scarf. Does that count as a GHE? Saturday nite over night henna. Plastic cap, layer of saran, scarf, doo-rag (does that count?) Sunday nite, oiled scalp w/ Lenzi request, moisturized with QB Root burdock, sealed w/ some curls oil, plastic cap, wrap scarf, doo-rag
 
Baggy with Kimmaytube leave in, sealed with shea butter, potion on scalp. My hair came out really soft.

Last night, I just put some potion on my scalp with baggy, think it was softer with the kimmaytube leave in, but it is ok.
 
Have been baggying all day my aloe, glycerine spray mix. Will wash, condition and GH with Castor Oil.

Must admit I'm loving this challenge. Haven't had crispy hair for a while now.

Keep it up ladies.
 
MaraWithLove Thanks so much, hun! :hug3: How'd the GHE turn out?!

Prettylonghair Would you like to join the challenge? :weird:

Golden75 I'd say Saturday and Sunday were GHE days and Friday was a baggy day. :grin:

Seamonster I always have better results when I use some type of creamy moisturizer and an oil. The oil is okay, but creamy stuff is just better. :wacky:

~Vintage Queen~ That's awesome!!! Keep up the good work, chica!

(3) Same ol' thing tonight also, M&S with HS 14n1 mixed with Aloe Vera Juice and WGO/Coconut Oil mixed to seal.

I made my goal of 3x/wk going to hit my max for 4 days this week.

(4) Wasnt able to post last night but I made it to #4 for the week. I only used HE LTR LI no oil, in the baggy method.

tiffers, I was wondering could I just spray my hair with Infusium 23 (Protein) on my hair and just baggy it.....?:perplexed
 
Trying to play catch up. Not sure what I actually posted. So I believe I GHE'd 2x and baggied 3x last week. I will have the same goal this week. Tonight I plan to massage scalp with Claudie's Elixir, moisturize hair with hemp seed butter, then seal with my ceramide oil mix. Will use my hydracap, plastic cap, and finally my bonnet.

Someone asked what a hydracap was right? Basically it is shrink wrap for your head. You put one cap on and use a hairdryer to shrink wrap it to your head. The owner was on here advertising more than a year ago. You could get like a million for a really cheap price. Then if you did a review she sent you some for free. Once it got going good you couldn't buy them from the website anymore. You can buy them from Sally's but only in small quantities. Like 4 for $5. I'm probably set for life but I buy 2-3 packs every time I go to Sally's so I know I won't run out :look:.

I would love too!!
 
Still baggying every night but I'm starting to have a lot of shedding now.:sad: I'm not sure what's causing it. I'm away from home so I want to find something that will stop the shedding with out being stinky (i.e. garlic powder in my condish, garlic oil, etc).
 
Moisturized with Silky Soft Leave In, sealed with Claudie's Garden Oil and massaged Elixer into my scalp.

I'll be doing GHE tonight. :grin:
