yes you can, just let me put out i bought everything cold pressed, which i couldnt find in the supermarket. the 16 oz cold pressed bottles online were actually cheaper than the supermarket but then you'd have to factor in shipping.

empressri, what is the difference in cold pressed and what is at the store?
 
For my bang (only) pre poo,wash,RedKen Dc (ceramide)..Darcy Pumpkin seed conditioner to rinse (ceramide)...Sealed with Rice bran (ceramide) & Apricot mix...




Happy Hair Growing!
 
Did a pre-poo with rice bran and hempseed oil for 1hr; then after washing sealed with more hempseed :lick:
 
Oiled my scalp with Claudie's last night. I seal my ends daily with Moku Serum. I can not wait until the next leg of the No Buy Challenge. I want to use a pass to buy rice bran and hemp seed oil.
 
OK ladies just found this site and it has Walnut Oil on sale.. A 16 oz bottle is $3.10
33.3 oz is $4.96 and 1 gal is $17.44.. Not sure how long this sale will last but at those prices I don't even need Walnut oil right now and I was thinking about ordering some..

Some of the prices on their oil are outreagous.. Not sure about the shipping

Scratch that yall I just tried to see what the shipping is and its $14.99.. I mean shipping is getting crazy these days.. That was for the 33.3 oz size of Walnut oil

Okay so i started co-washing once a week. I added my hempseed oil to my nature's gate conditioner to see if it would combat the dryness im battling.
 


Just wanted to share a pix of my bang... Since starting ceramide & oil program..I notice my bang is fuller & holding soft silky curls..

pix 1 is now!
pix 2 challenge begin!

*Yes,I put the same cloths & hat so you can see the difference..(at least I see it)

So I bought some HOT SIX oil. I love it for sealing. I also use it in my sulfur mix, that I use on my scalp. It is not as heavy as I thought it would be, and it leaves my end so silky. Can you say KEEPER :up:
 
I see ya Lita! That bang is definitely thickening up!

Tonight I did a HOT with grapeseed and hemp oil. I'm too lazy to wash it out tonight I'll do it in the shower tomorrow morning. I think I'll do a twist out with my TWPMB and seal with my ceremide oil mix.

Awwww..Just shake it up..I love rose water..I would use it a final rinse/when I was on my henna kick...lol

*Make sure to store it in a cool dry area (low light/dark)

I've been spritzing with aloe and ceramide mix. Will HOT tomorrow with my ceramide mix after I henna/cassia.

I think my next ceramide oil mix will be just one or two oils vs a mix of oils. Probably grapeseed since that's the oldest.
 
I'll be glad when I use up some of my oils so that I can try rice bran and a few others I've seen mentioned within this thread.
 
After my henna/indigo session on Saturday I deep conditioned with Elasta QP DPR-11 mixed with Aloe Vera Juice and wheat germ oil for about 2 hours. Then did another DC with Aubrey Organics Honey Suckle Rose overnight. Rinsed Sunday morning and used my Protective Mist Bodifier as my leave-in.
 
Deep condtioned with trader's joes nourish spa and hempseed oil. My hair is feeling a lot less dry now, big difference when i added a weekly co-wash.
 
Welcome girlcherokee :) What ceramide goodies are you using?


Did an o/n pre-poo with hempseed,sealed with more hempseed after washing :yep:

I found this in my usual BSS for $2, and wondered how I'd never noticed it before.

I've been using it for about two weeks now, and my twists are sprung. A new main.

Its locally made, black owned (just little extra perks), and claims to use all organic products.
