empressri - I hope you are feeling better!!
I have also been sick since last week, with a sinus infection, sick as a dog, and SO kept saying 'Dang, you're hair is shiny and smooth!' I also had fallen on ice and hurt my back bad so the only thing I was doing was applying my ceramide mix and tying it up.I didn't even think about it til I saw your post.
Lita - I paid attention this time and I definitely noticed a shorter drying time under the dryer. I love that.

Just got done co-washing with Hempz. Going to use my usual leave in of Hempz, Castor, Aloe Juice. Instead of adding my usual WGO and sealing with Hemp Seed oil, I'm going to add Grape Seed oils. Then, I'll seal with WGO/HSO combined.
I've read that grape seed is a light oil. So that'll be in the leave in portion. Is Safflower a leave in, or sealant for you guys?

Nasdaq_Diva I have used it as both/Remember a little goes a long way with Safflower oil (because) it goes on lite & when your hair drys (if heavy handed) it will feel & look greasy..Just watch the amount you use/either way (leave-in or sealant) its great...

Thanks for the activity you bring in this thread.
So, so far my grape seed incld in my leave in worked well. Sealing with the WGO and Hemp Seed has left tons of moisture in my hair STILL! So much shine, moisturized coils.
I'm going to use my ayurvedic powders tomorrow, afterwards use the same leave in recipe and sealing oils as today. If my hair feels as often as it does right now then I'll know its no fluke.

Hey ladies! I my routine and products are pretty much the same BUT I went through my stash and found QB's Tea Tree & Grapeseed Therapeutic Pomade. Ah, grapeseed you say, well I used it as a detangler and found it much easier and soften my ends much more than plain ol' EVOO.

What ceramide oils/products will you be using?
Wheat germ and grapeseed oils
How will you be using them? (pre-poo, shampoo, DC, leave-in, sealing etc)
I'll be using them to pre-poo, added to DC, add to BT.
How often will you be using them?
I'll be using them weekly, and since it is going to be heating up...bi-weekly

Aireen - I am loving Hemp Seed, Walnut, and Safflower
Those are my top 3. Rice bran is excellent, also.

Does walnut smell nice? What about hemp seed?
Nice...? Well, the hemp and the safflower don't have too much of a scent, IMO. I'll have to really take a sniff of the Walnut and see. I'll let you know.

Yeah I'm using Saff. right now and it's really light with hardly any scent. Walnut I'm guessing would smell nice and nutty? LOL.

These ingredients look great
Glad you're liking it. I'm tempeted to try it but my hair probably won't like it because of the coconut oil. CO = hard hair for me

DarkHair Welcome!
Thank you for the warm welcome
I surely will mix my oils. I'm currently taking out micros, and I presume it will take me until Friday. In the meantime im putting Joico K-Pak on my new growth. Hopefully my order of grape seed and WGO will be in. Since I'm transitioning, I'll also mix mine with mango and shea butters, and coconut oil.
