2011 Cowash Challenge--May 1st to August 31st

I really want to co-wash my hair, but since I'm away at a company training for the week and the sessions run from 7am-10pm I don't think I will have the energy to do so. I hope this bun last until Friday *side eye to that*
 
just checking in! i have started cowashing once a week with HairOne now. i keep my hair in big twists and wear a wig.
 
Cowashed the past few nights with V05 Clarifying conditioner. I like it so far. Doesn't leave my hair feeling stripped at all!

Cowashed last night with V05 Moisture Milks Passion Fruit mixed with EVOO, Peppermint Oil and Tea Tree Oil.
 
Hello ladies! I just BC'ed on Friday and would love to join...if it is too late, I can be an unofficial part of the challenge :lol: I would love to DC overnight to try to get the front part of my hair to attempt to curl SMH Any suggestions on good overnight DC? TIA
 
detangled with suave almond and Shea then co-washed with YTC. I didn't rinse out all if the YTC and sealed with coconut oil. My hair felt great! I really like the smell of that YTC. Thanks to whoever recommended I try it.

I don't know what will make your hair curl but what I loved was Silk Elements Olive DC mixed with coconut oil (overnight) :yep: My grass was soooo soft and moisturized!
 
Ive procrastinated and forgotten for the last month to post my pic. But I have been busy on the co-wash regimen!. I am currently in a sew-in for the past week in prep for a business trip to Florida next week. This was my starting pic I forgot to post.

I co washed last night with VO5 Moisture Milks with EVOO mixed in and I rinsed almost all of it out but left a little in and man my hair was super soft and non-frizzy, an amazing feat :)
 
I love that the condish I'm using actually lathers!

So I'm thinking if making a co-wash condish out of Jasmines Hibiscus DC. I'm thinking of just adding a little more water to it and pouring it into a pump bottle what do you ladies think?

Why not? I wouldn't even dilute it. I would "deep cowash" with it. I do this anyway when cowashing. I wash 2x. First, I wash concentrating on my scalp only. Rinse then cover all of my hair with conditioner and put on a plastic cap for the remainder of my time in the shower. Rinse with warm water and finish with a final rinse of cold water.
