2011 Cowash Challenge--September 1st through December 31st

I co-washed today using cream of nature argon oil cond and then sprayed a little motions nourish leave in cond in my hair. I also did sort of a big chop...see my big chop thread or post (whatever u would call it lol)
 
Cowashed with Lily of the Desert Aloe Conditioner.

You wuld think that it would be great, right? The most widely known aloe gel/juice brand making a conditioner sounds like it can't go wrong. Well, it did. :ohwell:

My 3c hair liked it. The 4a tolerated it and the 4b was like "Oh,that was nice. Can I get some conditioner now? :) "
 
cowashed with giovanni deeper moisture. haven't used it in a while. rediscovered that I can work it into a lather, which i love! felt closer to shampoo, without that stripped feeling! followed that up with AO GBP left on for a few minutes and a cool water rinse. yessir, feeling fine right about now :)
 
I would like to join. I started my own personal co wash challenge on the first (I didn't see this thread until yesterday) and have been co washing daily since then. I may have missed one day. I'm trying to use up product so I usually use the same conditioner until it's gone.

I'm definitely going to continue to co wash daily until the end of this month and if weather and my body permits, I may try to do that until the end of the year.
 
Co washed with Back to Basics Jasmine Curl Defining conditioner. It was a little to thick for my liking right now so I will probably use something else tonight.
 
Oil rinsed with castor oil then cowashed w/HV 24.7 condish. Ummm, it is too thin to follow a castor oil rinse. Had to use Nature's Gate Aloe Vera condish.
 
@divachyk After Relaxing, before Hendigo'ing or if/when I feel build up. :yep:

I normally don't have much build-up because of the types of products I'm using.

I rinse really well before Cowashing, and the Cowash Conditioners I use tend not to coat the Hair and are Cone-Free (or Natural/Handmade).

So, I'd say for Me, maybe every 4,6,8 weeks (if that).:ohwell:

Since my scalp issues have gotten under control, I am back to co-washing (although much less frequently- 1x/week). I co-washed today with Tresemme Naturals Moisture Rich and Joico Moisture Recovery Condish :yep:
 
Just co washed with V05 Champagne Kisses. Will be using this daily until it's gone. Sealed with some castor oil, but will be switching to Shea Moisture Strengthening Elixir until that's gone.
 
When I detangled my hair Saturday morning prior to shampooing, i had MUCH fewer flakes on my shoulders, which is huge for me! (My hair stays flat twisted to my scalp under a half wig all week). I think the two co-washes I did this week have really kept the buildup off my scalp :yep:

Co-washed again Sunday morning after going to a smoky bar Saturday night. Used V05 Moisture Milks - Passionfruit Smoothie.....man did it feel great :lick:
 
Going to co wash later with Prairie Naturals Silica strengthing con (just realized I'm on a silica bender..as I sit here drinking Bamboo leaf tea which is loaded with silica):grin:
