greenandchic I usually whip at room temperature, making sure its nice and soft. I've also tried melting it first, but it I find doesn't whip well, it stays kind of runny and not creamy.

Not sure if anyone posted this, but SheScentIt products are FULL of ceramides and they are having a 30% off Black Friday sale :)
 
Ceramides have really changed my hair ladies. My hair is softer, shinier and smoother... And I've only noticed this change since I added ceramide rich oils to my regiment. I did a ceramide-rich DC tonight with WGO and Sunflower Oil and my hair feels so good. I'm so happy with how my hair is regaining it health, weight and texture.
 
After prepooing, shampooing and DCing, I used GSO as my main leave in to twist my hair for the night.
 
added hemp oil to prepoo,also to my Garlic Dc

Ive also been sealing nightly with GSO.:yep:

I make it: raw shea butter whipped with hemp, wheatgerm and rice bran oils for the ceramides, along with a little castor, almond and jojoba.

Sorry I made you repeat this. I finally went to the DC thread and seen that you posted it there also.

Thanks!!!!!:grin:
 
I will be sealing with GSO once I am done with this wash process tonight.
 
Put a little hemp seed on top of my DC under a cap. Warmed it up under the dryer, then let it sit under a towel for about an hour and a half.

Using Nourish oil to seal.
 
So I haven't done much with my hair for about a week. Last weekend I was in NY and this weekend (and the week as well) was my birthday (30! Yay!) so I haven't given my hair any love. But I did sneak in a M&S just a few minutes ago :). Moisturized with My Honey Child Caribbean Hair Creme and sealed with sunflower oil.
 
The night before I sealed my hair with GSO and sealed my ends last night with it. My hair is super soft and not greasy.

That's what I love about GSO. It really penetrates my shaft and leaves no greasy residue behind.
 
Sealed my hair with a Shea/Cocoa butter that has GSO in it.
 
Spritzed Aphogee ProVitamin Leave in (wheat germ oil)
 
Sealed my freshly washed hair with GSO.

Thanks for sharing I also just CW and after reading this post I did the exact same thing I just mixed in a little EVOCO and put some leave in on top. My hair feels great: )
 
hemp oil added to oil prepoo,also layered my hair with same mix for dc
 
I was not officially in this challenge but I have been using ceramides to seal daily. Sistawithrealhair did a video about Napa Valley Naturals GSO. After looking at her video and seeing her results I decided to buy some of this oil and wow it is amazing. I have been using it on my hair which is relaxed and my daughters who is natural. The oil is light weight, it does not feel greasy, and it makes my hair feel very moisturized. Not only is the oil awesome but the service from Napa Valley is excellent. I placed an order this past Sunday evening. The order shipped out on Monday and delivered via Federal Express today. It was well packaged. I purchased 1 gallon of GSO, some organic EVOO, and some organic safflower oil. I hope this challenge is renewed for 2013 because I am ready.

I highly recommend Napa Valley Naturals because of the quality of the oil and the excellent service.

I'm about to leave work in a few and I plan to soak my hair with my mix (hemp, rice bran, safflower, mustard, jbco, amla, brahmi) and let it sit til tomorrow and then wash. I've amped up my ceramide usage a little lately and my hair is loving it.

This DC is the bomb I may only use it when I start experiencing breakage because it does a good job at stopping it.
 
Happy Thanksgiving ladies :). So I did a shampoo wash with CON Sunflower and Coconut Moisturizing Shampoo and currently steaming with Silicon Mix Bambu DC mixed with GSO.

Happy Turkey Day!
