2012 DC Challenge Part III (July 1st- Sept 30th)

Jeez got lost! Posted on wrong thread last week :grin:

All hooded under drier
10 mins - mtg mix
mint shampoo
colour rinse 5 mins
30 mins hard Aphogee
20 mins - vo5 frizzy hair + olive oil
Colour condish 2 mins
 
Question: I want to do a protein treatment with an egg. Do you use the entire eggs : whites and yolk? I just want to do it previous to a mositure dc
 
Today is pamper my hair day again!! Lovely Ayurvedic tea rinse and deep conditioning with Keracare Humecto and olive oil may throw in some JBCO and honey.
 
DCing with Deva Curl Heaven In Hair. I love how it softens my hair. I misted my hair with water, then coated my hair. I took small sections, misted my hands with water and worked it into the section. Then I but a bit more on the section and smoothed it in.

Now sitting under my heat cap for 45 minutes. I will mist my hair with water afterwards and work the conditioner into my strands a bit more before rinsing.
 
Today, I'm going to DC with Joico Intense Hydrator with heat for 15 mins and w/o heat for the remainder to DC for a full hour. Need the hydrolyzed keratin for my porous strands.

Sent from my 4G Thunderbolt using LHCF app
 
Which One n Only DC did you get the one in the tube or the jar?
I have the one in the jar its the hydrating mask;)

lamaria211 Sorry I just saw this :) ...it is the one in the jar. Do you like it? I havent tried it yet.

7/11--did a Aphogee 2 min keratin tx in the shower then used Silk Elements Mixed silk for 30 minutes under a heat cap and rinsed in cool water. That stuff made my hair feel like butter! I twisted my hair and it has been super moist since...I blame the twists, but now that I think about it, Ill bet te DC must have made a difference too.

I usually only DC once a week, but I think Ill do 1-2 times a week depending on time and my mood lol. Im gonna do it tonight or in the AM and try the One N Only argan oil hydrating mask this time.
 
Lesliec ive only tried a small amount on a little piece of my hair it felt great thou (slip and softness) im very anxious to try it on my whole head. Please give us a review as soon as you try yours:)
 
Dcing right now with Beautiful Textures under AOGPB and I think I might've found a new love. I've been meaning to go under the heat cap for the past hour.....
 
Just rinsed out ORS replenishing after 8 hrs :look: hair feels bomb :yep: This is the best my hair's felt so far since moving up north. I think I'll do this again next week, make it an o/n DC or something.
 
I didn't plan on it, but I slept overnight with Matrix Biolage Hydratherapie Aqua-immersion Creme Masque (Deep Moisture for Dry/Very Dry Hair) in my hair.

First time using it and I was amazed from the moment I put it on. The slip is incredible! My fingers just glided through my hair :blush:

I bought it on a whim when I went into Ulta to purchase Joico's Moisture Recovery Conditioner since the liters are on sale this month.

I also purchased the Hydratherapie Conditioning Balm and cannot wait to use it; also purchased a liter size of the Detangling Solution and that worked great on my niece's hair. After 5 days, her hair still smells clean and her ends look and feel super-moisturized.

I do plan on purchasing more from this line :yep:
 
Ladies hello I have a question???
I would like to use an Avocado to DC what should I mix it with? And its a moisture treatment right not protein?? TIA
 
Couldn't find the Part III link last week (dingy me). I did however, DC w/kanechom Karite Butter for 1hr. Tomorrow I will do a cassia treatment along with S&D to keep major splits at bay.

@lamaria211 The one n only argan mask is NICE...love it--the scent, the consistency, the slip, the softness...definitely a keeper!

DCing with ORS replenishing, no heat. Coming up on 2hrs, not sure when I'm gonna rinse...

@halee_J ORS Replenishing is probably the only hair product Ive consistently used for several years. Such a solid DC with the perfect moisture/protein balance. I just restocked with a big bottle of it. I had been buying the packs bc I have been greedy and not wanting to buy the big bottle bc I wanted to spend the money on something new I havent tried. Cant ever go wrong with old faithful and Ill always have it on hand :)

@Forever in Bloom
That looks yummmmy! Are you relaxed or natural?



My name is Leslie and Im a DC whore lol.
 
Leslie_C It really is a great DC, I've tried many others but this is the only one I've consistently used for nearly 4 years now. Perfectly balanced, fantastic slip -although the slip was even better before the formula change but still pretty good. I love that it works well without heat. I buy the big bottles too, wish they came in gallon sizes I go through tht stuff pretty quickly.

Have you tried the Cream of Nature Argan oil conditioner? I find its similar to ORS :yep:

Hiya Leslie_C :wave:

I'm all natural - going on 5 years, so I've tried my share of dc's. Joico Moisture Recovery Treatment Balm is the only "DC" I have tried that continually impresses me. Now I have two good dc's to choose from :grin:

This is what I deal with on a week to week basis

from last year, but I don't take pics of my hair that much anymore

i'm working on the rolls :giggle:

My hair is a little longer now (last pic was taken 1/2/12), but I still treat my hair the same way - washing/combing in sections, deep conditioning, and protective styling like a maniac.

This was way more than you asked before, but I thought I'd share... a good dc makes my hair so much easier to work with.

Forever in Bloom O M G hair porn lol! Your hair is drool worthy! You should have never posted that, now Im going to be stalking you down with a million questions bahahaha. Do you have a fotki or blog or anything? I love your hair! The texture, the shine, the fullness, the length....:spinning:

Is that joico balm part of the liter sale or is that a thick one in a jar? What about the regular moisture recovery? Is it good too? I bought some AG fast food and AG recoil as part of the sale...but Ive been debating on trying kenra moisturizing or joico moisture recovery as well. Im so obsessed with conditioners...its ridiculous...I have to smuggle them in the house to avoid the side eye from the hubby lol.
 
Hello everyone. Im a newbie here but i would love to join this challenge @halee j. I plan to wash and dc tomorrow for a couple of hours with either AOHSR or AOWC.
 
Oh yea. Im also gonna prepoo overnight with a suave conditioner with honey, olive, coconut and some other oils i have.:grin:
