**2013 Ceramides Challenge**

Covered my hair in Njoi's Ayurvedic Hair oil (grapeseed) and let it sit for the day.

I've been sealing with Hydratherma Naturals Oil.
 
Relaxed W/ Moisturized W/ Optimum care salon collection.
Moisturized W/ Optimum care salon collection hair lotion.
Sealed W/ GSO.
 
Sealing with macadamia, sesame, grape seed, and wheat germ oils (alternating). Also using indian hemp pomade on my edges and ends, which contains sweet almond oil, etc. Will be ordering rice bran and sweet almond oils this week...and restocking on my hemp seed and sesame oils.
 
Prepoo'ed with a mixture of Hairtrigger Hair Growth Elixir and Hempseed oil today,I like :yep:.

I shampooed and DC'ing with Souped up SD Chocolate Bliss as we speak (I added grapeseed, macadamia nut, and wheat germ oil).

My couple of my leave ins will also have ceramides:

Tropic isle Living JBCO Serum w/ Argan Oil (Wheat Germ Oil)
Phyto Phytokeratine Reparative Serum (Artificial Ceramides)

Still sealing daily with Grapeseed oil and still loving it.

Ceramides are a hairs best friend! :yep:.
 
I grew an inch in 3 months. I take vitamins (multi, msm, bamboo silica, iron). I was using Bumble and Bumble BB Curl Conscious shampoo and conditioner with ceramides. I keep my hair braided. I texlax every 6 months. I have slow growth but will continue on. It's better to have my hair be healthy.
 
Yesterday I DC with MD olive and wheat berry protein DC has WGO, used my oil mix, sealed with HH hemp nostalgia
 
Please add me to this challenge... I have been going hard and heavy with ceramides for sometime now. Atm I have a GREAT dose of wheat germ oil added to my daily application of mega tek (use this every day since 1-22-13) and my hair has gone from a nl cut on dec 9, 2012 to fsl march 16, 2013. My mix consists of mega tek, reg Jamaican castor oil, olive oil, lots of wheat germ oil and pure argan oil (from lotioncrafter.com). I GHE every single day since 3-23-13 and my hair is saying "THANK YOU"!!! It would be crazy if I reach APL by Sept...and that's what I am gunning for!!! Btw, I am long term transitioning so pretty soon my ng will outnumber for 5 inches of texturized hair...
 
Today almost everything I used had ceramides. Don't feel like listing them all but I used at least 5 products with GSO, WGO and others in them...
 
Pre-poo'd with SSI Banana Brûlée DC (cotton seed), SD WG Conditioner and Gleau Oil. Will poo wash with SD Go Moist Shampoo, DC (under heat) with SD Vanilla and SD Chocolate mixed together and roller set @ 5am because I fell asleep! *This post is extremely edited at 4:30a. FML

Still going strong with my ceramide rich oil blend for oil rinses...sealing with gleau as well as rice bran oil and Using rice bran oil on my face at night as well as mixed with coconut oil as a body moisturizer:yep:
 
Gosh i haven't updated for a long time

Awaiting my Hemp seed oil and Wheat germ oil. Stopped using AO conditioners due to cost lol....will start using them again in may/june

Have started using afroveda power pump cream..has wheat germ oil in its ingredient list

:)
 
I have been faithful to sealing with my grapeseed and sunflower seed oil mixture for a while now. No real interest in trying anything else, I even use it on my face as well.

Its light, doesn't weigh down my hair and it gives it such a great shine. I use the travel size spray bottles, spray some in my hands and rub through my hair focusing on my ends.

One of the best things I have learned about on LHCF to date.
 
Since using products with Ceramides in them I've noticed less shedding and softer new growth that I can comb through now. Love it. So I will continue alternating between my Silicone Mix, Miss keys 10 n 1, Seda products. I also want to try L'Oreal Advanced Haircare Total Repair 5 products. I heard good things about them.
 
I haven't really been experimenting with anything new...just been sticking with my grape seed oil. I mys say though, the Redken deep conditioner I've been using as a protein DC is very nice and a new staple and it contains cermides. I mentioned it a loonnggg time ago.
 
Ive been using Phyto Phytokeratine Serum (artificial ceramides) and have notice to significant difference in the health of my ends. They are a lot more resilient and shiny. I've also notice that cermides make my hair extremely smooth, well ceramides with an emollient on top (usually castor oil). LOVIN' THIS CERAMIDE LIFE :grin:.
 
Still going strong with the ceramides tho nothing new going on, still using my whipped ceramide shea butter, has WhGO and HSO oils in it. Keeps my hair moisturized for days, when I rollerset/blowdry I also add a dab castor oil+hso mix to each section.
 
I am still using my same products that contain ceramides. My hair keeps a nice shine and I don't have to moisturize often. If I use anything new, I will make sure I post it so you can add it to the list.
