I just started oiling my hair overnight before my wash day with grape seed and sunflower seed oil mixture. I am back in love with the shine of my hair again!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
 
I will snap a pic in the morning. I just 2 strand twisted my hair and tied it up!
Just got done with my wash session and I used GSO to seal with before throwing my scarf on.
 
Sealed HairVeda Whipped Cream in with GSO. Hair is shiny, soft, and fluffy. Twists look shiny and juicy. I'd upload a pic, but website is acting up.
 
I have started putting box braids in my hair and I remembered DominicanBrazilian82 wanted some pics posted. I apologize it's not a very good one. When I start the back I will take a pic of it. I'm currently using Blue Magic with Wheat Germ.

Doing a steam prepoo with Gleau and NuNaat Chocolate Mask... Will follow up with ORS Aloe (haven't clarified in over a month... Maybe longer), Loreal Sulfate Free, Aphogee 2Min, SSI Coco Creme and a roller set....
 
Have been really bad with posting but Ive been really consistent with my ceramides,will post a pic after my TU in a few weeks.
 
I don't think I've updated in a while. Ive been keeping up though. Been using SD wheat germ conditioner, loreal eversleek smoothing conditioner (sunflower oil), and SSI avocado conditioner regularly. Hemp seed oil prepoos before almost every wash day. And im seeking out more DC's with ceramides.
 
sorry, not the best at pics, I never seem to capture the shine in a photo especially if its not straight. I continue to use ceramides daily; grapeseed, davocado, hot six (my fav) and walnut. Just hemp and wheat germ. I use the oils as a prepoo mixture with a couple drops of pepermint essential oil (came up with that trick when I realised my walnut oil was going a bit rancid and too cheap to throw out lol). I'll also use after a wash day and to seal ends.
 
Ok, I had to compress my photos for this web page. Ceramide shine on 4 a/b lowish density hair. Yeah baby!

Used HH Happy Hempy on my length last night. I am also seeping herbs in hempseed oil in order to make another sulfur mix.
 
Moisturized with SSI Brazil Nut Curly Buttercream <------ Hemp Seed Oil. First time use and I must say it smells and feels silky. Once I put it on my hair, it softened and filled in moisture holes! It also has Panthenol :lick: which my hair adores. I'm going to bed flexi'd up. Nitey Nite beauties.
 
omg, used hemp oil Sat and Sun night and my hair is still moisturized. My beloved hot six oil has been given the pink slip and hemp is my new love. :grin:
 
hey peeps its been a while still maintaining with the same products and reggie. now that its warmer no lco method just regular moisturizing and sealing.
 
Moisturized with HH Greek yogurt & applied pomade shops Ceramoist Ceramide condition pomade on ends...

Happy Hair Growing!
 
My hair loves Wheat Germ and Rice Bran Oil. It doesn't know Hemp Seed Oil is about to be the highest bidder though….
 
@MileHighDiva

I use it for its smoothing effect. Hempseed oil leaves my hair shiny and smoothes my strand like no other oil. This is why I prefer it when straightening or rollersetting (I'm rollersetting tonight). Other then that I used Dabur Vatika Oil or Njoi Creations ayurvedic hair oil. As for it penetrating the hair shaft, I have no idea. I just love it as a prepoo lol.

HTHs

EnExitStageLeft, does Hempseed Oil penetrate the strand to prevent hygral fatigue? If not, why are you using it to pre-poo? I'm too lazy to investigate/research for my self! :look:
Click to expand...

MileHighDiva EnExitStageLeft It seems that Polar Oils (Coconut, Jojoba, Avocado) are better pre-poo oils to limit Hygral Fatigue; over Fatty Acid oils (as we have come to know ceramide oils to be) which, in relation to Hygral Fatigue, are more suited for sealing to block out excess moisture (to avoid swelling and shrinking once hair is dry and styled).

PART III​

We are halfway done with this year ladies and zooming into our third stretch of the challenge. I am so excited about the things I have gained from using ceramides. New Challengers are always welcome and we encourage you to post about what ceramide products you are using and even those that don't have ceramides that are used in conjunction with those that do!

There are PLENTY of Gorgeous :gorgeous: heads of hair in here and tons of Hair Porn Stars :look:. Join us as we :cowgirl: into the third part of the 2013 Ceramides Challenge.

Calling all CHALLENGERS! I need a favor, how about we up our ceramide sessions to one extra per week. Whether it be an extra M/S, steam, pre-poo, DC, etc. Lets finish out the summer and go into the fall with fabulous, luscious and healthy hair. Are ya'll with me? A special surprise for the Challenger that is all about ceramides in this third part.
