Yesterday m/s with African Pride Olive Miracle Anti-Breakage Moisturizer(soybean oil) and Hot Six Oil.
 
Today was my wash day and most of the items I used contained at least one ceramide.
CON Professional Detangling & Conditioning Shampoo - sunflower oil
Proclaim Natural 7 oil - layered this over my deep conditioner
Proclaim Glossing Polish color & heat protection - safflower oil
I see Salerm21 B5 on the list but I don't know what ceramide it contains. I used it today as my leave-in.
 
Currently DC with queen helene & sealed the conditioner with walnut oil. I think next time I will seal with jasmine oil.

Alpha-linolenic acid is one of two fatty acids traditionally classified as "essential." The other fatty acid traditionally viewed as essential is an omega 6 fat called linoleic acid.

These fatty acids have traditionally been classified as "essential" because the body is unable to manufacture them on its own and because they play a fundamental role in several physiological functions. As a result, we must be sure our diet contains sufficient amounts of both alpha-linolenic acid and linoleic acid.

Dietary sources of alpha-linolenic acid include flaxseeds, walnuts, hemp seeds, soybeans and some dark green leafy vegetables. Linoleic acid is found in high concentrations in corn oil, safflower oil, sunflower oil, and canola oil.

Most people consume a much higher amount of linoleic acid than alpha-linolenic acid, which has important health consequences. (www.iforgottowritedownthesiteandnowicantfindit.com)

There actually isn't love. I put my Google chemist hat on and went to work. Sorry :). That made it over from the previous challenge list. Maybe an earlier release of that leave-in had it and they changed the formula recently. :shrugs2: Home tonight... Gonna do a little research on that list! HHG

oh...oh...i also used shea moisture baby ointment...which is awesome...and has safflower oil. i mixed that with the perfectly polished.
 
Did a very intense JBCO scalp massage and drench my hair in Sunflower Oil... All prepping for my poo wash in the am. Thinking about doing a curly set tomorrow and throwing on my Yankee fitted... Idk. Probably just gonna do a regular magnetic rollerset.
 
Don't know if I asked this here but:

For those that have used both Sunflower & Safflower Oil, is there a big difference between the two in ceramide content and/or how your hair responds?

Thanks
 
This am. I did a dry DC with ORS hair mayo, an egg and honey.

Then I washed with the creme of nature- green today. I have a 1 liter bottle. It's the only sulfate shampoo in my regimen; I don't know what I will do when it's runs out.

i am loving the shescentit avocado conditioner. It will probably become from of my staples. I used it last on my hair with AE garlic mask on my scalp.

I've been using a mix with grapeseed oil on my scalp every day. I found out a liquid gold oil (sulfur based) has grapeseed oil in it and I alternate it with my MN mix.

Should the shescentit it jojoba hemp shampoo be added to the list? It has hemp sees oil in it.

NappyRina I posted a little information about this up thread (on this page)... But for me, because Sunflower Oil has a higher ceramide content than Safflower Oil, which is rich in Linoleic Acid (suggesting a ceramide benefit), Sunflower Oil produces the results that I seek better than Safflower Oil. I like Safflower Oil because it is light, but I use my Sunflower Oil much more as I like how my hair behaves when I use it.
