Co washed today with Redkin Extreme Conditioner ( I went swimming monday night and it jacked my hair up ) tea rinse with oolong and green tea until a Moroccan and Aragon creme conditioner (to make up for drying of the green tea). Its still sitting on my head prolly been like an hour I dont really know, I got caught up in other things....

Now that I'm getting back into working out the way I like to (Zumba, yoga, sexy aerobics ;-)) I may try cowashing more often. It seems a lot of people with great hair cowash often. Now I just have to find what works for me. I think I'm going to get AO and hairveda specifically for that because pricing is good and noone seems to have problems with them! I would do cheapies but I don't really like cheapies anymore...
Sorry for the ramble...

Hairveda is great for Cowashing. So is Silk Dreams Destination Hydration, Curls Coconut Sublime, SSI Avocado, Claudie (and a few others).
They make great cowashers, and they offer 16 ounce sizes.

Yyyyyeeeeessssss!!! I loves options! I definitely want claudies jojoba and a few others; curls I can get on the ground so that's awesome! SSI avocado is dabomb so I will definitely use that; if all goes well with Silk Dreams Vanilla silk I will be doing a smedium haul next month! Sounds like I'm going to have some awesome staples!

You can. Try a more thicker moisturizing one after using a cleansing one and see if your hair feels better.

MUST ANSWER THE FOLLOWING:
State of hair (relaxed, natural, etc.)? Relaxed
Current hair length:MBL
Hair goal? WSL
How many times per week will you cowash? Every 2 days
What conditioners are you planning to use? Vo5, Aussie 3 minute, maybe add some Herbal essence Conditioner later on.
What do you hope to achieve by cowashing? Retention, more manageable, softer hair and new growth while I stretch.
How often (if ever) will you use shampoo? Maybe once/twice every month or so, usually never..but I'm using the Loc method so, I have to shampoo more often, because of the grease (softee mango butter) I use on my ends and hair.

I always thoroughly wet/rinse my hair
then add coffee/tea and squeeze out the excess
then add some oil
then add my cowash conditioner then put on a shower cap while I tend to showering duties...that normally includes 3-5 minutes of daydreaming....that extra time is what I missed so my brew only stayed in my hair for the time it took me to soap up an rinse. I then rinse and add tea/avj which is left in. It doesn't feel as yummy...

Babygrowth I have an oil blend of:
Wheat germ
Avocado
Flax
Hemp
Olive
Grapeseed
Sunflower
Vitamin E
Lemongrass
I mix 8 ounces which lasts me about 8 months (with daily use). .to give you an indication of how little I use during my wash.

I cowashed after my DC with VO5 Moisture Milks Passion Fruit Smoothie. This is my second cowash/DC for the week. I have decided to really focus on my scalp when I cowash and on my hair when I DC to prevent over manipulation when I'm washing it out. I'm working on ways to minimize the SSK's.
