Deep conditioning today with the purple herbal essence(fifteen min), I'm trying to get rid of that crap, it never did anything for my hair and for some reason i don't like the smell. But for some reason since I haven't been co washing and actually washing with shampoo the hair seems to take conditioner better so wont be surprised if its soft(except for the Burt's bees Brazil nut conditioner now that sucks) and rinse out and comb through with Aussie or Tresemme, they both give me awesome slip and able to detangle under water so either or

Welcome lisanaturally Glad to have you join us


OAN: I did an overnight dc with biolage matrix aqua-immersion creme masque. I truly love this stuff

 

[xu93texas]

I DC'd overnight with Joico Moisture Recovery Treatment Balm.

 

[felic1]

Deep conditioned Friday with AE garlic hot oil with wheat germ, hemp, and almond oils added. I have a lot of almond oil on hand and I figure why not use it. I steamed with this as well.

I also posted this in the Coffee, Tea, Ayurvedic thread.

Doing another fenugreek paste dc. This time I added a paste of coconut milk powder marsh mallow root powder, tupelo raw honey and slippery elm powder. Then I added some Wen 613 and some of my original fenugreek paste. I didn't add any more oils cuz I used some of practically every oil I own! WAYYYY too much!!

OMG!!! Could it get any more slickery?? Anyway adding those things took away some of that fenugreek smell. Every time I would sweat or drive with the windows down, I could smell maple syrup!!

Duchess007, how are you storing that so it doesn't go bad? Which component is the preservative? Do you use distilled water? Do you store your DC mix in the fridge after it's mixed up? Do you warm it up the next time you go to use it? Sorry for so many questions.

 

[TraciChanel]

Dc'ed for about 15 minutes yesterday morning with QH Super Cholesterol mixed w/ AVJ. Hair was nice and soft afterwards (wore a wet bun)!

I use the whole thing. I've never needed a preservative, because I have thick hair and I'm soooo heavy-handed. And I just use regular tap water, although you could elect to use more aloe or add vinegar instead. If making a single serving, I imagine you could half, quarter, or double the recipe based on your length and thickness in relation to mine. I'm APL.

Also, this started out as a recipe that used fresh ingredients, so you could also use fresh Greek yogurt, fresh raw honey, egg yolks, etc. Just know that you should eliminate the extra liquids, and that it will be VERRRY drippy if you go that route.
