Moisture, Retention, Reduced Breakage, Manageable New Growth, Easier Detangling, Shiny Soft Hair

Come and steam with me.

The New Year will be here and gone before you know it. Don’t let it go by without realizing the many benefits of steaming your hair. I am ready to steam my way through the New Year. Will you join me?

The only rule is to try to check in at least once weekly and share your progress with us. Progress pictures are encouraged but not required.

The benefits of steaming include:

2. Increased Shine
3. Increased manageability of new growth

I'd like to join! I recently bought a steamer based off of everyone's reviews and I loooove it.

1. How often you will steam? Once every four days
2. What method are you using to steam? LCL stand up steamer
3. What products will you steam with? Deep conditioners with my oil mix on top.

I'm under the steamer right now with SSI Moisture Riche on 3/4 of my head and Hairveda Sitrinillah on the other 1/4. I looooovvveeeee the SSI but I think I use too much when I DC on dry hair which is my main form of application. I will repurchase to use only after I shampoo.

This was my first time using Hairveda. It's very thick! It seems super moisturizing but was a little lacking in the detangling department. I need to figure out how to use it because I have 2 containers and was hoping to make this my main deep conditioner.

I think both conditioners would be awesome heavy leave ins for a wash and go.

 

[divachyk]

I'm in! I pretty much steam weekly. I will do my best to keep up with posting in this thread.

 

[sexypebbly]

I'm in. Been steaming since Nov and its awesome. I will steam once a week with my professional stand up steamer and will deep condition with various dc's and oils and honey. Will post what I use each week.

1. How often you will steam? I'm aiming for weekly but it's more likely to be bi-monthly.

2. What method are you using to steam? Huetiful Steamer *my cat ate the plug so steaming has been tricky. :'( *

Wow, thanks! My hair was lookin' a hot mess when those pics were taken! I have it cornrowed under a wig for about 3 weeks but so I just took one side braid down to do a quick length check so its was a frizzy mess. But thanks for the compliment. You made my day!
