2014 Steaming in the Moisture

I steamed for 30 minutes using Avocado Oil plus Hairveda Sitrinillah Deep Conditioner. I also added Keraveda Fenugreek oil.

Sometimes you can run white Vinegar through it and clean it out (if that's the problem).

And the water reservoir should never be completely filled to the brim.

When my stopped (after 4 years), it just wouldn't steam.

It was on running etc....but not making steam. I had to replace it.

It was LCL ProSeries 1037 (or something like that). I repurchased the same exact one.

Can you spell out how to do it exactly? Put it in the container as I would do the water and turn it on OR you mean just pour vinegar in it? Sorry for the "density" lol IDareT'sHair
 
@Fine 4s

You would fill the water reservoir with the white vinegar and run it through like you would if you were steaming by turning it on setting the timer etc...

You would probably do a combo of White Vinegar + Water to run it through there.

I've never had it happen, but read several posts where folks were able to fix their Steamers out by running White Vinegar through it.

Mine just stopped heating. It was on & working, but not producing steam/getting hot.
 
I'm not on this board very often but I had to say this. I've had my steamer for almost a year.. But never consistently steamed until a month ago! Steaming is the truth.. My hair is moisturized even before I use my leave ins and butters. This will definitely be apart of my regimen!!
 
I washed my hair, applied my henna gloss (over night lazy) deep conditioned with Jessicurl DWT (2hrs) and sit under my steamer (45min) LOVED IT! I applied my oil mixture to my length, oiled my scalp with almond glaze, Belnouvo's Avocado & Shea Hair Milk (leave in) and their CoCo Castor Pudding(styler). Y'all OMG! I was able to detangle with the hair milk and it smiled awesome!! Coco Castor Pudding is very nice and has a good smell as well. It gave my hold soft/medium hold. I put my hair in several medium twists. BAM!!! This is my first impression of Belnouvo's line and I'm pleased right now.

Count me in, I'm having issues with my steamer also. I put water in the reservior and immediately runs out. Water runs down the side onto the floor, what does this mean? This is my second steamer from LCL,
so I'm stumped on whats wrong
 
1. How often you will steam? I will steam my hair weekly.
2. What method are you using to steam? I am using my Huetiful Hair Steamer until I order my professional stand up steamer.
3. What products will you steam with? I will steam with every conditioner that I have in my house... lol

Today I steamed with Keracare Humecto Conditioner. My hair came out feeling so soft and moisturized :D

I had that happen (with my 1st one) and I could not figure out what was wrong.

There was a very superficial crack in the reservoir. It was barely visible to the naked eye.

And then I remembered I had dropped it on my kitchen floor. It looked fine.

But the Crack was along the seam of the reservoir.

Once I replaced the Reservoir it was fine. It was like $24.99
 
Steaming right now with aubrey organics honeysuckle rose and rose mosqueta with perfect blends hair and body oil and honey.

Fill up the Water Reservoir over your Sink turn it upside down and see if/how water pours out. Try it.

When my Steamer did finally 'break' (after 6 years) it would not Heat/Steam. It would turn on, but just wouldn't heat up.
 
I washed my hair Friday night. I set under my steam for 45 minutes with Hairveda's Sitrinillah Deep Conditioner. My hair felt so soft and moist. This product smells nice and it is thick as heck. It was late, so I deep conditioned over night. I rinsed the product out in the morning. Wondering why this isn't in my rotation; back it goes. I used Oyin's products to style my hair.
 
I steamed a pre-poo using coconut oil for 15 minutes. After first washing and then applying Komaza care protein treatment (under the dryer) I followed up with a deep moisturizing treatment under the steamer for 30 minutes using some more coconut oil plus KBB's Luscious Locks Mask.

You probably have a crack in it. I'm on my second reservoir and it has a crack in it also.

Normally I steam at home - but I visited the salon last week and opted for the steam hydration. Well - my hair definitely feels more moisturized than before and I am a weekly home steamer. All machines aren't created equal. My next steamer will be the professional one.

My LCL's Stats:
  1. Cracked Reservoir
  2. Has a cracked leg so I have to put a book underneath for it to stand up
  3. Will only work on low. If I use the high setting it turns off after 2 minutes.
 
1. How often you will steam? 1x a week to start off.
2. What method are you using to steam? I am using the Q-Redew
3. What products will you steam with? Aveda, Bask, Curl Junkie, Ingredients to Die for, Koils by Nature etc...
