I'm experimenting with steaming in twist. Will steam, then baggy 15 minutes and seal. The worst that can happen is they frizz.

Anyone using a Huetiful steamer found a good way to get the back, besides sitting side ways?

As I watched it yesterday, I think the main issue is that the steam rises as it comes out of the unit, so it doesn't have a chance to hit the back.

Sat under the steamer last night with Joico Moisture Recovery Treatment Balm. For me sitting under the steamer is much more comfortable once I have some thick new growth. With a fresh relaxer touch up, my head is on fire unless I open the vents of the steamer.

I hope it's not too late to join this challenge. I just ordered a steamer, so I'm excited to get started once it arrives.

1. How often you will steam? I plan on steaming once a week.
2. What method are you using to steam? I will use my LCL stand up steamer.
3. What products will you steam with? Various conditioners (mostly Oyin or Shescentit) and EVOO.

I've been natural for about 3 years, but my hair hasn't been thriving this past year. It's barely retained any length and the crown/middle has been breaking. Hopefully, steaming will help me get back on track! I'm adding a current length check pic.

Steaming with Annabelle's blueberry dc. This is my first time tryin this conditioner so I was torn between using it alone to see how it does or mixing with avocado oil. I ended up mixing because I read somewhere that for maximum steaming benefits an oil should be used.

Do you ladies always steam ur dc's with an oil mixed in?

Rnjones, I heard the same thing about oil and steaming so I *always* use some type of oil when I steam even if I don't use anything else.

I wish I could tell you but when researching steamers I read so many blogs, lhcf threads, and watched so many YouTube videos that I was drowning in info. Sorry I can't be of more help.

No Worries Sis. Thanks

I tried it tonight w/Oil. I had some Hydratherma Oil I've been trying to use up, so I added it.

Will continue to do this to use up the Oil and monitor the difference.

Steaming a caramel treatment for 30 min. Wanted to leave it in overnight, but it's too drippy so steam it is.
