2015 Coffee,Tea,ACV,AVJ,Ayurvedic, Powders/Clay, Challenge

Hi Everyone. Have been away from the boards for a while.Had a look around a few days ago and really am going to get kicked back back in to looking after myself.
Have always enjoyed the herbal approach to hair.
Just made a leave in mixture of Marigold,ACV,Oil (a little mix of sunflower,castor and evoo). Was told it may help with my dry ends.
May sound likea silly question,but here goes.... When u make the tea or other herbal rinses do you just pour over dry hair then allow to air dry or do you co-wash first?

I've been super lazy with my tea rinses, being pregnant for almost a year added to the laziness. Got some hair tea mists from cc's naturals bf sales, so will be religiously treating my hair with them.
Sprayed some cc's naturals marshmallow and burdock tea mists on twists today
 
I mixed up some Amla and bhringraj powders with some conditioner and applied on top of my HOT. Will leave on for approximately 45 minutes.

I'm trying to get back to using teas and Ayurvedic products for 2016. It's been a minute since I've posted.
 
After I co washed my henna pack off (henna, maka, brahmi, amla, hibiscus powders mixed with cone free conditioner, mustard oil, jbco and some glycerine) , I put some coffee on, let it sit for 3 minutes, then proceeded with AO HSR.

I sealed with evoo and like the results!
 
Will Steep a Pot of something. Maybe Hibiscus or something "different". Maybe Pure Green.

Lemme go look in my Tea Stash. Maybe a nice Pot of Fenugreek?
 
Imma incorporate AVJuice Rinses into my 2016 Regimen (at least throughout the Winter).

I'm trying to figure out if I dilute it or just pour it over straight? I've been trying to read up on it before I start.

I'm also tryna' decide where it should go in my Regimen? At the beginning or at the end?
 
For me straight aloe vera juice was too much. Made my hair hard. I usually dilute it with water, add glycerin and I have a perfect refresher spray. When I use it or ACV after a conditioner, the solution takes away the softness of the conditioner. After a shampoo bar, they soften my hair. So I think you may have to experiment as I believe hair porosity has a lot to do with how your hair feels after application.
I also think that in the new year I am going to get some pH sticks. I tell you they are worth their weight in gold. You will know exactly what your hair needs. Last time I bought them, I tested everything I purchase. Went through 100 sticks in 2 weeks.:badgirl:
 
Put about two tablespoons of brahmi powder into some leftover dr miracles hair masque I found under the sink. Softest, fluffiest hair ever!

I'm making some rosewater to massage into my scalp later.
 
I love the concept of Lunar Hair Cutting etc.Has anyone used this method? What are your thoughts? I was just looking online and found The Morrocco Method monthly charts for 2015-2016.

I absolutely LOVE avj straight. I pair it with my leave-in to remoisturize my hair and so far it hasn't even remotely made my hair hard. I have hard water and distilled water isn't immediately accessible to me so this has been a hairsaver for me.

My hair is fine and high porosity so I would say keep that in mind, since people with lower porosity hair tend not to like using as much I do.
