Deep conditioning now with hydrolyzed quinoa protein spray held in with some Affirm Preservo. I know that's not the way it's supposed to be used but it has protein in it and it's helping to keep the quinoa protein from dripping lol.
 
DC'ed under dryer with: Cathy Howse Ultra Black Hair (20 minutes - must use Heat)
DC'ed under Steamer with: J.Monique Naturals Jojoba Hair Rx
 
Doing a simple but effective DC just to use up some stuff. Mixed the last tiny bit of Sally's GVP Reconstructing Conditioner with OGX Moisture Surge Deep Treatment under a plastic cap, scarf and bonnet since my normal DC beanie is in the washer.

Doing this again tonight but with added Millcreek Keratin Conditioner (creamier, lighter protein). Had to shampoo last night's out because it made my hair too hard so I want to make sure I'm getting a full protein treatment tonight.
 
1 hour with Hairveda Strinillah under a turban while I napped. Added in some peppermint and, aloe gel
 
I did a heated DC on Tuesday night as part of the MHM regi. I'll be doing it again tomorrow night after a henna gloss.
 
- Co-washed with HV Red Tea Conditioner. Meh.

- DC’ed with Lace Brahmi Masque under a cap for three hours. This conditioner applied well and offered a small amount of slip; it did not take much for my hair to become fully saturated. Upon rinsing, my hair felt moisturized and a bit soft with noticeable strength. I experienced average shedding and breakage.

- Results: This is a very decent DC.
 
I have sooooo many conditioners to use up but I'm trying to keep my hair braided for 2-4 weeks at a time so I can get beyond APL and DCing in celies causes knots and tangles for me. Does more frequent DCing trump long term protective styling?

I'd say no, they work hand in hand. I don't DC in twists or braids either.

Do your DCing right before and after your protective style will allow you to use up DCs and keep your hair in good shape.
 
DC on Tues with SM JBCO treatment masque then Crece Pelo DC to prep for blowdrying.

I think I could have gotten away with using one or the other to DC, just wanted to give my strands extra protection.
 
Dc'ing over coffee with Keracare Humecto Moisturizing Dc, Porosity Control, Olive Oil, Honey, Peppermint, Rosemary, Eucalyptus Oil under heat for 30 mins.

@PJaye

I :love: this DC'er.

This will always be in my Stash.
 
Sitting under heat cap. Using AO HSR, mixed with some cheapie VO5. Trying to stretch it, I ran out of conditioner, lol.
 
Did a tea rinse with marshmallow root & fenugreek, then made my DC mix of SSI Avocado condish, Aussie Moist 3 min deep condish, HB Carrot Cholesterol, and my oil mix. I'm currently under the dyer now. I plan to dc for about 35 - 40 mins. I'm getting my hair braided tomorrow and want to make sure my hair is moisturized well.
 
I'm DCing with Joico Moisture Recovery Treatment balm and my ceramide oil blend for 30 minutes under dryer.
 
I was sick, so I passively pampered my hair.

Prep-Poo: HOT with Ayurvedic Oil overnight
Shampoo: Giovanni Tea Tree Triple Treat
Conditioner: Ultra Sheen DuoTex + APB Blueberry Cheesecake + Giovanni Smooth as Silk + Castor Oil
 
Sitting with a protein treatment in my hair (Komaza) for about an hour. Then I will DC with APB Olive & Oats Herbal Conditioner.
 
Deep conditioning now with hydrolyzed quinoa protein/Millcreek Keratin Conditioner/aloe vera gel/sunflower oil.
