@Sharpened
Thank you for sharing your experience.

 

[imaginary]

I made up my rice water yesterday and depending on when I decide to have wash day I may put it in the fridge tomorrow.

 

[IDareT'sHair]

I've been leaving mine out on the kitchen counter until I use it. Is that wrong? @imaginary @Sharpened

I have left mine out for three days and used it, no problem.

Oh, NappyFu on Youtube mixes hers with her tea rinse:

Well how long are you leaving it out? The longest I've gone is a week and I usually only put it in the fridge when I'm not sure when wash day will be. I don't think there should be a problem though.

 

[IDareT'sHair]

@imaginary About 3-4 days. Like.......I'd make it today to use on Saturday.

@Sharpened Thanks for the Vid.eo. I appreciate it. I put my DC'er over my Rinse too.

And sometimes I use it before my Final R/O.

Thank you so much Ladies!

@Sharpened @IDareT'sHair Thanks for giving me ideas


I also decided to branch out with my scalp tea soaks. I have a small sample of almond scented green tea (from kusmi) that I've been putting off brewing because I'm not a big fan of almond. Used 1/2 tsp each of it and garlic powder and have left it to brew.

@imaginary

That sounds really good and Sweet Almond & Almond Oil is good for your hair.

Report back.

It sounds good. As long as it's fairly natural and not a "flavored" Tea, you should be good and have good results.

Tonight I used some BB Healthy Hair (Ayurveda) Oil on my scalp and will be washing it out in the morning.

 

[Sharpened]

Rooibos Tea as a leave-in and shedding is still low.

 

[imaginary]

Did the overnight Rx with Kusmi almond green tea on the scalp and vatika oil on hair. Still had shedding but not a whole lot. Decided to try leaving in the Rice water for longer and just applied my protein treatment on top. Oh boy that smell is really something. May stick to staying in shower and using it as a final rinse. Also used avj as the L in my LOC method.

 

[IDareT'sHair]

Will do a Bamboo & Mint Tea Rinse and a Rice Water Rinse today.

 

[IDareT'sHair]

My Rice Water Rinse felt really goodt.

Missed doing those. Guess I'll be buying another bag of rice.

 

[IDareT'sHair]

Will do my Bamboo & Mint Rinse in a few underneath my DC'er to Steam with.

The Rice Water Rinse works so good, I no longer mind the smell. It's such a great addition to the list of Rinses.

I love it too. I'm going to do one today after my clay. My face also loves rice water as a toner.

@AbsyBlvd
It's very nice.

I've been impressed with both the Rice Water and the Guava Leaf Tea.

Both are winners. Both work extremely well.

My face and scalp love it; hair don't care. My hair loves sweat, so go figure.

I plan to do a rice water rinse with some bamboo/chamomile tea for my next wash. I placed the rice water in the fridge. I was going to wash my hair today but my ernergy to do my hair is null and void.

 

[IDareT'sHair]

@flyygirlll2
I hear you about that energy thing.

And you gotta' get your mind right too.

Alladat before you can even deal.

@Sharpened
I know this says AVJ so that means both the Juice and the Gel/Gelly.

OK, just making sure.

 

[IDareT'sHair]

@Sharpened
Yep. Let the Juice/Gelly/Gel and any other Combo's Begin!

Any ACV's, Molasses, Honey, Manuka, Agave - any Powders etc....We're Here For it!

 

[imaginary]

So I used some Aphogee green tea restucturizer today and that stuff always makes my hair feel instantly hard. I've always wondered if it was the astringent aspect of green tea or just the whole bunch of other ingredients in it . Either way I'm tempered it with my oil and leave-in.

 

[Sharpened]

I am tempted to mix a little glycerin with my Rooibos Tea...
