2017 Coffee Tea Clay Mud Acv Avj Ayurveda Challenge

[Aggie]

This morning I massaged the remainder of my 4 oz CP growth oil in my scalp and smoothed down the length of my hair for a few minutes, then I took the herbs left over from my CP ayurveda tea rinse last week (I had it in the refrigerator).

I stretched it with some hot water, shook it up, jumped in the shower and poured the entire bottle of the liquid herbs onto my hair, making sure to saturate my scalp with the mixture. I left it on while I showered.

When I washed it out, I was expecting dry hair but on the contrary, it was super moisturized. I didn't even use a cowash to rinse it out - I didn't have to. I wonder if it was because I added the hibiscus and kalpi tone powders to my tea .

Well needless to say, this is how I will be doing this moving forward.

 

[Aggie]

Tonight I moisturized with APB Moisturizing Hair Lotion and QB Amla & Olive Heavy Cream sealed with APB Hair and Body Butta - again no oil tonight.

 

[Nightingale]

I've been misting my hair daily with my semi-DIY ayurvedic tea and sealing my ends with ITDF Olive Conditioning Pomade.

 

[Bad&Bougee]

I did a guava rinse after my DC. Let the guava tea soak for 30 minutes and did a light rinse to leave a smidgen of tea in my hair. I'm not sure if it's the tea or what but my hair feels good - soft but strong. I want to prepoo with it on my next wash and do a rinse after my DC.

I'm going to copy @Aggie and peep Zenia's oil blend.

 

[Aggie]

I just finished spraying and massaging in my Curly Proverbz ayurveda tea rinse on my hair and scalp. Scalp feels nice and invigorated and ready for work.

 

[Aggie]

Tonight I sprayed my CP Ayurveda tea rinse again but no moisturizer to chase, my hair is still very moisturized. Now that I'm thinking about it, I believe it's because I did a clay detox on Saturday past. My hair behaves unbelievably well after a clay detox treatment.

@IDareT'sHair

Yes I did. I really love that stuff and even though I have 3 of the 16 oz jars left in my stash, I am still buying 2 more if she has a great sale during BF and of course some Rum and Raisin Body Butter.

 

[IDareT'sHair]

@Aggie
I love the Dead Sea Mud too. It's "messy" but it works great!

Like you, I started applying it while in the shower. It's much better applied there.

I have a henna gloss with fenugreek treatment on my hair. Can I use a heating cap with it?

Yes,

My hair is liking this Ayurveda regiment. I remember trying it it back in the days when I was relaxed, but I was doing it all wrong.

@Keen
Welcome Sis.

So Happy to have you!

I also tried it 'relaxed' and was doing it 'all wrong' then too.

Good Evening Ladies.

Got home about an hour ago and decided to do a 10 minute scalp massage with CP Ayurveda Growth Oil, followed by 5 minutes of inversion. My hair still feels wonderfully soft so I probably won't moisturize it tonight but will save it for after I spritz with CP Ayurveda Tea Rinse. .

 

[Aggie]

This morning, so far I have on CP ayurveda growth oil on my scalp and hair as a prepoo.

I have some leftover henna in a double boil warming up to apply after prepooing for about 30 minutes.

I will stretch the henna with some kalpi tone and amla powders and mix in some Nexxus Polymedic Emergency Reconstructor because my hair feels like it needs some strength.

Moisturizing today with APB Moisturizing Hair Lotion.

Plaiting my hair up and wigging for the day.

 

[IDareT'sHair]

Used: CANTU ACV Root Rinse
Did a Black Coffee Rinse
Also, an AVJ mixed with Red Palm Oil Rinse

 

[Aggie]

I just applied and massaged my CP Ayurveda Growth Oil for 5 minutes, moisturized my ends with APB Moisturizing Hair Lotion and Inverted for 5.5 minutes.

Day 4 of my Inversion for the month of November is complete.

 

[NaturallyATLPCH]

Prepooed using Jakeala's Shea Amla Hemp Castor Parfait

 

[mzteaze]

Decided to mix cocoa butter and Shea butter into my cassia/henna mix. That's sitting on my hair for an hour then I will poo and figure out which conditioner I want to use.

On wash day last Thursday, I did a tea rinse in between the shampoo and condition process. I found a huge box of a black and green tea blend at the grocery store by Tetley so I used that with some rosemary herbs.



Today, I oiled my scalp with my Ayurvedic Herbal oil. Moisturized with rose water, Camille Rose coconut water leave-in then sealed with my Ayurvedic cream. Put my hair in one big braid pinned up into a bun.

 

[Smiley79]

Has anyone used Design Essentials Rosemary and mint deep conditioner? If so how did you like it?

 

[mzteaze]

Has anyone tried the ayurvedic hair care tabs from Banyon Botanicals?. They sound interesting since they contain bhringraj & other powders we use topically.

No I haven't tried the tablets. I buy their ayurveda powders and oils but that's about it.

Soooo... I'm new to all of this, I cut off all of my hair 6 weeks ago, and started some henna treatments and clay masks in the last 4 weeks.

My hair is really liking it, and growing quickly, so I wanted an opinion,

Is it better to have a henna regimen, or maybe to clay wash each week.

My hair liked both and felt different...in different ways after each treatment.

The only thing that stops me from the henna is the mess...
