Also, I made 2 clay mixes this last wash day. One for my hair and one for my scalp.

Scalp: bentonite, activated charcoal, diatomaceous earth, acv, peppermint oil and bay leaf tea
Hair: bentonite, rhassoul, a smidge of DE, cane vinegar, bay leaf tea

Left those uncovered and let it dry out for better cleansing according to that Green Beauty Channel. Also used my FRW. Soft and strong hair.

I wanna see your hair/scalp playbook, lol.

@ladybevy How do you usually prepare your rice water? (I mean, do you use tap or filtered water, is it hot/warm/cold, is there a certain type of container it needs to be stored in, etc.) I was making rice the other day, and rice water rinses crossed my mind, but I wasn't sure of best practices when preparing one.

I always use distilled water. Everything that I have read stated that the best water to use is distilled. I always use room temperature distilled water. I store it in a glass container with a lid. It works perfect for me. They also said it best to use organic rice but I don't have that right now. So I'm using plain white rice. I always rinse it out first (since it's not organic it will remove all the dirt).
 
@IDareT'sHair Absolutely!

I do henna every 3-4 months. I also use an Ayurvedic hair cream (leave in) and deep conditioner, when I'm not going to the salon to have it deep conditioned. I'm still trying to figure out how to use bentonite clay properly. I feel like when I use it, it refuses to wash off of my scalp.

Edited to add: I completely forgot, because I just got it yesterday, but I'm loving this organic anti-itch weave and braid spray from my salon. It feels so refreshing on my scalp, but I feel like my hair is also smoothed and moisturizer when I use it.

It's aloe vera based, and has glycerin, tea tree oil, orange oil and lavender oil.

I didn't even remember from when I was transitioning, but both my hair and scalp love aloe vera juice. I need to make more of an effort to incorporate aloe vera juice into my regimen from now on.

It seems like there are only a handful of sources. My personal hangup is that I don't trust eBay as I've been burnt a few times, so that's out for me.

I might just stick with this pre-made product since I don't seem to need as much as I originally estimated.

I purchased Chebe Butter from Chebe Gold not too long ago but had the worst experience in terms of shipping taking almost a month as well as the Chebe Butter they sent me was very hard/grainy so I ended up trashing it.

Here are two other places that sell Chebe.

https://www.chebemagic.com/

(This one I believe 2 other members from here purchased without any issue)

I just bought the 1oz for $10 bucks. Will let you know when I get it. Will mix it into a SB blend.

May also mix a little in an Oil (either Grape Seed or Sweet Almond) because I have a lot of both of these.

Great! Would love some feedback.

There is a unique smell that my product has, so I wonder if it comes from the powder itself.

I see it has Lavender, Cloves, Arabic oils spices & perfumes? What does your product smell like?

@flyygirlll2 How does yours smell?

I bought a premixed gloss from Curls & Potions. They used mint (peppermint & spearmint EO) to cover up an unusual smell you can detect over the mint. It's hard to describe. It's not offensive just foreign, if that makes sense.
