Had my steamer since 2008. It’s going out on me. It’s finally time to replace.
Wow...10 years is a long time. I guess I'm hard on steamers or pick bad ones because I normally replace my steamers approximately every 2 years.Had my steamer since 2008. It’s going out on me. It’s finally time to replace.
I had no routine at all. I just made sure it was drained after use. I used regular two water.What’s y’all cleaning routine for your steamers? How often? What do you use? If I buy another steamer it will be my 4th .
@Nichelle_jb What kind of steamers do you get? I've had my steamer for 10 years.
I've purchased different brands. I always purchased a "Professional" upright steamer hoping they would last longer. I always use Distilled water. I haven't run Vinegar through it though I did that with my 1st steamer years ago. It did last the longest (I think about 2 1/2 years).
Dang...I treat my steamer terribly compared to you.
I'd be putting on my "let me speak to/email your manager " hat and try to at least get a discount on a new one. It makes such a difference in my hair that I'd probably buy one every few years too. Still cheaper than 15-20 dollar a pop salon prices.
Koils By Nature's Detoxifying Charcoal & Mint Deep Conditioner
@Nichelle_jbHow do you like this conditioner? I tried a different Deep Conditioner from them and I wasn't impressed. Love their leave-in though.
I tried the Shealoe Conditioner one. I still have some left...maybe I should try it as a pre-poo. I checked Koils by Nature's website and the price I saw was $15.99. I think I'll wait. Maybe I'll try it if they offer a good Black Friday sale.@Nichelle_jb
Gurl....That's a gooooood question!
When I 1st used it, I used it overnight as a Pre-Poo. (on Dry Hair).
This is my 1st time using it/trying it as a Deep Conditioner. So, I'm still trying to figure out the "best" way to use it.
It has directions for using it with a "Steamer" so I thought I'd try it this way.
I got a back/up, so I musta' thought I liked it?
You musta' tried either the Cocoaloe or the Shealoe Conditioner(s)?
I recently reuped on those.
I've never tried the L-I.
I have tried the Oil, the ACV Growth Rinse and the Butters.
