2020 & Beyond Delightfully Delicious Deep Conditioning Challenge

Did not do a protein Rx. Instead:
L’Oreal DC + Canola Oil
Microwaved DC Mix & Used Hot Head Cap

Figuring out how to best deep condition my hair has been great. I’m going to keep microwaving and adding oil to my DCs. My leave ins apply so much better, and my hair looks so defined and feels like butter after rinsing (and stays like that for 1-2 weeks). After 10+ years, I’m a deep conditioning convert. Having a good quality DC as a base is important though. For instance, I have had little success modifying my OGX DC (i’ll try again later tho).

The best part is I only have to deep condition for 20 min now.

ETA:
Please note: there are certain products that I won’t heat up - Protein Treatments and products that contain certain preservatives I can post them below:

Formaldehyde, quaternium-15, dimethyl-dimethyl (DMDM) hydantoin, imidazolidinyl urea, diazolidinyl urea, sodium hydroxymethylglycinate, 2-bromo-2-nitropropane-1,3-diol (bromopol).

Last night, I cowashed with VO5 Moisture Milks and DC'd with Aussie 3 min. Miracle Moist overnight since I was too lazy to mix up/apply my Silicon Mix and Hada Labo combo.

Even though I love Aussie, I normally use it as a rinse-out and didn't have high hopes for using it solo as a DC, but I rinsed it out with VO5 this morning after my workout and my hair felt like butter and detangled like a dream. So I think I'm gonna start using it by itself consistently as my Wednesday night moisturizing DC. ^_^
 
Under Dryer:
Cream & Coco's Spun Sugar Reconstructor

Under Saran Wrap, Plastic Cap, Wig Cap & Wig (for several hours):giggle:
Afroveda's Ashlii Amala Raspberry DC'er
 
DC'd overnight with Kanechom, Silicon Mix, and Hada Labo but this time I added a bit of VO5 as filler since I'm running low on Silicon Mix. I'm gonna rinse it all out in a few minutes.
 
After getting over my lazy spell after church I decided to hit the shower to start my hair. Here's what I decided on:

-Shampooing with Afro Love Mint Eucalyptus Rosemary Shampoo
-Color - Dominican Republic Big One henna
-Shampoo again with Natur Growth Bambu Shampoo
-Protein Treat with Natur Growth Nectar Repair
-Moisturizing DC with NG Rose Clay DC

-Leave in with IN Aloe and Hibiscus Leave-in
-M/S with CFCG Moisturizer and BM Grease or diy SB blend
 
My regimen this weekend is:

Pre-poo - Chicoro's moisture pre-poo of AVG and EVCO - I need the big guns this weekend and this works well on my hair.
Shampoo - Natur Growth Bambu shampo
Protein DC - Natur Growth Bambu DC
Moisturizing DC - Afro Love Hair Souffle mixed with Bekura YAM Nectar

Leave-in - IN Aloe and Hibiscus
M/S - CFCG Curl Moisturizer and BM Grease or diy Shea Butter
