4 Month Co-Washing Challenge!

I co-washed last night with Herbal Essences conditioner (I forgot the name but the one for long hair in the red/deep pink bottle). Followed up with the split ends creme of the same brand.
 
Yesterday w/ V05 Strawberries & Cream

Ya'll are bringing out the PJ in me w/ all this ah-ranges talk.... :look: :lachen:

Not that I'm an enabler or anything :poke:but the stuff is yummy and leaves your hair super soft and like I mentioned before, the scent lingers. When the store re-opens on Tuesday, I will be getting the 40 oz :beer::lachen:
 
I cowashed tonight with HE...again! :yep: I did a moisture DC with Keracare humecto & Alma oil. My hair feels so smooth! I straightened the back and guess wah! Growth! Yes growth! The front is still SL, but the back is there y'all! WhOOoooOO!! :grin:


But I think I might have to drop out of this challenge for a while. I'm getting braids tomorrow for my Turkey vacation! I'm keeping them in for a month. I dont know what the alternative is to co-washing while in braids??????????

THEY HAVE A 40OZ????? IN WHAT STORE?

:lick:
 
Cowashed last night with Silk Elements conditioner trying to use it up. Then my hair felt gross so I used castile soap but I don't think that counts as a shampoo right?:perplexed
 
Checking in, cause, uh, Tiffers ratted me out and said she aint seen me in here in a while. :perplexed LOL

I co-washed on Sunday and will Co-wash again on Friday!

Sunday co-wash:
-Cowashed w/ V05 Strawberries & Cream
-DC'd with ORS Replenishing Conditioner spiked w/ Black Castor oil.
-ACV rinse
-Salerm21 and CHI Silk as a leave-in
-Rollerset as normal
-Greased my scalp w/ Qhemet Biologics Amla Oil Nourishing Pomade
-Sealed w/ Carol's Daughter Hair Balm
 
I co washed this am with shescentit's Tea Tree and Grapefruit conditioner, then used Kenra MC as a leave-in :grin:
 
I LOVE cowashes. I use suave and aussie... My things is all manipulating everyday. I thought the less you comb the more it GROWS :perplexed

Low/no mani works for some, but doesn't for others. If yourr hair doesn't like to be manipulated daily, co washing often probably wouldn't be best. I tried the low mani thing--knot and tangle city! My hair NEEDS to be combed daily, I learned that the hard way :ohwell:
 
I wanted him to "discover" the source of the scent on his own! Baby was in my space the whole night then ran his fingers thru it from underneath (stealth weave check, I do believe :lachen:) and was like "glorious!". I checked BJ's site and it said it'll be reopening on the 27th w/some new products. I wonder what they're gonna be? I feel like Tyrone Biggums (Dave Chappelle) cuz I can't access the site!

:lachen: :lachen:

Girl, you gon have that boy fall in love with you. Hair smellin like ah-ranges AND it's all yours??!!! :lachen:

Glad to see you back! I don't wanna have to pull out this smiley :spank: again! It hurts me more than it hurts you :yep:

:lachen: :lachen:

How long does it take you to rollerset? I'll bet you're fast!

How is the Tea Tree and Grapefruit conditioner? I cowashed last night with VO5 Passion Fruit. Then applied Shescentit's Green Grape Leave-in Conditioner and Qhemet's Amla and Heavy Cream and sealed with jojoba oil. My hair is so soft and feels so good.

It's okay, not as good as the Fortifying Masque. It's thinner too, and my hair doesn't too much care for liquidy conditioners. It smells good, though :yep:

CW this a.m. w/MnT Herbal Expressions. Used more as a leave in then bunned w/FOTE Aloe Vera gel and JBCO.

Has anyone tried the V05 Pomegranate yet? I'll be purchasing after work, tired of eye balling it.

I was talking to his sis and she relaxed her hair after being natural for about 6 yrs and I told her I had thought about transitioning to completely natural seeing how long I stretch between texlaxes anyway and I heard him say under his breath "word?" He gon' get me in 'chrubble' (how my dd spelled "trouble" in a letter she wrote me when in 1st grade :lachen:)
 
Co-washed this morning with Nexxus Humectress and a little EVOO. I can't wait to get this Sitrinillah I keep hearing about. Do I order it from the Hairveda website?

Yes, but the store closed until the 27th. I already sent myself a reminder to get on it first thing Tues morning!
 
I'm in.... I started in May but just now joining this forum. Hopefully i can get in where i fit in :grin:
 
LOL!!! :lachen:

SE Luxury Moisturizing... it has a LOT of mineral oil, which doesn't typically bother me but although it makes my hair silky, it feels hard because its so coated. It gives a lot of slip, but I find that I need to wash my hair more often just to get the buildup off.. Unfortunately I have the big 32 oz that I'm using up:perplexed

Motions is sooo much better IMO:yep:
 
Quick question...How many NATURALS w/ SL or longer hair co-wash 3x/week..And how are you wearing your hair???

TIA

I cowash almost every day. I am doing flat twists in the front box braids in the back as a protective style and then I place a wig on the back of it sometimes.

-Cowashed tonight w/ V05 Tangerine Tickle
