Oh! Tiffers if your hubby liked VS So Sexy con (yes I STILL remember that thread ) he will probably love the pumpkin puree. I read somewhere that men love the smell of pumpkins on a woman. All men, except for my husband. I just can't find that magic scent. I keep trying though!

 

[Simply_Kelz]

Tonight with Kiwi Lime Squeeze.

 

[MizzBrown]

V05 Lavender Fields.

 

[Eisani]

prepoo'd overnight w/V05 Xtra Body mixed w/Vatika Oil, CW this morning w/V05 Raspberries smells delish, hair soft and waves are POPPIN !

 

[Simply_Kelz]

Today:

Shampoo. with my mom's motions lavishing.
DC.with my mom's motions silk protein conditioning.
Then cowashing with Kiwi Lime Squeeze.

Hope it goes well .. I didnt bring that many hair products with me .. but I did buy some Tresemme the other day that I can't wait to use

 

[Simply_Kelz]

Question: I told my mom to pick up any Tresemme condish for me, It's a white bottle, that says Volume, with silk proteins. I was hoping for the S&S. Has anyone tried this one?

 

[miami74]

Sorry KelleCarter, I haven't tried Tresemme Volume. I'm sure it will be just as good as the others though.

I CW'd today first with Suave Humectant, after a protein treatment. Then I CW'd with Herbal Essence None of Your Frizzness, after my moisturizing DC.

 

[Mrs. Verde]

Co-washed this morning with Walmart Pantene and white rain.

I haven't been able to co wash in a week in a half because my hot water heater was out and the repair man was stalling. i called him and told him to get his butt over here now my hair is suffering. He finally shows up and repairs the problem but then DH wants to turn the flame higher and it went out again (think Tim the Toolman from Home Improvement). I told him if he ever touches anything again i will break his fingers off. I had to call the man again. Long story short as soon as i get home today i will pamper my hair all night long and make DH wish that it was him getting special treatment instead of my hair.

DCW'd for an hour while I did Callanetics. Used Naked Naturals Citrus Keratin, used Tresemme S&S as a leave in, sealed with oo serum and bunned it up

He's gonna be givin you them big ol puppy eyes

Our heater's actin a fool too. But I can't stop co washing, I'm addicted. I've been taking cold showers and co washing my hair in cold water

 

[tapioca_pudding]

Aiight, I haven't co-washed in a while cuz I just did my touchup. BUT I have two stories that only my co-washin ladies would understand.

1 - This morning I got into the shower like I normally do. Then all at once I realized I wasn't wearing a shower cap!! I had gotten so used to co-washing in the shower that I just jumped in without thinking! I scrambled to throw my shower cap on my head before my hair got *too* wet. crazniness..

2 - I got my SitriNillah in the mail yesterday. I rubbed some in my hair this morning to smooth it down. So now I smell like ah-ranges! oh snap......

Anywho, back to your regularly scheduled program..

 

[morehairplease]

LOL. He will be okay. That will teach him a lesson. I hate cold water. I need it nice and steamy. Co washing is very addicting.

 

[d-rock]

I told my cuzo about my co-washing, no heat, deep conditioning, and buy nothing for June challenges and she was like you better stick to washing once a week yada yada yada and I'm like, "my hair seems to be responding to the daily wetness and shampoo free reggie. It grew an inch last month." And then I heard...silence. But I did get props for the no-heat challenge. Can't all be winners, huh? I co-washed Sunday with HE DS, um... Monday D/C'ed with Tea Tree cholesterol condish, and this morning co/washed with HE HH. Think I'm gonna do my homemade yogurt, honey, evoo, condish tonight.

 

[joyandfaith]

pre-poo'd with Jehan's pre-poo oil and Vatika Oil. Washed with All-soft and conditioned with NTM. Used a little HE HH as a leave in.

 

[BeautifulFlower]

I co-wash regularly so I count me in.

I am so in love with my hair now. I have 4a hair, thick hair and with ayurvedics, co-washing, and "special products", I swear it looks like I have 3b-3c hair silky and shiny. (Promise to post pics tonight)

I have been co-washing every night since I have taken out my weave and relaxed my hair (I had to resign from the weave challenge because the OCT protein caused dryness because I wasnt co-washing daily).

My nightly regimen:

1. Massage and stritch scalp with alma and shikakai oil
2. Coat hair with those oils and VO5 conditioner
3. Let sit in hair until I am ready to shower
4. Rinse hair thoroughly
5. Lightly dry hair
6. Apply V05 Conditioner as leave-in and a little Mango Butter
7. Apply Coconut and Castor oil to seal
8. Apply Glycerin for SHINE
9. Apply OCT & Sue's Growth Oil (Aloe Vera Juice, HorseTail Herb Extract, Grapeseed Oil Mix) to scalp with needle nose bottle

Pictures Coming Soon!

TOO FUNNY! Aww, he was just tryin' to help!

Thanks for the link! I want that Pumpkin Puree, man!!! Does it give lots of slip? It sunds like it smells sooooo good

Girl, I was just thinking about VS So Sexy! I love that stuff! Your husband sucks! Don't worry, you'll find SOMETHIN he likes, it'll probably be something all simple, like peppermint or coconut

Yeah, he's special.

 

[Butterfly08]

CW this morning with VS Amber conditioner and left in HSH pumpkin puree. It keeps my hair really soft. I did a wash n go afterwards.

 

[Eisani]

Glad to see yall enjoying the ah-ranges Speaking of, I think I'll DC overnight w/that. You know you've become a CW junkie when you get to thinking to yourself "dang, I've been doing ______(blank task)____ for all this time...I could've been DC'ing!" I thought this when I went on a 3 hr cleaning tirade in the basement! I just got done but thought Dagnabbit, I coulda DC'd and CW tonight!

 

[Simply_Kelz]

Um, does anyone else's Tresemme have cetyl alcohol?erplexed

 

[tiffers]

It's okay, there are good and bad alcohols. Cetyl and stearyl are the two most common found in products, they're fatty alcohols that help moisturize your hair
