Miss Traycee,
Please help me with this protective styling. I am so S.O.S. about it all.

What is "HE"? It sounds interesting, but I don't have a clue. Just Googled it, that's okay. I am wondering if this is for folk with relaxers. I can't imagine any product (that doesn't rearrange the curl pattern) straightening the stuff on my head.

I have been reading through the 90-something pages here trying to learn exactly how to "co-wash"! So far, I still don't know.

It's really how it sounds. Washing with conditioner. Some apply to dry hair then rinse. Others wet hair, slather condish on, then rinse, which I refer to as a co-rinse. Others really massage it in, using it the same as shampoo then rinse.
HTH!

Herbal Essences .. I doubt it really straightens, these companies usually just make a shampoo, condish, and sometimes serum, that claim if you use the trio it'll make it easier to straighten, increase volume, retain moisture, etc.

Co-washed this morning with Redken Real control and used a little Alba Gardenia nourishing conditioner as a leave in. Shea Buttered my ends and braided it up.

Hi all. I am totally new here and found this site by accident. I am excited about what I will learn here and can't wait to get my hair growing. I think I understand what co-washing is now but I wanted to know if you just dry the way you would after a regular sampoo wash.
Also, if anyone can please direct me to where I can get a beginners guide to better understanding the steps I need to take (for permed hair). Thank you. I am truly inspired by the photos and testimonies I have seen and read.

Well, people have different methods of drying. Some who only co-wash a couple of times weekly may use a hooded dryer. But I believe most of us airdry, and personally I use the scarf method.
HTH! And welcome!

I'm DC'ing as we speak.
I'm 7 weeks post .. and my new growth just popped up outta nowhere.
erplexed Especially in the middle. It tangles SO EASILY.
So I parted my hair in 4 sections, and finger detangled each section, and plaited it up. Then I took down each plait and mixed some ORS with some EVOO and a little VO5 to make it a bit less runny, and applied that conditioner like a relaxer on dry hair, then coated the length in small sections, then would plait back up.
I'll take down each plait and rinse separately, and co-wash tonight. Cowashing with VO5 Vanilla Mint Tea.

Yes! Thanks, Kel, for responding. I dc'd yesterday and purchased "supplies". Today . . I co-wash for the first time. Just trying to decide when I'll do it: before I start todays errands or as a treat to myself when I get back in. I think the back in will win out. I don't want to rush it, like I said I am viewing it as a treat.
I'll be back later . .

Yesterday with HE LTR, left in pumpkin puree, bunned.
grinI bought Pumpkin Puree products @ TJ Maxx and Marshall's today
CW this morning w/V05 Sun Ripened Raspberry. Used some as leave in, sealed w/JBCO and bunned. This old man @ Cracker Barrel this morning told me I smelled "very pleasant"

I've been bad erplexed I think I only co washed once this week, if that.
Dh is home on vacation and I just CANNOT get anything done when he's home! We literally just sit around all day, watching tv and playing with the kids. Then, when I realize what time it is, it's too late to do anything
I'm so lazy and triflin when he's home

Tiffers, How are you using Bee Mine when co washing?
I'm having problems understanding how I can get the full effect if I'm using so much water
Help a sista!
I co wash in the morning, and right after, I apply my leave ins and then Bee Mine. By the same time the next morning, it's absorbed into my scalp and I start the routine all over again
In the morning, I can't smell the scent of the oil, and if I scratch my scalp, my fingers don't get all oily. So I figure it's absorbed and did what it had to do. I think 24 hours is plenty of time for something to get absorbed into my scalp
