Oh, wow, that's just harsh!!! I'm so sorry it didn't work for you - ugh, that must have been a PAIN getting out!
Hey - you don't HAVE to use the baby food in your hair - it'll make a GREAT banana bread.
The Verdict....
(wet, co-washed hair after treatment)
ICK!!!!!!!
Traditional caramel treatments are not for me
I have dense 4a hair with fine strands that don't respond well to oils; I was light handed with the evoo & coconut oil, but I still ended up with rough, super tangled hair. To make it worse the shea butter coated my tresses beyond belief. I had to wash twice with a clarifying poo then condition, but the damage was done and my frizzy hair was super shrunken, un-defined, mildly greasy and still tangled.
For those looking to use this for moisture, if your hair doesn't respond well to oils tweak the recipe first. For those looking to use this as a texture "loosener" it DOES work, because it's so heavy, although I wish it hadn't loosened my s-patterned hair because the result is a mess.
I co-washed today & my hair is back to it's old self for the most part. I'm not going to give up on the caramel treatment all together, but I'll know for next time to ditch the shea butter,evoo & coconut oil and substitute castor oil & glycerin...gotta use up all this banana baby food somehow.
