Co-Wash Quick List

[trinidarkie1]

Hello Ladies!
I'm back on the Co-Washing regimen. My last was 13 weeks ago *yay*
Thinking about transitioning and my time frame is 18 months. At that point I'd either go back to relaxing or do the Big Chop.
However, my issue has always been rentention of the hair.
One part of the problem has been solved recently in that, I got a trim after *whispers* 3 years. Yes, Yes, I haven't had a professional trim in about that time. Bad trinidarkie! I know!erplexed

Anyhoo, I'm buying a lacefront so I can 'hide' up my hair for the next 18 months and I would like to focus on growth.
I can't do internal products just yet e.g. extra vitamins and supplements, so I have to do only topical products for now.

For some reason the ORS Conditioner is not a good product for me any more. It makes my hair feel like wax and makes it feel stringy and stretchy to the point that I am afraid to comb it.

I've used the Neutrogena Triple Moisture with the ORange cover and that works, but some times it just makes my hair feel bleh!

Please suggest a list of inexpensive deep co-s and a possible regimen that I can use for my hair so I can see some results, keep my hair moisturized and retain the length of my hair.

I trust u ladies! So I am excited to hear your suggestions.

I recently purchased elasta-qp dpr 11 and I use some olive oile with it, sit under the dryer for about 30 minutes, rinse out, and my hair is super soft and manageable.

Thanks. the dryer and I fight a lot, so I generally wear a foil cap and walk around the house for a few hours, lol.
I've Used Elasta QP products in the past as well.

Pantene Time Renewal Replenishing Mask...stay away if you are anti-cone though. But for me it makes my hair like BUTTA!

I still stan for the Pantene R& N mask for DC. As for regular cw I love V05 tea therapy and the Strawberry Silk and Champagne. I don't like the Strawberry and Cream. I also use the Loreal Vive Pro Nutrigloss and Hydragloss. They are my staples now.

Thanks for the list ladies
I bought Aussie Moist, VO5 Moisture Milks Fresia (something like that), Tresemme Moisture Milk,
There must be a LHCF board member living in my neighbourhood because there were hardly any conditioners that you guys listed on the shelves at my CVS.
