Coffee,Tea,ACV,AVJ & Ayurvedic Challenge 2013

Lita

Evening Ms. Lita!:grin:

Yep.:yep: I agree. It's some good info for those of us that wonder what certain Herbs & Flowers do for our Hair, Scalp etc.......

I hope folks take the time to look at it. I just wish it wasn't on such a dark background.

Great info tho'. Can't wait to try some of their products.:lick:
 
I don't know if a Rhassoul clay treatment counts as Ayurveda, but I did this and mixed it with ACV and AVJ. Then brewed Burdock root/plantain leaves and Marshmallow root tea to also go into it.
 
@xu93texas

Are you using the Honeycomb w/Heat or w/o? How are you using it?

I still have some left. I was spritzing it on after cowashing then, under the dryer (no plastic cap) until hard.
 
Did a mid wash tea rinse with chamomile and eve oil, will use as I am leave in and put some trigger on my scalp...

The first two times I used the product, I followed the instructions on the bottle. I washed/co-washed, applied the product, under dryer for 20minutes, rinsed and followed with DC. Today, I CW and rinsed hair. I applied the product; massaged into hair/scalp; then applied DC and got under dryer for 30 minutes. It saved me extra time.

Do you think this product can be used as a daily spritz? I don't see anything in the ingredient list that would prohibit me from using it daily as my liquid for the LOC method.
 
@xu93texas

I wouldn't use it as a L-I. :nono:

I've always looked at it as a Protein/Reconstructive/Strengthening Rx (meant to be rinsed out).

I'd "Contact Us" on Komaza's Website and asked them. It Seems like it would dry you out.:perplexed

Come back and post what they say if you contact them.:yep:

ETA: Lemme go look at the ingredients
 
@IDareT'sHair,

I think you're right. I won't use as a leave in. I'm just waiting on my Darcy Botanicals order to arrive. I ordered the Daily leave-in herbal spritz. I've been using dd braid spray as a back up until my order arrives.
 
Used jar of joe to moisturize on wet hair because my hair needed a pick me up and my hair dried soft and fluffy... I LOVE this stuff! I'm all about instant staples and this...right here! Takes the cake! Thank you IDareT'sHair for suggesting this to me!
 
I washed & conditioned and instead of doing a AVJ rinse, I just squirted it on my scalp & hair and left it on (in a rush) but I am counting it...lol. Now TBH I need to look up how ppl have been rinsing with it. It's kinda difficult right now cause I'm keeping my hair mostly straightened for the winter but this week I'm not flat ironing so I'm gonna be a rinsing fool. I'm gonna try to do at least 3 rinses this week.

ETA:
IDareT'sHair thanks for that article! I'm gonna make a cinnamon, green tea & AVJ mix and apply it to my scalp or rinse it nightly and see how that goes.

Sitting right now with vatika oil and in about 2 hours I will do a much needed ayur paste. I just ran some fenugreek thru my coffee pot for the first time bc I hate using it in my pastes, way too grainy. So instead of water I will use the fenugreek rinse as my base and mix in a few powders - not sure what combo I will be using yet tho :scratchch
 
Brewed some tea and herbs today, will be used for a final rinse and for spritzing hair all week

Burdock roots
Catnip
Stingling nettle tea
Sage
Lavender flowers
Horsetail
Earl grey black tea

Cowashed with coffee/tea/oil rinsed and leave in rinse of tea/avj.

Currently brewing a batch of my leave in brew (for a couple hours): roobois, fenugreek, marshmallow root, slippery elm, malva, moringa, lemongrass, irish moss and rose petal.

Next up I will brew my rinse blend overnight of: bhringaraj, nettle , saw palmetto, lavendar, horsetail, rosehip, catnip, peppermint.

One of these days I'm going to portion out my brews to make it easy when it's time to make a new batch. Afterall I don't stray from my mixes:look:
 
I decided to mix my fenugreek tea with brahmi and bhringaraj powders and a bit of tresemme naturals for consistency. The wash out wasn't so bad but the application is the reason why I remember I don't like to do pastes...too messy! I think I will brew the rest of my ayur powders and use them as rinses or just mix 1-2 tablespoons in my cowashes.

After I washed the paste out, I DC'd on top of more fenugreek tea (trying to finish it up), moisturized, and sealed with my homemade amla oil.
 
I made some cinnamon tea, added some green tea to it and some aloe vera juice. I applied it to my scalp only cause i was too tired to do a full rinse...maybe tomorrow? The cinnamon smells great :yep:
 
I bought some burdock root and hibiscus tea for my tea rinses and I am excited to use those when I am feeling a little better.
 
Did an ayur-tea rinse this morning and cowashed with vo5 Free Me Freesia conditioner. I am in need of a good protein deep treatment soI will do that on my next day off which is Wednesday.
